Many people approach me and ask the following question. Saf, what's better than a Pearl Jam concert?
High profile T-Dump outside Waffles Inc. on 5th Avenue. |
My reply. A second Pearl Jam concert.
Yesterday, I actually had an encounter with a Mike McCready imposter.
His wife said I was the 4th person he fooled that morning. Very convincing. Turns out he's some dude from Greensburg. Reminded me of when I met Phil Lesh at a '94 Deer Creek show out in the parking lot. The real bass player from the Grateful Dead.
Lesh's denials were persistent. "I swear, I'm not him. I get this all the time. Yada yada yada."
My final reply... "Alright man, why don't you just go and wave to the wind ?!?"

Let's give today's Orange Prolapse Award to the politically charged PJ frontman... Eddie Vedder. |
Night #2 awaits! Until Eddie Vedder (chapter 18) honors my suggestion, the Dumps will continue. Unabated! |
A Power T-Dump on Penn Ave. Why is Nicky's Thay closed on Sunday? We want apps! Specifically Thai Toasts. Also known as Thay Toasts. That's assuming you're originally from Martial County, WV. |
Step out of the Dump... and into the light. |
This Dump's BANANAS! B-A-N-A-N-A Anna's! Andy Bunghole Bridge. |
Gotta love that fly. Oh, to be a fly on a Trump Dump. Such an insectuous honor. |

A disgrace is, his wife’s face is
First Lady who me must defend
Euro-hated, his wife’s face is
First Lady who me must defend
Asshole gaped is, his wife’s face is
First Lady who me must defend
Wasted Reprise
Pearl Jam
I have faced it, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
Having tasted, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
I escaped it, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
I've always liked the Life Wasted reprise. The song has a poignant essence.
Sweet sweet Gigi! Random groupie hangin' with keyboardist Boom Boom Gaspar at the Fairmont in between yoga sessions with Lawn. |
