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.

I was talking about checking out the Ready or Not from the library --- I am a subscriber to the Dave's Pick releases, so I will be getting a copy of that.

Yeah, definitely just a library check out for me.

Finishing up Alice Munro's, The Beggar Maid --- a great set of stories.

Finally see the real reason why Richards bugs Analogman so much--- all because of what Keith said about the Bee Gees in 1969 in a Rolling Stone interview: It is kinda funny - Keith has bagging bands since, at least, '69. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/keith-richards-a-1969-rant-242634/

Never easy hearing about a death, but 78 a great, ripe age. I think he was still writing until the end for various people. Wish he could have wrote at least one tune for Dead & Co -- but that probably would have been to close to the bone with him, not to mentioned that probably neither the band or him had any desire to do so. Always enjoyed that he was such a private dude, for the most part. I followed his travel/concert blog that he kept, during the late 90's or maybe early '00's - always was an interesting read. Only caught him play a few times, with two of those times at the Terra

2 pitches - jeez. Horrible, indeed! And again just now in the 9th, they give up the lead. Being a White Sox fan -- I was just hoping for a Chicago team in the playoffs -- not likely, now.
