dirtyden ok gazza unpack the case tomorrow......we all want to know the gossip....did you really meet anita ???
27th August 2007 03:10 PM
Gazza No. I didnt say that I did. Just saw her getting her dinner etc. A hello from Charlie (for the 3rd time this summer in 3 different countries..LOL) and a nod from Jade on my way back from the crapper, and that was it. I didnt really want to bother anyone, it was just nice to watch everyone go in and out.

Saw most of the backing musicians and various kids and assorted family members

L'wren Scott is the tallest woman I've ever seen in my life, then again women's basketball isnt popular here. She walked right past me with about 6-7 other people and absolutely towered over every one of them. It was like something out of Gulliver's Travels. What is she - 6'4? And she was wearing flat shoes!

The legend that is Rockman (from Down Under) got to meet Anita though - and later on, Keith himself.

Rockman is so cool that he has got compilation cdrs to Keith in the past (did so again this week). Keith even thanked him for it from the stage at one of the Aussie Voodoo Lounge shows. Keith's bodyguard even told him that after Keith got his CDR the other night, they were listening to it in the car on the way back to the hotel.

Paulywaul and Beast had 4 passes for Tuesday and Sunday's shows (Pauly had made some contacts as he bought some of Ronnie's artwork and one guy provided him with passes) and they very kindly offered me one when we were in Madrid.

I actually turned it down at first as I felt a bit bad about accepting it when sitting with two other people who werent getting in, but I was talked around....

I'd something similar in Paris in 1995, although it wasnt called the Rattlesnake Inn back then....plus myself and a few fellow attendees were bestowed VIP passes for Twickers #2 and Glasgow last year which was also very nice.

There wasnt a menu, but a buffet. There was a huge and very diverse spread of food. You just helped yourself.

Drinks? They had a bar and you just ordered what you want.

All gratis of course.

Jumping Jack The Rattlesnake is like getting stopped by a cop when you are really pissed and trying to act like everything is OK. All I could think of is be cool and don't make a fool of yourself. I was feeling very good coming out of the pre-party and had no idea what the hand of fate had in store at Churchill Downs, but a random act of kindness by Mr. Cohl and poof, there we were. All the temptations including excellent food, open bar, and dozens of interesting people. One part of me says hell yes, let's get this party going and the other part of me says, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, don't fuck up and get thrown out, LOL. I must say I had a helluva time and behaved like an angel, albiet a drunken and stuffed angel, LOL!

Congrats Gazza, it couldn't have happened to a more deserving gentlemen. Stones karma works in mysterious ways.

28th August 2007 07:30 AM
glencar I ended up at the Rattlesnake Inn in 2002 at Las Vegas. I think so, anyway. I was kinda trashed! I played it cool like JJF says but Blondie Chaplin acted like a fool.
