    Happy Friday! I thought I would share this Brian Eno playlist I made in case anyone is into that kind of thing. This is all “rock” related work of his or that he was part of. I will do an ambient one down the road as well. There is an awesome Eno documentary on Amazon Prime now too, really worth watching, and this playlist is a good companion to that. Enjoy!

    ^^^ bro, I was there. road tripped to Hampton from Durham, NC. My buddy and I were seniors and a sweet lil sophomore heady lady joined us and provided the wheels. religious experience on the floor of the mothership; major tears and emotional release during that Shining Star. We just kept singing the chorus. We wouldn’t let it stop. Don’t you go away (Jerry). Cathartic and amazing. The next summer (’94), I’d meet my future bride. Her birthday: 11.19. Our wedding song: Shining Star

    Pleaeeese don’t redrum me!

  13. vapebraham Says:

    word. back then. things were spontaneous and loose. Girl (forgot her name) says, “Hey, Jerry’s playing in Hampton Virginia tonight. Wanna go?” My buddy and I: “Sure, sounds great. When do we leave?”

  14. vapebraham Says:

    that 11.19.93 video is incredible. Thanx!

  15. uncle-jimmy Says:

    My pleasure vape. That kinda shit makes me pretty happy

  16. uncle-jimmy Says:

    Dear Diary

    all kinds of upside down twisted over here in china
    every musical outlet has been blocked except this one!
    *major score for the BB btw!!!!****
    was excited to chomp on your spot mix AJ but alas, big red got the best of me

    simmering on some KVXT which is not so simmery. but it’s all i got
    been up for 4 days, with about 4 hours of cumulative sleep
    a trip like no other

    jazzed AF for ghost of the forest in April, feelin some secret set vibes…..no idea what to expect. couldn’t be happier about that

    walking through factories today provided a lot of perspective….they were modern, clean, and comfortable. happy to see the workers were treated well. was really inspiring to see a massively productive workforce. lots of care goes into your socks yalll

    next couple days we’ll travel deeper into more rural countryside. factories will be very different. Today one of the biggest factory owners in china told us a story of how he was looking to launch production in USA. But didn’t, because there was no skilled labor. being passionate about manufacturing in USA it hurt my heart. ultimately inspiring though. so many people need work but dont have the training.

    anywho thanks for the chalk, community, vibes, and banter.
    barely able to type now, maybe sleep will come.

    HDHT – Spotify not blocked in China – but you can also download things on your phone in advance, which I do a ton of for the long haul there and back. I was just there for 6 days again, but up in the Jing. Enjoy the countryside factories – certainly will be a not so nice vibe but the food out there should be good.

    加油!

    Anyone have an idea about the sound of Ghosts Of The Forest? Anything leaked.

  20. HeadyBrosevelt Says:

    The Eel River box is absolutely wonderful. Good hopping on here and seeing some love for it. I’ve spent way more than one lazy summer afternoon in a hammock spinning Lazy Bones chuffing a Country Man spliff… and looking forward to many more. Cheers, BB. Love you kids.

    Wow. Tonight was my first Mike show since Kimock and Walter joined the band. Those two are great additions to the band. Craig Myers surprised me by having a much larger presence in the band, both sound wise and being positioned front right with a much larger set up than I remember. And the band didn’t sound muddy at all, which was often the case at my prior Mike shows.

    I had no clue that Trey was rumored to be in the house. What a treat. His playing immediately electrified the whole room, all 525 of us. He and Scott sounded great together; Scott def upped his game with Trey beside him. Trey stayed for the entire second set (after the first song) & encore, which was Sweet Emotion!

    Also fun to see Mike’s parents and daughter walk by us a couple of times. This 4 night home town run must feel super special to Mike and his family. He seemed especially happy to have Trey up there with him; their onstage bond seemed unusually tight tonight.

    At $32.50 this is easily the cheapest quality Phish related project I’ve seen in at least a decade. Also the smallest venue I’ve seen Trey play since winter Europe ’97.

    And I’ll be back for today’s Sunday show. Thank you, Mike!

    Went to post about trey showing up last night but scoop’d even from his bb semi retirement. Looks like I made the wrong decision to stay on the couch.
