Did someone say Little Jimmy? He had a great time at his first concert! You should have seen the huge smile on his face! Cute little guy passed out in the back seat of the car on the ride home. It was soooo adorable! :z :wub: It's a day Little Jimmy will never ever forget!

I think the reason why Al has the horrified look on his face is because Little Jimmy just got done taking a nice crap in the floor right before the picture was taken.

D'awwwww. What a precious memory. And it was so nice of the venue to let him in without a ticket! I mean, they didn't say a word about it. You should post that picture of Little Jimmy all excited, sitting in his chair waiting for the show to start.

Last night was awesome, yeah. :ttr:

Due to scheduling conflicts in 2012 last night was my 1st and only show of the current tour compared to last year when i went 6 times at wesbury in long island.

anyway i also had also purchased the meet & greet from Live nation and while i was disapointed in them im ok with how it turned out. I met al in the afternoon when he happened to step outside before the sound check.

What i cant stand about live nation is how they lie and screw people all the time. the meet & greet they knew about it for 3 months or whenever the tickets went on sale as i called the venue the day i got the tickets & a guy named greg radin confirmed the meet & greet was real. it wasnt any extra fee as regular seats were also 74.00 and so was the meet & greet. it sounded like al might just being trying something new. in other words why did westbury have ticketmaster or live nation email people at 3:34 the day of the show which is when the email came. i was long gone from home so i had no idea this had happened until 5 pm when i found out from the box office about the glitch.

their attitude at the box office was quite nasty to me and another few people who were in line with me. anyway to add insult to injury my seat was behind the stage like a side stage view but i paid for a full view ticket. the venue again refused to help me and since i already had been duped in july paying 450.00 for 1st row center for the beach boys at the pnc arts center and that seat was obstructed by a tv camera i can see this is all live nation does which is lie and screw people over.

but i commend the security guard / usher who helped me inside the venue. he said once the show starts if u see an empty seat just move to it and if someone else comes of course ill have to move. that seat ended up being 4th row center on the aisle of section E so it worked out but not without aggravation and its a 2 hour drive to come to long island from NJ. the bottom line is i wont go out of my way to ever go back to westbury as their staff have a pompass ass attitude. al and his people are nice as always. i got to speak to bermuda before the show and hes 1 of the most stand up guys i have ever met in the music industry!

the show was more or less the same as last yr which i loved. but i also loved a lot of new interviews i hadnt seen in the 2011 leg of the tour.

well time to prepare for the book signing on monday. cheers all.

Since R-Truth was in Egypt last week, he left me to take care of Little Jimmy. I wasn't sure how to entertain him, but then I thought I would take him to a concert. He liked the idea, so we went to go see Weird Al at the Westbury Music Fair in Westbury, NY on Thursday.

Before the concert we went to Five Guys in Hicksville.

Little Jimmy in his seat before the concert. He was so excited, he could barely sit still!

I had a backstage pass, so I decided to take Little Jimmy back as my guest. He was a little shy, but soon he warmed up and took a picture with Weird Al. Though Al wasn't so sure...

Little Jimmy had a great time at the concert. You should have seen the smile on his face! It was so cute, the little guy fell asleep in the back seat of the car on the ride home. He tried so hard to stay awake, what a trooper!

Anyway, I will be returning Little Jimmy to R-Truth in time for RAW, but I thank him for the opportunity to hang out with Little Jimmy. It was a weekend I will never forget.

I can't believe how excited he was, though I could've done without him kicking my seat on the way back home. And him stealing my fries at Five Guys.
