My very first New Year's Eve
My very first New Year's Eve show. My very first California show. My very first...and only...time being dosed at a show without my knowledge at the time. Zip-Bang!!!!
My 1st new year's also!
The Brass Band did Ravel's Bolero. Mindblowing.
Best New Year for Me
My first show in Cali, as well. WOW the San Fran Civic. Maybe it was just because it was California (doubt it), but I thought it was AWESOME !
Bill on his lightening bolt, the balloons, and the Nevilles. Got to see more
New year's shows, but NOT there. Fairly small venue & we stuck it out on floor for the whole show - seriously we NEVER left our "area", not even to go pee (didn't drink much-did NOT need to-we were not touching the ground as it was. Didn't matter, too much fun on the floor then. I had just realized they REALLY never play any two shows the same. That is a challenge unless "the music plays the band". Favorite thing - my first Scarlet - Fire......still lovin' it.
peace
shut out
Only New Years I went to of the 8 New Years runs I saw that I got shut out of . Saw first two night but couldn't pull the New Years ticket. Bummed. Made the best of it listening with like minded freaks off of KFOG.
Shakedown
This Shakedown Street just rocks.
It's available on the So Many Roads CD.
Volleyball
What an awesome show. It was my only New Year's Show. A friend gifted me the ticket, I hitched out from Boulder and sought relief from a life not being so kind. Played volleyball with Bill Graham and family on the main floor before the show, won a ticket to a show at Berkeley. Shakedown, Scarlet Fire, The Wheel, Baby Blue - Amazing...
