    Stoney-boy looked quite into it playing Down to River last Sunday. The boys made me feel so good. I was so high on Jeff's bassline, I crashed and had a honeymoon hangover.

    (Did that count for thread integrity while I flew a smile at you?)

    Edit: And fips health and happiness.

    I'm hooked on GR. However, with only the Seattle pre-show download, I have no idea, as usual, the name of the songs.

    "It ain't the summer of love, it's the summer of fuck." I'd call that one: "Fuck".

    I was at the very, very front of the stage, right in front of Stone. I wore a white, off the shoulder shirt. I had my long, dark hair in gorgeous curls. I stood next to a red haired girl... forget who she is.... I ticked off my girlfriend who had wanted to roam the grounds with me, but I refused to budge from the guardrail.

    This cute, young, blond security guy in the photographers' section, in front of me, came up and asked, "Did you miss me?" Weird moment of the day!

    Were you the one sitting down back against the rail until the show started? I remember she had brown hair, curls, wearing white I think. If so I was probably 1-2 people behind you. I had on a Mariner's hat w/ the City skyline on it, and a t-shirt will little diamonds, cupcakes, popsicles and stuff :) ha ha

    Ya, that was me. There was a cutie not far behind me. Too bad we didn't say hi.

    Ah cool! Sorry to stick my nose in here but I would have loved to have been there even more now. ...I don't know anything about Green River. Who else played?
    (And thanks for the video SoS).

    You do realize Jeff played in Green River, MCKB? He looked gorgeous and sounded like love.

    So pissed, his grin was likened to the Cheshire Cat.

    You lost your footing reaching for my hand, you lost your faith when I pulled you in, gave you nothing to believe in...
