RIP Steve 'the lizard king' Campos
#3
I'm glad it was quick...at least relatively so.

I had to go straight into our KFTC25 AF press conference right after getting the news.  Fortunately, it was for Chinese press, so I just had to sit there and nod.  And try to smile.

Steve is the one who originally dubbed me 'drunk monk'.  He is also the person that caused my nacho metaphor to explode.  The nacho thing sort of started with MQ6, but it really got out of hand when Steve and I worked Shoreline together in 87-88.  For years, we kept a work-daily email correspondence we called the nachogram, in which we developed so many private metaphors based on nachos.  After he went on disability a few years ago, the nachogram went to a weekly thing.  I spoke to him a few times in hospice.  I made him a special custom nacho card last weekend, but I doubt he got it in time.  

Steve was my first Rock Med conspirator.  He was the first show manager for the first permanent RM installation in a venue.  And we ruled that house for a few years.  Such shenanigans.   

U2 tonight suddenly got really hard.

Now back to work.
