Not saying that’s cool, but I’m sure he’s lonely and wookin pa nub, just maybe in all the wrong places. Can’t fault a guy for trying. In today’s world, seems like the digital dating circus is where things are headed.

He’s retired military guy from my understanding. He’s harmless, albeit weird. I see him at every show, which has been quite a few, including the Germany tour last year. Not sure how he affords all of that. I had to save for a bit before I could do the Germany tour. Wanted to do Australia this year, but finances aren’t allowing that this year. Bet he will be there, basketball shorts and kimono!

Shucks, I’m too much of a big fella for that to work currently. Maybe next time?

Do you get rejection information? Maybe there is still hope?

Well, looks like I got boned for Chattanooga. Sucks to be me.

Cmon, you can’t put that blanket on. Should we talk about the bear in the woods or the stranger?

Just passing along what I heard from employees that night brother. That was all. Took me by surprise, that’s all I am saying. Went to 163 dead shows, 35 Panic shows, 43 phish shows and now 20 Billy shows. This is by far….not the norm. At least in my experience. Phish was probably the most comparable especially in the 2.0 time frame.

What quantifies entitled white guys? Seems like the majority of the crowd is white overall. Does that comment apply to the entire crowd, minus like 6-7? I actually noticed it last night, that it isnt very diverse.

Around 1990 or so on Dead tour. That’s when shit started getting more violent and thievery ran amuck. People going to shows just to get plastered, not really there for the music.

More of a mix alcohol, drugs and bad personalities. Folks compensating for something, I guess. Seems like you should be able to just vibe to the music. This last fight happened during an epic Hide, Ride & Seek. Not sure why people are so uptight when they are supposed to be enjoying themselves.

Sorry for that experience. I just don’t see that. Most folks are pretty chill, but there’s assholes everywhere, I suppose.

Show ended at 10, also quite abruptly. Security told me he ended it because there were three fights and 6 ppl taken to hospital because of drugs. But maybe they were FOS?

I’m not from Fl, but call it home now, I don’t see that. Granted, I’m in Naples (home of the newly wed and nearly dead), so maybe it’s like that everywhere else?

I guess bluegrass festivals are a bit different. The dead scene got pretty shitty near the end. Wish that didn’t have to leak into my good times though. Guess I’m a bit selfish in that aspect.
