ZUMA TWEETS
[PICTURED: Adam Sandler wears original Zuma Dogg T-shirt, for "spirit lifting" Holiday video message to troops in Iraq. He didn't wear that shirt, by accident. L.A. City told Zuma Dogg, he couldn't even DISPLAY the t-shirt on Venice Beach Boardwalk. An Iraq war veteran, recovering at home, called Zuma Dogg, in 2007 to tell him, "I'm recovering from Iraq. Just had Zuma Dogg 72-hour, YouTUBE marathon. Watched every video. Keep doing what you're doing! THAT'S what we're fighting for!" AGAIN, L.A. City said, "DO NOT DISPLAY ON THE BOARDWALK, OR YOU WILL BE ARRESTED!" Zuma Dogg says, "FUCK YOU, CITY HALL, YOU BUNCH OF WORSE THAN WORTHLESS, PUSSY-COWARDS...YOU COULDN'T GET A COMMENT LIKE THAT, IF YOU PAID FOR IT...CAUSE THEY WOULDN'T SAY IT FOR YOU...CAUSE UNLIKE YOU...THEY NEVER COMPROMISE THEIR FAITH OR DIGNITY!!! UNLIKE YOU WEAK COWARDLY-FUCKS!]
AND NOW...let's LIGHTEN the tone, with Zuma Dogg's "Rock & Roll Recollections" (Pre-City Hall Era). Forrest Gump has HIS stories...Zuma Dogg has HIS.
- BON JOVI/MSG: ZD standing @ stage steps. LIGHTS OUT! BON JOVI BEHIND ZD! Tried to move! Ritchie put arm around ZD, so I could enjoy moment. 8 minutes ago
- NEIL YOUNG BACKSTAGE: Earned right to be crankier than ZD. He held door open w/one hand, one foot out door. HATES signing OLD LPs! NEW ONLY! 12 minutes ago
- KINGPINS DON'T STAY IN HOTELS! When ZD visited NYC, for wknd, slept in Whitney Houston's bed! NO, she wasn't there. ZD stayed in her condo. 15 minutes ago
- WHEN ZD STROLLS DOWN AISLE into front row, center aisle, (Sec 2, seat A1) at last minute (cause you are backstage with the group/artist/managers), at a STADIUM SHOW, people look and, "wonder who THAT is, to get THAT seat? Must know the band." Kind of. Don't worry about it. Just don't get too close...I LIKE TO PLAY AIR DRUMS!
- EVER Have songwriter/guitarist for group selling over 25 million LPs, invite you to his house, to play UNRELEASED MATERIAL? BEYOND COOL! ;) 23 minutes ago
- R&R LEGEND PHOTO ALERT: HERE'S 1, can almost ASSURE you've never seen, cause I'm just posting it, now! Page/DeLeo! http://t.co/cUoc7NGG 26 minutes ago
- [PICTURED: Sorry, Dean...HAD TO POST IT! (Don't make fun of him...even if you sold over 25 million albums, sold out arenas across the world and were SECOND greatest guitarist in the world (r/Dean), you'd STILL get all "giddy," taking a picture, like this. And all ZD can say is, "Jimmy, you smoke nothing but the BEST, Y'ALL!" (ZD didn't hit/only smelled it!)
- WHEN ROLLING STONES "STEEL WHEELS" TOUR rolled into Washington, D.C., the manager pulled Mick & Keith through the backstage crowd (ALL VIPS!), to meet ZD...FIRST, before ANY AND ALL ELSE IN WASHINGTON, D.C.! IN their backstage dressing room/lounge. Pool tables, dart boards, etc. Had an entire conversation with Keith. Only problem: I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND A WORD HE SAID. I just kept listening, laughing and nodding. It kept the conversation going. All Mick could do, is complain to ZD how sick he was cause it was 90 degrees in Arizona, one day. Then 34 degrees, in the rain, in Minneapolis, the next night. (POOR STADIUM ROCK STAR!)
- ZD'S FAVORITE PICTURE! CAPTURES ERA!: LOOK @ this pic, circa 200?, when ZD rolled in Westlake Village Mall/NOT even L.A. City! DAILY OCCURRENCE! But THIS is FLAVA! 34 minutes ago

Hi, Ric, you LOSER! It's DAVE ELLIOTT!]
- IF YOU LIKE SINGER SEAL: You're WELCOME! At least for getting him signed to U.S. record deal with WB, based on ZD's airplay at Houston radio station. WAS FIRST IN U.S. to play import of obscure British artist, sitting in the forest meditating. (IT WORKED!) SEAL & WB paid PROPS to ZD with PRIVATE party with Seal. He hung out with me, at my office, all day. And years later, in NYC @ Beacon...all others waited backstage, till ZD and Seal were done catching up/taking pictures.
