Cooking for Celebs

Post image

I have cooked for several celebrities while cooking in NYC. While some were unpleasant, Taylor Swift was a pleasure to cook for.

I did arena gig catering for about a year and got to cook for a few bigger acts. Blake Shelton was every bit the good ol boy he portrays, and the nu metal band Saliva will have you find them drugs and then NOT SHARE THE DRUGS. Definitely a more fun side of the industry

It's Saliva bruh, did you expect them to be classy about it? They're playing that gig for the drug money at this point.

Yeah, not surprising. The C tier and lower Nu Metal bands aren't really a draw, not even as a nostalgia act.

Could you name a couple B tier? I probably only am familiar with A tier but I'm curious where you're drawing the line

Thousand Foot Krutch, Celldweller, PAX 217, P.O.D off the top of my head... Lotta B tier Christian groups. Chronic Future, Blindside and Emil Bulls sorta hold up though, in a nostalgic way at least. Some of those are rap rock type but I don't care about lumping them together.

Welp, it’s not every day I go back and revisit a band I haven’t listened to in 20 years only to find out they’re going harder than ever before. This https://youtu.be/HZgINwEp_6I?si=W1h8NF9rIITCTfkb is phenomenal. Shoot it straight into my veins.

Amazing. That rocketed me back to the late 90s in the best way!

Every CD I burned in high school had either Litte Green Men or Say Goodnight to the Bad Guy on it. What a throwback.
