Hey now people! What a fantastic weekend from start to finish, weather wise, music, friends, and laughter.. From the time Cornmeal came on to start the weekend off till the last note from the one man band singing until 5am Sunday morning, there was magic in the air.
So I pulled into the park a little early (2 days to be exact) and decided to get a great camping site and settle in before the chaos started. Ran into some of my "family" right off the bat and had a great dinner with them.. you know how to cook some chicken ya monkey... anyway... The family members just came rolling in one after another, and before ya knew it, I couldn't turn around anywhere in the park without seeing someone I knew..
...anyway, onto the music...
Friday opened up with Cornmeal, a GREAT blue/newgrass band from Chicago, followed by David Gans and then DSO... I believe they played Rob Eaton's first Grateful Dead show, which was 8/6/74.. First set was great and the second set was long and beautiful! Wavy Gravy commenting and sharing stories inbetween sets, and making everyone laugh with his animated movements and tone of voice. Donna Jean sitting in and singing, and seeing Tiff Garcia (yes, the man who cut off Jerry's finger back in the day) having a great time and enjoying the show. One couldn't ask for a better evening, and expect it to only get better as the days went on..
Saturday, was my personal favorite day for the Gratefulfest.. besides the hour downpour from the heavens, the weather, and music was FANTASTIC!! Started off the day with a couple swims in the lake, and then sat infront of the stage for the shows... DSO once again, rocked the night away with a steller preformance of 5/11/78, with a Peggy-O that made your eyes tear up.. Wavy Gravy at it again, telling stories, Donna Jean tearing it up with Lisa, and my favorite part of the night was the Family Drumz... Made my first, and hopefully not my last showing during drumz with a tamborine and woodblock, with Rob, Dino, the gang from Cornmeal, Dave, Debbie, RW, Prescott, Tiff, Zion, and a few I know I'm forgetting, thanks for the memory that will last a lifetime!
Late-night on stage was Zion Godchaux and BOOMBOX! What a GREAT show! If you ever get a chance to see that kid play, DO IT! After the music the party had just begun, and we played all night..
Sunday was the Benifit rally for The Rett Foundation, a great cause that raised over $5,000 for the cause! The crowd got to pick the setlists by buying raffle tickets and requesting the song... Raffle prizes included anything from free DSO tickets, to signed copies of books, to The Dead's final summer tour last summer, to old 1987 Grateful Dead Summer tour all access passes framed for all to see.. Hats off to everyone who provided for a great cause, and Dave Weissman who took alot of time to put this all together and be there everyday to run the raffle! DSO rocked the setlist from requests, and I got mine.. Standing on the Moon sent shivers down my spine..
Anyway, I won't ramble on to much, but I just have to say thank you to everyone who made that weekend special to me. You all are my family, and until the next time we meet, I will get by through the music in my heart... Sorry to those who I did not get to say goodbye to, but I know we'll be together again real soon.. Thanks to Wavy Gravy, Donna Jean, Zion and crew, Tiff Garcia, Evan and Christine, Cornmeal, Keller, and the rest of you talanted people. As for DSO and the extended family... see you all real soon!! Love you all!!
