Hey Dave, I just discovered that I still have my ticket stub from seeing the Experience Hendrix show with you!  Been in a back corner of my wallet ever since.

The last line of this song was used to great effect in the graphic novel Watchmen, and they used it perfectly in the movie adaptation as well.
"Music is the Earth, People are the Flowers, and I am the Hose."

Excellent, that show really was quite an Experience, with all those great guest guitarists!

WOS "Sugaree."  Aural heroin.
but this is Jerry/Dead when they were *good*  ;)
kinda funny, I can usually count on Mike to needle me with anti-GD comments, but here's a song (not the Dead but Jerry's solo) that I really think is quite unremarkable compared to other choices, and he likes it!  Go figure!
 ;D
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

Any interest (yourself, or anyone else really) to see Los Lobos next week at the Mountain Winery?
