Very, very cool.

Famous and successful people, it seems to me, tend to interact with the reality that others walk the same planet they do.

Reality Interaction #1: The “I’m too big and you are a little nobody (for now – who really knows what the future may bring). I don’t have the time for you. My entourage must do a better job of blocking you peons or they will be out of a job.”

Reality Interaction #2: The Chickenfoot way.

JMHO – not even worth 2 cents.

“Where was Joe”

It sounds like a freaking CF t-shirt.

I think its great that they’re properly interacting with not just fans but serious musicians who want to make it big. I know that Chad was a session musician and played small clubs before he auditioned for the RHCP – look where he is now! Everyone needs a vehicle to showcase their talent and being late forties-sixties these fellas know what they’re talking about.

Speaking of T-shirt, in April, I signed up for the Chickenfoot fan club and today is October 5th and I have not been able to get FANFIRE to send me anything. I cannot believe that the guys in the band would want their merch company treating ‘fanclub’ members like this! They won’t refund my money or send me a shirt! Anyone else have this happen to them?

JIM KNAPP – I had to wait about 4-6 weeks for my T-Shirt, but sounds like you’ve waited longer. Mine was resolved by email, but maybe give them a call or something. Good luck man!
Pete

Just classy guys who happen to love music and don’t forget who put them in the lifestyle they enjoy today. It doesn’t get any better than this for fans of real rock ‘n roll.

Jim, I ordered two Chickenfoot T’s from the VH Store and got them within 3 days … great service.
