With George Knapp as host...

By the way, is Knapp a common Mormon name?

In Vegas: My boss, real estate agent, next door neighbor and George were all Knapp in Vegas.  Wondering...

Hi Art!

Funny the nostalgia of two little words.I confess it made me smile, and a little sad.

Yeah, good one, Roz!

Remember when I said on the GabCast that I had all of these messages Art sent to people but they never went anywhere because Art kept replying to the "You've got a personal message" notification email?  Well, I've gone ahead and forwarded all of those along to the intended recipients.  What a job that was.

Fuck me man.  Now I find out Art tried to send me six PM’s asking me to be host of MITD.

His starting offer before negotiations is twice or what he and Keith ended up paying heather.


Thanks for the flakey email/PM system that boomer art couldn’t finger out MV.  This heather business is now officially YOUR FAULT.

This is so sweet. Sincere, heartfelt condolences for Art from Airyn’s family in the Philippines, who clearly loved him. Too bad these type of sentiments have been eclipsed by the selfish ongoing drama of Art’s so-called friend.

From May Ann Ruiz -
No exact words to say goodbye Art Bell.

This is what I like to see. Not what HW is doing on FB. Or is she saving the pithy comments for her live show on Monday?

Knapp is originally from Stockton, California

They didn't offer direct and specific condolences to Heather and express how sorry they are for the pain Heather must be feeling in her moment of singular grief over which she has a monopoly?  How cold and unfeeling.

Wow! Thanks for posting Lt.Uhara.  Really happy to see this heartfelt post from Airyn & Art's Family. It's comforting that Airyn, Asia and Baby Alex have support not only from friends but from all Airyn's family.
Don't know all the circumstances surrounding Art's first few marriages, but Art obviously had love for his family, that in itself stands for a whole lot.
On the other hand, the recent adolescent temper tantrum from the absent / current host of MITD is nothing more than attention seeking plots to escalate her own agenda.  How's this working for you so far HLW?
What kind of "friend" would you call yourself when you put your grief ahead of a grieving widow and children? I really believe you should be (Redacted)  from anything Art Bell.
We Vaguely Loveables found out how loyal of a friend you can be right after Art made you producer.  You left BellGab like we were a burning / smoldering pile of crap.
Just sayin....

Larry Mantle Show- 89.3 KPCC (Southern California Public Radio-www.scpr.org) interview today with Michael Harrison of Talkers magazine regarding Art. Well done.

[Sean92008]

Knapp is originally from Stockton, California

Birthplace is irrelevant, it's where they congregate that counts.

[Sean92008]

Like in life, this thread is dead compared to MitD with Heather Leona Wade.  Hair-on-fire whackiness for that nut job.

[ItsTelly]

They didn't offer direct and specific condolences to Heather and express how sorry they are for the pain Heather must be feeling in her moment of singular grief over which she has a monopoly?  How cold and unfeeling.

And Heather is quite pissed about it.  Heather thinks: How can they 'forget' Heather?  They must have done so on purpose to kick her when she is already going through so much.

In happier news. my copy of The Art of Talk came today!  Can't wait to read it.  I should have picked up a copy when you could have bought them all day long for $10 in the bargain bin. I paid over $100.  Won't be surprised in a few years if its $300 or $400.  That's what happened with all of R. Gary Patternson's books.

And they probably didn’t let her play the bumper music that SHE had chosen for Art’s funeral either.

I will wear that as a badge of honor.

Gotta wonder about that C. Crane catalog with Asia and her "I love radio" design.

Why do they need to "donate a dollar for her future?"

Jus' wond'rin'

Because Art bequethed everything to his secret gay lover........Jazmunda


Now you know why Jaz has been lying low.

Well, to be fair, they don't speak radio

[PB the Deplorable]

And they probably didn’t let her play the bumper music that SHE had chosen for Art’s funeral either.

I really hope not.  Airyn and her kids weren't involved with the show, but even if they were how is that appropriate at a funeral?

I haven’t heard anyone say she was even there.

Art was a drama queen.  Everything in his life was nuts.
