  1. Santa Cruz just took a couple of nasty punches from Mother Nature, and a few more may be on the way later this week, but we will survive. Just like we've survived earthquakes, wildfires, and stuff like that. We live in paradise here, we just have to pay some dues once in awhile.

    Glad to see you're thinking of us, Thrasher. Wonder if Neil still does....

  2. South Oregon has been throwing up is the best description of Redwood . A mighty yet shallow rooted tree.

  3. Neil has been thinking of us fans a lot, release evidence shows. An embarrassment of riches.

    Even music Gods can retire, or retread. But when Shakey is standing still, he is still moving forward!
    He is incapable of not working, so it would seem. He will be playing live for us again, in some manner.
    We have a load of wonderful upcoming releases on the way, NYA 4. Don’t complain, Santa is listening!

    Atmospheric rivers / Superstorms from Global Warming can be a Bitch. That warmer air holds more water. High tide is starting to flood streets & homes here and there in Florida, SF, San Diego, and other places in the US, as seen during with the recent King tides. Global Warming harkens the scary times of 1963’s Cuban Missle Crisis. The young people today are again, as Dylan said, afraid to bring babies into this world.

    Just in time for the water wars. Some would have us polluting our precious water for reasons not well understood! Coal ash in rivers, pipelines under rivers?! Bad idea! Who’s Gonna stand up and save the Earth?
