That’s How I Beat A Fiery Demise
Our good friend Andy nearly had some bad news. You see, he was once tour manager for former pop sensation and pre-teen heartthrob Aaron Carter - yes, the younger brother of a slightly more famous yet still wretchedly awful Carter of a certain boy band that once held this nation firmly in it’s bland, formulated grasp. At any rate, it seems our young, demographically packaged lad avoided the scythe of death a bit better than he avoided the timer on his fifteen seconds of fame, when his SUV caught fire and exploded while driving to Orlando.
I mention this story for two reasons:
- It’s a pretty wierd story.
- It’s another opportunity to remind Andy about his two tours of duty with a little kid and his…erm…interesting family. Not that he would tell anyone about that, mind you.
You can view pictures from his touring days here, although by using that link, you pop out of his navagation frame, so you might want to use the front door, and click on My Touring Days on the left nav. And while I like to razz him about this a little, he did get to meet Bruce Willis and Donald Gibb while on tour, so that does make up for quite a bit.

#1 Why was he stupid enough to drive over a whole mattress?? And #2, why is a 17 year old kid driving a 2004 Escalade anyway? I’m sorry, but I have no sympathy here.
PS: I didn’t mean to flame Netflix or anyone who uses their service. I’m sick and therefore entitled to be cranky. =P

You’re right, meeting Ogre made it all totally worth it. Not to mention the 30 emails a week I STILL get from Aaron Fans about meeting him and all that. I just don’t mention them on the website because I don’t want to encourage them… nightmares still haunt me like a bad burrito…

Hey now, I didn’t make Brett sick! It wasn’t until the week after I started feeling better, the day after driving Death to work that he started to complain. =P

His symptoms are not my symptoms, and I dont kiss him. It takes longer than a day for these things to gestate, and manifest themselves. Sorry, he only has you to blame.

Actually his symptoms aren’t my symptoms either. I wonder who he’s been kissing? Hmm…
