My pool had Florida over Duke as well. Unbeknownst to Carin, I hedged the bet for tomorrow night. I like Florida so I put something on them. Either way, we still win but I cut into our winnings.

Old stock market axiom which is probably applicable here, no one ever went broke taking a profit.

True, but it is betting. I suppose in a sense, so is investing in the market. Not my favorite topic these days.
However it plays out, it covers my Peter Frampton tix next week and Neil Young in the fall. That's how I look at it.
Now if I can figure out a way to pay for my Mule/Tedechi Trucks Tix.

I will be at Neil Young, and I think my tickets are close to Droogie's ...

Don't have tickets to Tedeschi Trucks/Mule yet, but I might try to go ...

You should go. I can't believe how cheap the tickets are. The Neil Young seats are 3x the Tedeschi/Trucks prices.
I hope they don't play Soulshine though.

Goooooooooooooood 'ol National Empanada Day! If you've never tried these tasty appetizers, you should.

Saw Smiley Tillmon Band at a local microbrew last night - fun as always. He is going to be 85 in June ...

Goooooooooooooooooooooooood 'ol National Peach Cobbler Day! There must be an ABB connection there.
I was going to go see Duke Tomatoe last night at a blues club, but I guess that isn't the same thing.

Duke is still playing? Used to go see him at Fitzgerald's when I first moved to the Chicago area - which was 1977.

Yep. He plays Kingston Mines frequently. A place I haven't been to in a few years. Larry McCray was the last act I saw there. Right before COVID.
Lil' Ed plays there all the time, but the bands start so late on weekends that I can't make it.

I find this day to be more taxing than most others....

Highly unlikely that Neil Young plays Soulshine.....

I thought Neil Young was playing in the Mermaid Theater these days

Years ago, Neil played Radio City Music Hall on a Wednesday. I went. The ABB played the next three nights at The Beacon, which I also attended. I sure was hoping for a sit-in. I thought maybe Neil could hit The Beacon the next night. Alas, it didn't occur...

Had to have been late '70's when I had a subscription but I remember a mention in one issue that Dickey had joined Neil onstage at a NY show. I don't recall that it mentioned the song(s) just that they played together.

What was the subscription to? Rolling Stone or something? That would have been really cool. I love Neil. Haven't seen him in a long time.

Yes, Rolling Stone. They had a weekly page, small little snippets about the music industry. That's where it was mentioned.
