    On the date of August 20th, 2007, the hysterics & ironic occured, & it just keeps netting worse! Rhinoceros's were allegedly accused of interloping with the daily bread of all those who would have made the once & past record label king. Alas, also, to mute manners worse, monetary items are the probable causation. Witnesses say that above the Purple Majesty, there was a brilliant darkness swooping all underneath the MP3 files, & that soon all should become dust. Oh, well, just goes to shop...

Spent the day in Utah with the band up in the hills, where at least one person was observed entering the show under the canopy of a parachute, with purple smoke trailing behind him; some folks had set up a tarp in the middle of the crowd, upon which target the parachutist then made his graceful landing. As he passed over my head, I could see that he was dancing and had a ticket in his hand. Just a day like any other day, back when we had a Grateful Dead.
