anyway, someone probably said "they're from here" (meaning Cali) and Sam interpreted that as San Diego, since that is where they were ... just a guess

all of the LA references on Quality Control, I think that's a safe bet.
Is Samantha the white girl in the red tank top with lots of wires attached to her who was trying to fix Truth Hurts' mic during her set in Mountain View?

Whew.....and I thought I was pissed when someone on another post misspelled India.Arie with.....India Irie.
I just figure that hip-hop obsessives should be the only ones who get to be on a hip-hop touring crew. If ya don't know where J5 is from, ya should get axed. LOL.

...on a road crew is a hip hop obsessive. That -ish only works for writers and performers. She's obviously good at what she was hired to do, which I highly doubt was obsessing about hip hop.
It's like working for an agent who's star struck .... gotta line up those priorities accordingly.

You misunderstood my usage of the made-up term "hip-hop obsessive". By that, I mean someone who has an extensive knowledge about hip-hop. In the era of the overly sensitive hip-hop artist, who really wants to get into a beef just because someone on their tour crew sees Cam'Ron backstage and says "Hey, aren't you down with Nas? You're one of my favorite rappers from Queens!". LOL.

...industry politics is something she'll have to deal with eventually as a representative of the band. When dealing with politics, it helps to know about the players on the board. In that sense, I wonder how fully you do understand me. LOL.
35. "RE: not star struck, knowledgable" In response to Reply # 16
yeah right, so they talk about how much they know and never shut up on the tour bus, then Reek gets pissed and throws them off in the middle of nowhere anyway? I'll take the New Mexico white girl thank you very much.

All the junkies on these boards would be jealous that some *new girl* 1. got hired to go on tour and 2. gets to keep a tour journal...She must be HOT!!!
I agree though...more pizaaz, please?!!!?!?
She does need to expand on how they ended up in Ohio somewhere between CA & CO!
21. "RE: She is Tina's assistant." In response to Reply # 13
Maybe SHE needs an assistant...not cracking on her, but she may be able to relay her experience to someone with writing experience. I know y'all aren't tryna put someone else on the bus, but someone at the OK office can help her...maybe....
>her shit is lame though, what the hell is she doin out of shirts on the road?
calling someone whom you dont even know lame over some shit you obviously have no clue about

all the info we got was "bangin resume" and a years worth of calling
come on Dan, I didnt know she was Tina's help. From the posts, all you gather is she's with the merch like its her job on the road. I mean, I know if Tina is the Tour Manager, that is alot of stress, so Sam must be the super stressed.
Like I said, I was crude at first, but now I get the jist. It has nothing to do with staff and all that shit either. Regardless of what i say, its about what she says, right?
I mean, I hope she at least enjoys the experince and that Tina gets her man
49. "im hearing you all" In response to Reply # 47
just that statement rubbed me the wrong way
seeing how you (AJ) are one of the few okayplayers I know on a personal level (away from the computer), i can imagine you didn't mean anything nasty by it.
part of me feeling some type of way is likely due to the fact that I know better than anyone the details of the smokin' grooves merchandise situation ...
so I did perceive a certain sort of "jumping to conclusions" from the remark
that and I also know Sam to a degree and this her first time out with The Roots and that definitely is not something anyone can just deal with.
and yeah, to each his/her own

i mean, ?uest basically setd the tone, his ass is busy so tina assistant is busy. she prolly not even seeing the light of day. first one up, last one out. actually, i feel for her cuz I been there NOW back to your munchkin' lucky charms ass. Go sing Danny Boy at a gay midget Kareoke bar.
Or if Sam swings your way, treat fer to more than a kind word and a cigarette , lil buster lol
42. "shut the fuck up abdul!!" In response to Reply # 39
i aint singing no danny boy..anyways for the record Sam seemed mad nice and she was cute when I met her in april...............I think most of yall bammas who write posts about staff members are just salty that you arent one of them and instead home alphabetizing your mp3 collection.
yeah, a can imagine? So Tina, I mean after your set you can go and chill for a second, till you see the over all manager, right? I mean your assistant is lugging DJ equipment too?
