Amazing show tonight, i danced a little and enjoyed the new songs and how they were received by the crowd, all 11,000 of them so i hear. We went on stage in day light and ended our show in the darkness, perfect, follow that. Back stage so many old friends to see it was so great, the long night passed by and the eight hour bus journey sunk like a stone into the sushi there on the table. Its been many years now and the more i see it from here the more i feel it from here and the respect is so nourishing, it will last a lifetime. Back stage the crew as ever are amazing, grace is busy all the time looking after us all, Bam is great with the guitars and the two of them get on really well. LA is now in the past, we head off now to the mountains. I enjoyed the brief stay at the Sunset, its a hotel with so much history, back to our first tour in 79. Good food, nice beds and all the trimmings. Memories of Gilson and the good old days. No rain man tonight but an interview about bad acid trips for a film being made, not sure who by. I remembered the tent on the cliffs in Hastings, the tubes of glitter and the boy with the baked beans on his mouth. I guess you had to be there. Im being here today and it suits me fine although i miss Louise, its a tough week for her and im never there when she needs me, this will change. Its like being in the merchant navy. In the bunk, in the bus, all at sea. And thank you Steve for the best lunch of the tour, god bless you sir!
