This was posted on the ABB band listserv. This is quite a different take on Ramblin Man but cool none the less. Ed http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=OqZzKhRMJVQ#at=73

Hi Rainy, I had third row seats that night...it was a great night of music...sad about Jerry. I looked around, but I don't remember seeing you there! I'll bet that over the years, some of us have passed each other without knowing who they were. Wishing postitive things for Nic and Kitty. Mitch PS Jessica is on the radio as I type this.

Lots of people dont like the sound mix at the Beach... It was always good for me 🙂

Hey Pinto! I don't think I knew about the album that George produced for Alvin Lee. Always loved Alvin Lee and Ten Years After. I'll have to keep an eye out for that cd! George had such a great sense of humor. Nic - I don't envy your appt. with the oncologist - sending you love and strength. I'm doing OK for now. Yesterday wasn't my best day, but today is pretty good - low humidity makes my joints much happier. I'll be getting another epidural in my neck in a few weeks. This really helps with the nerve pain in my arms/hands. Since I've been having those shots, I've been able to do completely normal things with my hands and fingers - an absolute blessing to be able to peel a garlic clove, sew on a button, dry your hair or open a bottle of water. It seems like nothing, but when you can't do it, it's very frustrating. And Neil (CanPeach), what can I say. You were absent and very much missed. I'm so glad you're back. You have such a generous spirit and have done a wonderful job honoring Dickey. I'm proud to call you my friend and brother. 😎 Love and good vibes to all. Thinking of Forrest Sibley and all those who have been in harm's way recently. Praying for their safety.
