* *********************An excerpt from today's (12/28) L.A. Times
article about Jonesy's Jukebox.


/"When the radio pitchmen who do the "Real Men of Genius" ads for
Bud Light praised the brand recently, Jonesy hammered away at them
to admit that, deep down, they must agree that all American beers
taste of urine. The squirming was nearly audible over the air.
"You don't drink this stuff, do you?" the DJ pokes. Later, off
air, he chuckles. "They're so showbiz they never expected someone
to do that on the air. But that beer can't be good." / *

Jonesy interview

"You're on billboards now, aren't you?

Yeah, it's crazy. It's really nuts, but it just goes to show you how starved people were for something decent on the radio in LA. It was absolute crap before Indie came along, I just mean rubbish. The same 10 fucking songs over and over and over again, 10 horrible songs. People get excited now, "God! it's two minutes to 12, get ready, we gotta put Jonesy's Jukebox on!"

Shovel was in attendance at a Professionals show in Detroit 25
years ago and now they are working together in L.A. Mr. Shovel was
searching the Internet for info on the Dimebag Darrell/Damageplan
shooting in Ohio. "I wouldn't want to see video of that," said
Steve. "It's like the "Faces of Death" (the video series). It
stays stuck in your noggin & contaminates your head"

Hollywood United won the league championship, Steve got a "proper"
massage yesterday and the in-studio webcam is operational. "A Sex
Pistol Has Sex"-- Jonesy told a story about hanging out in Chile
after a Pistols tour and "pulling" a bird. The bloke he was
hanging out with suggested Steve and the bird use his apartment
for the tryst instead of a hotel room. While Steve and the girl
were "doing the business", Steve noticed a hidden camera taping
the action. He confiscated and destroyed the offending tape, so we
