3cookies Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 (edited) Well guys. Jeff received his picture from you guys at Denim Lounge after "Live 8" at his own after party bash. The "Official Afterparty" was at Kimmell Center, but JJ was spininin and doing his own thing. SO...to give u guys a little break down of my Philly / NEw England trip... I got to Philly on Saturday in the early afternoon and went strait to Live 8 cuz I thought that would be a better chance, but the crowd stopped me in my car tracks. lol so I went straight to ATOJ studio to drop off the pic with Irizie. right? LOL. wrong. TO my GREAT suprise...ATOJ studio is no longer there. lmao. Jeff moved it to New Jersey... (from what I was told) Then I was like dam. So I went back down to Live 8 and (found a perfect spot) parked on 22nd and Market street only to get out with this HUGE 60 pound Jazzy JEff picture. (that about 50 million ppl kept stopping me asking to see it, and even wanting to buy it. LOL) but the crowd was madd crazy...so that was a hopeless cause... and I was too tired to walk 5 blocks with that heavy pic that was getting heavier as ppl stopped me, or even to watch the rest of the bands/performers and fight thru that THICK crowd of ppl....so I sadly retreated back to my car. I was about to just leave Philly, but that would be a waste of gas and time... so I went back to ATOJ studio and left a message for Vidal abt the pic, cuz I would have had to come back thru Philly to leave Jeff's pic with him... To make a long story really really short. I was about to leave again, I went back to live 8, and met up with a couple of police officers, because someone told me to get a police escort. (why? i dunno..but it worked) haha They saw the pic, and was so amazed... 2 police officers (Skip & Dave) personally escorted me thru the crazy Philly traffic to the official after party. The manager or whoever was in charge told us that JJ was doing his own thing at Denim. I wanted to see the fireworks at the park so I met up with them after their detail and then I was escorted again to Denim Lounge, and met up with one of the managers name Shawn to drop off the pic. At first he was like,... "Did you get this approved thru his manager?". I was like,...LOok. I just drove ALL the way from Atlanta to deliver this pic to Jeff Townes, and was told to get police escort when I got in the city. I'm off schedule with my trip, VERY tired and Jeff needs to receive this pic because I am not coming back thru Philly when I leave New England." He was like... Do you know Jeff? Do you have his number? I told him,... "Jeff don't know me,...but he needs to get this pic, so just tell him its from Tim Price and all the others for his birthday. It's already late, and he knows Tim, so thats all u gotta say.. LOL (well i kinda threw in a fib and said that JJ was expecting it and might get mad if he dont get it. hahah shhhh!!! :whiteflag: ). I didn't want him to think I was pulling some kinda "loretta" stunt . LMbo He said that Jeff was spinning at 1 am,...and I'm guessing thought that I was gonna stay...but it was like 1 1/2 or 2 hours prior to that, ... I told him that I wasn't dressed appropriately and was waaay too tired to wait around....but he was cool when he saw it and the cops took it out of my car. LOL. ) well. The manager called my cell phone and left a msg with a very pleased tone of voice, that Jeff was very happy to get the portrait, everything went well, and he personally helped Jeff put it in the truck at the end of the night... so now we dont have to wander if he got it or not... I wind up spending the night in Philly after watching the fireworks in the park with my doggie, and riding all over the city... I had the perfect opportunity to watch Jeff perform live, but I was debating with myself and falling asleep behind the wheel...so sadly,... I just had to pass the opportunity up. My main thing was to deliver the pic...and so it was... The cops said I went out of my way to do all of that..and saw that I didn't even get to see the Live 8 show,..so one of them is gonna send me some Live 8 Souvenir Memorabilia... The white bands with "live 8 / Philadelphia/ and the date) written in black..along with some pics they took. so when i get them, ill share them with u guys, cuz he said he got some good pics of Will...Beyonce,...and others too... man.... do I have some kind of omen or what...i was right there and still missed seeing Will n Jeff. talkin bout dedication tho! LOL well thats abt it.. hope u guys r proud of me..cuz i was tore up from the floor up afterwards.... lmbo and dead asleep by 12:30 am! :2thumbs: peace, cookie Edited July 6, 2005 by 3cookies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
