I know that at 33 yrs old I should have gotten over my infatuation with going to Widespread Panic concerts. Well, I haven't. It's just such an occasion where so many old friends, people I truly love, get together and just cut loose and dance thier cares away. Well, Mere and I missed Red Rocks this summer as we were in Italy (not complaining) and were sooo looking forward to the shows in Loveland, CO this weekend. Well, I will, unfortunately, be sitting here on my tuckus while all those CO friends I have dance the night away only an hour north of here. Fucking cancer. This is bound to be a depressing weekend, sitting here recouping from surgery and missing a good time. I know you can't always get what you want, but I just wanted to vent a little and feel sorry for myself for a second. OK, now it's out there. Now I feel better. If anyone is around Friday night and feels like watching football or playing xbox or something, come on by. Mere will be at the show (I INSIST she goes to at least friday. she's been here so much for me and so deserves going) & I'm flying solo.

Andy,
You will be of course missed. And think of it this way. It's just another show. There will be plenty more to come my friend in the long life ahead of you. So many nights and days to come where we all shake our bones together in frenetic frenzy.
Much love my brother.
Darrin
Andy,
Glad to read your getting better with every day! I still love and will always be infatuated with Widespread...I'm sure I'll be the old grey haired lady dancing funny at their shows. Abaco and I just moved back to Florida and I finally got my internet hooked up, so I'll be in touch.
Stay strong my friend. Still thinking about you guys daily.
Love,
Sara
No worries Andy, as Darrin said...there will be many more to come! We will be thinking of you and will most certainly shake our booties w/ mere for ya.
love,
jules & andy

Get Xbox Live so we can play online together! Just got Halo 3 and it's sick.

Why don't you and Kyle rent Tootsie eat hot buttered popcron and water the banzai? There's no football on Fridays you boob.
WSP in Colorado, cool, yes.... but your ass will boogie down in your hometown (and theirs)for New Years.... much cooler.

Andy-
In 20 years, you and Mere will dance in the aisles at yet another Widespread Panic concert and embarass the hell out of your kids (who will be there because it's "nostalgia"- been there, done that!). It's great becoming an old geezer- you'll see!
Keep going back to the positive thoughts...it's the #1 tool in your fight. kick butt-

Hey Dut-
Just wanted to let you know that you won't be flying solo tonight if you don't choose to. Will and I won't be going to Panic tonight since we've only been back from Italy a matter of hours so far. Will is cooking up some yummy elk green chili and beans and rice as we speak. Tody we'll be running around town and tonight we are going out for dinner (making the most of a rare day off together.) But in between and afterwards we'll stop by to x-box it up and have some laughs while Mere and the gang shake it up in your honor. Let us know if there is anything else we can offer. See you soon!
ummm Hawaii at san jose st tonight , you boob josh.
Josh, will you please leave Tootsie out of this...
Andy, maybe it will be a lame show that has a Drivin>Wooly>Can't Get High>Walkin>Josh is a Boob>Drums>Boob Jam>Drivin'

Andy-
Just got off the phone with JB, who confirmed that the setlist for tonight is already locked down:
I: One Arm Steve, Makes Sense to Me, Blue Indian, Imitation Leather Shoes, You'll Be Fine, Action Man > Bayou Lena > Big Wooly Mammoth
II: Casa del Grillo > Coors Light Jam > Imitation Leather Shoes > Yard of Blode Girls*, Tortured Artist*, Meeting of the Waters* > Drums**> Christmas Katie, Time Zones, When the Clowns Come Home
E: Clynic Cynic, Counting Train Cars
*George McConnell solo
**with Carrot Top
so you're not missing much. I'm not going tonight either...this is the first time in the last decade that panic has been within 4 hours and I haven't gone. I'm feeling satisfied about making one out of two. Hoping I can make it down to d-town to hang with you some tonight.
Muuhayyyyy baby doll!
I promise I'll give it all I got to shake it down for the both of us! You will feel it resonate, cause we are connected like that. I will be thinking of you more than every second. A trillion thoughts of Andy will be floating around that venue tonight, from me and the whole possie that misses you tonight!
Like everyone has said, it's just another panic show and we so many more to look forward to. Guarantee the show will suck just cause you won't be there.
Regardless, I'm going tonight to get some of this tied of up energy out of me, wearing my yellow bracelets in your honor, ready to swing em and shake em in the air!
i love you
when do we get those blue bracelets?
justin really did talk to Jb today and that is for sure the set list! we arent missing a damn thing besides the coors light jam!
