Robot Roadkill Check In #1

Most of you have probably seen the video "The Return of Darryl." Well, we haven't seen him since that day when he hitchhiked out of Evansville, IN. We figured he probably caught up with some other buddies or another band and stayed out on the road. Turns out, we were wrong. Darryl is in Los Angeles! Someone tipped us off to a Craigslist ad that he took out looking for work. Check it out (if you click on the picture it'll open it up big so you can read it):


We're not really in the market for a new roadie at the moment - not that we'd hire that guy again - but it's nice to hear that Darryl is back and he's doing all right. We didn't leave on good terms, exactly, but there were moments that we all had a really fun time - like in Texas. Well, until he got out of control. Which is usually what always happened.

Anyway, maybe drop him a line if you know of any bands that might be interested. Here's the link to the actual ad:

The Return of Darryl!

I know everyone heard about Darryl over the tour - some of the rumors true, some not - and you've probably wondered whatever happened to him. He started out with such promise, such potential, but it didn't quite all come to fruition. Here's what happened when he came back on tour after having had some previous disagreements with the band in the past...

PACK YOUR BAGS!

I guess it's probably time that I introduced myself. The AMP guys heard about me through the grapevine. They wanted someone with experience. Someone who's been through it all.

They don't even know how much I've seen. I do know that they're in for quite a ride and I'm here to take you along with us. Granted, there's no way the Robot Roadkill Tour can be anywhere nearly as triumphant as the Nelson World Tour 1991. But what can?

My name is Darryl Mahoney and I'm a professional band gear manager. And now tour blogger as well.

We push out Monday morning at 5am. First stop: Phoenix, AZ. Goal: To severely rock the One Place.

Rock!
