Oh, and guess who's playing Symphony Hall here in Boston tonight?

Arlo Guthrie.

2005 is the 40th anniversary of the Alice's Restaurant Massacree. You know. The event that all started two Thanksgivins ago -- two years ago on Thanksgivin.

And I can't go! Weep, wail, gnash, etc.

Gahh. I went to the 30th anniversary concert, at Carnegie Hall. Which means, y'know, that was like, 10 years ago already!

I'm going tomorrow out here.

Where's he playing out there? The Calvin?

I am so jealous.

Fine Arts Center at UMass.

I haven't seen him play since I was 5.

Now I'm more jealouser.

I walked past the poster outside Symphony Hall last night and thought to myself that his hair seems to be evolving into a separate, sentient being.

It's important to note that this makes the event 42 Thanksgivin's ago. Make of that what you will.

Indeed. I saw Arlo (and occasionally Pete, Sarah, Tao, etc) at Carnegie Hall every Thanksgiving weekend for many years. He puts on a great show. :)

The actual event is 40 Thanksgivins ago. The Anti-Massacree Movement was started 38 years ago, then.

Ah, sorry. I was confusing the Massacree anniversary with the Album release. I stand corrected.

I had a friend, a friend I could trust
He went into the park and got busted
Doin' the Ring-Around-The-Rosy Rag
