Dead duck

I wanted to come up for that one being I’ll be out of town for NYE. A local birthday killed my plan. Today I’m riding up to the trap to give some of the vendors gifts at their holiday bazaar. (Soda Ash and desiccant and shit from the shutdown of our production that I can help some heads out rather than send it to another company)

I did notice that the first weekend lines up w/the first weekend of March madness.

I’ll go back if it’s an all new show from last yea graphics wise. Gamblin mama is itching to go again after bringing home $40k last year. I told her if we go back I’m taking her to the sphere on a headfull of gummies she claims don’t do anything while she acts goofy as hell. 😆🤣

I did Grateville on the river in Louisville. BCE, hot brown smackdown, pranksters, grateful dads; Mr. Please; Captain midnight; pink talking fish todays bluegrass/old and in the way day. I’ll probably watch a little football early and roll over there later.

I did Indy last night and am doing pink talking fish in Covington tonight. Sam and his fiancé are still coming up for Billy tonight.

I did Lazy summer home this weekend. Highly recommend. Maybe same guy who owns the Trap owns this place? (I could be wrong) super cheap weekend. Not enough people to worry about bad bathroom conditions. Pool and shit. Reminds me of the black mountain KOA scenery wise. Cabins to rent but I reserved a car camp spot by a pond. Cool little Hyryder family owned place about 25 minutes from Deercreek. I literally stayed at a hotel off this same exit two weeks ago with Luke for phish. 2 weeks before that I did the ledges with Sammy and AC. Also this place is Right by the casino in Anderson and also near Uranus fudge factory. 🤣😆

The last “I guess it doesn’t matter, anyway” before the solo. The MSG run Sept 87 comes to mind. And that solo is shot out of a cannon and filled with rocket fuel.

I did both also. Just weed for phish, dosed for 2/3 of D&C. Can confirm not needed but took it to another level for sure.

I recommend it. I mean dead and co is what it is, but the sphere is the show and a mind blowing experience. Boys are going out that same weekend but I don’t think they’ll land in time for DSO. Dead visuals on that screen with that sound was craaaaaaaazy and I recommend catching it now because the Eagles have it next. 🤣

I’d say about 80% of my NCAA bball viewership was based on whether Walton was calling the game. I loved him now…….. But as a kid I f’ing hated his ass. I was an NBA nerd thru the Jordan years and my dad was a Larry bird Celtics fan. By the time Bill got to the C’s he was older and always hurt and cried about every call. It was Pre internet so I had no knowledge of UCLA or Trailblazer Bill. I just saw old broke down crybaby bill. And once my dad and I were in a memorabilia shop and there was a framed article on the wall. “Why Bill Walton was the greatest center to ever play the game of basketball” and my dad laughed his ass off as I ranted about all the guys I thought were a million times better. Best part was the the end of the article was in small print…. “Written by Bill Walton” 😆🤣🤣 I of course learned the legend of Walton and once I became a head obviously our relationship in my mind changed. He was an American treasure. I’d love to put out 1/10 of the love of life he showed when at a show or calling a basketball game.

Awesome weekend. Got to visit with many as we set ourselves up to be a pit stop on the way to stage from VIP. Stayed dry where it counts although we about lost a pop up by opening back up too soon after the storm. 🤣 my favorite sets (besides the 3 DSO shows) were Holly bowling, Greensky/Holly/Donato, Jeff and friends, and Keller grass. Another jubilee in the books. Always my favorite weekend of the year.

My guess is the US gov wants a bigger cut to continue to look the other way. still I’m hoping it improves things but when one super corrupt organization investigates a 2nd super corrupt organization, selfishly I don’t see things getting better for me. 😆🤣

I am seeing Disco Biscuits Tuesday but I’ll finally get to see Ms Emmy right before the jubilee

I saw Daniel Donato and cosmic country with Greensky bluegrass last night. Really enjoyed the show. Like seeing genres of music that don’t normally incorporate the extended jams, starting to stretch things out. They are both on the jubilee bill too so I’ll be seeing him again

Luke and I went to see the End of the Line Allman Bros tribute. I liked it better musically than Allman Betts family revival tour (although I enjoyed both). had a Buffalo Springfield for what it’s worth jam in blue sky and a spacey st Stephen jam in whippin post.
