Masons Child

I want music bad. I want to dance and share my passion and joy as much as anyone alive I would argue. I have paid 3 times the amount to experience the joy. Sometimes the scalper won. BUT.... We can not make the arts and entertainment for the privileged, the elite. It’s the poor, the sick, and the downtrodden that need the spirit of this music the most. We must not make it so the guy that sells the pins and the patches or the t shirts or the grill cheese can never come inside. We can not do that.

By the way, my comment about paying rent was tongue in cheek not serious. Maybe more seriously the schools should be giving me back some of my money. My kid goes to a charter school. They are not providing us service now. Additionally, I am accruing additional life expense for baby sitting now. The government or school should possibly pay for that too but no I was kidding about not paying my rent. I don’t ever totally agree with mango and the conspiracy nuts in this country but there is something else going on here. This is a democracy and our current socio political climate feels more authoritarian. This is America. Government should be able to make recommendations but closure of business and operations should be at the discretion of the business owners. That’s how our system works and is suppossed to work. I truly propose that we have a we not afraid of you coronavirus rally. Mango can bring his keyboard. We just got over 1000 people to gather so that we are breaking the mandates of the government. Banning large gatherings is unconstitutional and they can’t enforce that. If trump wants to site special powers in emergencies, I will remind him that we have certain special powers and certain inalienable rights including the right to defend those rights.

Americans won’t accept the type of shutdown to make stop the spreading. It’s spreads one to one. One to many. It’s doesn’t take many to spread to one. I went to Chuck E. Cheese today for toph 7th bday. They closed early for no announced reason. Hope it wasn’t the virus but there was certainly 50 people there. A group of 50 can be just as dangerous as a group 1000 if one person has it. It passes one to one. i don’t know what the answer is. If I was sick or considered myself elderly, I definitely would be into self quarantine but coronavirus won’t kill me. I do worry about it in my household for sure. It would kill my mom. It might kill my baby girl. This shit is scary. We need to rush a vaccine to market some how but from what I’ve read 12 months is the minimum for it to be ready for market. I just worry the type or societal shut down to truly curb the spread of the virus would require things Americans just won’t swallow. I tend to side on the let’s go on with life as normal with a few extra precautions. Easy access to testing. If you are sick, please stay the fuck home and away from others. I’ve been washing my hands and using hand sanitizer much more regularly. Making my kids wash their hands much more regularly. I hope with summer festival season coming up we can find a solution to help these events go forward. Maybe on site testing. I’ve read about mobile testing sites. Ones were you test the people in their car. It sounds shitty by the way to be confined to the car waiting results but it takes 4 hours to get into Bonnaroo anyway. Any car with someone testing positive. Yes that has to eliminate the whole car is not allowed to enter. Those virus free can still go. I have to admit I know my desire for the show to go on is selfish.

By the way I want to make it clear that I know that DSO didn’t have a choice. I’m not sure what their individual opinions are but I have to imagine if it was totally up to them we’d have some form of tour here.

They must have tremendous evidence that those getting infected have been at large scale events. I will wait to see the results but I don’t think this stops the spread of anything. These people were getting sick at the airport, the grocery store, the bank. I’d love to interview all those infected and hear about the great games or concerts they been seeing. I couldn’t disagree more with the shutting down of society. But always I will eat crow if this has a major impact on the spread of this virus. I just don’t see there being any difference in 4 weeks. What then? Do we cancel the entire MLB season. What about football training camp? I’ve been reading about many new cases since the societal shut down. Feel bad for those that are members of large churches. They can’t even go to their place of worship to pray. Public school shut down puts tremendous pressure on dual income families which most families with 2 parents are. I shouldn’t have to pay rent or bills during society shut down but I assure you come the 1st and the 15th they still gonna want there’s.

Sucks. We gonna have to cancel summer too. Nothing will be different in four weeks. It’s almost comical this response of ours. Do nothing. Then way overreact. I will cross my fingers for May but certainly not hold my breathe.

Your funny Rude. Enjoy Hawaii.

The cork loves DSO I should be in attendance back in Dewey this year. Maybe camp again.

Black Mountain is a top 5 DSO experience every year. Consistently an amazing time. Although some changes last year to the vibe. mango until you do Jamaica I would save that phrase. Quite a phrase. Hallelujah jingle bell rainbow huh? Never heard anything like that before. I put jubilee up there with BM. Clearly Jamaica. Penns can get there. New Years run can compare. I’ve had epic Hampton beach experiences. But like I said top 5 Dso experience every time. From the great music from Dso. To the after gatherings of music and laughter. I’ve done BM many ways; it’s always one hell of a good time. I think it is always around mango birthday too which helps makes it a great time. One thing I know mango and I can agree on though is you never really know what night and what venue is gonna be that experience for you. I remember kinda of hating Rams Heads shows because of the crowd and the space. One time came in low expectations on a Sunday night and the experience was amazing. Massive get down. Never know when it’s gonna strike.

I also question the Constitutionality of banning gatherings over 500 people. I thought the 1st amendment assured us the right to peacefully gather. We can not forget our principles in times of hardship.

This is getting serious. Will Americans obey self quarantine laws. No gatherings larger than 10 people. 9 PM curfew. No hugs. No handshakes. The shut down of public schools and all restaurants. I know this virus is serious but we are verging on mass hysteria here. Wash your hands. We can’t go back into the cave because of a virus. We are going to cripple our economy. Soon starvation not the virus will be the major concern of the poor. Time to go to the market and hoard all the supplies. Sucks I’m not a prepper. I’m not prepared for this. Elections will have to be cancelled. Trump will be able to have a stranglehold on the presidency. Can’t have people gather to vote. Power can’t change during pandemic.

I’d love to do driggs again. I should be in WY.

Ambitious plans. I should see you at a lot of those. Whitney and I are closing on a house. We will be homeowners before the 4th or July run. I would love to entertain a few of you over that weekend. We shall see how it plays out.

Hopefully heads West from there. We get an Iowa maybe a Kansas City or Omaha with 4 nights DSO Colorado around the 4th

I’m real curious on this run. We should get most of summer tour. I will be living on East Coast for most of summer but I will have a house in Colorado too. I love WY unless the rest of this festival completely sucks I will be there.

Question is how many sml fist pumps

Where can I get this 10/28

Looks like we make Eugene but just the hotel. Hit more snow here in Oregon. Fun ride. See you in bend.

We making it. May only get 2nd set tonight but we will see some music. I’m through the weather. Also was closer to death last night than I’d like to admit. Just one real good slide slight turn sideways drift 3/4 a lane to pull straight again wiggle a bit let me guide it back into tire tracks.

You never know when the magic will happen. looks like a lot of fun see you kids soon have to drive through the blizzard first.

Some say crude. Others say natural. Human. You ever masturbate? What about have sex? It doesn’t seem that crude to me. Gave me a beautiful little girl. But oh ya crude for the Rahj

Does the Rahj fuck or just meditatively masturbate? Self cumming with no physical interaction?

See you guys in Eugene. I may see some snowy conditions on the drive but we set sail tomorrow. Eugene through San Francisco. Can’t wait.

Jealous of you early arrivals but I could only afford a day early or a day late. For me, Donna the Buffalo vs. JGB was a no brainer.
