Late bloomer!


I planted a bunch of bulbs around Buddy's grave, and one of them managed to pop up here in early October.

Some tomatoes ripening too, and a surprise batch of habanero. Hold on lil' peppers!

I ran four miles today, kind of an easy go this time.  Other days....not so much.  Feeling the difference--it has been about 8 months of track time for me. 

DAN AND JIVAN PLAYING "JOY" IN A TOTALLY NEW WAY.  I LOVE THIS MAN JIVAN.  AND HE MADE THIS BORROWED TOM SOUND LIKE A PSYCHEDELIC TABLA.
     Last night's show at Luckey's was pretty fun, though it would have been funner with Casey and his band.  Casey got food poisoning or some kind of stomach tsunami and couldn't make it, so it ended up being a whole helluvalot of Dan Jones songs, and very few rotten vegetables were thrown.  Two sets solo--one acoustic and one electric--and a set with The Golden Motors.  I tried out a couple new songs and generally gave a long overview of five records in three hours that would have impressed my mom.  The Motors set was loose, and very late, and alot of fun.  Dan's amp blew up first thing, so he was running direct, and everyone was pretty punchy and kickin' out the jams.
