07/29/2002 Entry: "sg - houston"

I'm still alive. We went to Austin this weekend. I'm not leaving for my long-ass-road-trip until Thursday. Now you're in the know, baby.

I was sitting in a bubble bath earlier and thinking of some of the silly things I've done in life. I recall in 1996 I followed Soundgarden's tour bus from Houston halfway to Austin. I had gone to the show in Houston (which was held in an old grocery store) and offered to drop off a fellow SOMMSter (Soundgarden mailing list buddy) at his hotel. He had flown up from Mexico just for that show. Earlier we had hung around to meet the band and Matt Cameron had greeted me by name. I was sooooo cool. Ha. Anyway, thanks to my trucking ways I knew which route their tour bus would take to Austin. I kicked my little convertible up to Ludicrous Speed and hoped to catch up with them. As I was passing a lonely little truck stop in the middle of nowhere I saw their magenta tour bus parked next to the fuel pumps. I pulled an illegal-as-hell u-turn in the middle of the highway and went back. As I was filling up my car I watched Chris Cornell watch television on the bus and Matt, Ben, and Kim buy snacks in the store. Ben tried to lure a black cat to him on his way back to the tour bus. They all gave me big smiles and waved as they boarded the bus again. (Although, in retrospect, this may have been an attempt at pacifying a rabid fan instead of actual friendliness.) I went inside to pay for my gas and I asked the clerk if he knew who the guys on the bus were. He didn't. I told him it was the Almighty SOUNDGARDEN. He said "oh, they're in a band? I like wrestling, myself. have you ever seen *insert random wrestler's name here*?" "Holy CRAP!" I said. "You just sold a Slim Jim to Ben Shepherd and Doritos to MATT FUCKING CAMERON and you're talking about wrestling?!?" Anyway, their bus driver (whose job *I* should have had) came in to pay for their fuel and I told him to drive very carefully because he was carrying *very* precious cargo. He grinned and told me he would. I followed them until I had to turn off for San Antonio. (I was staying the night with a friend there.) Before the turn off I zoomed past the bus and waved (convertibles are neat). The driver flashed his lights at me and waved out his little window.

Good times... good times.

More tomorrow.
