I don't really care. This is a view of the weekend from someone who has social anxiety issues. I don't function well around large numbers of strangers (or even friends sometimes.) I'm most comfortable (or less uncomfortable) off on the edge of things with some type of prop to hide behind. If I didn't speak to you this weekend, or seemed a bit rude, it wasn't you; it was me. I was trying to breathe and not run away. Anyway... It was in Dallas back late last century when I jumped from someone who just posted on the list and emailed with a few other EDAs to one of those crazies that drives hundreds of miles to hang with a few other weirdos, sleep with plywood animals... and sometimes even watch some blond chick play guitar. I could just copy and paste that post here and save some time. Though some of the names have changed, all of those warm and fuzzy EDA feelings are still valid. I still firmly believe that Jewel is only a peripheral reason to attend an EDA gathering. Sure, she doesn't need a bucket to carry a tune, and sure, she is still filled with great stories, but you'll find those things in your fellow EDA at the gathering. Unfortunately, this gathering had to be kept semi-secret, but it was a great time to see old, old friends and meet new ones. Dave (_MAC14460@aol.com_ (mailto:MAC14460@aol.com) ) went all out in planning a EDA picnic the day before the show. How he was able to juggle all the ever changing details is beyond me, but he made the picnic happen. Gerrit (yes, that Gerrit of endor.org fame) lugged a couple tons of food and another ton of equipment to cook for us all. It was awesome food, and he spent almost the entire gathering putting it together. The gathering itself, was much like any other gathering. If you've been to one, no explanation is necessary, if you haven't no explanation is possible. Dennis Harris was his usually pied piper self, running around leaving mayhem in his wake (and probably sand in the bouncy castle belonging to the nearby kid's party.) Woody the Plywood Cow allowed himself to be roped a few times. People from all over the world, and from all walks of life came together and were happy without dropping bombs on each other. Many of the oldest of the old school were there with stories of text only interwebz, jewelstock, and driving across the country with fellow weirdos. Many of the newest of the new were there bringing in new vibes and new energy. Some of these newest EDAs looked like they were maybe twelve years old, and some of the other newer EDAs remember when television was the cool new gateway drug to rotting the mind. There were also EDAs by association, like my girlfriend Denise, Eliot's friend Jen, and so forth and so on who add an entirely different angle of things. These hangers on were sucked into the fun, and I'm sure all over Facebook there are new friend requests flying between people who both know separate people that were obsessed with some folk singer sometime or another. Of course, after the picnic broke up, tons of people ended up in several different hotel rooms until the small hours of the morning. Of course Luna had a guitar, of course jewel songs were sung/mumbled/chanted/mangled. As for the show, don't get excited. Like I told you, you should be there to see other EDAs. Jewel is just a side item. You could have missed the show and OMG! Jewel just played my favorite song that I've never heard live! OMFG!!1! She just played my second favorite song that I've never heard live! Ohmyfuckinggawd!!!!!!1!!!one!!! She just played my third, fourth, fifth and sixteenth favorite song that I've never heard live, AND an old song, that jaded EDA that I am, have never heard at all! Why is everything blurry? Am I crying, really? Why can't I breathe? Why don't I have all the album covers (including 0304) tattooed as a fat man's tramp stamp? My girlfriend, who has never cared much about Jewel, turned to me halfway through the show and said, "I understand now." I didn't really hear her bec ause I was leaning forward with my chin on the floor, staring unblinking at the stage, but she repeated herself later. Anyway, the show was okay, if you go for that whole best concert ever type of thing. After the show we ended back in several hotel rooms until the small hours of the morning. Luna attempted to teach me an Old Crow Medicine Show song on the guitar (never mind that I don't play guitar.) We all geeked out on concert photos, and finally after everyone left I got Luna to play guitar a bit. Which was awesome. All True EDA's (tm) have little boy schoolyard crushes on Luna. I'm sure her fridge door is still covered from red construction paper valentine cards from EDAs trying to get her to bring her guitar to Texas. Eric "Crashboy" also played one of his own songs after everone left. He claims to not sing or play well, but he is a liar. I really liked his song, and just bought some more red construction paper for his valentine card. I'm in the process of uploading photos, but you can get a sneak peak at _http://www.flickr.com/photos/rowdywhite_ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/rowdywhite) For some reason I enjoy taking photos of people taking photos, so ignore my concert shots if you are looking of jewel photos. She'll be out of focus in mine. But, come look at some EDA faces. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 19 Apr 2011 23:32:53 -0600 From: "Gerrit Kruidhof" Subject: RE: [EDA] Jolly good show, was it not?

I'm trying to separate fact from fable here. *** Then Larry shed his wisdom: Well, it IS a fabulous cow, so that makes it a fable. I've seen it. Not much to look at, but once you do, you can't take your eyes away (partly out of fear). Darn thing should NOT be able to communicate telepathically, but dang it if doesn't. It eats beanbags, if I recall correctly (which I rarely do). You just have to see for yourself, or maybe save your soul & run. Okay James, here's the scoop: Woody the Plywood Cow is something different to almost everyone, and indifferent to the rest. Anyways, that's what Woody said the last time I was listening. Then he ambled off somewhere into the darkness. (Oh, nix that, that was Steve Poltz after a 90's show) Just think along the lines of that "Yes Victoria, there IS a Santa Claus" story. You know, a character like the Easter Bunny or Sarah Palin. Remember, Woody is something different to almost anyone, and indifferent to the rest (refer to above paragraph.) Larry, you have REALLY said enough about Woody's unusual abilities. In fact, you have said FAR too much. (I'd suggest that you  ahem  steer clear of public wood chippers until I can give you the green light. Woody is sooo inspired by Stephen King short stories that go straight-to-video-download services!) PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT: Woody and I will be at the Dallas greyhound station around lunchtime Friday. Someone please pick us up and buy us cheese sandwiches. (50 extra credits if the cheese is of the Asiago variety) I'm looking forward to seeing some of the old familiar EDA faces, as well as putting some new EDA faces together with their posts, email addresses and social security/pin numbers! The part I hate is doing rock/paper/scissors with Woody to see who gets the coach seat and who goes in the Greyhound cargo hold. See some of you in Dallas at the bus station! Dennis Harris "Trust me.

I just have one addition: Unsung In Your Eyes. We still have yet to get a good recording of that beautiful song. As far as I know, the only times she's sung it in public was on the Lauren Hutton Show (which was recorded and is on - I think - Radio Angels but its not a great version), at the San Diego soundcheck which was taped by an audience member and was a good version but not a great recording, and Nashbash which wasn't recorded (or rather wasn't released or bootlegged). I know Alan has like 65 version in the vaults that will probably never see the light of day so a concert like TexFest would have been a dream come true! Wish I had had the forsight to go on the forum and pre-request it. Ah well, next time!
