July 7th, 1979
I went to see Blondie at Convention Hall in Asbury Park. It is the last time I am going to see them play. I had gotten myself a 3rd row ticket which was really good. But as luck would have it, there was some kid that could not take photos so he gave me his front row seat. So I threw a beach ball up to Debbie Harry but of course it hit Nigel instead. He was laughing alot from it. I kept screaming out for them to do "Rip Her to Shreds" and she pointed to me during the song since I've been wanting her to do it for the last few shows. Then she came over and played with my hair, just like Tommy Trask did. Before the show I saw Frank and Nigel in their limo and they waved to me. Then Nigel saw me in the front row and went and told Nigel and Clem. The show was fun but Blondie is no where as good as they used to be. And the rest of the band was kind of boring. And such a horrible crowd was there. No one even stood up and danced. Well what can I say, Blondie sold out and did it to themselves.

More Johnny Thunders
July 6th, 1979
I went to see Johnny Thunders at Max's. The show was as good as always. I spoke with Billy from the Blessed for a really long time. We got along well and did not fight. He only stayed for the first show. But Howie Pyro was at the second show so I got to speak with him for the rest of the night. He was super nice. I can not wait to see them again.

Back to the Fast Lane
July 5th, 2009
Went to see the David Johansen Band at the Fast Lane in Asbury Park. It was really good and Tommy Trask was so great on stage. We got into all of these silly fights and he once kidding messed up my hair. I got 3 guitar pics and 3 drum sticks so it was a very good night. I got right up front by the stage again. It is the only place to see a band.

The Blessed at MAX'S
June 30th, 1979
I went to see the Blessed at Max's. I can honestly say I think I enjoyed this show the most.It was a very relaxed atmosphere and the show was so good. I really mad at Howie Pyro but not anymore. was actually kind of sweet last night. I had planned to go to England in September to stay with a penpal and Howie is going at the same time. At least that is one way of assuring that I don't miss any Blessed shows.
Billy Stark was also super nice. He gave me his address because I have to send him a fan letter a penpal of mine wrote him. I could have killed Billy because he said Manhatten during a song and he knows how much I hated that movie and he loved it. So during the secong set I put up a sign for Grease since he hated that movie so much I loved it. I sat through Grease 5 times on 1 weekend. One day I sat through 3 showings and the next day 2 showings. I love it so much. Billy said he was laughing all during the first song when he saw my Grease sign.
I met a penpal of mine from South Carolina - Aldyth. It was really weird to meet her. She is a Bowie penpal but she is really in love with Howie Pyro. I am not too sure that she likes me too much. I was really possessive of the Blessed. I can't help it - I love them so much. Howie has really improved on the stage, I can not believe how much better he has gotten. And I finally got a guitar pic from him since he never has any.
Billy told me something so depressing. He told me the Blessed broke up 2 weeks ago and Howie was kicked out the band. So Billy said he would commit suicide since he could never play in another band. He didn't tell me the whole story but he said he will. God - If there were never any more Blessed I would die.

More David Jo
June 23rd, 1979
I went to see the David Johansen Band at Dover, NJ . I swore I would not go back to that place either but I can not help it, that is where all the bands are playing and I can not miss them. A nightmare occurred. I was not able to stand underneath Tommy Trask but I got pretty close. He did step over just so he could hand me a guitar pic. Oh how thoughtful. They did alot of new songs that were really good. It was so strange to not see Johnny & Buzzy up there playing. I spoke with Frankie LaRocka after the show and he is so nice. Tommy Trask never even said hello. He can be such a bastard sometimes.

More Ramones....
June 22nd, 1979
Went to see the Ramones at the Fast Lane in Asbury Park even tho I swore I would not go there any more or to any more shows. I was telling everyone it was my last Ramones show. Johnny Ramone was so cute tho. I got a broken guitar string from Johnny. I had a few fights with Matt the roadie. I don't know what is wrong with him lately. He was so nice in the beginning.
