Bad Day Phishin'

I seen these guys wandering around the quarry yesterday and we tried just to get them out of there, no harm no foul... Never accused them of stealing and they were just looking for Quartz.
When we brought them to their car the red & blue lights showed up and I told them "not good, are you all cool ? " They said sure of course we are all good. We dropped them off, talked to the cop and said we had no problems. Cop said School reported the car "camping" . We watched a little while as the pat down went on and once the trunk was popped, so were the poor kids....

Sucks because they were not harming anyone or thing....

    I saw that article earlier today and was wondering if you saw these dudes!
     
    I caught the show on Sunday night with some old friends from PA who were in town for the festivities.  The show was good, lots of old jams reminiscent of the old school days when Phish would open for Santana at SPAC, or the road trips to Sugarbush we used to take in the early 90s... 
     
    Looks like these guys should have camped at Lee's Campground up on Saratoga Lake and skipped the quartz hunt.  The show was good and all, but not good enough to make someone camp at a school!?!

    I couldn't believe it at first when I seen them scrambling up out of the quarry pit. I asked them how long they been in there ? over night ? and they said they were wandering around a few hrs down in there. Lucky (but un lucky bust) we were not blasting yesterday or they would have been dust.. We blast about every 2 days.

    When they got in my truck I thought of inviting them to Jimmy Jam II .. Just kiddin I allready have enough Laundry here now

    "Rock and Roll" by Velvet Underground was pretty killer.... 
     
    Plus, I hadn't caught a show with "Antelope" in over ten years.  I used to R-O-C-K that one back in the day!

    crew up on the hill and I don't buy into their B.S. so we will be the last group...


    Phish... Seen them often, Joyous Lake, Glens Falls & Knick (or was it Pepsi ? ) great musicians , terrible song writers... Never did it for me..

    Now we're talking... 
     
    My big house speakers got a 'remodel' last weekend with new foam surrounds on the 15" Cerwin-Vegas...
     
    For speakers as old as they are, they have never sounded better...  Like brand new- almost TOO loud! 
     
    As long as the weather is nice, the Cerwins will be out in the yard with the amp, laptop and Tuna's iPod...
     
    The daylight hours will be a-rockin'...

    I've got that show, Brother...  The only drawback is that each disc is one long track...
     
    Great for long drives, but only if you want to listen to a set in it's entirety...
     
    I hate when I get discs like that from taper friends, but its better than nothing, of course.
