i think i read a story about him puking in a garbage can before a gig because he ate a disgusting hoagie.
I remember a long time ago, me and several friends were in the back of some alley in San Francisco... of course we were in the dark area smoking some green stuff when all of a sudden we heard a noise down the street...
We see these TWO HUGE LUMBERING SHADOWS coming at us... we were all probably 18 or 19 and we started freaking out... oh shit, OMG... what the fuck... all stoned out of our minds... we mumbled amongst ourselves wondering if we should like find bottles to counter attack, or if we should just run out to the streets....
As they got pretty close, we were pretty fucking scared.... then all of a sudden I realized it was Gene and Ron walking towards us... I started lauging and said "hey guys, we're here to see you play! tear it up!!" or some shit like that... so we shook hands, and possibly mentioned something about what we were just thinking, so we headed out to the street and went our seperate directions.
I'm pretty sure it was the night that Death cancelled

... my friend Steve is a big RR fan, and he was up front when Ron put the microphone in the crowed... he grabbed it and started singning a few words... Ron looked really suprsied and let him sing probably 4-5 more lines... about a minute I would say... After the show they shook hands and were talking for a bit, but I'd had enough and went outside for a cig.
That's about the end of that story...
