The Eery Similarity Between Ba7 and the Most Famous Rock and Roll Singer of All Time
This picture spooked me a bit. I never realized how similar Babay looked to his idol – Elvis. This was taken at the famous Elvis Statue on Hollywood Blvd.
The Cults Burn Down San Diego with Awesomeness and We Didn’t Need No Water So We Let the MotherF’r Burn.
Maddie and The Cults were back in town for a show at the 91X street festival in North Park. And boy was it wild. By the end of the night, even Mom had to throw up in the streets. Now thats a Party.
Before the show kicked off, the promoter asked Geno to help announce The Cults. Imagine that, little Geno in front of thousands of people announcing The Cults!
But he said, “No, I have to practice my football stance”, and he went back to the parking lot and ran some football drills which I must say he nailed.
For the third time, in as many years, I found myself backstage, and onstage with the Cults living my dreams vicariously though Maddie.
There I was. Like the 5th Beatle. At one point, I almost grabbed the Mic and yelled. “HELLLLLOOOO SAN DIEEEEEGOOOO, CAN I HEAR YOU SCREAM!”. But I had my camera. And quietly too shots from afar..And it was fantastic.
Of course Maddie looked beautiful and the whole band sounded great. Danny watched from the backstage, and you could just see the pride shining through.
And my beautiful Tu , looked beautiful too, as she toddled on her Two Tone, iPhone.
And the fans went crazy. Just crazy for the Cults.
And the after party. Lets not even talk about what a Gala Affair that turned out to be. Because it was wild and went on until the wee hours of the semi-early evening (about 9:45 or so). If you want to see a few more pictures hop over the link – The Cults Burn Down San Diego.
Have a Bitchin Night
Vinh, hanging out in front of a beach mural, thinking to himself, “Americans are crazy.”
The Wall
He will go toe to toe with the biggest defensive lineman, and if necessary body slam them to the ground. He tries to be gentle but thats like trying to put a full Level 5 Hurricane in a ketchup bottle. Things just get ugly real fast if you try to take him on.
After decimating opponents he will generally walk humbly away. As pictured here, this appears to be the case. Unfortunately his superhuman hitting ability is a bit overwhelming.
It reminds me a bit of many of the scenes from the original Incredible Hulk when the Hulk would Hulk Out and pretty much obliterate anyone in his path.
He managed to get a bit of a handsome break during half-time and as you can see here managed to put on the football hero look. I did notice the cheerleaders giving him the eye as he walked by.
I must say, seeing that big “McKenna” on his jersey was a big source of pride since we have always been more folksy soccer folk and the like and not the manly man type like Geno.
If you want to check out the gallery of the kid that NFL scouts refer to as “The Wall” or as “Roach” because he never says die check out his gallery here – Geno is The Wall.
