Forum MVP Tea Posted September 25, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 So...I'm not going. If I go, I'd be homeless after that. While this has some nostalgic value on some level, I'm going to keep things on the rails for a while longer. (Read: Cold Rain and Snow). Anyway, please chime in if your going so we know who to bug for reviews. The band should be well rested and ready to wail. Some surprises in store? Have fun bitches !

Forum MVP Supplicated Velvet Thunder Posted September 25, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Gabe and I are going! I just ran into some of the usual suspects (you know, the bear suit guy, etc, lol hehehe) at Furthur and it sounds like there will be a nice group of us kids on the bus! We may or may not have a car full of those seeking the DSO magic.... will know by Friday morning when we load up and roll out. Floods kinda stole some energy from some CO folk (the fireman saved my bunny from his hutch flooding, go fireman!!!!) Um.... we got into Furthur Sat night and although first set was AMAZING (they were really letting Johnny PLAY, I mean, he was leading that big ol band!), I have to say that their version of Dark Star that night really hurt me... they tried to do it "diff" and it just sounded like a silly showtune.... Everyone else loved it (everyone else loved the shoreline show, too) but I just could NOT get into it. Too bad for me. And too bad for all those people that they won't be there this weekend to see DSO throw it down in the ways I crave when I listen to the tapes and imagine myself to have not been born too late. Like the spun girl that we drove to our friends so she didn't have to drive or find a place to stay... guess that's why we really got in... she REALLY loved that second set! I'm just STOKED on some JKBand touring when they take a break next year...... is that so wrong or selfish? I just want more people to get to stand in front of the man on the reg instead of in the umpteenth row..... the magic is more easily transferred when that is the case. He had a pretty cool mala on, which would have been nice to actually see instead of just through the big screen. I don't really LIKE shows where they need a BIG SCREEN to show you. Dear DSO, please do not ever play venues where I (we) have to watch you on a big screen. But please do play red rocks next year, since I will be there in line early enough to beat all those people I never see anyway to the front. (I actually think i have seen you on big screens at festies or something, but just don't do this regularly!) We got miracles for Furthur from DSO family (of course!) and my friend (yours, too!) started telling me how she knows I love JK but DSO REALLY has it going on right now and I tried to explain I haven't been absent at DSO cause I've been at Furthur (I mean, COME ON!), I have simply been way busy working a 9-5 (or 8-6, whatever, the hours are still only 20 a week instead of 40 as promised!) I am usually the one telling everyone that same ol rag about DSO stealing my face on a more regular basis than any other act touring today. It's just the way it is. But this whole working thing is only gonna happen til spring, then we are doing WEST COAST TOUR fully, since the lease will be over and I will be leaving my job to go to the retreat center all summer and escape only for shows..... then back to school next fall, its Masters time and I'm thinking tibetan buddhism is as good a thing to get some paperwork in as any.... will have mandala and seed syllable patches very soon! Anyways, we will be staying in our car barring invitations for floor space (we share beds mighty kindly, too! hehehe) on this run, so that means we will have ample time to post reviews each night! OH YEAH YELLOWSTONE RUN 2013!!!!! KISS KISS!!!!!!! (miss you, Tea!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted September 25, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I will have a full car coming to the Jackson Hole and the Bozeman shows. Unfortunately, we will not be in attendance in Missoula which I hear is the hippest town of the three. Enjoy the run. Possibly some reviews Tea. We shall see.

Forum MVP Island Bro Posted September 25, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm jumping on board over in Seattle,,,but I was wondering.... I could use a "Who's on Bass?" update... Who is playing bass for this run and have they made a decision as to who will be in that position regularly? Thanks so much,,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Tea Posted September 25, 2013 Author Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Possibly some reviews Tea. We shall see. You got it in ya buddy!

Forum MVP GoingBackTo Where.... Posted September 26, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Love you all in the Western run, but FUCK YOU!!!!!! Sorry, truth be truth. I am green with envy, and though I tried, and efforted a quick turnaround, I was unable to get my shit together. enjoy Jackson, Enjoy Montana..... ok....this is why I really responded. Fucking Missoula is the GD shit!!!! I love that place, would of bred many children if I transferred up there from Utah!!! Spent, on several occasions, weeks up there!!! My buddy was, and the bastard is still a well renowned western painter(artist)---fuck you Lane----still to this day!!!! Guys........OMG.......I kid you not, and how to say this with grace........everynight was a lovely scarlet or sugar mag..........EVERYNIGHT!!!!!! The Coolidge effect is the truth in previous past performance:}!!!!! But only on record in Missoula. My god, such a great state to populate:}!!!!!! And I chose the rocks of Utah, over the cold long nights of frolicking in Missoula-------fuck it ramble on rose----- I love Missoula, Yep, it will be the best of the crowds.....Jackson, might be light. I do state, I, out of shit talkers of the shit talkers, watch my mouth in Montana. Those fuckers, best friends, beat each other up for the fun of it. Just two cents, everyone on this board is much cooler and nicer than I, so really just telling myself what to do incase I made it out there!!!!!! Safe travels, and you still might see my ass!!!! Anyone, and I laugh as I write this, got an extra seat for a rider through Jackson on, please let me know:} I am so much more reserved in person, ask anyone on here that knows me:}!!!! Plus always fringe benies:}!!!!!!!! Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP Tea Posted September 26, 2013 Author Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Skip Seen it all already have you? Have fun anyway skip, the bass player dummy!!! SorryT, just made me laugh My Bad LOLOL It should have made you laugh - I wasn't following the thread when Island Bro inquired about who was gonna be strapped to the bass this go around. Skip as a noun? A verb? Bad context > Surely Rick wasn't going to pooh-pooh a good suggestion of a gorgeous outdoor pursuit with "Skip" Maybe he would > It is ME after all.... Funny stuff. Seriously though > Not that the rest of the tour is going to be come-down after the the 3-show kick-off but if you can go, you better Just...Do...It. The sparks are gonna fly!

Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted September 26, 2013 Forum MVP Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Your hiking suggestion sounds fantastic. With the limited time to explore due to time constraints, I may not be able to make it this time, but I love good outdoor activities. The pictures looks great.
