Grateful Dead

With an extra $600 I could get that boxed set.
We all have our priorities. To each his own.
Cheers and good luck VGK and Vguy. Will be fun.

uh...no.

....Stanley Cup finals here we come!!
The bad news. Cheapest tickets are $600!?
No vinyl for me next month.

The only time I heard Michael Hedges live was when he opened for JGB in December 1984 in Seattle.

sheetmon. 38.5 years ago.

I remember Jerry looking...rather unhealthy.

So, I have decided to root for the Golden Knights because I have to back my man VGUY!!

Also, I did catch that Leo Kottke/Michael Hedges tour. It was sublime. I saw Mr. Hedges approx. 40 times, mostly in the '80's when he would do a lot of local shows due to his being a student at the Peabody Conservatory of Music.

Speaking of birds, A female duck (not sure which genus) has decided to lay and hatch eggs behind our house in the mulch we put down. I'll Keep Y'all posted on developments.

If it's 3 OF my favorite Hendrix tunes and not MY ABSOLUTE 3 favorites, i can do that:

Are You Experienced
If 6 Was 9
Jam Back At The House-As it appeared on the Woodstock 2 S/T- This is more a childhood memory thing, always LOVED hearing this from the Woodstock 2 Soundtrack!!
That was easy!!

Go Knights!!
Music is the Best!!

A few years ago I went to a high school football state tournament playoff game. A student from one of the schools played the Star Spangled Banner Hendrix style before the game. He did a good enough job that he received a standing ovation. I'm not sure the other high school students even knew what he was doing but me and my friend enjoyed it immensely. Pretty cool for a high school kid.

Jimi Hendrix was supposed to play at the Frost Amphitheatre on July 4th 1970, but the show got cancelled. I was to young to go, but my brother would have gone.

A guy I used to work with, who was 10 years older than me had the opportunity to see the Jimi Hendrix Experience in London in early 1967. He passed it by...reason being he didn't like pop music - just jazz. A bit of a conversation stopper. He looked at me as though to say "And was I wrong?" How to break it to him.
Just goes to show you can be the right age, in the right place, in the right year...and still miss out on the action.

Rock You!
No, not an inane nod to “Classic Rock” radio, but to the Glittering Knights! Congrats VGuy. Credit due to Las Vegas: that is quite a team for guys have. On to Florida!

....he's conveniently talking about the weather in Sacramento.
It's going to be 77 degrees tomorrow. Yeah. Thanks.
