Heppy Easter...
...To all who partake!
We don't celebrate Easter since we are varying degrees of Jewish. Still looks like we have a full house for dinner tonight- Sasha has a friend over, Jase & Samantha are around..Scott's making something called 'Barbeque Beer Can Turkey"..He had to go out and find a 32 oz can of beer..Let me tell you it's pouring here in Belmont - Didnt faze El Scotto, he's pushed the Webber under the gazebo by the hot tub..Speaking of Beer- gotta say the Hefeweizen I had at Gordon Biersch last night was delish! Tasted like bananas!...
The Beauty of tour starting up again is that there's gonna be reviews, setlists and more Press! to link up and ponder over!!
New stuff at Closet Deadhead!

Happy Berthaday to Scott!
My sweetz turns 48 years young today!! Not fair at all that he is aging so well and I'm turning into the apple doll version of myself more & more every day...Ah, well.
He's at work -if youre around 2318 Mission in SF, today. go tell him Happy Birthday-and let him sell you a guitar or an amp too..Place closes at 4:30pm...Tonight, We'll be heading to Palo Alto for some bertha dinner @ Gordon Biersch (yum)..
Now today being my first day of Schpring Break, I'm decluttering my sewing closet-aka-the Bobby Shrine..Might even take a photo once all is in place! Can't promise when it'll be done- Taking Kidz to the matinee and stopping by Macy's to buy the couch & chairs we liked on our furniture hunt a few weeks ago...Last week we saw a coffee table - price tag made my stomach drop but Scott sez we won't ever need to buy another one again in our lives. He's the wheeler dealer (haggles all day 6 daze a week and gets paid for it) So, if he thinks its worth it, then who am I to doubt it? Soon we will have a furnished living room which means we can invite adults (my parents ) over.
Guess I better get my shoes on & get the show on the road (geez, now I'm sounding just like mom)!

Brett Meisner is too funny!
I posted a link to his website about a year ago but here he is again...I dont know what exactly his thing is- but he is strangely appealing...

irenie so tired...
But putting this on here before celebrating Spring Break by taking a long nap..
......
Last night- so much fun.. Wish I knew the names of the pieces they do? Paulyy took pictures and a few folks were taping (video) so maybe I'll find some of where that stuff is at and link it up..

Heppy Friday!
I should be sleeping- in 7 hours I'll be leading 18 costumed three year olds around the school courtyard in a Purim parade-then it's carnival time...
But, presently, I'm rather wired. The moon is full the sky finally clear and I was feeling brave and went on my own- no Scott, no Kemmie, no Jase-to see Alphabet Soup in the city... No problems getting there (I'm prone to panic attacks driving alone at night) No problems parking (Only had to go round the block once!) Start was delayed so I got a double Cap (along with the 4 diet cokes I sucked down) No wonder I'm wirerererddd!
They were good- I really-really enjoy their whole thing...not so many performers this time out so more Kenny & Jay! First person I saw was Paulyy, waiting outside..Hung out with him pretty much til he had to leave (He also has one more day til SSpring BBreak)...
Oh ack, I'm gonna be so not adorable tomorrow - I'm gonna go wind down and resume this sometime tomorrow...

