Just got back from a great day in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. It was "Westfest" (40th anniversary celebration of Woodstock). Tons of people were there. Great music all day long. I got to take part in a Guinness attempt for most guitars playing Purple Haze at one time (3,000). We were linked up with 1,000 in England too. It was great! I met a lot of fun people (I hung out with a couple that came from Ohio for a mini vacation to join all of us in a great day of musical fun). There were vendors (tie-died stuff evrywhere), musicians, side stages, acts galore...and of course, a naked guy (long story...or should I say short story).

I left home at 5:30 am (that 4:35 alarm was early) and got to SF a little after 6:30 am. Still dark but plenty of parking available at that time. Iwas about 100 yards from the event. I registered and picked my spot on the wet morninbg grass along with hundreds of others. This was at 7 am. The gig started at 9:30 am with some native American Indians giving us their blessing. We all did Purple Haze at 10 am and I think we got the record. Members of the Byrds played, Moby Grape, It's A Beautiful Day, Starship...and more! I left early as I wa pooped and wanted to miss the traffice heading home. I did miss the final act of the roiginal cast from Hair doing their thing (actually left early 'cause I didn't want to see them naked... what are they now, 60...70+ years old... and I had already seen the naked guy).  Anyway, GREAT DAY!

Thanks to all my buddy bands last night that kept me on the straight and narrow in Vacaville (Natasha James, Time Bandits & Gray Daze). You all inspire me and because of that I got my butt out of bed this morning to rock on!

Have a great week out there!
Music On!
