Truckin (chips cashed in)

It's always felt like vision to me. The weird thing is that when I first really listened to it, I felt like I'd heard vestiges of it years and years before - like when I was a young child. Almost like a nursery rhyme - very strange. It's trying to speak a universal truth but part of the answer is hidden from you and you just have to piece the rest together for yourself. Clear as mud, right?

I guess you can't argue with his past results but I wasn't talking about that. I'm talking about him being a classless POS with his throwing the players he’s in charge of under the bus as no talent hacks and then doubles down. Look in the mirror vampire - oh wait, there’s no reflection

Cut my teeth on the Chula Vista show - 9/15/85 / My favorite She Belongs to Me. Pre Drums is really something else - get a Comes a Time for the chaser

Agreed - Ron is a national treasure here and beyond ❤️

A guy that used to be on here who hated the nitrous mafia (with the heat of a 1000 suns) told a story of busting a valve and running. He lived to tell about it but you can't outrun hot lead in 2024.

Holy Guacamole 🥑 Batman! Looks like they threw the kitchen sink at ya'll - and then the whole kitchen, just for good measure 😮 Reads like a dream to me - I'll bet it was a lucid dream for all that got to plug into THAT vibe. One of the best vibes there is musically which I've nicknamed: Endorphin Firehose. Who wants a sip? What I'm most happy about, is BillK522 finally getting the royal treatment with this offering. The veritable 1969 white whale was finally realized - and then that monster just swallowed Captain Bill, whole All I know is that the opening refrain of Dark Star must have made everyone giddy with anticipation 🤪 With a Dark Star opener, you know you're embarking on a 3-hr journey. I might have just jumped out of my skin. Thanks to DSO + Crew for deciding to make this one happen for some very deserving friends- infinite magic indeed ❤

Battle of the Blues goes to the Heels! Helps when have only 5 turnovers and play lights out defense. Duck Fook

Whoa, Greg! Stressball City. I’ve had similar pinball events (some me, some venue) and it’s the worst when wanna lock-in in the music. Relative to Dead and Company, summer 2023 was 100% better than previous tours. While no real tour de force shows (moments for sure), it was light years better than the years leading up

Ted Silverman (TedToob) is an old fraternity / sorority (co-ed) brother of mine. Dead to the core! He gets out to some shows!

Mmmmm Visions ❤️ 2008? - not there
