Notes:

After a three month layoff, it was decided to try the Rumor's jam.  A decent turnout, tho a lot of the Trumpers were out and about.  Had some fuck in a white pickup and Trump flags run three red lights in Marion.

Dakota took over for Tommy in my appearance. 

I got there later, so I went on later.  Dave Bonham played along with Kimberly Trevellion on her songs. In usual fashion, she lamented that she would liked me to play but Bob Miller and DJ Hovenstot did a good job as well.    And she and her husband were gone by the time I got to play.

Tami Soukup, I love her and everything but Julie is still the one that I love.  Tami chatted about wanting to leave the state due to her situation.   I'd miss her but I do feel for her.

Despite the high COVID numbers, I think we had a good crowd, tho I did practice social distancing and wearing a bandana mask, hat and glasses.  Billy was commenting on a woman's pair of boots, to which she was talking up a storm.  Billy got showered with some spit from the excited woman.

DJ an Sir Bob did their trading of the drumstool and never missed a beat. Kimberly thought I should do that, but I didn't think that was feasible.   And besides, Terry left me finish the jam, playing a hour and fifteen minutes.   I did think Let It Bleed wasn't exactly done according to the record.  We played it too fast. 

It was the first time I played Purple Rain with Dakota since the Boy Scout Hippies two years ago.  Dee sang it like Prince did.  However Billy was happy that we got the guitar lead part just right.  I'm surprised that I could remember how it went.

Jenna B from work stopped up to say hi.
