Holy shit, I won!  I got tix to some show on Sat nite, and the local scene CD.  It hasn't even been announced yet.

The 3rd song was Zep, "the Lemon Song."


but the prize isn't a lemon!  congrats!


I gather "lemon" was the tie that connected all of them (Lemonheads, Oranges and Lemons, Lemon Song)? What does Xavier Rudd have to do with lemons?


There Are No Coincidences, Chapter CXI: I've been listening to the Technicolor Web of Sound station tonight, and an hour ago heard a song by the Purge called "The Mayor of Simpleton Hall"; I planned to post a query here about whether that's where XTC got the phrase, or if they have a common origin.

And weirdly, when I saw those first two songs, the lemon connection came instantly to mind.

Congrats on the win, Mark!  I'd offer to go, but I'm not a cheap date.   :P

Hey Gang,  I am serious about needing a date for Saturday night, Christina has no interest in going & furthermore has had a lot more 'buddy time' of late than I have, so she wants me to hang out with my friends.  But for better or worse I don't have too many other friends that I can invite out for such an event than y'all.

hearing these "Local Scene" promos... the band Tea Leaf Green sounds just like the Dead; and Thriving Ivory are ringers for Train.  But hey they're LOCAL!

Didn't go.  Went to a BBQ at my brother-in-law's instead.  Too last minute for everybody.  Got the Local Scene CD in the mail already, will pop it into the CD player tomorrow.

This one's for Geoff--have you heard the commercial KFOG just started running for the Hard Rock Cafe and their exhibition of Jerry's art? There's a music bed behind it that certainly COULD be Jerry, but doesn't sound like any Dead song (or JGB for that matter) that I recognize. Can you place it?
Let's get right to it.

I was wondering the same thing.  But there's so much Jerry, and I assume they'd only use Jerry solo music, as Jerry and the Dead are not allowed to work together anymore.

Here's an example.  This sticker cannot be sold anymore because the Bears are GD icons, and as such cannot  work with Jerry anymore:

Huh? (Outside of the fact that Jerry's dead, that is.) Can you elaborate? (I have a suspicion this has something to do with the Widow Garcia and her management of the estate. Grrrr.)

Nice avatar, btw.

The former Ms. Deborah Koons. The one he was married to at the time he died. The gold digger.

Alas my memory is spotty on the specifics of the machinations of Mrs. Garcia-Koons in the wake of her husband's death. I do remember something about her trying to cut Jerry's ex (Carolyn aka Mountain Girl) and his daughters out of the will. I'm pretty sure there were some other misdeeds as well, but not recalling the specifics at the moment. I imagine Geoff could fill in some on this, but given his affiliation with the GD community, I would not blame him at all if he preferred not to do so.

Sounded really great on the Morning show at 9:45, preset: Gimme Shelter, with the fabulous Merry Clayton on backing vocals. Anyone have any memory of her solo take on that song? A friend swears it exists, but I haven't heard it in decades, if ever.
