Gearing up for the Ratdog Show

Bobby Weir's post-dead project, RatDog, is coming to Cleveland this week and I'm starting to get ready for my dose of crazy.

I was never the biggest Bobby fan before Jerry Garcia checked out and previous incarnations of RD, in 96 and 97 led me to swear that I would never sully my ears again by listening to him.

As the Clintons know, though, promises are made to be broken.

I broke down a few years ago and started slowly easing back in and his band really has taken a nice shape and they have a very jazzy 
sound that appeals to my current tastes.

Rock on, Bobby...even if you were the Dead's equivelant of Ringo.

Here they are performing "Sugar Magnolia"...sans "Sunshine Daydream" ;-(
