[TommyKende]

Heya gang,

Tommy here. I'm currently sitting on the tour bus going from Columbus, Ohio to Chicago.. Everyone has gone to bed. Whilst writing this, channel 595 is on the TV.. It's the Playboy channel. It has become the most watched channel on the tour bus.. As if you expected anything less.

So Chicago has something special on in the next few days.. I get to see my first superbowl.. On top of that, I get to see this in Chicago.. Woo Hoo!!.. That is going to be an amazing experience..

This is our first stadium tour.. For me, it is actually weird to be living my dream.. I never thought I would get to live out my dream.. The feeling of stepping out onto stage, in a packed stadium is beyond any comprehension.. It's like a 25 minute orgasm.. Seriously, you should check my pants after a show.. Also, we're touring with absolute rock'n'roll legends... Tommy Lee? shit man.. This guy is the man.. He's experienced everything and we get to hang with the main man every night.. Dave Navarro? What a machine of a guitarist.. I've learnt a lot from Dave.. He's teaching us young rockers some great things.. It's surreal finding yourself in a room with these guys just hangin out or talking or having dinner.. Lukas is such a champion too.. He fits into the fold just dandy and I've learnt a lot from Lukas too.. He's a very talented guy.. Love him..

I have to send out a massive massive massive thank you to all the street teamers.. We would be nowhere without you guys so make sure you give them a big JK hug when you see them and a big sloppy kiss.. Nice!!! Just leave some for me..

We're trying to make sure that everyone who get's to the shows leaves happy so make sure, if you have some ideas for us.. Let us know.. We love hearing from you guys..

We see all the JK glow sticks in the crowd each night.. That is a special moment for all of us so make sure you have them in the air whilst we're on.. It really stands out..

Make sure you get your hands on our EP.. Our online store will be ready to go in the coming days.. There's so much going on in the JK camp.. Wish I could fill you in on all the exciting news.. Soon enough gang!!

OK.. Since I'm a slow typer, this has taken way too long.. I'll fill you legends in as often as I can..

Look forward to meeting all of you.. 2007 is only the start..

Lots of love..

Stay safe.

Tommy Kende

Muah!!!!

Awww, Tommy thanks for tearing yourself away from the Playboy Channel long enough to leave us a message, LOL. You're precious. So happy for you and that you are finding yourself living your dream. Playing on stage in front of such huge crowds must be unbelieveable. Get used to it. You and the rest of the JK boys deserve all the success that is coming your way. All of us at the street team are happy to help out in any we can (I would like to personally volunteer for the pants checking thing, lol).

Thanks for the update. We love hearing from you guys. Like Kelley said, it makes us want to get out there and work even harder for ya! We're sending lots of street team love right back atcha! Take care of yourself while on the road. Best of luck to you. Stop by again.

ps - i think it's adorable that you signed your message 'Tommy Kende'. as if we didn't know who you are.

Happy to see that you're having a great time and that everything is going so well. At the same time I'm sad 'cause I'll have to wait until this summer to see you guys again. I had a blast with you guys in Montreal. You really rock.

One advice....well two: First, stay who you are and true to yourself and second come back to Montreal (lol!).

Hugs and kisses

Enjoy all the experiences you are having!!

Hey, Tommy! I am so glad you are living out your dream! You guys all totally deserve it!!! You're all so talented, professional, and giving to your fans...speaking of which, I'll be in line to check the pants, too...LOL!
Are you guys actually going to the Superbowl??? That is awesome! I am a HUGE NFL fan, and have only been to one in season game. Tickets are quite hard to come by (kinda like those for your shows!!!). You'll have a great time, I'm sure! I want to hear details afterward! JK and the Superbowl, now that's a dream...now we just have to get you guys playing the halftime show and MY dream will be fulfilled!
Keep having a great time out there Tommy! My love and well-wishes to you and the rest of the boys! Take care! xoxoxoxoxo With Love and Respct, Catherine

Tommy,
I was at the Columbus concert last night and you guys totally rocked the house.Your concert exceeded my every expectation. I can't think of one other thing you guys could do for your fans. I couldn't believe that you guys stayed until 1 am so that every fan in line got to meet you. That was more than any other band ever has done for a line that long!!
I didn't tell you last night but your grin totally lights up a room.
Please thank the rest of the guys for being so fun and friendly to your fans. I hope Dale feels better soon(I really would have brought over some chicken soup)

Hey, Tommy.We couldn't be happier for you guys. Special thanks to you for being so cool with the Posse peeps at the afterparty in Chicago. You're a 'class act,' brother, as are the rest of 'the boys.' Looking forward to seeing y'all do your thang in Vancouver. You guys are gaining a lot of fans, supporters and heartfelt appreciation from not just your regular gang, here, but tons of Lukas/RSSN fans, too. So cool that you're all on tour, together, and living your dreams. Doesn't get much better than that. Safe travels, guys, and sending good thoughts everyone's way.

Tommy, It seems pretty obvious that everyone leaving your show is happy, you don't have to do much more to keep people happy! Its great you take time to let us know how you're going and whats happening, even if it is while the shows still on! I am so happy for all of you and that you are making the most of it. Look forward to hearing more from you. Enjoy the ride, and safe travels.

It was great to have met you that night Lori (you certainly were lucky...lol... ) And that you enjoyed meeting the guys...I hope to see you at some of hte club shows over the summer when they get back! In the mean time, keep watching the Aussie threads for the picks from the RS:SN Tour and the club tour back home...there may be some surprises thrown in there for good measure too!
