How Much Do We Love Los Angeles?

Enough to take a little DETOUR from our upcoming Euro-dates to party with Beck (who happens to be Dyan's first-cousin and brother in-law), the Queens of the Stone Age (who happen to be the manliest of men, and not Queens at all), Redd Kross (who have a slight problem with spelling, but are otherwise stand-up guys), and many more of the best music makers in the world today. This is going to be badass, but without any of the badness or assiness. We're talking the time of your life.

Also, I'm extending the caption contest deadline till 9am Tuesday California time (that's 5pm Tuesday GMT)to give people time to sex-up their responses a little. Come on people! Sex them up! This could be your only chance to get your paws on the sexiest slab of ethched vinyl you've ever heard!

I love you,
