We went to Yoshi's SF to see Bobby Hutcherson's 71st birthday show and it was amazing. He now wears an oxygen tube in his nose full time with a very long hose to the back stage. Warren Wolf doubled on vibes, Anthony Wilson played guitar and other great players, but Bobby was the true star. Such a showman and wonderful spirit and he never ever hits a wrong note. Couple of pics I wasn't supposed to take, including a blurry pic of Kaz, the club owner, giving him a cake. Bobby said it was perfect that it didn't have candles: "I'm out of breath and couldn't blow out a single candle."

Stay dry!

Fly safe, Nate. Where to exactly?

Have a high one, Dom! Cheers!

You don't think he will stick with the naming scheme and call this one Tit Anus MD2?

Sounds great Mike [even more] Sr.!

Aaaarrgh! Have a great one, Pirate Mike! Cheers!

Jeff is a good photographer.

Hope you get plenty of T Money for your b-day, fool. Cheers!

Vespers, stat!

This thread needed a little Top Gear to round it out. Happy belated birthday Grahame! Mexican yoga retreat internets were not up to snuff so I was unawares. Sounds like it was a great day. Cheers!

Yay Vicki! I can't see your office but I am sure it is great. I hope you keep feeling better and better. Mazel tov Todd!

Now THAT is zen! I like the way you think Steve, and Dan knows me too well because I was scoping it out on the way here. And Steve, there are so many gay men attending this wedding! You type even. Pics tomorrow.

HBD John! Sorry for being mean in the other thread, I didn't know it was your big day. . Have fun. Cheers!

Only slightly better John. Congrat Haj! Waiting to board a flight Puerto Vallarta for a wedding. Sounds good but I only learned last night that the "resort" is a "yoga retreat and spa" that doesn't serve red meat. Luckily they serve booze or I'd be reconsidering right now.

Depending on the date?!

I think I would fly through Chicago so cocktail opportunity awaits.

Absolutely. That sounds great. You need to learn some new skills for this one, but I know you're an expert. Not sure yet, but in the next few weeks.

Excellent. Perhaps you can identify meeting locations with cocktails in addition to the Violet Hour.

I'm just realizing the side benefits of arranging interviews with some potential experts who are Purdue professors. Google Maps says it is only 1 hour 49 minutes to the FFF brewpub and therefore the HC Chicago crew! Planning takes on a whole new meaning now.

Want. Burger. Now.

Twice!
