Nasty Habits Ken --

I am really thinking about going to Nashville. Was going to make Atlanta but I think I've got other commitments. We'll see.

It was a spectacular time - well organized and hosted, and meeting all the crazy Stones people was a genuine pleasure. You are one righteous dude who goes above and beyond the call.

I have to tell this story -- Ken gets everybody who needs to the shows into the shows. After finding a scalped seat to the arena for a delightful female fan from Brazil and dickering the price down below face, he and I were walking around, talking to drunk female Stonesdoug lurkers, having a good time, when the Brazil lady comes out from the arena, scared and panicked. She'd brought a camera into the venue, had been kicked out (ticket not scanned yet), and there was no place to stash it as our busses had taken off. Ken calmly put his arm around her and explained that she'd still get in, but that they'd just go in through another door. When he escorted her through a door around the other side of the arena, she got searched again. The woman looking asked her, "Is that a camera?" And Ken says, "NO." So they let her in! Too fuckin' fearless!

Really, it was the example Ken set that inspired me to pull my Tower sting.
