    Poor Timing

    I’m reminded of the, probably apocryphal, tale of a well known British birder who left his wedding reception when he heard news of a rare bird that had turned up. Needless to say the marriage didn’t last.

    Currently listening to ‘Dresden’ by The Jan Garbarek Group. Takes me back to when we saw him with Eberhard Weber and Nana Vasconcelos at The Bluecoat Chambers in Liverpool.

    Never trust a Dennis, uh, I mean, a prankster

    Mrs. Grumpkins would not be amused by the scenario

    Proudfoot - real

    No.

    My wife told me that joke the other day. Best joke she ever told me. She read it with a real feel for humor.

    Generally, her funniest joke has been marrying me! (she's paying for that joke now!)

    Right place, right time

    So it’s 1980 and I’m at Gainesville for my 362nd show, but last minute parking lot buy leaves me in the nose bleed seats. I wander down for a beer and meets a guy at the concession stand.

    Guy says he has an extra ticket for the 3rd row and to follow him down.

    Down we go and sure enough, 3rd row center!!!

    I’m blown away (tripping balls at this point), but ask, “Don’t you need this seat?”

    Guy says, “No,,, that’s my wife’s seat and she died.”

    Great just what I don’t need to hear in my state, but ask “no friend or relative you could have asked?”

    He says, “no they’re all at the funeral”

    Odd juxtapositions

    One that does work for me is when they slotted Me and My Uncle in the middle of The Other One in 1971. 8/6/71 is a great example - there tucked away on cd4 on Dicks Picks 35.

    Maybe they were distracted by naked pole guy.

    Should have put the BMG in a different time slot.

    Fascinating to see them in action in 1978

    It's another show I thought of as "meh" for a long time. Today it sounded like the bells of heaven ringing.

Big Moon Ritual is a solid record, front to back.If you haven't heard their stuff, you should definitely check them out. Also, any live material you can find is worth a look.
