response: Who is everyone? I didn't talk to one person that was disappointed after the show. I am honored though, that you can speak for everyone. It must be nice to be a great wide reciever and the Pope.

quote: Richard Buckner's set was far too short.
response: That was his call, get over it.

quote: Too few solo songs.
response: I agree. But MCMF wasn't about Jay, it was a charity event.

quote: And then there was the new Son Volt lineup. (blah, blah, blah)
response: Get over yourself, it ain't about you. Brad's from Indiana, he's as down home as they come. He just wants to rock.

quote: When I saw the video cameras, it all came together...a few made-for-Top-40 songs/videos and a new look. It was sickening. Half of my group left at that point.
response: You couldn't have missed my cameras when you walked in. I had six of them there. You should have left then. You have no idea what we were there for or what we were shooting for. Top-40 songs????? Did you even listen to the new stuff? I don't do MTV. I'm sorry half your group left, they missed a helluva windup.

quote:I'll take a lot of heat on this forum for my comments, but they're all true.
response: No, they're your opinions, they have no basis in fact. They're your emotional response to a concert. Again, sorry the night wasn't all about you. Jay had a great time and raised a lot of money for some worthy causes.

Anders did a great set, I liked him a lot more with a band. Chick bass players are uber-cool. So is an all girl camera crew.

quote: "Be careful where you lay down, boy..."
response: Heed your own advice.

peace,

PS - This time, I only kissed Jay's mom.

I've got a lot of work to do, don't bother me.

advice: country snap 'em up shirts are normally a guar-an-tee there will be some kissin' goin' on don't ya know.....

Evidence that Conrad Dobler and Jay Ferrar are one in the same can be found in this excerpt of Conrad's work:

"I like tits. If women had three, it would be even better. "

I wonder if Jay and Conrad Dobler are really the same person! That jacket looks familiar to both. But I don't remember Jay ever having a Fu Manchu.

Jim Hart rocked.

There, I said it.

I knew that show was nothing but a marketing vehicle for something like this:

“Here Lies Conrad Dobler, Gone But Not Forgotten.”

Conrad Dobler would be an excellent name for a band. Thanks, saratoga jay. He was evil.

edit to add: You should hear the story about the time Brad wore stripes.

cheers

Have you been to JC Penney lately? They have a line of clothing called none other than J. Ferrar. I swear it. Perhaps Jay is trying to bling it with P Diddy?

I would take neverwonagrammy over Brad Rice any day...even if he showed up in a skin-tight shirt playing an Eddie Van Halen model geetar.

Where's Jim Hart when we need him?

His style was more akin to a gay person, on drugs, at a New York Dolls concert.
Brad Rice was the greatest buck dancer of all, He was so good, and INTO it, he actually shook his skin tight pants down. It was then I saw his Woody Guthrie tattoo peeking out from his flannel underwear.
Brian
P.S. That was Jay's bass. Ace Frehley is Jay's favorite bass player...

Oh god thats hilarious. Brian you rule.

If Jay read this I believe he would play Chickamauga and kill the entire town you live in. He has REAL ULTIMATE POWER!!!!

Our favourite inside reporter Brian Henneman continues to

First Jay B really likes teh buttsex, and now this? Getting your toenails dried is a real pain in the ass though, you gotta admire Jay for bothering.
