That was a good concert!

3. Back during the free Napster days . . .

. . . I downloaded that song. I don't know what version it is or what was done to it, but it is one of the cleanest recordings on my hard drive.

Maybe the best I have. It is so beautiful and mood altering.

Should be our National Anthem.

5. I remember going to work in the '60's when everyone was flashing peace

signs at each other in downtown Chicago. What a difference almost 40 years later and we are all giving one another the finger. I see it everyday in my busy neighborhood -its sickening to see the hate out there. It makes me want to cry.

4. "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas"

With Johnny Depp. That song is playing and Depp goes into this monologue:

San Francisco in the middle of the sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of….It was madness in any direction at any hour. It could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing, we were right…That we were winning, and that; I think; was the handle. That sense of inevitable victory over the forces of old and evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn't need that. Our energy would simply prevail. We had all the momentum; we were riding the quest of a high and beautiful wave.

So now - less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look west and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high watermark, that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back. R. Duke

Friggin' awesome!

7. You can make mountains ring, or make the angels cry.

I guess the angels are crying. America, America, God sheds his tears on thee.
