Nine years ago, I read the news about Wes and wanted to know more. . . and found the Tripping Daisy Lure Tour forum. . . which became the TD Yahoo forum. . . which mutated to the PS Yahoo forum. . . which became the PS board. . . and now I am here in my favorite cave, Forkers Central.

Maybe the best thing to come out of Wes' passing (for me) -- you guys.

Thanks, Wes!

P.S.
Sorry to make it about me, me, me. I wish Wes hadn't died. His music has given me many wonderful memories.

i wrote this at that other forum but i thought it appropriate here, too:

my memory is of him, atom bomb tour, fall 98, lubbock on a cool saturday night. lite brite highway was opening doing their drone thing. a sea of about a thousand fratboys and sorority girls sitting down, utterly bored by them, and in the middle of this greek ocean, a lone mister joseph, standing, dancing, feeling the groove of their heavy, pounding music. watching trini pound them drums like animal, while curt and...i can't remember the other guy's name...were all long-haired and solemn in their pursuit of noise. i, of course, could not withstand the infectious groove, and i subsequently got into it.

over by the bar was this guy with a moustache, and as i grooved, i noticed him, and our eyes locked, a piercing look, he gave me a big grin, a nod that said, 'YEAH, BROTHER, FEEL THE GROOVE!' and a big texas-size thumbs up. i looked over to him a time or two and we exchanged nodding glances, because, damn it, the groove was amazing.

then i saw him up onstage, and he didn't smile a bit. he looked kind of lost, honestly. the daisy did their thing, and they did it well, though sadly most of the audience was there for the Bill and Firecracker 'hits,' which they did...in time. but i made the man smile, and that's all that mattered.

i prefer not to think of the guy i saw or the tired band that performed not but a few weeks before october 27, 1999.....
