    Rough day
    Time to change the way I've been feeling today, with good music. Just found myself laughing uncontrollably out of pure joy. Worry move out of my way, because I'm feelin' alright.May a smile light all of your faces.

    same story...
    Going to be the best sort of garden day... potting and puttering. It's the time of summer where the potted plants begin to grow monstrous, and I remind myself that I was supposed to cut back this year. Mutant-ly large petunias are rampant, and it smells like a Victorian lady's bust -- powdery sweet and a little overdone. Blissful high pressure ruled the weather last week, but the heat and humidity are creeping their way back. I can feel the barometer dropping, and it's going to feel like NOLA around here, real soon. So, I'm out to enjoy it while I can. I need to work today, but that's for later this afternoon, when it's icky outside. ttfn...

    Good to see you Ms Katniss and King George..... Trixie has certainly helped transform the bus into a mobile jukebox.....her energy is infectious.... Our destination is not important....the mere fact that we remain together in mind and spirit fuels that elusive fire of kindness.... This one goes out to Kristine...... As I am strolling down the garden path, I saw a flower glowing in the dark. It looked so pretty and it was unique; I had to bend down just to have a peek. Hello old friend, It's really good to see you once again. Hello old friend, It's really good to see you once again. I saw you walking underneath the stars; I couldn't stop 'cause I was in a car. I'm sure the distance wouldn't be too far If I got out and walked to where you are. An old man passed me on the street today; I thought I knew him but I couldn't say. I stopped to think if I could place his frame. When he tipped his hat I knew his name. Nothing left to do but smile, Smile, SMILE!

    Walk along with me to the next bend? Nice to see you all here. I used the very last leftover Giordano's pizza plate with my lunch yesterday. Profound? haha.

    @The Kindness
    ...hey, 'morning...that seat taken? thanks...just musing away on a Sunshiny Saturday, as that second cuppa Joe that rjrrjr handed me is just about sipping temperature. We had a blast leading up to the shows,didn't we, and had a bigger blast at the shows, and will continue to have a blast afterwards huh, for the music never stops. Brain might rest, body says whoa, but the music? Listen...there it is... And to all you wranglers and wranglerettes of the merchandise, I share the frustration, which can dang near happen anytime you order stuff on-line. Thanks for the heads up on the sizes, and I'll amend my order for the tie dyed socks accordingly. Mickey said at the close of the 07/05 show, "...take this feeling with you, and be kind." Those are words to live by. How many of us, in a quiet time close our eyes...not you dus briver...and hear the music...I do, and smile inward and outward and take a big breath and sometimes sighhhh as I let it out. Kindness. The memory of our preparation, the anticipation, the excitement of those emails, our meet-ups, the fantastic shows, the family, the handshaking strangers, the lights, the pic-a-nic, the vibe, the love, and always always the music itself...what a grand experience we all had and are having. Sure, each journey was different, and even though we arrived at our destinations mostly separately at different times in body, we were together and spot-on in spirit. Thank you family...and as you go thru the weekend and week ahead, don't sweat the little stuff..and it's mostly all little stuff, my Sister says...and listen for the ripple in still water. Sure, you can try to figure out who didn't toss the pebble, and why the dang wind isn't blowing; matters not. Reach out your hand if your cup be empty, and if it ain't? Well, you know all the rules by now, and the fire from the ice...Be Kind... The Gold of Sunshine can warm you, as can the memory of all those magical experiences...take that feeling with you...and Be Kind... geosunshinedaydreamersforevermeister

    fare thee well merch
    That's odd, I'm usually a medium or a large and when i tried shirts before the show, the medium is what fit. Good quality too, maybe they only put out the cream of the crop at the show and saved the cruddy stuff for online sales?

    re FTW Merch...
    It's a shame that many of us, and really all I'm sure, were whacked by the off-sizing scale the merch mfg used in these items. When I bought my hoodie in Chicago, no kidding, as an "XL" t-shirt dude, I was upsized to a 4XL hoodie. It fits perfect - loosely like a hoodie should but 4XL? Never in my lide would I have ordered a "tent" hoodie. Lana's ladies tank was the purple $60 item and it was garbage. Logo off center and crooked. What a joke. Insult to injury was plunking down another $5.95 for express ship back to Ontario, CA (and the trip up and back to the USPS) for the shipping. Rich said it best...it's ovah !!!

geopondermeister hit a home run. He's a masterful facilitator that always brings things back together and makes since of it all. Much like Sam Elliot's narration on the Big Lebowski. No one means to pee on The Dude's rug. It ties the room together.

I haven't been here for a while, but if the mayor is still Klang, he passed on the Dear Jerry tix as he was already offered them. The kind soul passed the gent with the extra onto me, I accepted and then life got in the way... Peace

not having caused enough trouble for one day i will add this tidbit. FB is abuzz about a cryptic announcement of an announcement. A DJ on KFOG this evening said an announcement is coming friday. i research such rumors because i have nothing better to do with my time. three unrelated people confirmed hearing it. no one had the exact wording but the announcement may be about added shows or just the simulcast details. either way- a DJ from the stationed messaged me and confirmed to tune in at noon on friday for the 'announcement'. i hate to spread rumors but lack of definitive answer is what drove dear klang mad. maybe we will have those answers on friday. i for one will be tuned in at noon.

Rough night last night, T-Horse kept hogging all the blankets. Shopping for a wagon as the sound system got too big for T-Horse. Couldn't get the speaker placement just exactly perfect. Starting to resemble The Wall of Sound. Gotta remember to turn it down a little as we pass by towns on our way to Chicago. 100% Fishhead Music.

I like the idea of using a wagon and trailer. T-Horse is claiming it's customary for the rider and horse to switch off.Is he right? Says all he eats is Spaghetti-O's and canned chili. How many cans do I feed him? I don't think I can believe everything he says. He's only been here one day and has everything screwed up.

"Thanks For The Information". McKenzie Bro's are an excellent source for informational " how to" videos. Check em out on you tube. Hi boo, this horse never stops talking. He's fluent in six languages. Claim's he's the inspiration behind "The Most Interesting Man In The World" commercials. Seems he drinks way too much beer for that to be true.

Just got a great idea. We can all gather at Klang's place. Have huge bon fires, play music all night. RRRRGRRR can whip up some of his world renowned breakfasts. Anyone know if Klang has a pool. Oh well, it's California, surely some of his neighbors do. T-Horse says he has some swim trunks. Ah, this is gonna be epic. Klang's gonna love it!!!!

Santa Clara will be announced tomorrow. Shhhhhh. Don't tell Klang,it's a surprise. First a surprise party at his house and now this. Is this July 'cause it sure feels like X-mas! Really, tomorrow. Be ready Klang in case tickets go on sale immediately. I can't bare to witness another shut-out. Unfortunately all my money is spent on pre and post parties in Chicago.

Cat might be let out of the bag tomorrow. KFOG's gonna announce the Klang Dang Doodle immediately following the Santa Clara announcement. Tickets will be available through TicketMaster. Man, if he gets shut out on his own gig. Just wouldn't be right.

Let's roll with Dead Lurches. They wrote some original material. "Tweets" will be their encore. Original lyrics sung to the tune of Fluffhead (Phish). Bill will be bouncing his balls (around the room, obviously). He's a closet Phish-head. It's well documented.
