    Smoke Gets in Your Eyes

    Wednesday was the worst day here.  The sky was orange in the afternoon with visibility of feet. I’ve never experienced anything like it before. It looked like the apocalypse out there. I have lots of KN95 masks left from the pandemic, so wore one while I was out driving (!) and that thankfully eliminated the burning stench. 

     

    It was much better yesterday and looks to be fairly normal out there this morning.

     

    I'm glad you're breathing easier! I hope that means the Canadian fires are beginning to be brought under control. The world has GOT to realize that climate change dangers don't recognize political borders. We're all in this danger together.

    By the way, I know you mean you have an Android phone, but I enjoy imagining that you have an actual android. 

     

    Ok, it worked perfectly on my PC. Thanks!
    And yes, didn't The Jetsons promise us all our own android? Where's my housecleaning Rosie and my damned flying car?

    And everywhere else! Sending love and a big gust of fresh air to everyone choking and gasping in the northeast of the country. I hope you are all managing to stay indoors and avoid the worst effects of the smoke. What an ugly, scary situation. :(

    Scribex6, you're my hero! I looked at that map this morning and never thought to hover over the seats. Now that I see that it has seat numbers when you do that, it turns out that all of my Ace seats are either right on the aisle or two seats off the aisle.

     

    Hovering how? I'm at this & even basically know where my seat is, but all I can seem to see is the view from what I believe to be my seat. Explain it to me like I'm 5. :)

    Are you looking on a PC or iphone? I have an android and I see no seat numbers.

    Yes, Pasadena Julie!

    Well at least you're inside the venue, right? Or should I say, left? :lol

     

    Also just a note...somebody really needs to work up a decent Ace seat map! That thing was useless. Blurry and unreadable. I still don't really know where one pair of my seats is...orch left but how left I don't know. Needs further research. (So maybe I shouldn't find your situation so funny until I check my own.:blush)

    Well, I'm ticketed for 3 of the 4 L.A. shows and while my Visa didn't burst into flames, it IS still hot to the touch and smoking a little! :P The ticket prices are fine; it's all the add-ons making it so expensive...venue fees and convenience fees and Our Stockholders Expect More from You fees. I think it worked out to about $108 per ticket. Ow. 

     

    I know it will be worth it though, come October!

    Watching Junior Drive - Jay Bennett

    Me and a friend of mine where having a discussion about Jay Bennett and we got to talking about the song "Watching Junior drive."  So we went to find it and couldn't.  I couldn't even remember what album it was on to go see if my long forgotten CD collection had it somewhere.  Does anyone know where I could track this down?

     

     

    Hey Kevin!

    I have to apologize because my reply above is wrong. I found my copy of Magnificent Defeat & it isn't on there. I know I have it but now I suspect it must be on a burned disc someone made for me. At any rate, here is the correct information for it: it was only ever released on a promo disc from that era:

     

    Jay Bennett - "Replace You + 5"

    Promo disc only

    Rykodisc PRCDV-20880

    Released 2006

     

    I spoke yesterday to Jay's dear friend & collaborator, Edward Burch, and Edward confirmed that it was only ever on that promo disc..."for now", as he added. He & I both think it's such a good song that it should get wider release! Maybe some future collection of Jay's music will make it more readily available. Good luck hunting down the promo disc. :spider2
