Hello friends, I am back from my trip finally! It was a great time. I got to go to a lecture by Paul Stamets and go on a mushroom foray. I met a fellow Shroomerite finally! Psifun! (I think that's how he spells it). He is awesome.
Also got to go to the string cheese fest and I take back everything not-positive that I ever said about them because they are fucking awesome. Also got to see Michael Franti and Spearhead, Tony Furtato and Keller Williams who is just too damn cute and extrememly talented to boot, toboot!
Listened to the last Phish show on the way home and had a few tears....I'd been putting that one off because I knew it would make me sad but *sigh* it's great to know there is so much more great music out there alive and well.
Anyway, that's my weekend in a nutshell.
I missed you guys!

Hey nice to se you back. I hope to see a Paul Stamets lecture some time. How was he? And yes SCI is a great band. I'm glad you enjoyed them. Kellar is great too. I just downloaded this complitation of him doing all Dead songs and also a few Phish songs (Antelope and Runaway Jim). Great CD!
I have to listen to that last Phish show sometime soon. I see it up for download so I may grab it.

Heya KC! Yeah Paul Stamets was really really really fucking cool. He is definitely a wise, knowlegable soul full of light and love. I learned a lot from him. Amazing. Incredible. Hopefully you can see him speak someday, you will love him!
And with SCI, I haven't seen them in over 10 years....and wow. They sound totally different! I loved them! My kids loved them too, the dancing, glowsticks and hula hoops kept them busy all night.
K. Williams blew me away. He is such a genius! I still can't believe the stuff he did. He is so fresh and vibrant, what a great guy.
I hope you have been well. Grab that show, you won't regret it.

I will tell you which hotel we are at, then you can meet us there before the show or something.....or we can meet somewhere else. I hope that doesn't sound bad. I'm really not a scary person!

Cool- have you been to a lecture of his? I was so impressed. I couldn't believe how many people were there.....wow! He asked how many of the audience had/hadn't ingested psilocybes and most of us raised our hands for "yes". I love how he pronounces psilocybe too- I had a dream about it last night....I keep saying it over and over:
Suh-loss-uh-bee!

sounds liek a good time, meeting shroomerites is great, I met tripmeister, haning out with himn was a blast. I think SCI will become the "next band", they're awsome.

yeah i saw him at Oregon country fair, and was supposed to see him at Island Earth fair, but we ended up not making it (ugh... that was aday and a half...)
i have a few books of his... he is so intelligent!! thats cool he asked about psilocybes, he never talked about that when i saw him. he talked mostly of medicinal mushrooms.
if you're interested in various mushroom pronunciations, check out www.shroomery.org/spelling/

The lecture was all about psilocybes. That's why I went.
Thanks for the linkage.

Yeah now that Phish is gone, I'm sure they'll get a bigger following. I doubt they'll be playing madison square garden any time soon, but I've been wrong before....
I must say I really like the SCI crowd though, they are SO mellow and kind.

I'm hoping for Bisco or Mogwai or Ween to be "next" but i don't think they are hippy dippy enough for some folks it is time to stop keeping our jam music in the past and time to start thinking about the future! or maybe it is time for me to stop smoking weed and time to go to bed

psyphon is cool. Me, him, and Papaver wandered around OCF and had all kinds of interesting conversations together.
