Kimock for Ratdog

This from RatDog Central: As many of you already know, RatDog's sterling lead guitarist, Mark Karan, is experiencing a health problem. Said Chief Dog Bob Weir, "The docs want to have a close look at our brother Mark over the next few weeks, and we're gonna have to go with that. Our old friend Steve Kimock has graciously offered to cover for him for this tour, and so we're thinking we should go with this. We'll be in touch with Mark daily, and if his docs cut him loose, we'll bring him out. The show must go on, I think, in everyone's best interest. Here's to HealingS" Steve chipped in. "First, I'd like to wish Mark a speedy recovery, and secondly, I'd like to thank Bob Weir & RatDog for this opportunity to serve our music, family, friends and community during Mark's absence. Love is a service done. Gratefully, SK." Finally, we checked in with Mark. "I really appreciate all the love and good vibes I've received since announcing my need to take a 'healing break.' I'll be very sorry to miss all these great summer shows this July, but I'll be back ASAP and I'm sure my ol' TOO-mate Senor Kimock will do his best to add something special to this run. Keep me in your prayers, and meantimeS"Hey, heyScome right awayScome and join the party everyday." Hmm, good thinking. See you down the road, Milwaukee first. --- - - - - - - - - - - - - - Spanish Jam

ratdog

I went to my first RATDOG show a couple weeks ago up in NEW HAMPSHIRE and it was a great show. I am looking forward to my next one

Bob or Phil!?!?! PHIL OF COURSE, PREFER THE DEAD!!!!

Its ALL ABOUT THE $$$ for BOB sadly NOW. I met him, bopught the dude a 300$ bottle of whiskey and he was so rude, he could have AT LEAST asked me if I wanted to take a shot with him.. I wasn't trying to bother him at all, just saying hi, and as a FELLOW musician I have noticed his shows get SHORTER and SHORTER, less encores, and meanwhile, Phils shows get BETTER and BETTER and LONGER!!! PHIL AND FRIENDS RULES!!! Although i wish BOB could put aside his EGO and just rejoin up with phil and the drummers and get a "The Dead" tour going on!! I still love Bobs music and his guitar play'n and voice but after meeting him, I was turned off by his EGO... God bless him anyway!!! The music never stops...

Albany Ny

Albany was a alsome show Weir took me on a wild and strange trip into the dead archives ty Weir c u next year

Oct 26 show Kimock was cooking and Bobby on as usual

Shut up with all this Bobby vs. Phil crap...I do wish the Dead would get backtogether and bring in Karan, Kimock and Trey if he plays like he did at Glenns Falls (if not stay home Trey- I am no Phish fan)...sorry.. Phil is awesome musically but the vocals are weak at his shows with always being Phil... Ratdog is a little bit more evolved although it took Kimock a while to hit his stride he is defnitely cooking..the point is really we all would rather see THE DEAD tour not with Warren but with guys who honor Jerry by playing not exactly like Jerry but like Jerry as do Karan, Kimock, and Trey (man he was on in Glenns Falls-gues the DUI arrest sobered his musical ass up).. he was tapping the cosmic vein on that show...turned on by a friend who attended... And they should bring HUNTER Out as the OPENING act for god sake...fucked up arm or NOT the Jerry and Hunter together shows back in 80 were some of the best freaking shows ever... SO THERE!!! BOYS---one more time!! How about the Righteous Dead! Be righteous boys... and Hunter is right--Planet Drum should have sold a million..just Joe Hill alone is worth the purcahase price....get it together boys.... "if the Thunder don't get ya then the lightning will!"- The Wheel "Gonna find out something only dead men know" - Silvio Class of Red Rocks '79... Life without the Dead is not life...and so we carry on...
