San Francisco? you must hear this! Kids-- us got brand new drivers licenses- drove all the way to San Francisco non-stop Knob Hill we lighted cigars- looked and drove back. Fantastic!
It always cracks me up, "What is the relevance of today's date?", as if they genuinely were not aware of it. The press conference was held on exactly the same day The Beatles arrived at JFK 20 years prior. Don't tell me that wasn't a deliberate move from their management team to make a point. =)
You must be very young. In 1993 (I was 18) I traveled to the U.S. and I was smoking in the plane. Shortly after than the bans (thankfully) begun. Eventually I quit of course and it's the best thing I've done for myself :)
I miss the days of band press conferences. Now, the artists post to their Instagram and Twitter pages. It's so much less interesting. And much less entertaining. When Nikki Minaj or Cardi B post naked photos to their social media, it's really disgusting. It leaves nothing to the imagination, let alone they are talentless hacks. The days of celebs/musicians doing this kind of interview are long gone. I only hope new fans research this music and push it forward
I loathe the way they treated Andy. They should be ashamed.Af ter all,he did come back a few years ago and did the album astronaut with them. He may have had to leave,especially if he had other jobs,possibly as a producer lined up.
