Notes

Traffic today is a breeze: just a little sluggish at the bay bridge interchange, and then middling slow crossing the Richmond Bridge. 40 min compared to yesterday's 70. I'll take that!

Snafu with the admit list keeps us standing in the sun until 2:45 PM or so. Not good! At least we get a good spot inside on the rail: almost the same as yesterday, maybe 18“ closer to center. No big sub in the center today, just two smaller subs at side stage: strange!

3:35 PM today's show hasn't start yet, dang! Steve and Lebo have been out to check on things: might be waiting for the crowd to finish coming in? Or for the four o'clock breeze too start blowing? Dunno. I'm ready to boogie!

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
