Question
Who is he?  Is this Lollipop Gestapo?

Thanks in advance

Answer
Hi Italia!

He is both legend and reality. Legend has it that the Lollipop guy just started showing up at shows with a huge back of lollipops and spent his time handing them out to everyone.  Apparently the band thought this was a grand idea because rumor has it that they have given him a permanent pass to their shows.

My friend Leslie had the honor of being close to Lollipop guy during this past tour and she said Dave was very interactive with him.

That's all I know about him.  But the story continues . . .
