I got to see Little Feat at The Orpheum in Beantown when Lowell George was still alive - of all the bands I've seen live it was probably the most impressive performance - both as a group and individually as musicians. Man, they were tight as a crab's ass, too - even then it was obvious they didn't start playing together yesterday.

Speaking of yesterday, I wanna say that's about the time of the Dixie Chicken release, maybe earlier.

Richie Hayward - the drummer - was unbelievable, he brutalized the drumset and Lowell George was incredible - what a sad loss to suicide.

You're all gonna get tired of me playing remember when - but it's nice to still be able to remember when...

	"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
