I was so blessed to see John 'Marmaduke' Dawson and Co. open up for the Dead on so many different occasions; God, I wish they were all still here! To Marmaduke, Jerry, Donna, Hunter Thompson and everyone involved in the expansion of the Universe - you are still with us in our Exploration!

My very first live event was the New Riders of the Purple Sage almost 50 years ago when I was 14. They were my favorite band at the time. They were just really great live. I saw them in Chicago The Weeknd The Grateful Dead did their Fare Thee Well shows. I spent that weekend a mile and a half away watching David Nelson and Buddy cage in a club what about 60 other people. It was in 2015. Buddy was still absolutely incredible. He had a mohawk LOL RIP Jerry buddy David Marmaduke and all others who brought us so much joy Everybody else keep rocking on

You too?! Me too, fourteen at RFK when NRPS opened for Leon Russel. Unbeknownst to me some guy named Jerry Garcia was special guests with NRPS that day. 1973 Washington DC, maybe that was in July. For some reason I cant remember the exact date. But Gnu does. Thanks brother man. This is sweet. Sorry I'm so busy. I'll be dropping off letters to Potus, Flotus, Vice-President Harris, and Secretary of State Blinken this first week of January, 2023. (Its about time they pay me.) I hope ya'll got my back. If you're not in the Garden of Eden, what you gonna do on the planet today? Peace & Prosperity

I saw him in July 1973, (I think it was July), but it was definitely 1973. RFK DC. NRPS played a few songs, then invited Jerry to sit the rest of their set and play pedal steel until Leon Russel came on. I wonder what those conversation between Russel and Garcia were like? It's now one minute past midnight, January 1st, 2023. Have a healthy & prosperous new year!
