AFTER SCHOOL ACTIVITIES...
When I'm not in the studio or a some station event.... I like snowboarding, started with Chris and Kramer at the X Games in Aspen and have been working on that, falling down a lot at progressively faster speeds. I DJ all the Colorado Eagles Games which is a blast, I play lots of Frolf (Frisbee Golf for you non Sinefeld fans) in the summer, camping is a must if you live in Colorado. I'm a licensed pilot. I constantly add to my digital music collection, that takes up a lot of time and eye strain which I like to work out sitting on the lawn, drinking beer and grilling. When I'm not doing any of the above I probably end up watching TV...who doesn�t.
TV...
The Office, Daily Show, Entourage, Sinefeld, 24, The Shield, King of The Hill, Simpson�s, Blind Date, Law and Order (yeah I'm one of those people).
MUSIC...
Everything on the radio station of course. I'm a huge Jimmy Buffett fan, Jack's Mannequin, Wilco, John Mayer, Tom Petty, Bob Marley, Sublime, Alkaline Trio, Green Day, Biggy, Tribe Called Quest, Lupe Fiasco, Dre, Snoop, Gangstarr, DMB but not like Kramer, Zeppilin, Maroon 5, Eve 6, All Texas Country Music...The Great Divide, Pat Green, Randy Rodgers, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Reckless Kelly, Chris and I are both big Robert Earl Keen fans as well. Too many other to list...
BOOKS...
Lots of travel diaries..."Dark Star of Africa" by Paul Theroux, "Fate is The Hunter" by Ernest Gann. But usually it's magazines...The Onion, The Week (best news brief ever and super interesting), Rolling Stone, Blender, Wikipedia and Wikitravel can kill some time when you only have a computer.
MOVIES...
I have a short attention span, Anchorman was sweet or anything with Zombies.
FOOD...
(no one else has a food section so I'm startin� it!)
Hot Sauce...I kind of have a hot sauce problem, I really love the stuff, all kinds on basically every kind of food, I even carry a little bottle of Tabasco in my car, and I am subjected to constant hot sauce opression in restraunts and the jock lounge. It might have something to do with me being from New Mexico and eating all that spicy food at a young age.
Beer - is delicious and liking it in Northern Colorado makes it even better, the microbrew capitol of the world baby!! But recently I have been drinking some sloppily prepared homebrew concocted by my roommates and myself. It tastes like beer and gets the job done, it just doesn't taste like good beer, but we're getting better. Aside from that it�s been Odell's IPA and Cuervo shots with the Kiss crew.. Watchout when that starts.
Hooters across the parking lot with Big Rob, "yeah yeah hooters".
BON JOVI: Sambora On Edge
Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora is feeling a little bit on edge -- after Jon Bon Jovi made a snide comment about the differences between him and U2guitarist The Edge.
Jon appeared on Ellen and spoke about Sambora's sitting out the band's current tour for personal reasons, saying, “Life goes on, so if someone chooses not to be here…unlike if this were, God forbid, The Edge, and he for some reason couldn’t make a U2 show, [then] it would be very difficult to just step in.”
A source tells Radar Online that Sambora was livid and fired off a three-word E-mail reading, "Hire The Edge."
The insider says, “Richie was so pissed off and insulted with the Edge comment that he couldn’t bite his tongue any longer. He sent Jon an E-mail, but Jon did not respond. Jon hasn’t called Richie once since this all began."
PEARL JAM: Argo Play For Yourself!
