Filler: Satisfaction

Of the 3 shows in a row I just witnessed this was IMHO the "weakest:. Of course it was still stelllar.

After 90 DSO shows..my first Take You Home....Rob did it beautifully...my fav of the night

It was the largest and most attended venue as well. To me the highlight was walking in at the theoretical doors open time of 8PM and being one of 18 (thats right eighteen) to witness Cornmeal playing on stage!!

This was piss poor advertised...no mention on venue website, the only reference is on DSO website mentioning Support: Cornmeal

They were awesome....I met many people after that were dissapointed.....not knowing Cornmeal was opening. By 8:30 they were done.

The venue was in a college town in a square with lots of bars. If this was a "hippie" thing...I missed it.

This was a "I hope my daddy doesn't run out of money" community....Designer jeans 2 sizes too small etc...lol

The "smells of herb" at Tallahassee and Birmingham were 10X better.

All in all a solid show...just didn't get me going as much as the previous 2.

Of course just one starhead's opinion....

Have to "patch my bones" now and rejoin the festivities in Columbus OH....hope to see some of you there!

That's Old Miss for ya, buddy - bastion of Southron gentility. Not exactly a hotbed of hippie sense and sensibilities. Glad DSO had such a good turnout and your description of the crowd sounds dead on...fratheads and sorostitutes. I look forward to my niece's opinion.

And that sucks beyond words about Cornmeal. In fact, it angers me, FWIW. They deserve far, far better. But then, its been that way for them before. Which still sucks.

Glad you had a good run! See ya on down the road...shanti.

.... Cornmeal. ..... They deserve far, far better. ....

It should be better tonight at Varity but I don't think folks down here really know much about Cornmeal. I'll be sure to encourage everyone to get inside to the show early. I think I'll do a front rail tonight instead of my usual spot at Varity....but that's maybe ten hours from now...right now it's time to start baking fresh cookies.

Peace and Happy Daceing in the Wind
