What a score! Courtesy of work, my buddy won an all expenses paid trip to LA for 4 days for 2! And I'm his +1.

We're getting a helicopter ride over the city and a tour around Hollywood.

Aww yeah!!!

We'll be staying here http://www.graftononsunset.com/index.php

Your his +1, huh? That's quite a gift. Will this "buddy" be expecting "benefits"

Oh thank God. Funny thing about the internet, sarcasm and humor don't always come across . I hope y'all have a great time!


EDIT: Man, I almost got to use my West Hollywood joke, but it just went out the window. Aw, screw it.

You gotta be careful when you go out there. Momma always said, their women are like a box of chocolates.

Some of 'em got nutz

I played the most awesome club Ive ever played, and it just so happened to be in West Hollywood. It was this place called Eleven, that sometimes functions as a gay bar, but this particular night was 'variety night' (hehe) and we opened the show on this awesome stage that is set above the door. You walk in to the bar, face the door, and awesome! The other act that nightwas this rad Electro/Dance band called Fat Magic, who hail from Austria. Had a good chat with both members, including the hot Austrian chick, afterwards.
