Because I know what the guys look like and am no big fan of fighting drunken A-holes to be up front, my guest and I sat in the folding chairs toward the back of the pavillion (behind the soundboard and the almost completely empty "reserved seating" section). The sound back there was clear and loud and just plain awesome. I didn't encounter any A-holes at all. There were lots of families with little kids and everyone seemed to be having a good time in the back with the kiddos dancing and generally being maniacs. It was high energy and fun without any hassles. It was my guest's first time

Oh, cool. Thanks for the advice. We'll definitely do that. Scott

Bob Seger, 1976 Cobo Hall

We're staying at a hotel right on Main and hopefully within walking distance of the Pavillion, so anything within walking distance afterward is cool with me. Scott

You're the one with the funny hat, right? Maybe I'll see y'all there. Going to hit up a visit to Monticello in the morning. Anyone meeting up ahead of time? dcd

You ought to be able to get to C-ville from Lynchburg quicker than that. It's just s straight shot up 29. Granted, it's hilly, but you can probably speed most of the way. I never used to see many cops until you get around Amherst on the way back. I left Lynchburg for NoVa last April and haven't missed the place at all. Well, the one good thing Lynchburg did for me was introduce me to the choco shakes at Chik-Fil-A. anyway, dcd

We always refered to it as the "Mugger Mover". anyway, dcd

You know, we just might... if you can add "Check Your Head" to that list like I think I have to, I can at least confirm that we are kindred spirits. Oh, speaking of adding to the list... the first two Zep albums did a lot for me, too. dcd

In no particular order: Neil Young - Tonight's the Night - booze, drugs, heartache. It fit my life then. Neil Young- Live Rust Beatles- everything they ever did, but particularly Sgt. Pepper the 1st time I heard it in the 7th grade at Dave McConell's house on his dad's turntable. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - no discussion necessary, but it came at just the right time. Beasties- Paul's Boutique. We were in on something that just about nobody else was in on; made it that much better. I'm sure there are more, but can't think of them off hand. dcd

That would be great. I'd really dig hearing it again. dcd

Wow. I would've liked to have been there and I'm not a huge Phish fan or anything. Ever see that boot floating around? I'd dig another copy. I actually had it on cassette tape and somebody lifted it. dcd

I used to have a boot of Phish doing the entire White Album on New Years Eve and they did Don't Pass Me By as a pretty rockin' bluegrass tune. I wish I could find that again... dcd

We Can Work It Out and Baby's In Black. dcd

Pete Best dcd

Yes, and I'm listening to Abbey Road right this very moment. dcd

Funny, I JUST heard this on the WRIF's stream of Drew & Mike. I definitely like the Jesus bit better than the Bus bit. dcd

Also sprach Zarathrusta > See See Rider dcd

SarahC- You guys aren't named after Herbie Hancock's surprise 1983 break-dancing hit, "Rockit, are you? dcd

Nope, but the Rolling Stone email I got this morning says he is scheduled to be on Craig Ferguson tonight. dcd

and I Will Not Be Sad in This World by Djivan Gasparyan. (I have a thing for Duduk music). dcd

dcd

Oops. In my excitement, I jumped the gun. Besides, you have to admit, my thread title is MUCH better than that other one. Ah well. dcd

HELP! (clicky to view trailer) From the Beatles.com newsletter: I'm sure glad I didn't spring for a $100 eBay boot with crappy subtitles. anyway, dcd

I still give the Something to Remember Me By disc a spin sometimes. I have a couple Noise Addict singles on 10", I think, too. I sort of lost interest when I heard the Breathing Tornados disc, although the version of Cigarettes Will Kill You on the Grand Royal Sampler tape was really good. Ben did a cool version of Christine Aguilera's "Beautiful" on Morning Becomes Eclectic a few years back, too. You can probably find it in their archives or by googling or something. Maybe I'll have to give the new Ben a listen. anyway, dcd

Got mine. I scored some SWEET G.A. tix. dcd
