Farewell

This is a lovely eulogy by Jason Carter for his grandmother, former First Lady Rosalynn Carter. May we all live lives with such purpose and impact.

Jason Carter reached out to Jason Isbell last week and said this:

High praise, that.

Next year I need to remember not to schedule my annual physical for the Monday after Thanksgiving so my blood test results won't say "gravy" like they did this year.

How's the petition for the end of Christmas Eve in Washington going?

I'm going to see Dylan tonight. Pulled up his latest record the other day so I'd know the words. I've been enjoying it more than I expected. Looking forward to seeing what ole Bob can summon at age 83, less than a week from end of this leg of the never ending tour.

BOB DYLAN IS STILL TOURING?!

not well, lost lady. not well.

Lumpy said...

Well shit. Sounds like Dylan is playing Roanoke tonight. Not sure how I missed that

It’s not too late, Lumps. Showtime is 8pm sharp. I won’t be surprised if I see people selling tickets outside, tho I don’t think it’s sold out.

star city the epicenter of the culture. who knew?

Lumpy said...

I had tix to buddy guy a few weeks back but he had to postpone due to health reasons. Apparently we’re the epicenter of octogenarian musicians

Rootsy- that’s tempting. I was planning on snoozing on my couch thru the ut/unc game. I’ll see if I can find a 2nd wind

Twas wrapped in Asheville NC. I'll take it. And bonus track, me number 5 artist is T Swizz. Serious street cred with daughters.

zman said...

I got Asheville too. That means nothing to me but perhaps Mr KQ and I need a minisummit/roadtrip to NC

mr kq said...

Never been Z. So overdue. Sounds like a bidnis trip to me. IN
