Spearhead Sighting

Spearhead - Band Stuff - SFO

After I had helped my fare up to the curbside check-in at the San Francisco airport, I was walking back to the taxi when I spotted them. Them being music cases. The kind of cases that say, "real band."

The real band was Spearhead. I asked Michael Franti where their next performance would be, and he said that they were off to Asheville, North Carolina.

SPEARHEAD

My photo does not show if he is wearing flip-flops or not, and I don't remember.

Driving cab does have its moments.

Bands met while driving cab.

One night I was at SFO to do a pick up, and who should I run in to around 9:45pm? Tommy Lee! He and his bodyguard were up on the 5th floor parking level at United Airlines. He was talking to his driver about a club called "Crash" I was able to get two photos before they left. I wish I could have asked him about Supernova but I ran out of time.

The only time he wears shoes is when flying. Because they require it.
But - you cant go through the security screen without taking your shoes off. Which he dosnt wear, except to fly...

I just herd that. Saw them in PDX a little while ago. I almost cried. And i dont cry!!

About

I got my first computer early in the Summer of 2004, and began blogging almost immediately. Thanks to blogging I have been a part of several newspapers and online blogs. By that August I was featured in the lead story of the Tech Section in the San José Mercury News. Then what a pleasant surprise it was to find that my blog, "Taxi Vignettes" was the reason I was chosen as the best local blogger of the year (2006) by the Metro Newspaper. Fall of '06, I was contacted by a reporter, asking if I would be willing to be the topic of her next story in The Willow Glen Resident. It was a cool two pages including photos. Am I having fun yet?
