    Thanks, I'll never stop to travel and surely I'll be back to US (as 10c gave the news about the new Ed tour we searched immediately for a flight...too expensive but no problem for coming back) but I'm also sorry for the nice persons Americans are. And I feel so sorry when I hear US people talking about freedom...you know what I mean?


    If you come out to the west coast for a show, let me know.

    The freedoms here are just different. We have much more of some freedoms than the Europeans do generally, but less of others. It's just...different.

    They may have heard that before from some kids with tainted cookies or brownies.


    Exactly.. How is the security person going to know if the food was for someone who is diabetic, someone who had pot cookies or someone who was just too cheap to buy food at the arena... I brought a sealed water with me because I get thirsty.. Should the security person let me take it in? What if it was filled with vodka...

    I'm not saying the rules are right.. but they are the rules and the security person is just doing their job... and probably getting paid nothing for that job.

    This is funny it's like say:
    Every people dressed like rabbit must be lock in a mad house, who cares if they have been to a masked ball!

    I hope they didn't get payed...

    sorry about your unpleasant experience but you see America has become a police state.

    being from Italy I'm sure you are not new to fascism.

    I exactly thought about it when this things happened, remind me the tales about our grandparents and what they have experienced from '39 to '45...but this doesn't mean that I'm used about it...

    Biss....does your girlfriend wear an "medical alert bracelet", indicating her
    diabetes and wouldn't that "alert" the security people that indeed she really needed her cookies??? Maybe it's just a Canadian thing not sure?
