I'll be at the Stones Concert. If its half as much fun as two weeks ago when I was in the 11th row on the floor at Madison Square Garden for Jimmy Buffett I'll be very pleased.

Well, now that we know what you California Blues fans have been up to - -
How about us Jersey Rock and Roll fans? - - WOO HOO!!! - - I'm heading off
to the Stones Concert tomorrow night @ Giants Stadium. LUCKY ME!!!! I saw
them last Sept. 15th and it was one of the MOST incredible times of my life.
Looking forward to an even Bigger Bang tomorrow. Anyone else out there
heading to the concert? Marvin, have you ever heard of Blues singer, Roxy
Perry? Check out; www.ROXYPERRY.com. We had the privilege of attending a
party a few weeks ago at a private home and they had a live 5-piece Blues
band performing. They were awesome! I actually thoroughly enjoyed the Blues
that evening. However, during their 3rd set when they started to mix it up a
little, and everyone was dancing, I gave a shout out for some Stones and
they went right into "Honky Tonk Women"! Of course, the highlight of my
evening.
I'll let you know how tomorrow compares to last year's performance.
Also, send my regards to Jimmy Miller when you find him, one of my fellow
Wayside school bus buddies, along with you; Jim W., Mark and Tim; hello to
you three as well.
Later,
Joy

LE BON TEMPS ROULE,
What we have here is nothing less than another fantastic Blues Festival
under our belts. After Friday's free lunchtime harmonica heavy show,
Saturday's theme had a distinctly New Orleans flavor to it. Under an
achingly beautiful, sunny San Francisco sky, the festivities kicked off
with the Brass Monkey Brass Band who got the crowd up on their feet and
they didn't let up even after they'd climbed off the front of the stage,
big brass tuba and all, and marched through the whole crowd playing "When
The Saints Go Marching In."
Talk about audience participation.
The rest of the Saturday show was just as much fun and I hung out a
little more than usual up on stage. But can you blame me? It's the best
place to feel all that incredible energy, what with each backup band
doing their own particular call and response stomp in response to their
colorful main performer.
As usual, I kept myself available for whatever cropped up - there's
usually a small fire that needs dousing every half hour or so.
Somebody's manager usually demands this or that for his performer, a
photographer didn't get his name on the backstage list. I had to scare
up the armloads of beaded necklaces we threw from the stage (it's a Mardi
Gras thing). I even had to throw a body block on Sunpie Barnes so we
could pay him before he went off to sign autographs. He was so happy I
caught him that he threw a big old bear hug on me. Sunpie used to play
for the Kansas City Chiefs, so no inconsiderable hug, that.
The fog came in before the end of Saturday's show and it got a little
windy. I put on a long sleeve T shirt under my Staff T, because in San
Francisco we know enough to dress in layers. After the show ended SWMBO,
her family and I went out for drinks and something to eat at a seafood
place - her aunts and uncles had come into town for the Festival and we
wound up taking over the whole back room, then it was home to sleep and
start over again on Sunday morning.
Sunday started out even nicer than Saturday - and stayed that way. The
theme was back to basic meat and potato, straight ahead Blues music, even
Ruth Brown was there. I could go on and on about the different
performers - who were all great, but the closing act was Little Richard,
who's even more of a character in person. His people insisted the stage
be cleared before he went on, but his manager Jeff Weiner and I have been
partying together for the last 3 years and good old Jeff gave me special
dispensation to stay on the stage - that's how I got SWMBO up there, too.
Here it is, Monday and I've taken the day off to rest up. This summer I
got back into long distance cycling, so it's time for my daily 18 mile
bike ride down to the Embarcadero, around the ball park, up to Pier 39
(twice), then home-again-home-again-jiggity-up-the-hill-jig. I'm into
the whole special shoes that clip into the special pedals, water bottles,
cycling computer, gloves, pants, helmet and blinky lights. I don't care
much about cycling shirts, but I did just pick up a new bike rack for the
back of my car, because I was tired of my old rack.
So that's a few words about me, me, me. How's everybody else out there
in Area 51? (Tim, you turned 51, yet?)

Jim,
That's great to know about Jimmy Miller. Mark van Lummel's been asking
about him, too.
Thanks
Tim
