Hello Children of the Popcorn, my name is Brody. Some call me Steven, others “Brode”.  A few will even text me. Get it?? It’s based on the word “call”.   Next sentence I shifted to the word “text” to throw you off, hence the non-laugh.

Trust me, a crowd will react to material such as this, but you must be committed to look, act, move and sound like me.  Also back it up with a bio like no other! (Yes, I’ve worked with the guy from Street Smarts)

Bottom line, don’t.  Stick to what got you a house, car, child and wonderful woman.

Let’s chat while I’m in the lobby here in Bellevue surrounded by a large group of Phillipino travelers.   I love those from Manilla, so nice and happy.   It’s fun to be down here blogging, buoyed by the spirit and joy conveyed through the language of pigeon.

So I’m up here for a wedding, my cousin Leslie is all grown up  I remember the night she was born, 1979 during the MLB All-Star game, which was played in Seattle.  I could be wrong, but I think I’m right, I know baseball!  Pete Rose had his uniform or hat stolen, think he played with a Mariner’s helmet?  I could be wrong? Why don’t U prove it??!!

Ok, time for more coffee and pastry, brb…. (but you get to see the first draft!)

Got what I needed….

Rise Against and Rancid in town Monday (yes, still in the city of Seattle).  Playing the famed WaMu hall between Safeco and Qwest fields (homes of the Mariners and Seahawks).  Basically right on the spot of the former Kingdome, where the Seattle Supersonics played hoop for a number of years.

The Kingdome looked like Mt. Rainier.  Was it designed with that in mind?  I think so.  Never ever crossed my MIND and I lived in Jet City for three years, influenced heavily by caffiene and clouds.

Ticket and backstage?? Somebody make this happen! I wanna rock like a razor, Straight Edge in the pit!!

This will conclude Part One, check back in a few for Part Two.
