Tearin it up in Connecticut


Night 3 we were headed back East to Wallingford CT. to a packed house of rowdy, crazy Guy fans. With things a movin and a shakin, choppin and smack talkin we had the attention of all when Guy decides to bring out a special guest all the way from NYC none other than Sunny Anderson. And let me tell you that girl can rock and cook. Guy and Sunny took cookin and smack talkin to a new level. The party was still going on when the show was over.



Thanks for letting us rock your house Wallingford.








Thanks Sunny for coming down and hangin with us.

Rockin PHILLY


Stop 2 on the tour was "PHILLY" and let me tell you did it go off like an explosion.
What an awesome venue and a crowd that was OFF DA HOOK. With the opening act from a local chef "The Cheesesteak King" doing a Southwestern Chipotle Cheesteak that was the bomb. Then it was up to WOODY our Flare Mixologist from Australia to get the crowd on there feet mixing drinks and throwin bottles all over the place.






With that said it was now "GO TIME" and let me just say it was "MUNEE" Big crowd, loud music, drinks and some KILLER food.





Thanks Philly

"ROAD TOUR OPENER"


Where to start, well that would be Lowell Massachusetts just outside of Boston. With nerves on edge taking the crazy, loud, Guy cooking demo to a new level never seen before. Wow and is that exactly what happened, It was loudier, crazier and completely out of bounds and off da hook mayhem at the same time. Guy leading the way with me on the right, Dirty on the left DJ cobra in the back and Stretch (from Grinders in KC) it was an hour and 25 min of complete rock and roll cooking that the crowd loved and screamed for more.

Thanks Lowell for hosting the 1st night of the 30 day 22 city rock and roll road show.

Come back and see how Philly went.

"ROCK on Cleveland"


Cleveland Definately lives up to the Cleveland Rocks slogan!!!!

Headed into Cleveland Guy and his family rolled into to Cleveland with an entourage and started the night at the Youngstown Phantoms Hockey game where Guy and Joey Fatone dropped the puck. What a great game and we wish the Phantoms continued success. "GO PHANTOMS"

Then it was off to the I X Center outside of Cleveland for 3 on stage demos and 2 book signings. All I can say is Guy has so many fans in Cleveland. The place was packed all 3 times 2000 plus each show. And the autograph sessions were 2hrs non stop. Thanks Cleveland for putting on a great show, see yah next year.

BUSY,BUSY,BUSY,BUSY

First of all I would like to apologize for the lack of Blogs, due to I went on a little Vacation before the Guy Fieri Road Tour starts.

So now time for a little update on where and what Guy is doing. With the last Triple D shoot of the year ending in the Charlotte area it was off to NYC, where the term 25/8 has now been put into affect. Guy commented that this was by far the hardest and busiest week of his life. 6 days included the Release of his 2nd Book titled More Diners Drive Ins and Dives, The Today Show, Letterman, The View, Extra, 4 Book signings 45 radio and newspaper interviews, and that is just what I know about. I do also know that I am very jealous because he got to attend the final game of the World Series.

Home this past Sunday morning for another week of radio and newspaper interviews, at least they are from the comfort of his home. Stoked to be home for a few days with Lori and the Boys and then Thursday night it is off to Cleveland for the Cleveland Fabulous Food Show. And after that we are going to rock the US with the Guy Fieri Road Show, 21 cities in 30 days. We start on November 17th in Lowell, MA (near Boston) and end December 19th in Vegas. 21 cities in 30 days.

Check www.guyfieri.com to see if he is coming to a town near you!!!!

Come back and check out what is happening on the Tour, there will be daily Blogs from every venue.

Salute to our Military Men & Women


Just back from a wonderful trip in "da islands"...Hawaii...land of never ending surf...jaw dropping sunsets...crazy good food...and more convenience stores per square foot than I have ever seen. And it was cool because everybody wore flip-flops just like us...they must have known we were comin'. While we were there, Lieutenent-Colonel-General Christian Vaughn (our Krew member who coordinates our Armed Forces Entertainment effort) made arrangements with the Navy for some teaching time with their culinary experts in the mess hall and then we launched a brand new demo at Bloch Arena for 1400 military troops and their families. What a great time and appreciative crowd! Guy and I were joined on stage by Guy's son Hunter who can rock a demo and apparently the young ladies like him too! And the entire day couldn't have happened without the help of Bart Bauer, and Lara Katine who were wonderful.

We cannot thank the men and women who serve our country from around the world enough...and the families who hold down the fort at home deserve a big Whahooo thank you!!!!

Guid, Christian and I did some surfing...caught some monster waves...2 foot surf is monster right? The locals nickanmed me Babaloo, which I think is Hawaiian for "wicked good surfer."

"Ya bra, you Babaloo...howzit yo shorts hang so low?"

"Cuz you scare all the whackadoo fish away...maybe better you go in.", I heard that a lot.

Then later we went backstage at the Aerosmith concert, where we met the famous Ken Onion who produces some sick knives for folks like Alton Brown. The crew around the band were awesome and when Joe Perry's wife swung by to say hi, we all just melted! Big tough Brian Gates who protects Steven Tyler took care of Hunter with guitar picks, drum sticks, and a set list that will be coveted keepsakes for years! Oh, and to Tony Fedewa and his crew back stage....you guys da bomb!

N.Y.C. is STILL talkin' !!!



The opening party a Chelsea After Dark to kick of the N.Y.C. Food & Wine Festival was a showcase for Guy and it apparently rocked even the most veteran N.Y. party goers. I am still getting emails about it! The band was off the hook throughout the night, backed by a sick light box featuring a picture of Guid shot at our famous Shoreline Show...(Ok, so we brought flames on stage and threw food...enough already!).





As guests came in to the "Knucklesandwich Party Palace" inside Chelsea Market, they were greeted by a giant neon sign that signaled...leave your inhibitions at the door! As soon as Guy showed up he was mobbed by fans. Thankfully we had some top notch security (Thanks Mike!!!) fully outfitted with the stern looks, earpieces for top secret communication, and military haircuts.




For a Guy who grew up in small towns in NorCal....Guy just had to look at the Palace and the throng of fans, and the media cameras shooting everything he did and say, "Wow...how did THIS happen...I am the luckiest guy in the world."




We signed autographs and partied till we closed the joint. I think everyone had a good time...I did!! Special thanks to the Brookettes from the Brooks Group who not only coordinated all the media...but helped with pictures, crowd control, and autographs. "Chachi Rocks!".


Oh, by the way....if you attended...or even heard about our party in New York....wait until you see what we have planned for the South Beach Food & Wine Festival! We are doing a party that will make N.Y.C. look like Kinder-Gym...Get your tickets now!

Ok, let's talk tiki torches, half naked drummers, limbo, rum drinks, LIVE latin music, the beach, bikinis,...oh, and our own yacht moored off-shore for special VIP get-ta-know-ya's....it is ON baby!
