A New Record
I made the trip from Athens to Fabulous Fruit Cove, Florida in 5 hours 47 minutes. I had estimated definitely estimated 5 hours 50 minutes. I beat my estimate. I definitely beat my estimate. And made it back in time for Judge Wapner the NFC Championship game, too.
How was the show? I'll let Rankin' Rob review it. I bailed a bit early (1:00 AM) after wretching from the heady aroma of 700 unwashed undergraduates crammed into a hellish steaming mosh pit of space meant for 200. Thank God I hadn't been drinking. That would have been a waste. I'm always tempted to reprocess precious booze vomit. Only my own, though, with my own Brita filter. And as it was 25 degrees outside, everytime I stepped out for fresh air it merely froze the sputum stringers to my chin in a kind of frigid gatrointestinal Fu Manchu. Most unsightly.
Welcome back, Rainman.

I vowed the next time I see an indoor DBT show to bring earplugs and a gas mask. I can't blame the excessive cigarette smoke on the audience, though. It's the band.
