Hacksaw wrote:One night after playing a gig at the Roxy Theater in the late 80's (opened for the Dixie Dregs iirc) our singer, bassist and myself had an arranged late dinner/drinks meeting at the Rainbow Room with Cy Langston and John Entwistle.
John was just finishing the last shows of their Tommy tour and was looking for a project in LA. He was trying to extend his visa or something.

So anyway, right as we're getting down do business at a dimly lit booth in the back, no other that Sam Kinison comes cruising by the table and spotted John.
In his typical fashion, he brashly barged into our conversation and started doing his shtick. He went on and on to the point I was about to ask him to get lost.
Unfortunately the whole experience derailed our meeting and John went on to produce a solo album instead.

In an ironic twist, that same evening Kinison fell off the wagon. He met and hired this big dude to be his bodyguard in the club.
The next day I read in the paper that Kinison and the new bodyguard went back to Kinison's home early that same morning. Sam passed out and the big dude went and raped Sam's wife. :shock:

Not his best performance and nixed ours. :roll:


Well that story got dark in a hurry...
