Random Rock Star Moment #13: Yngwie Malmsteen

Tour Manager Doug ("TMD") sent Umlaut a Blackberry message from Madrid, España to say that the local radio station was playing Yngwie Malmsteen. Umlaut replied with "What year is this?" and sent him this pic:

Yngwie with Steeler (His 1st show outside of Sweden)
The Old Waldorf, San Francisco - 1983
(Pic by Umlaut)

TMD then forwarded the pic to his buddy who is Yngwie's current tour manager.. who replied with this:

"Just showed this to Yngwie. He asked me in his best Jerky Boys "Where does dis guy get dis wacky shit?" Surreal."

Sometimes, Umlaut's world is THIS small.

UNLEASH THE FUCKING FURY!!
