ZOTY 2024

It's December 2nd, and there's been no discussion about ZOTY yet. I would expect that Alan would have something to say about this, at least.

Of course, Phil!
Of course, Phil!
was wondering one day after he died if a Zoner should present a letter of condolence to his fam...or would that cause bad Zine memories to surface for them? Is Graham Zone lurker?

Since none of you jumped on
Since none of you jumped on top of my brilliant idea to use robots, MTV video puppets or giant Lego models to represent Jerry and Phil in the 60th anniversary concerts, I should be done with the lot of you. Sadly, Peter Shapiro received zero letters in the mail in support of this plan. I've even mocked up a life-size Warlocks Jerry and a "Can We Be Done With This Already?" Jerry to send him. (It's so hard to find a mailbox nowadays, much-less a stamp, but that's a topic for another thread.)
and I made a couple Phils, too (still working on him):

So anyways -- not to get off
So anyways -- not to get off topic, for ZOTY 2024, I nominate Phil's Chair for the steadfast support he/she/it provided Phil throughout this past year.
To go from a piece of discarded lawn furniture in San Rafael to a full-fledged draw at the Sphere, playing for hundred of misguided DeadCo fans, was truly remarkable.
In my opinion, anybody / anything who devotes their life to Phil's bottom end, deserves a trophy.

There's lots of Zonnies to go
There's lots of Zonnies to go around. If you happen to get one don't forget to unscrew the head to see if yours is filled with a little sumptin to get you thru the long night of self-reflection, celebration, and unbridled fear as we enter 2025. Happy Holidaze.
And remember, ballot box stuffing and voting shenanigans is not only allowed --- it's encouraged this year -- it's the thing to do nowadays.

No doubt. He didn't post often, but when he did, he played for keeps.

Phil and Jill did finally
Phil and Jill did finally receive a Zonnie award for their weekly Thursday Night livestreaming LeshCast where they would just stare into the camera and give the middle finger salute to everyone watching for an hour. It was like watching the XMas log burn on YouTube. Quite therapeutic. I miss it. Got us thru covid.

I'm hoping Phil's Chair will be resurrected for D$C's 2025 residency at the Sphere. Not as a cash grab thing, of course, but to secure its legacy.
