2 friends plus the gfs sister caught Covid and it sounds like hell. Even the 24yr old sister was sick for a week and still has issues smelling 15 days later. One was a denier and said it’s worst sickness of her 42yr life. She didn’t deny the virus just the severity of it. That’s what happens when the president acts like it’s nothing and how he feels 20 years younger. Thank god that turd will lose his bully pulpit in a few months but he will still be quoted on the news every fucking day. He made news stations money and the number 1 goal of every business is to make a profit. Some news sources exploit our deep dark fears more than others to make money. Then you have the full blown profiteers that would switch sides in 2 secs if they could make more money. We all have to make sacrifices in life to feed our families. I printed t-shirts for a client in the mid 2000’s that were for the Florida state vs Colorado games and these shirts were pro Florida state. Yes it was gross but we have mortgages to pay. Yes these shirts may have incited violence but prob just a drunk punch in the face during or after the game. Do I have a point? Idk. Maybe theres a nugget in there to contemplate or maybe not. Likely just a whiskey ramble. Cheers and peace.

Dark Star > Death Don't, Easy Wind... Wow, what a way to go into a set break. I'm sure it fired up some good cheer

My first 69 style show, this was a splendid night. This venue was excellent, full PA with great sound. Fall colors starting to show and nice weather with a brief and refreshing shower of light rain mid second set. There was a little trouble in the first couple songs, where the PA cut in and out and we could only hear the stage, but it was quickly fixed and caused no further troubles. Doin That Rag was sung with youthful exuberance. Dark Star was fantastic. Death Don’t was masterfully delivered, and Easy Wind broke the somber mood perfectly and finished the set out with fun. After a little break, Dancin got everyone on their feet, really high energy jam in there. My first time seeing them do Attics, great harmony singing with Skip soaring high. The final sequence was relentless, high energy throughout. Me and Jake persevered, but it was a battle of endurance to keep up. Perfect Ripple encore. Killer show and it was a thrill to see a full onslaught 69 style show for the first time. We had the pleasure of meeting Franknkeene after the show and he kindly offered us space to camp out at his place, thanks Frank!!
