Flew up to Chicago for the May 5th show. Totally blown away. Rocked my soul...Got up the next morning and went to the airport. Standing outside the terminal smoking a cigarette I look up and see this guy that looks like Mickey Hart. I look at him for a bit and still think he looks like him. I go over to him and said, "Has anyone ever told you you look like Mickey Hart?” He said "I've heard that before..." says thank you and shakes my hand. I go back over and finish my smoke still glancing at him but I just don't think it is really him. As I am going through security it is dawning on me that it could actually be Mickey Hart. I am turning around looking for him to come through security deciding I will ask him if he is Mickey...I turn around and see this dude that looks like Bill Kreutzmann. Carrying a bag with BK on it. I about fall over. I go up to him and say "Billy?" He turns. "Bill Kreutzmann?" He says yes...I was floating on cloud nine. Got a picture with him. Gave him an Irish good luck charm and some for the boys. He even bought me a beer. Talking to him and mention I thought I saw Mickey and told him about it. He said yeah that was him...What an ending to the best concert experience I've ever had...so far...
