Random Rock Star Moment: Brad Pitt

I haven't documented it in this space yet, but last week Umlaut and Skychick returned to New Orleans and Houston on the latest leg of the Stalking Tour Manager Doug Tour 2009.

Brad Pitt to Pax -- Rock-a-Bye Baby

Brad Pitt further proved he's the coolest dad ever by taking sons Pax and Maddox to a Green Day concert in New Orleans last week. While it may or may not be a testament to the band's music, Brad made sure the boys' ears were safely covered and plugged. Apparently, all that punk/pop screeching was enough to rock Pax to sleep.


Seated directly behind Pitt in Section 114 of the New Orleans Arena is none other than Umlaut and his Behemoth shirt! To my left is Skychick.

Yes, I was *that* close to Louis de Pointe du Lac but security were very aggressive about it being a no-camera zone around him, which was cool since he was with his kids. Of course, that didn't prevent people in front of us on the GA Floor to take snapshots.

There will be more details whenever I get around to writing about the NoLa > Houston trek, but in the meantime here is a pic I took after the show of the chair that hosted Brad Pitt's ass for 2 hours:

Yes, Pitt and the kids were backstage afterwards... Hey, I don't make this shit up... I just live it.
