    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?

Hey folks,I am heading out tomorrow to go raft the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon for 16 days. Time to shift into the geological time zone. Back in mid July. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

Hal R The river so white, the mountain so red...happy rafting on the great Colorado. There's an Arapahoe Indian saying..."you'll always come back" so no need to be sad once you've returned :) Johnman DEFINITELY sending galaxies of healing light and warmth to you...and to Johnman and CCS geez I know you hate the sesame oil idea (Jman) BUT organic sesame oil -cosmetic/not to eat doesn't really smell/can get at a Whole Foods (bronze cap). It really helps sore shoulders, joints.rub in affected area w/ knuckles towards the heart.Camphor, menthol etc STUFF can be too heating/organic sesame oil is neutral and calming/honest ;) Big thanks to the May 11th link to the LA show, petewilgoren (grate interview, behind the scenes, opener etc) I'm in LA...didn't go but listened and threaded online and what a moment! Wharf Rat ..the excitement you could feel...all of LA in an octopus garden with Wharf Rat tentacles LOL L

The drive from Yosemite to Tahoe is spectacular-I was there once in early June and it snowed really heavy in the mountains. Being from miami it was kind of freaky and cold !!!Saw the String Cheese Incident at Harrahs And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

Get rid of an earworm song? Yesterday, YESTERDAY I listened to Diana Krall's "Quiet Nights", and hanging in there near the end of the album, catching me unawares, was a cover the of BeeGees' "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart." I've never liked the BeeGees, grew to loathe them during the disco era, but Krall does this very nice cover and suddenly I've got the BeeGee's version in my head and it won't go away!! ARRRGHH!!

Way better advice than I got from one of my "friends": I got a message to get to you on this. I think the way to get the song out of your head will happen when all the lights go out in Massachusetts… and I’m not just starting a joke here. Perhaps this is just jive talking. But this one seems to be be like antibiotic-resistant staph, no killing the sucker. Right now I'm stuck at work, no streaming allowed on my computer, no music to listen to, just trapped inside my head with frakkin' song. Does DP 24 come in pill form?

Focus, my man, focus! Just keep chanting to yourself: Some folks trust to reason, others trust to might. I don't trust to nothing, but I know it come out right." That should cure you of your current bout of Saturday Night Disease. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

You've talked me down, the demon song has vanished. Or at least given way to Joe Cocker's "Hitchcock Railway." Don't know why it was that song, just glad it was something I like. Happy Friday!
