hey sorry… i posted the blog on next weeks dead hour site!!! but if you read this one first, what happened with the music…. it went to silence… and more silence and MORE SILENCE!!! it was quite dreadful. the second half never came 🙁 what happened???
I catch TheGDHour about 3wks late in BoulderCO & just heard Bobby’s remarks during theHour’s part-2 of #927 — & altho I’ve been a musical fan of theGD & all of the take-off bands for well-nigh 40yrs (I’ll soon be 60), have been to many many live-concerts, have many albums, & have been a steady listener to theGDHour — it was w/ an increasing breathlessness & horrified dumbfoundeness I took in what he said about his forecast of our future & his comparison of Bush to Hitler. I swear, as much as I like & have always liked his music, when it comes to politics — he’s another pitiable nutjob. My breath was lost in that instant because it was my esteem for him plummeting. I don’t suppose he’ll take my advice about just keeping his evening-employment & laying off the jackass pronouncements, but like the long long list of points theLeft has prevaricated in the last 5-or-so yrs – Time will relegate that part of MrRobertWeir to the dustbin too. I’m a life-long voter(Democrat) who can’t stomach the libs pretzel-logic anymore. Bob’s mouth & the anti-war Left just piss me off.
