I saw them play two nights at the UIC pavilion,---- I think Margherita billed it as 'The Great 2009 Chicago Arena Tour' to insure induction into the hall ---- does that count? side note, I bought the night two poster last week during Wilco's sale for $5. They didn't have night one available.

I hope all the members get in - but I think the hall actually does the picking and for some reason I don't think those past members will get the nod, guessing Tweedy will have some influence, though. I am guessing Leroy will get in because he was the two above records and those two were successful, award and sales wise.

When they ever get into the hall, I am guessing, beside the current members, only Ken and Leroy will be part of it and maybe not even those two. But who knows. It would be a real shame if Leroy was not involved.

Almost won tickets to the Weir show today from XRT -- was caller 6 - they wanted 10.

Guessing ashes are mentioned, right? Ha!

Finally listened to Colorado via the library - not bad.

I really enjoyed the 2nd night at the Chicago Theatre last year --- that being said, I can skip this time around. It was great just seeing a trio up on stage - it helped that I had great seats and the crowd around me was great. Security let a lot things slide, which was a bit odd for the venue. I think the tape holds up, too.

Below is the Chicago Theatre seating chart. I would stay in the triple and double letter range. The booths and mezzanine levels are nice, too. Great place to see a show. https://www.theatreinchicago.com/seating.php?theatreid=103

Pete is talked about a lot --- tough gig, being a manager of the Crowes and Roth...wonder if he has any easy clients?

I don't remember any Van Halen/Roth stories.

Yeah I got the book from my library -- he does have some cool stories about the Stones and their time with Page and Plant.

I about 3/4 through Gorman's book -- it is wonder that these two are back together, of course it is about money - but so it goes. I can see why Gorman is not involved, it seems like he has been quitting the band since the mid 90's. The book is entertaining enough -- basically on one page Gorman calls Chris and asshole, then calls Rich one on the next page, then back to Chris, back to Rich and on and on and on.

A person on the Hoffman board shared the below Google drive link to all The Golden Road issues. They were always a good read back in the day. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1J76VacLm-GQ47pzXolTjaVZz4tKWea9q

Yep - just on the 1st song, Things Have Changed. It was nice to see. Great, great performance, overall. Would recommend this tour if he passes through.

After every comic book run - a stop at KFC, where he crotched the bucket and the heat from the chicken helped to deteriorate the seat ---- it's all coming together, now...

Ha!

I can't picture Garcia ever riding the below - but who knows. https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/25922/lot/350/?category=list&length=12&page=5

Below is a link for all the Garcia stuff up for bid. You ain't kiddin' about the comic books, jw -- quite a bit of them. https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/25922/#/!

I am guessing the Garcia Estate still owns the stuff up for auction.

Man, I would love to own the Alligator. https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/25922/lot/323/ It's kinda of crazy that it was originally bought by Nash for $250.

Bob Dylan

'eh I find him amusing -- he has an impossible gig.

I have the book on hold at my library --- looking forward to it.

yeah - looking forward to Dave's pick -- I am sure I have heard the show before, but I am horrible at remembering such things.
