play yourself as a rock star going back home from doing gigs here in the states? heh... that's a toughie. good luck!

airports are a nightmare just trying to get to seattle from oakland !

yes but don't they have a way to find out if you had the guitar with you coming TO the USA?
if not I see no problem...but this is a little too easy...
Steve won't be in NY to give me some lessons, will he?

yeh, when you get to the airport, you should run around screaming "I AM THE HAND OF GOD! ALL INFIDELS SHALL BE CLEANSED!@" it'll be a real laugh.

If I intend to become a terrorist, no flight for me, huh?

He'll buy his OWN plane. AND he'll carry sharp metallic objects, guns, and scream wildly about Allah hating the Americans during his private flight. Suck THAT, Mr. Bush. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA

Hmm I'd love to but I don't think I have enough money to buy another flight AND the lessons
If we were staying for let's say 3 weeks I'd like to spend a week (or 2) at the west-coast
