Hey, Dwight Yoakum. Whatcha doing?
“Pickin’.”
And grinnin’?
“Eh. It’s been a challenging interview. Bob’s mind skips around a bit.”
For example?
“He just did a ten-minute monologue on either the Holy Modal Rounders or the Holy Roman Empire. Honestly, I couldn’t tell which. Most of his statements fit both topics.”
You need to remember that Bobby was taught the art of conversation by Neal Cassady.
“Yep, that’ll do it.”
The cowboy hats are kinda like parentheses for the group.
“You’re just as bad as him.”
Thank you.
Perf.

I’m gonna allow you to be wrong in public.
Consider the “donate” button mashed if you make this a thread.
Ste4ve…”mashed” as in you’ll make a large donation?
TOTD….It’s not possible for one to be “wrong” when one is simply expressing what’s import to oneself. In hindsight let’s put Pigpen up with Keith and Weir can be next, if for no other reason then the fact that he gave Garcia’s vocal chords a rest. And the songs he wrote with Hunter.
“Large” is in the wallet-eyes of the beholder, but yes, I’ll make it three figures. On the left side of the decimal!
I know you’re asking yourselves…what about Rock Scully? Rock should be right up there next to Phil Lesh. Dwight Yoakum and Neal C would probably agree.
