My favorite Van Halen song is about an ice cream man, who is also David Lee Roth, who seemingly fucks all the women on his ice cream route and possibly sells ice cream and while this is slightly entertaining I’m not sure it’s “required reading” for teens these days.

If a music venue going vaxx only is bumming you out, & you’re somehow not a lunatic, it’s not only a health risk for everyone involved w/ non vaxx being there, 1 positive Covid tour member literally can shut the entire tour down for weeks canceling jobs for 100’s to many 1000’s

Instead of making our rider more elaborate as the show budgets grow over the years we instead just add more chips and salsa until we spend it all. We’re up to like 50 bags of chips and 60 bottles of salsa. I’m not going to lie, it was a bad decision to do this.
