    It might be neat if The Dead would wear little video cameras on their heads in concert. It would be neat to look up at the big screens and see what they're seeing sometimes. It would also be cool on DVD. Nothin left to do but smile, smile, smile

    CC thanks
    For the link to the Jerry/Elvis article. I remember seeing that issue of Musician on a newstand, Jerry and Elvis staring right at me. As a big Costello fan, I was floored by the two of those guys together, and it was the only copy of Musician that I ever bought. Rereading the article, it's amazing what kind of real natural co-interviewing that's going on between the two....the "Musician" interviewer barely got a word in. Makes me really, really wish that Jerry was still around to be on Elvis' "Spectacle" show. It would have been a classic.

    CC are you trying to tell me
    That my Mom was paraphrasing Robert Hunter? Or that his Mom gave him the same crap as mine? (Probably the latter, as my Mom was doing the singing/crying thing in the early 60s).

    Anybody ever hear of this before?
    My Mom used to have this saying..."Sing at the dinner table, cry before bedtime." I never really knew if this was a subtle first shot at getting me or my siblings to shut up (or face the consequences!), or if it really was some kind of superstitious goobledygook. It was her fault that we all sang in the first place. She was always singing to the radio, singing without the radio, and we were always singing along with her. I couldn't sing worth a lick after my voice changed, but it doesn't stop me to this day. I love to sing! Anybody else ever hear of this? How about our Canadian friends? Mom came from the far northern reaches of Maine, near the border, grew up speaking French. Some strange translation? Or was she really a lot more sly than I've given her credit for?

thanks for the potato song again - Dark HalR, just had some great ones for supper. Just shared the song with my wife. But actually I live in Washington which is now the onion state. Am about 30 miles from the Idaho border. But we do grow yummy potatoes here. Ate my Washington potato with Washington onions. The Walla Walla sweet onion was designated our state vegetable in 2007. The potato growers wanted it to be the potato and the potato and onion farmer's lobbies each lobbied at the state house to have their vegetables made the official state vegetable. It was a close call but the Walla Walla sweet won. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

the thought of potato farmers and onion farmers duking it out in the state house for the right to be state vegetable. So funny it brings tears to my eyes! heheh

that our state dance is the square dance. I can just see it now, next time at the Gorge when the Dead play, thousands of Washington Deadheads square dancing away. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

bytheby, hal. giving credit where it is due, the title, "Dark Hal R" was an original idea come up by the Badger. hope your wife dug it. meanwhile, since i only got re-runs left inside of me here, I'll do a bit of one-up-manship with the badger: Cosmic Badger Cosmic Badger what's up with you You travel so far, that's what you do To 'WhereverthefuckitisStan' you flew Go on home, Mrs Badger's calling you Cooking up a pot of badger stew Light the fire -- put it under you Out the window a Great Tit flew Go on home, Mrs Badger's calling you Now you have just one more chance We all wanna see the Badger dance Trippin out and in a trance Poke my eyes, with a lance Meeting you in an airport bar Looking at the sky we see Dark Star Drinking beers all during the day My ears are clogged, 'what did you say?' You said you're a badger or are you a skunk Don't really know but there's a funk Is it you or is it me? Don't know, but CC's gotta pee CC Joe, the cops are on to you You are taking so damn long in the loo What you got there in your hand? What comes out is dry like sand You're feeling that 'itch' aren't you? Your old lady knows what you wanna do Poor old CC, please don't feel blue Turning her back she's just stalling you Stalling you Stalling you Stalling you Stalling you Maybe later, she says with a sigh Old CC is starting to cry No worries, mate. She's joking with you Get in bed, she says to you Get in bed, she'll be kind to you Get in bed, she'll be kind to you Get in bed, she'll be kind to you KIND TO YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually Gee, I didn't know Jimi received Washington sainthood? Everyday I eat my favorite apple, the Gala, your state fruit. My habanerro chili contains your state vegetable: a Walla Walla onion. Odds say that the goldfinch will fly over the banana slug, though.

I was just referring to the virtual food fight occuring in this blog. Oh and by the way, I prefer the term "referring" as in you get high through the kindness of a stranger rather than the one where you point at someone. What would Willie Do?

between the farmers at Farm Aid. I would want to have apples, peaches and corn on the cob, maybe a few melons. Would be very hard for the rice and wheat farmers to win in a food fight with their grains. But maybe then the wheat farmers would start chasing everyone around with those giant tractors and combines. What Would Wille Do?

I meant pissed as in perturbed that people would be fighting at his show, I doubt Willie gets "pissed" as in drunk anymore. Hal R,'s post really cracked me up. All you really need...

*** "I had a hard run" back when I was about 14/15, I ran the NYC marathon... way too hung over from partying the night before, got to the Staten Island side of the Verrazzano Narrows Bridge really late, sparking up to take the edge off... anyways, immediately after the race started I was the last of the runners. It was frigging embarrassing, I was literally fucking LAST coming off the 59th Street bridge, heading up First Ave, all through the Bronx, back down, and into Central Park, I was frigging last. Most of the crowd was actually cheering me on really loudly and supportively, yelling 'yo tie dye go!!' This guy in front of me, second to last, was making fun of me the whole way through the last few miles. With the finish line in sight, this mook says to me: "Hey kid, how does it feel to be last?" . I says: "You want to know?" and I dropped out. ( -; peace. (jojo the fish era)
