Fan Mail: Rock 'N Roll Halloween

"Dear Metro D,

"I am a first time caller, long time listener and I wanted to share my Halloween experience from last night.

"After 5 or so people asked me if I was Kurt Cobain (my costume that is), I was waiting in line for yet another bar when a random guy came up to me and just said 'JOHN FRUSCIANTE!' Dude, I couldn’t make this up...it was fucking fantastical. Not only do people usually not know him by name, but this dude knew that it was exactly what I was going for with my wig (and $1100 Sunburst Strat slung on my back).

"The unfortunate event is something I could have predicted though. I have this girl who gets drunk (she hangs out with the whole crowd of people I have leeched onto) and every time she is out and has a few drinks she spends the rest of the night plotting and scheming a way to get me to f..."

Hey now! That's enough kids! At any rate...keep the fan mail coming, we're always willing to dip in the mail bag and share music, sports, and booze related tales.
