Day 774 (07/05/09) Where Is Double R?
We started the show off at a few disadvantages...first of all...BJ went tot he ocean, and got screwed by the pollen...his voice was shot this morning...and to make matters worse...Double R was a no show. We have no idea why, all we know is that every year he goes to Lake Cavanaugh, and every year he injures himself while there...Lucas wrote us with a good theory:
Double R is probably arrested for causing the wild fire at lake cav., they say it was caused by fireworks.
We wound discussing what the excuse would be from Double R when he finally does contact us, so we decided to take calls from listeners on what they thought the excuse was:
Ed – Overslept…too drunk.
Dan – Fighting the fire.
Jay & Mike -- He is in Cali getting Michael Jackson tickets.
Darren – Locked out of the cabin
Jeremy – Something with the power outage.
Kevin – Hit by firework (hand & back), stuck in bed & couldn’t call.
Matt – Thinks he has a day off
Mark – something that requires medical attention.
Kurt – He bad reaction from putting that cream on his junk on Thursdays show.
Canuck Curt -- He was at Lake Chelan, and his boat got seized by pirates. They asked him borrow some smokes, so he broke out the weed... and they are all still sleeping in the middle of the lake.
Mike -- he got caught meat gazing and now some of those backwoods cops are having there way with him, deliverance style
James – Got arrested for being too wasted.
Sven -- My guess is he will say that the only road down from the cabin was closed due to the fire. Which we all know he started.
Carmack -- He went swimming in Tulalip and the tribe harpooned him.
Tim -- he was drunk and caused there boat on the lake to roll over….. Thus caused the car keys to sink and the cell phones to short out!
This morning we talked about the Green Day show...I know I say this a lot, but this was one of the best shows I have ever been to. I have seen Green day 6 or 7 times, and this one was the best one yet...and they are always great! The highlight of the show was when they pulled a 16 year old kid out of the crowd to play the 9 minute epic song "Jesus Of Suburbia" with them...Billie Joe Armstrong let the kid use his guitar, and the kid nailed it. his name is Kamran Imran, and we had him on this morning to talk about his experience. Here are some of the highlights:
He isn't from Seattle...from California...flew out to see this show.
This was his first Green Day Concert.
After they finished the song, drummer Tre Cool let him watch the next song from behind his drum set & gave him drum sticks.
After that he was able to stand to the side of the stage and watched the rest of the show from there.
After the show the rest of the band hung with him & took pictures.
They gave him a bunch of used guitar picks from bassist Mike Dirnt and Billie Joe.
Some girl offered him a “quickie “
He got invited to the after party
Green Day's manager told him that the band thought he was the best person they’ve ever pulled up on stage & the band couldn't stop talking about that after the show.
Here is the performance:
