(posted) August 20th - The Reverend has just received the coolest piece of rock & roll memorabilia to add to his collection. Evil Ernie from the band Bad Amazon (and formerly from Reign Of Terror & Download) gave The Rev a 5 feet by 3 feet Alice Cooper shadow box. Ernie hand made the SINtire thing, from the frame, to the red velvet lined case. The box has a never before seen picture (blown up SINto poster size) of Alice and his snake on stage with three canes and a riding crop mounted across and below the poster, and at the bottom inside the case, ticket stubs and guitar picks from Alices band. Each cane and the riding crop were given to The Rev by Alice himself from the stage. The ticket stubs are each from the corresponding show. Ernie took the picture back in 1986 when Alice came here on the "Constrictor" tour. This box is exactly the same type as what you would see at the Hard Rock Cafe or the Hard Rock Hotel Casino. It is truly that bad ass. It is proudly on display on The Revs living room wall. Thanks Ernie!
(posted) July 25th - The Reverend has returned from his most reSINt Sin City excursion. Here we go: Departing flight out from Virginia was delayed, putting catching his connecting flight in jeopardy. Make it to Atlanta with about 20 minutes to get to the next gate/flight. Pilot comes on and says that we will have to wait about 15 to 30 minutes because THERE ARE NO GATES TO PARK THE PLANE. After 20 minutes or so, finally we get SINto a gate and hustle over to the next plane. Delayed. Board that plane and get to Sin City about an hour and a half later than expected, however Revs luggage did not make it at all. Next flight in (with the luggage) 10:30 am the next day. Go to the shuttle to get the rental car. Show up at the counter only to be told "WE HAVE NO MORE CARS." None. Not just the type The Reverend reserved, but NONE AT ALL. Catch a shuttle to the hotel casino. Check in the room, killer view from the 23rd floor, so that was a positive note until a pipe bursts in the bathroom, flooding the room. Moved to another room. 4th floor with a view of a wall and an air conditioning unit. Dammit. Got about an hour or two of sleep. Next day, play in slot tourney (did not win), went and picked up rental car and luggage. Met up with a few prospects for the guitarist position, headed out to check out some houses and condos, played $25 a hand blackjack all day all over town, had a killer streak and won a bunch of money. Could not sleep ANY that night. Next day went searching for properties. Found some nice places but did not buy anything yet. That night, went to see Steely Dan at the Aladdin Hotel Casino (sold out), then went to see a local band play and meet with a bassist, but he was gone by the time Rev showed up. No sleep at all for that night. Next day, heading out to his condo, he stopped at Fatburger to grab a bite. Two guys come up and put a chrome plated .45 pistol to his head and rob him. In broad daylight right in the middle of a parking lot with cars pulling in and out and traffic going past. They get away with $280 in cash and his cell phone (which of course has EVERY FUCKING NUMBER in the world stored on it, SINcluding all the names and numbers of the people who are SINterested in joining ORDAINED). They missed the $180 he had in his other pocket, and they did not take his wallet. The guy going through Revs pockets keeps saying "Kill him! Kill him! Fuck it man, shoot him! Kill him!". They run off, Rev grabs his car keys that they took and threw across the lot and hauls ass outta there. No sleep that night (3rd night no sleep). Next day, drop off the car, head to the airport. Board the plane, get to Atlanta for a hour and a half layover. They SINd him to the wrong gate. After an hour and 20 minutes, realizes that he is at the wrong gate, runs over to the correct gate (which was nowhere near the gate he was waiting at). Quick note to everyone out there: DO NOT RUN IN AN AIRPORT ANYMORE. Security stops and questions him. Make it to the gate, they take his boarding pass,then stop him and won't let him on the plane. Overbooked. Next flight out: two and a half hours later. Sit in Atlanta for 4 hours. Finally get on plane and get back to Virginia at 1 am. Was supposed to get back at 9 pm. Finally got some sleep when he arrived at his house at 2:00 in the morning. Nothing like Sin City! Viva Las Vegas!
