Just got done hanging w Steve Kimock at the Happy Talk Lounge too.

 

lol.

 

My accidental GD vacation as an esteemed Zoner put it.

 

My wife made best friends with his wife and they are going to look us up next time they are in Cville. She deals with merch and knows all of our friends at Red Starr. 

 

Im never coming home, btw.

 

Send more swimsuits to Hanalei Bay c/o headlight73.

 

Did you ask him about the Jill firing?

This turned out to a great time with unexpected new friends, 73. It sounds like a lot of fun.

Thanks for the link Bluelight.   Nice solo from Kimock during Fennario.  Bill the drummer using the plant as a cymbal!

Really smiley?

That's sick.

Anthony Keidis was really nice to the kids at the juice bar yesterday too, even if he does look like an old porn star.

 

Turtle, lol, nope. Missed opportunity. 

 

I met Kiedis in the early 90's.  He looked really short.

Kimock came through with Hot Tuna a couple of months ago.  Got a chance to talk records with him and Jack Casady.  They were also shorter than I'd pictured them.

I didn't talk about Phil with any of them, but last week Railroad Earth came through, and Tim Carbone came down, pulled out a copy of Phil's book "Searching For The Sound" and pointed out a picture with him on stage with Phil & Friends.  Super nice dude, I shared my condolences about Andy Goessling, and he told me to schedule a colonoscopy.  He was also short.

Short People

Sure, but Jorma is not small.

Good Headlight bumps into all the cool people.  I saw Yvon Chouinard at Beach City Burrito once.  I think he was weirded out that someone recognized him.

I was all set to leave Mr Kimock alone, but his wife started chatting up my wife and his 9 year old was hanging w my boys at the Koi pond. 

Wondering if Graivy might participate in this thread.

Bob Weir is indeed a great and friendly conversation guy every time. That's a great story.

Happy New Year, JR. 

He does love sports too!

Any links to video of Rising up to Paradise (the 2-set show)?  Much appreciated New Year's stream gift.

add Laird Hamilton and Gabby Reese in front of us at the food truck.

just a hello. nothing fancy its pretty chill here.

Post a photograph ^

Lets see what you saw at any point.

I played that course, when I was in Kauai ^

Worst round of golf of all time.

Did a drop, with no relief, over by where that barefoot golfer is standing above.

Tuff course..

We already got a Turtle, Knotseu.

There's something about a golf course that doesn't exactly sit right, but would've for sure liked to have been there ...

In Maui at the Grand Waliea's best - there are visual hazards sings on 3 Tee off areas as the Whales breaching can come flying up ay any point.

No relief is given.

The signs are for real. Nicest course in the world.

too bad d. ho looks like a zombie these days...

and to finish the trip, just had a nice chat with Jon Stewart who sat across the aisle next to me for 5 hours.
