Don’t ask me who it was. This was years ago.

Wait — it was Wilson Pickett, I think.

Saw Dylan there 2 years ago. Not a good show. The band was good but I couldn’t understand anything. He played “Watching the River Flow” which I picked up from the lyrics but it didn’t sound anything like the song I knew. Oh well I saw Dylan.

El Papa knows how to live. I grew up with friends from the South Side of Chicago. Pope Leo grew up one of us -- a human being who loves life and art and all the stuff that makes us human.

ETA: Spaced out that I've been to four Grateful Dead concerts -- three in Chicago. They know how to live.

Seeing as how I lived 20 minutes from the Mothership in Hampton you’d think it’d be more. We always hang out in the parking lot though. My brother saw about 300 shows.

it follows that Pope Bob probably likes Bob as well.

He told me he went to three concerts but could never make it out of the parking lot each time. I’d give him credit.

States may vary.

Road to Shambala too. 👍

If he could send our blond Damien to the depths of HELL right now, it would be greatly appreciated.

When Orrex posts his daily "Is He Dead Yet" thread, I would like to be able to say "Orrex, you can stop now, because the Pope sent that fetid meat bag to the eternal burn pit where Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Joe Biden newsreel loops will be played on an eternal MSDNC Rachel Maddow Show news feed."

...people you would have never suspected were Deadheads.

The one that surprised me the most was Walter Cronkite...!

If I can find it, I will edit this post with the link to the video.

Mickey told part of the story of their friendship at a tribute to Cronkite not long after Cronkite passed:

...thanks for this Cronkite/Hart video.

more power to him !!!!


If he wants to broaden his horizons, I'd suggest The Doors first album,
along with Bruce Springsteen's "Born to run",
Jackson Browne's "The Pretender",
and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers---
hard to choose there, so "Long After Dark", "into the great wide open" and "hard promises" !!!
