Remembering Root Boy Slim, who died 19 years ago today.

Root Boy Slim

I saw him three times, all at the Grog and Tankard in DC. He put on the greatest show. I miss him.

There was a guy in a clown suit throwing up pin joints that he had in a large paper bag to the crowd. There was a line of police horses between the park and the WH as if we were going to try and storm the place . . . We marched from there to the Lincoln Memorial to see Root Boy and it was just delicious! Boogie till you puke!!
