was the road manager for the Amazing (Royal) Crowns & after the conclusion of
the Cramps/Crowns/Bomboras tour (February/March 98), I believe they hired him on
to do the HSF tour. When I asked them about it, they said they could either
pay the dancers or pay Grant, but not both. In the end, the "roadie" proved more
valuable & I can certainly understand why, at least for a band on a prolonged
tour.

Now if you told me I could either have a hot gogo dancer shaking her monkeyhole
at the crowd during our 45 minute set, OR have a guy named Ludo (wearing a
leather vest with tassles, no less) help us load our shit out of the club, and
then proceed to drive our sorry arses down the autobahn in the dead of night,
all night...there is no choice, baby!
