Two things to note for tomorrow... there's a free concert in Tompkins Square Park during the afternoon organized by Jay "Blonde Boy" Wilson and sponsored by The Shadow. The music will be more of the jazzy/bluesy/rock variety featuring:

• Faith
• On Kaa Davis

    WE MISS YOU, BOB!!!!!!!!

    I always looked forward to Friday and Saturday nights to have wonderful informative conversations, share news items and hearty laughter as we observed the passing hordes of late night lunatics in front of Rays. Those were some really great times....

    I have to work today. Hard to see the posts about Bob wend their way to the bottom of the feed. Life goes on.
