Jon Fishman!!!

As i stood in line to pay for my diesel tonight in Bow, NH i turned around to see who had just walked up behind me and to my amazement one of my biggest heros in the world is standing there smiling with his slurpie and chips... Jon Fishman was so kind and gracios to me, telling me stories outside of how he had just bought the ol' JEMP truck from the band for $5,000! He was on his way to his new farm in Maine. The truck that used to haul Phish's equipment around the country was now going to haul hay and manure around the farm. He also told me how he is building an old school ice box for a refrigerator in his new home. We talked about the new tour coming up with his friend "Willis" and he was surprisingly interested in what i did. He asked what i play and how long have i played...etc. I regrettably didn't think to offer my services if he ever needed someone! I was just in awe to be standing there talking with my favorite drummer! I will never forget it!

Mark your calenders!

Our good friends Bob Fletcher, and Dave Foster got talking the other day and in the process organized a two-day music fest in Warner on Bob's land! I have not received a ton of info, but i know Mini Jacket (Formerly The Band June) and Beechwood have both confirmed and there are several other bands in the process of confirming as i write this. There will be plenty of parking and camping spots, so bring you gear! Knowing Bob, there will be a pig roast and prolly some fireworks too! This is the kind of thing where it just won't be the same without you, so please spread the word to a couple nice people you may know and come enjoy some great music in the hills of Warner, NH! The dates are Friday August 25th and Saturday the 26th! I will post directions when i get more info. We look forward to seeing y'all in August!

I almost forgot this one...
