THE AMERICAN PHOTO OP IS KILLING US

"Get me the hell out of this, Mike," Warner Records co-Chairman/COO Tom Corson discreetly texted to EVP Promotion and Commerce Mike Chester during this photo op with two HITS staffers. "Who are these people?" Chester, as ever, replied, "New phone. Who dis?" The occasion, of course, was Green Day's blazing show at Amazon Music Live in L.A., and everyone was soon blissfully throwing goat. Seen just before asking Alexa for another round of mojitos are (l-r) Warner's Ben Farber, Chester, Corson and HITS' Jesse MacMillan and Nicole Ghapgharan.
