Hey Jenn …

September 20th, 2002

Hey Jenn,

Thanks a lot.

I’ve been spending the last few days getting ready for my interview with Bob Geldof. Geldof was the frontman for the boomtown rats and is the guy who created “Live Aid”. The concert designed to raise money for famine relief Live Aid is also the concert that truly launched U2 on the world and bob has been the architect of socially conscious and politically active music for a long time. The funny thing is that during the interview Geldof admitted to inventing the hit show “Survivor“. He said he was watching TV one night and thought it was boring so him and a couple of friends decided to make a fun show… the end result was Survivor. bizarre.


also,

I’m reading this book called “Easy Riders, Raging Bulls“. It’s about Hollywood during the seventies. It tells the stories of the making of some of the greatest films of our time… and how they almost never got made. “Sex, drugs, rock n roll, ego, cheating, ego and sex” did I mention drugs? Just a nightmare of a story that whipped up incredible art.

Bgood,

Let’s send it to the Shouldice.