Life After the Dead:
An interview with Bob Weir
By Rex Rutkoski
Bob Weir glances out the window into his garden as he talks. While others might just see flowers, one of the founding members of the Grateful Dead finds musical symbolism in bloom.
“When I go to rehearsal today, when we start playing and bring up a scale that has some alternative places to go, we can start augmenting or diminishing, we can sharp or flat whatever. That’s a garden too,” he explains.
The artistic parallel comes naturally to Weir because he believes music is an entire world in which we reside. “It’s got furniture, cities and subdivisions. It’s got aerospace and heaven above and earth below. It’s a whole world that we live in. It’s every bit as real for me as the concrete world we are touching,” he says.
In his view, there is a bridge between this reality that everyone shares and the musical world. “For me the music occurring at the time, physically when I touch my guitar and play a note, part of my physical self, my corporeal self, is touching that note and that other world. It goes beyond spirituality to the nature of reality.”
The reality of the moment is RatDog, whose 1996 genesis was as a laid-back blues outfit. It has evolved into a rock band that holds to its roots while also embracing some elements of jazz.
Glory Days of the Dead
Weir remains a student of music in all of its facets. Even in the glory days of the Grateful Dead he explored solo work and side bands. Weir’s songs “Sugar Magnolia” and “Playing in the Band” are among the all-time Dead favorites. His “That’s it for the Other One” gave the Further Festival band its name.
RatDog’s repertoire ranges from blues classics such as “Good Morning Little Schoolgirl” and “Little Red Rooster” to such Grateful Dead classics as ’”Cassidy” and “One More Saturday Night” to some of his solo material, such as “Josephine” and “Bombs Away.”
RatDog’s first studio album, Evening Moods (2000), added such material as “Odessa,” “Bury Me Standing,” “Two Djinn,” and “Ashes and Glass.” Weir now includes some Jerry Garcia compositions, including “St. Stephen,” “Terrapin Station,” and “Touch of Grey,” in his shows.
In 2001, RatDog released Live at Roseland, a double-CD collection from a Portland, Ore., show, and a favorite among Dead Heads. Hybrid Recordings released Weir Here, a two-CD career retrospective of Bob’s complete oeuvre (one disc studio, one live) in 2004.
Currently, RatDog’s lineup includes Weir on rhythm guitar and vocals; drummer Jay Lane, considered one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s leading artists, an alumnus of the Freaky Executives and the Uptones; jazz/blues/rock pianist, Jeff Chimenti; guitarist Mark Karan, who previously played with Weir in the Other Ones; San Francisco saxophonist Kenny Brooks, a longtime member of the Charlie Hunter Quartet; and Bay-Area bassist Robin Sylvester, who has recorded and performed with Phil Spector, Bob Dylan, the Beach Boys and Ry Cooder.
Always, it’s about pushing and motivating one another, Weir says. “Somebody comes up with a new idea to season the pot. It brings things to a boil pretty quickly for a while.”
Never Bored with Jamming
Discovery is the big payoff of improvisation, he says. “You certainly don’t get bored,” he adds. “When something is happening that is new and fresh, it’s generally a fairly joyful experience, and edifying as well.” You take music to a different level and expand the art form when you improvise, he says. “Sure, if you are a soloist and come across a new riff, or something like that, that’s wonderful. But when the band is collectively improvising, that’s when those truly magical moments occur. When everybody collectively discovers a new direction, there is an energy burst and release that occurs that I’ve never seen anywhere else in my life in any place I’ve gone.”
Weir says it is the improvisation that keeps it fresh for him.
“I enjoy playing and singing, but the big payoff for me is finding new stuff,” he says.
He’s aware that he plays a fairly singular style of guitar. “A lot of folks are like me. I can pretty much drive a band with my guitar,” he explains. “That’s not to say I’m not going to go at it with a hammer and chisel and see if I can’t forge a new style in the next while.”
He is thinking now of that moment 35 years ago when Jerry Garcia told him that style is a set of limitations.
“It came up in a conversation we were having and that stuck with me all through those years,” he says. “If I see a pattern to what I’m doing, if I can see a style emerging, my nature is to try to blast through that mold and take it somewhere else. Each time that gets more difficult to do because there is more there to break through.”
The live experience, he says, is absolutely the best. “It is a timeless experience. You go to a place that is really timeless,” he says of concerts. “It can be ecstatic. It can be blue. It can be one thing or another. But all that has ever happened within the musical frame is there. You can feel it. You can hear it.”
There are a lot of people who followed the Dead still in the audience, he says. “The Dead used to have a bunch of new faces up front every three or four years. We would undergo sort of a turnover up there. I would imagine the back of the crowd is undergoing about the same turnover rate.”
Weir welcomes the proliferation of bands in the tradition of the Dead—the so-called jam-band movement. “Absolutely. I think it is a healthy thing for American popular music,” he says. “I think since the demise of the Dead era there had been almost a slowdown of that era. Really highly improvisational music hasn’t been at the fore of American popular culture. And it is the biggest plume in our cap, the carrying on of that tradition. It makes me feel like I’ve done something with my life in helping re-popularize it.”

Thank Goddess there's only ONE more day til Spring Break!! May start celebrating tonight and go out to Last Day Saloon for some Soup! Scott needs to work on taxes..so, he'll be home (besides too late of an outing since he leaves 4 work at 7AM )..Likely I'll go in with Kemmie...I really have been enjoying the discs from the last Last Day adventure...I know a few friends like Paulyy & Maz are going...If I can get it together it will be fun! I can certainly use the exercise ((dancing!))!
And at last the rain has gone away!

