Lafayette, the latest e-mail I recently received fom Farm Aid still will not divulge this year’s location.
You, being an inside job of sorts must have a clue.
Hope it’s within reasonable driving distance of Ontario.
Oh well, just over a week to go for Windsor.

p.s. really liked the entire 7609 box package.No, I am clueless in Cincy…by my choosing. A friend who has the inside info was going to give me a hint and I refused. I told them I did not want to be disappointed for weeks before the announcement if I am not within driving distance. So, I wait. The announcement is usually mid-July.
Oh, very good on the box set! I still have to make reservations 😯 I will take care of that very soon and PM you.
Lafayette, I would like to wish you a belated 2nd anniversary on this Friendly Forum.
Unlike, Cherry Bomb where you have been a forum member since almost before you were born, this Forum of Lu’s and aptly administered by WebMASTA indicates you joining July 10, 2008.
JM sends his greetings also.

lwj joined my husband and myself for a JM show in Windsor ON at Caesar’s Casino. We ran into half the band at the bar after the show, so lwj had an impromptu band M & G.

A blog I wrote about our return trip crossing the border.

Thanks Lafayette for posting the pic.
For those in the Friendly Forum, all the banter Lafayette and I have exchanged over the last several months about all kinds of great music artistry certainly came to fruition Thursday in Windsor.i.e. now able to connect the …… and meet an extremely nice and devoted “Mellonhead” fan and her husband in person and to express my appreciation to her for encouraging me to attend this great sold out concert with JM.I hope I can again see JM at Farm Aid this year.
Not only did we enjoy a meet and greet with the band after the concert, we also bumped into Jon E. Gee the bass player before the gig in the restaurant.
Secondly, I again have to thank Lafayette for “upgrading” my ticket from the 9th row to the 4th row centre stage while she took first row standing by the stage for the duration of the concert.
Here is JM solo on stage.[attachment=0:27nhf8wn]JM solo Windsor July 15 2010.jpg[/attachment:27nhf8wn]
Loved your border crossing blog and thirdly, a big thank you for the momentos including JM and Lu posters and the Mike Younger CD which I loaded into the car player for the drive home..
lwjA pleasure as well, lwj. Next show we do will have to be a LU show. GA…that way I don’t have to climb over 3 rows of seats to make it to the stage 😆

Hey Lafayette, thanks for uploading “Save Some Time To Dream” to You Tube from the new album.
Was this a 4th row recording or by the stage?
Great quality.
Have a listen everyone.
Link now deleted. Awaiting a new upload.
New upload is great Lafayette, thanks.

It was a 4th row recording, however, I’m being told it is buffering way too much. My friend wants me to take it down and put it back up again. Both of my uploads are buffering, I’m not sure why.
Well, last night one of my friends attended Rockfest in WI. Today, I noticed I had a missed call at 1:43 a.m EST from my friend. I was sleeping. I figured she was calling me to give me a concert update as I was the one that talked her into going, it was very near her home and she doesn’t get to see JM all that much.
Today, she told me, nope it wasn’t an update, John was doing his cell phone schtick during Jack and Diane, where he asks a fan to phone a friend and he talks to them. She phoned me! I was in bed. DANG. As it turned out, the phone call dropped anyway, so its not even on voice mail.
Here is the photo of JM on the phone with “me.” (My friend befriended the concert photographer, 8) )

I edited my post to delete the link on “Save Some Time To Dream” and look forward to your upload again.

Too bad the phone call dropped.
The Casino Rama show on July 14th had the same tel. call thing.
Not sure if you have seen this video but someone really composed an innovative one.
It is a full 10 minutes and shows the live Rama show interspersed with an old/new photo collage and old/new video.

Farm Aid …..Oct 2 in Milwaukee, WI at Milwaukee Brewer’s Miller Park.

So, there you have it, lwj.
