Group W Bench

Mr. Red Molly, my daughter, her friend and I went to the Florida Theatre to see Arlo Guthrie and his band tonight.

Here are some lyrics going around in my head right now:

Coming in from London
From over the pole
Flying in a big airliner
Chickens flying everywhere around the plane
Could we ever feel much finer?...

...You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant
You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant
Walk right in it's around the back
Just a half a mile from the railroad track
You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant...

...In the squares of the city - In the shadow of the steeple
Near the relief office - I see my people
And some are grumblin' and some are wonderin'
If this land's still made for you and me...


It was a very good concert, good singer, good songwriter, good musican, good storyteller...good time.

Good night.

To Jed, so true...forefather rapers.

To buddy don, it was great to hear Arlo sing Alice's Restaurant...it happened to be our second time to hear him sing it live. The first was at Newport Folk Festive in 1994 with both youngins' was with us. It was a true treat for the whole family to hear.


Thank you both for the visit.

Was it the third time seeing him live? I thought he was at Merlefest one year.