Spring!
Woof!
One thing I finally got around to doing was dragging my old computer all the way up here so I could connect to the internet and send some of my files from in there to in here...I forgot how s-l-o-w the old imac is and it took forever to do this...I tried connecting the computers together because that was supposed to move all the files from old imac into new imac but it didnt work. After spending way too much time trying to send pictures to myself, I gave up and decided I'd rather spend the money and schlep that old thing to the Apple store and have them download everyting to disc for me...The old imac has no cd nor dvd burner and the old iomega is imposible...Well, I did manage to send some pix to myself...Here's a Bobby picture and a picture of a street in Amsterdam. I took it in 2003, in 2002, Scott and I spent hours & hours trying to find our way back to the hotel..we were jet lagged and coffeeshopped out and discovered we were walking in circles for hours- the streets curve and there were canals bordering every street, we never got the hang of it....finally we hailed a cab and found the entire time we were only five minute walk..So our first night in 03, I had the camera and took a pictures of the walk back to our apt...As long as we had the camera we would find our way..never needed to use it, we remembered all on our own...
This picture is our apt in AMS 03 ..
It's a stealth picture of Scott, appropo as it's his birthday next Saturday and (he doesnt read here-so I can tell ya) I am getting him an iPod of his own...
He has a somewhat larger or at least different span of what he likes in addition to Bobby..This includes anything ever played on the old KSAN FM channel during the 70's.
Like Jason, Scott went to SFSU for broadcasting. Spent a few years sampling/scouting music for the SFSU radio station...So now he can create his own songlists and whatever and I wont have to carry his Frank Zappa, his Steely Dan, his ELO,his Springsteen, his Phish or the Who or every cd he gets from his musician customers around with me any more (Am I terrible?)More room for Bobby & the guys on ours (gonna be mine)
I am terrible!
I hope he likes it- I bought it online (they engrave it free when you order from Apple). I'll have to teach him how to import and introduce him to the iTunes store..
Other news, someone has found my dvd list (Hi There!) and a trade has been arranged...yay!
And I've got my folks Acura (it's an extra car neither of them use) very cushy ride with a sateillite navigation system and luscious leather seats...

Grounded
My car is sitting in the shop ..I lost my power steering 2x this week...the first time involved being stranded at the craft store, a call to triple A and about the worst evereverever tow truck driver ...I'm used to being mocked by those guys for being completely helpless and forgetting to change my oil ...this guy actually snorted at me when I explained (he asked) why I wanted my car towed to a particular shop (owner's a friend and they shop provides pick up & drop off service)...After snorting, he cranked up the volume on the talk radio program he was listening to..a Christen station with a Preacher going on about women being made from Adam's rib and about woman's duty to provide a clean & (naturally) Christian home for her man....every once in awhile he would glare over at me...I didnt even wait til he came to a complete halt, I jumped out of there real fast- on my way climbing down, I saw on the floor of the back of the cab some porny type of magazines...
.........................................................................
So yeah, stuck at home today but it was fine, I spent a fair amount of time trying to organize some stuff...
took some photos of the trellis that I'm covering with beads & of the yard in winter..
and of my girls
The rest of the roll is online here
it started to rain...so back inside to continue some organizing tasks
Took a little time to list videos I am converting to dvd in the hopes I can trade them for dvds of the upcoming Ratdog shows..
This is most of what I have..I havent seen some of these in years...Excuse all the typos- I just tapped these into my son's Alpha Smart..I need to finesse this but in the meanwhile, wanna trade? I can only create dvds since we got rid of all our vcrs except the one that's in my dvd recorder thing.

This is most of what I have..I havent seen some of these in years...Excuse all the typos- I just tapped these into my son's Alpha Smart..I need to finesse this but in the meanwhile, wanna trade? I can only create dvds since we got rid of all our vcrs except the one that's in my dvd recorder thing.

Woke up to Ripple..It took a groggy moment to remember that KFOG was having Wake The Dead playing live this morning...Scott-he gets up an hour before I do- was just standing there waiting to witness my confusion...
Wake The Dead is still on KFOG and will be playing one more song before they take off...
if you dont know Wake The Dead check them out here
Enjoying the Celtic Dead so much..it got me wondering if there was a Klezmer take on the Dead out there somewhere and sure enough
