I love to travel to new fests
I love to travel to new fests and was thinking about this one... especially good since it is on a 3-day weekend... but the flights from Portland are ranging between $680--900 RT!
If only I had the time to drive it... that would be fun.

Joy, doesn't look like it, unless he plays with Magnolia Boulevard, a lexington group he has sat in with before. I don't have any inside scoop though

Right before I did the Other
Right before I did the Other Ones tour in 1998, I lived in dayton, ohio and after a breakup, I moved into this house of some folks who gave me some space and they were juggalos. Nice people, but I got so sick of ICP and faygo and honestly,
I have no desire to go to the Gathering of the Juggalos at Legend Valley

A huge thank you to China
A huge thank you to China-Rider! I'm only able to go Saturday, but not bad for last minute. I told China how grateful I am for the Zone since my husband, Leper Van Atom, passed away. Reading the Zone is like talking to him, he was an insightful, interesting, Head of all kinds, with a gentle nature, like many Zoners.
Mike, I'm having picture problems. My computer is an old Mac, it won't download even one picture, so I can't upload pics until I get a new Mac. I tried it on my cell phone but the screen would not pop up. I will try again and make sure my computer is logged off of the Zone, but I may need to email you, so you can add them. I also have pictures from Dan Tyminski and Trey Hensley and Rob Ickes from Jorma's Fur Peace Ranch that I couldn't load, but like I said I'll give it a try with the small cell phone again.
Lagerandgospel I added a public email to my profile, send me an email and I'll try to meet you at the Jubilee!

^Interesting info re: Scott Lookinland. Apparently Mike Lookinland's ("Bobby Brady") son, whom I was not aware of his existence at all, let alone his acting/musical affiliation(s). I used to chat with him (Mike) at SLC-area shows. Rock On.

A couple of members of DSO
A couple of members of DSO needed to recover from Covid one more night, so they had some guests, including Scott, doing an elective set. Now, I had no idea who is dad was. I know of Scott vaguely as a DSO fan who does some of the DSO tours as a fan, which is why it's fun he got to play with them.
The full band is supposed to play tonight. The set list doesn't do justice to the music- Mattson was very inspired up there, the band making up for different format and playing exceptionally well. Great first night!

Good Morning. Had the pleasure of meeting Lil yesterday. She was really kind & super nice.
On last nights show, Lisa Mackey sang on Jack Straw and Birdsong. Trapeze artist on stage during Birdsong. DSO was flying through uncharted birdsong jam territory while she improvised death-defying trapeze moves to their jams. The second encore was a Pigpen Lovelight.
I think anyone who has seen DSO needs to see them at this venue: they really respond well, like any band, to a top notch speaker system and rabid fan energy. The show felt much larger than the set list implies. Fascinating jams in and out of Bertha and drums. The drummers also have a new Beam and it's sounding great during drums/space.

Thank you again China-Rider
Thank you again China-Rider for the ticket, appropriate that DSO would play China Rider at the only show I could see. DSO has a really tight band right now, I really enjoyed it, the bassist had some great fills to go with all the wonderful players. I only got there in time for Keller Williams, but that was fun, with the blue grassing of the Dead songs, Stranger had an interesting arrangement. JGB was also great. A bald eagle started flying over us during Dear Prudence, John K. added in his lyrics, "look at the sky". I had on my GD 25th anniversary shirt with the bald eagle and then DSO filled it out with Jack Straw, the eagles filled the sky. It was special. Being from Columbus, lots of my friends were at the show, who all knew Vern, Leper, he was our eagle.

Great weekend. Not just
Great weekend. Not just saying this, but DSO was playing exceptionally well. All the other bands were good, I really enjoyed the Peter Rowan set with Railroad Earth. Peter is a treasure that I don't feel people I appreciate enough. He's aged a lot since I saw him in 2019, so please if you get a chance to see him, go do so!
I loved each night of music, second night was my favorite. Only sad that JK didn't sit in with DSO, but that's ok.
It was good to dance for three days and feel free. Wish you were there!
