So eariler I was hanging with Edie on the beach after she worked for a few hours. There was a guy next to me with a girl. I said hi to him and he was
friendly we talked. He did not know I knew he was a rock star. I just talked to him as a human and he enjoyed it. His name is Ed and he is playing a
concert tonight in Santa Barbara. I knew this because I like his band and I knew they were playing with the Goo Goo Dolls.
The man was very humble and full of ideas. After one hour he had to leave. I shook his hand and said good luck tonight.
He said thank you for not making a big deal that I was here. I am just a human musician and it's how I make money. He invited us back stage to his
show but I declined. Here is a video of His band.

I've met quite a few people from big bands like that. They get people coming up after concerts saying "you're god!" and they just look so embarrassed.
I don't treat them any different than anyone else and they seem to like that.
I know, working with actors and people are like your God they just want to hide in a flower pot. They just wanted to be treated like humans. But this
world is so hyped up on a famous person it hard lol. He would have like you too for treating him like a human doing his job.
Right it bugs a person. I would go crazy too after a while. At first it might be cool but now he has been around for a long time his like just let me
sing. Edie and I read something you wrote. We are halfway. It's beyond good!

Thank you. I've never written anything like it and didn't know if it was any good or not.
I know one guy who's famous and isn't a bit humble. Ted Nugent. He lives in Michigan. Everybody I know who's encountered him about town says he's a
dick. One guy was getting shoes. He turns around and there's Ted. Ted's says, "What? Do you want an autograph too?" The guy says, "I don't even know
who you are." Ted got all offended and says, "I'm Ted Nugent." The guy says, "That's nice. I'm just getting shoes" and walks off lol. Ted owns a store
in Michigan and wanted my mom to sell the stuff she makes in it. She said no.
Your screenplay is amazing. It's the best because it just came to you. I know the feeling but can't describe it. Edie and I are going to finish
reading your magic by tomorrow!

A lot of that actually came from real life. The thing in the car near the end, for example. That was a hell of a ride home, stinky. We were so drunk
we don't remember how we got clean clothes. I think we were standing around in our undies while our clothes washed lol.
Ted used to live in Concord. He had a huge fence around his house with cameras everywhere. This was back in 2004.

I heard it once. I wasn't impressed. He also had a hunting show. The only time I saw him was when he was with Damn Yankees. While I like that band, I
was there to see Poison. It was their Flesh and Blood tour. I think Firehouse was there. Those guys are nice.
