my friend tom greenleaf (may he rest in peace) made some
bumper stickers back in 83 that featured a cop car chasing some dead heads in a hertz rental car

the heads were all hanging out of the car
which was sporting a few stickers itself and the hertz tags and the black and white in pursuit had the siren going and the cops didnt look to happy chasing themsleves down a few deadheads..the TEXT on the sticker was in big black letters

"WHEREVER WE GO THE PEOPLE ALL COMPLAIN"

One morning after the 3rd HULT show in1983, we were in the lobby of the hilton next door to the hult with about 15 people ,checking out of the hotel and having bloody mary's,and chilling WITH PHIL LESH. PHIL was sitting in the lobby waiting on his ride or whatever, and this one HEAD had a box of bumper stickers he was letting PHIL look thru.

There must have been 50 or more stickers in there.

So i ran and got Tom and told him to bring his stickers to the lobby and give one to PHIL ...so phil is handed the a formentioned sticker and sez with the BIG PHIL LAUGH "HAW HAW i like this one but i wouldnt put it on my car ! "

When phil gets up to leave the HEAD offers phil his choice of stickers,
phil sez "no thanx man but i will keep THIS ONE!."

PHIL dug toms sticker WHEREVER WE GO THE PEOPLE ALL
COMPLAIN and he kept it

ANYWAY 2 days later in park city,UTAH we are walking
towards the gate when, from behind us on the road, CHEERS start to be heard rising from the DEAD HEAD foot traffic as LO and BEHOLD >>>PHIL is cruising up the drive towards the show,driving a dark blue rental from HERTZ accopanied by a woman in the passenger seat.>>>>

as PHIL cruises by us we see that THE MAN has put tom Greenleaf's sticker on the rear of his rental CAR

ALRIGHT PHIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was PHILS favorite sticker
and we just freaked YAHOO!!!!! screaming and waving at phils car and phil gives a nice little wave back man what a laugh true story

here is my sticker i kept that day too
