My heart is heavy and I am still in disbelief and shock that he’s gone. Aaron was a close friend, instigator of the best kind and always ready to bugaloo which to know me was instantly endearing. I say Aaron because he admonished me after years of friendship that he had real name, lol. There was never a question to what was on his mind; when I first met him at Black Mountain shows in 2014, he told me he thought I’d be ugly and frumpy with a handle like Poetry Girl. This is hard to write because it makes it more real. We have had heart to hearts, pulled all nighters together, gambling or traipsing around NOLA, riding scooters around Indianapolis, laughing easily at his absurd assertions or funny ideas. He had such a big heart. I was so happy he made it to St Louis and texted him so, hoping the night filled him up, getting his head above water for a little while. The past year or so he had a heavy heart, lost zeal. I think of him every show really, always missing his dancing, competing with me for steps, which I won, haha, and missed him in Asheville during Music Never Stopped, watching the crowd really bust loose and get down, knowing he would be in heaven. When he hurt his foot and wore a brace, we maximized it in ADA in ATL; you know he would have had it no other way. Aaron lived life hard, harder than I ever could. Alas, desolation row. Starheads make the best community. I love you all very much. We lost a good one and damn, I wish I could have talked to him Sunday. I hate it for so many reasons, not the least being, for his son. Remember, it is a wonderful life. Bittersweet, but wondrous all the same. ❤️

Damn. I’m so torn up. Incomprehensible. Floored. Sad. Mad.

The song so celebratory a feel to dance, all goodness breaks loose.

This venue was fabulous! 15 min drive from the peninsula pf downtown Charleston along the banks of the Cooper River. We took in lovely breezes this time of year with ample space for good visibility. Picnic blankets, cane creek chairs and happy people littered the lawn in front of a fabulous stage. oh where to begin! I took my daughter to her first DSO show, though she has a little deadhead resume seeing the Jerry’s birthday celebration at Red Rocks Bob Weir put on and some southern D&Co shows but she really loved the scene that is DSO. We hullabaloo’d last night! And i t was a real unexpected blast to see Vince and Sue!! The band gave us he psychedelic download and we walked in the transitive nightfall of into diamonds. The Dark Star was so crafted, spinning crystalline sound folding in again and again like orgami. The guy bothering us durimg Lovelight finally got the message we weren’t there to meet him, in the middle of a song!! and rather dance and hear the music. The sweet people up front folded us in and there was a real dance party going on. Nothing to me caps a show like William Tell and the Eleven. No more time to tell how This is the season of what Now is the time of returning With our thought jewels polished and gleaming! When Lauren and I were leaving, a lady stopped us. It was her first of a Grateful Dead kind of show. She said she took in the scene and was figuring out what it was about. She said watching us dance and really express the music made it make sense. Wow! What a compliment. May the golden road bless us all. Mama tried. 🤣

Great show! Touching for Asheville, Box of Rain, Let Me Sing your blues away, and the crowd really cut loose to Music Never Stopped. It was a beautiful thing!! So many changes. Everywhere. Nothing like a good show to reiterate true north. The power or music to bring people together is where it is at. There was a gentleman juggler in the crowd that juggled expertly while I danced to Estimated that was pretty much everything!! The height of fun!! And surely, we all need fun! Fabously spring, Asheville brought sweet breezes as the sun peeked in and out of the clouds, just like familiar faces peeked in and out of the crowd. Thank DSO and crew! A good time had by all. And what Tea said. 😄

Now, that’s how I like it. Rockin the Tabernacle. It would have been sooooo much better than the emergency vet with my daughter’s cat last night.
