JOHN LEGEND... YOU SEXY.
*******John Legend. What a talented hot man.

Ladies and gentlemen.....

SUMMER of YES has come and gone and now arrives...
FALL OF FUN (FoF).....and after that, WINTER of WHEEE(WoW)! Let's kick it off!

Brought my friend cassie to John Legend's small venue pre-promo tour
show in SF Sat nite @ The Independent. *Shout out to Childhood BFF
Sandy for hooking me up with tickets to this super-small-venue
concert.* Was only able to catch the last song "So High" since I had
to close shop @ the crew. Boo. Anyways, he was amazing, sexy, hot,
soooo talented, and what an amazing band and backup...wanted to share
a small story with yall with what happened to Cassie and me after the
show...

After gettin Popeye's buttery biscuits from across the street, Cassie and I
get back in our car and drive to TBD next watering hole. Driving by
the club, The Independent, where the show was at, we see the guitarist
(he's black, kinda Eric Benet-ish but without the sexaholism, prolly,
jury's still out), another black dude, and a black sista. We pull up
and scream out the window," Yall were amazing on the guitar! We only
go to see one song but you were amazing, etc." We ask where they're
going and they say back to the hotel Le Meridian. We say, "Hop in,
we'll take you" We pop the trunk, they fill it, get in, and I still
have 1 popeye biscuit in hand ...all glazed and beautiful, ready to be anihalatedd and of course, I offer it to my brothas from another mother.... they eat it
up... we tell them about the only 24-hour Mickey D's in SF and they're totally
down, we haul ass over there... 2 Filet-o-Fish meals later, we're
driving back to Le Meredian..we're talkin food of course, nyc,
brooklyn - cuz that's where they're from, and what else they're up to
that evening, they said maybe the after-party in Oakland because John
Legend's younger bro is performing..

We get to the hotel and as they're getting out they ask, "You aren't
just gonna drop n bounce are you?" We go: "We aren't groupies or
anything" They go: "Cmon up, we're in room 909, take down our numbers"
We swap numbers and tell them we gotta find some parking first and
that we'll hollar.

Cassie and I go park, scream and high five in the car. Pop a squat to
peee curbside cuz I seriously HAD TO GO, and then we go head upstairs.
The room ends up being Sharief the guitarist's... he's the only one
there, DUN DUN DUN..anyways.. we ask where the other peeps are and he
said most went to the after party........we sit, have heinie's,
there's some green stuff*i passed, obviously*, we're all just hanging
out.. and sharief has JL's DVD recording from the NYC Bowery
Ballroom.. so we get to see the recap of the concert we missed...

Moving on... later Greg *he mixes JL's songs* comes on in and sits
pretty next to me on the bed... we all hang out and yap, then greg
decides to get cuddly with me and my neck....anyways.. keyboardist
roomie comes back to the hotel room and we all chil for a while
longer, then cassie and I excuse ourselves and bounce....we say our
goodbyes and the "call us next time yall are in town"
toodles..and....SCENE.

Okay.. anyways, last nite was all really random, but this totally made
up for us catching only 1song.....WE GOT TO HANG OUT WITH JL'S HOMIES!
