Well, the Inaugural is over and I feel hungover. Not that post-euphoric letdown sort of hungover, I mean the real kind of hungover. I ended up going to what turned out to be one of the best Inaugural parties I’
ve ever attended, The
Red Goes Blue Party at the Old
Ebbitt Grill. The buzz on the street was the
The Dead were planning to join
Jackie Green and
Grace Potter and play until sunrise. So, amid flying rumors and wild speculation I headed down with my brother David and his friends, who
btw, are always a bad influence to my ever
virtuous lifestyle. It was a cool partying crowd, excitement filled the air, spirits were high, there was open bar. In combination, this all schemed towards disarming the Moderation Switch in my brain. Once that switch is disabled, unfortunately I posses no Off Switch. But, as
Mae West once wisely stated, “Too much of a good thing can be wonderful”. (click images to enlarge)
Phil
Lesh joined Jackie Green for
Sugaree, and Warren Haynes (
my favorite guitar player on the planet) sat in with Grace Potter and the
Nocturnals for
Down by the River. I sure wish Warren would have called me up to jam with him on that one. As it turned out, The Dead did not play until sunrise, but by that point it
didn’t matter anymore. The music was so good. That Grace Potter girl rocks harder than most dudes can even dream about. And, let's face it, how many girls do you know who can thoroughly Rock the House in White
GoGo Boots and a Flying V?
