Rock & Roll nights in Los Angeles, California. A high octane fictionalized memoir presenting an eye-popping peek backstage, behind the scenes at the hottest rock club in the world, written by internationally recognized music journalist Jim Esposito, who Grace Slick called "like the weirdest guy I ever met." "I always loved music. In high school, it was all me and my friends talked about - aside from sex, drugs, sex, drinking, sex, cars, and sex. I'd heard A LOT of music since then. Yet here I was in a smoky barroom, a band on stage, drink in one hand, a nose full of coke. Pity I didn't have any pot, make the roll call complete. A crazy business. But what would you expect from an industry based, ultimately, on musicians?" Listening, I had one of those peak experience flashes. Surrounded by the hustle and bustle of a rock 'n roll show, it was a defining moment, a flash of karmic clarity, when you had to stop, right in the middle of the trivial details you get caught up in, think: "Yes THIS is WHY I do it " Nobody could ever take this away from me. No matter where I went or what I did, I was here, in this moment, at this place. Nine-to-fivers could kiss my ass. Rock 'n Roll, baby Chapter One There was going to be a video shoot, but I didn't know until I showed up for work at The Club that night. Getting off the freeway at Sunset I drove past the front of The Club so I could check out the line, like I always do. It was early so there were only 10 or 15 harmless looking kids grouped around the front door. Which figured. Huey Lewis & The News were playing; they drew a clean pop crowd. In addition, their record company bought a couple hundred seats. Those folks probably wouldn't start to arrive until the opening act was off. Then I turned the corner into the parking lot, saw three video vans parked behind the building. Cursing, I knew what that meant: I'd be short-handed. I'd need an extra man backstage, two more on the floor, nurse-maiding camera crews. I'd have to make a rush call to Contempo, the security company from who we contracted men when needed. My boss, Garrett, wouldn't like that, since they were more expensive than using our own crew, but expecting a well-behaved crowd I'd given two of my men the night off. And nobody had told me nothing about no video shoot. Parking, I walked in through backstage, stepping between local neighborhood teenybops who always hung around the door, peeking in, hoping to catch a glimpse of the stars or something. They knew better than to enter. If they did, they'd be raw meat for the stage crew (who were like heavily into territorial). Inside I found the usual pre-video bedlam - a bunch of strangers with headsets running cables around, arguing about everything and acting like they owned the place while our stage crew quietly saved their ass. I looked for Snuffy, our stage manager. Didn't see him, but I nodded greetings with The Doctor, my backstage guard and chief hostility depressant. My "Anesthesiologist." He was big and he was black, and he could do that Bad Mother routine like you would not believe. People rushing past with equipment, I exchanged hellos with Vince, our sound man, and Duquette (Bird Man of the Lights) as he and a spot operator hurried by with a ladder when I was suddenly confronted by an officious gay guy with a clipboard and walkie-talkie, approaching with the patronizing air of a head waiter in a West Hollywood bistro. "Excuse me..." he sneered in a prissy attempt at intimidation, "but this is a restricted area. You don't have a pass. You have to go." "I don't need a pass," I explained. "I'm Head of Security." Looking me up and down, he did not appear impressed. I don't know what the Head of Security at a rock 'n roll club is supposed to look like, but nobody ever seemed to think one should look like me.

FLYAWAY PRODUCTIONS and the TENDERLOIN MUSEUM Presented TENDER (n.): a person who takes charge-- A site-specific dance celebrating 100 years of outcast activism in the Tenderloin. Tender ran June 7 - 16, 2018 at the Cadillac Hotel, located at 380 Eddy Street. All performances were free, as was admission to the Tenderloin Museum, located on the ground floor of the Cadillac Hotel, after each performance. Tender celebrates the outcasts who, defying convention, have served as activists in pursuit of a desirable place to live and thrive. In Tender, Flyaway Productions distilled a century of San Francisco's history into four parts, each representing a new wave of activism in the Tenderloin. The In and Above the Street Residency included 10 free performances, 8 open rehearsals, 2 curbside conversations, lectures at the Tenderloin and Asian Art Museum, and a walking tour of the neighborhood.
S.N.A.P. "GOD IS ABOUT TO DO HIS Thing" (Armageddon & Haymengog - 7-7-7) coincides with my first book "Spiritually Circumcise Your Heart and Mind" and my second book "Four Horns that Control this Earth Age." The acronym (S.N.A.P.) stands for Satan's Not About People; I use this because all Satan wants is as many Souls to join him in the Lake of Fire right after the final judgment of God and then Eternity begins. In addition, "GOD IS ABOUT TO DO HIS THING" is because this world and time we live in for the most part is going to hell in a hand basket - meaning peoples free will has not been in line with God's Salvation Plan. With that said, (Ecclesiastes 1:9) " The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun." The Book of Ecclesiastes is written for the Men and Women walking under the sun; just as Mark Twin said there are two important dates in a person's life, "when they a born and when they find out their purpose." Some if not, most people are fascinated with money and power that they are willing to sell their soul without even knowing it. Example, the United States being the most powerful nation on earth allows almost anything under their laws; for example, a persons' Civil Rights that go against God's Law, Will and Purpose for His Plan of Salvation for All Mankind. Therefore, the million-dollar question is; how long do you think God is going to allow the United States and other nations to do whatever they want and feel like doing that goes totally against His Word?

These 53 OPERATIONS REPORTS were produced for internal consumption and provide a comprehensive coverage of observation and bombing sorties, damage inflicted and incurred in clashes with the enemy, intelligence gathered, aircrew are frequently mentioned by name.In addition to seaplanes, carrier-borne aircraft, and other aircraft with a legitimate "naval" application, the R.N.A.S. also maintained several crack fighter squadrons on the Western Front, as well as allocating scarce resources to an independent strategic bombing force at a time when such operations were highly speculative.During it's existence the R.N.A.S. had bases and stations in the UK, France, The Eastern Mediterranean, Durban, Otranto, Malta and Mombassa.The information in this huge three volume set is an absolute gold mine of facts, packed with revealing detail for Great War aviation historians, medal collectors and researchers.Flight Sub-Lieut. Fox, Killingholme Air Station, in a Sopwith Baby seaplane, proceeded in chase of a Zeppelin reported to be about 35 miles east of Spurn, He sighted the airship, and rising to 11,000 feet passed over it, dropping four 16-lb. bombs in succession and two boxes of Rauken darts.Hostile Aircraft.--Eighteen aeroplanes of the First Brigade taking photographs in the rear of the enemy's lines encountered 19 hostile machines. As the result of the fight three hostile machines were destroyed, three driven down damaged, and one driven down under control. The hostile formation was broken up, and the photographic machines completed their work.Lieutenant Musgrave and Corporal Jex, No. 45 Squadron, drove down a two-seater out of control, and Lieutenants Charlwood and Selby of the same squadron drove down another enemy machine out of control.Flight Sub-Lieut. Burt was obliged to land near the wrecked seaplane owing to his pressure failing. The Camel sank, and he swam about 400 yards from the wrecked enemy seaplane and was picked up by one of our destroyers.Pembroke.--Airship C. 3 carried out a patrol to Coningbeg between 0915 and 1715, during which an oil patch was sighted and bombed 5 miles south-west of St. Ann's Head at 1545. Oil rose to the surface after the first bomb was dropped; this was observed to increase after the second bomb had exploded.Flight Commander Price on wireless patrol attacked an Albatross Scout. Enemy aircraft went down in an almost vertical dive, and the Camel followed it for some way, but was not able to keep up with the enemy aircraft. This combat is confirmed by anti-aircraft battery.
