Two blue moons in one month...
Yep, it was a blue moon down here in Southeast Ohio… the humidity dropped and it was a beautiful weekend at the Fur Peace Ranch.
Welcome to couples weekend...

It just couldn’t have been a nicer weekend for teaching, learning, gigging and just hanging out at the Ranch.

Every Couples Weekend features the always changing but ever delightful Hurl’s Girls… and here they are in the Psylodelic Gallery, secretly rehearsing.
Saturday night… it was concert time in the Station. First Jack and Justin and I played as a trio…

After the group foto, Vanessa and I blabbed for a bit… and then it was time a great Student Performance… some really great music, topped off by Hurl’s Girls.
Good times!
What a blast… one more workshop tomorrow morning and the weekend is done… and a great one it was!
No one really wants their prized guitar to get all scratched up. Unlike lacquer cracks, finish scratches are caused by rubbing something on the outside of the guitar.
It was HIGH energy at FPR on Saturday night. Teresa just KILLED Keep Your Lamps and Feel So Good. Feel So Good and Wade in the Water were Lockn teases. Cannot wait! Thanks Jorma.
Concerning old favorites reappearing on the set list, I was quite fired up to see ‘I Wish You Would’ back on 4/16/15…a personal barn burner for me.
That was one of the best HT shows I’ve ever seen, incredible energy in the room. “Feel So Good” was just one of the highlights. I was there for Couples Weekend and it was just fantastic from start to finish, crackling with great energy and great people from all over. The concert was the icing on the cake!! –Ed S.
Hi all.
Jorma has 43 shows from now to the end of the year. Wow! I wish I could see all 43 but I have to work:) However I send kudos and best wishes to Jorma and Jack for continuing to play the music they love and we love to listen to.
Direct question for Jorma: Any chance you will ever play Las Vegas? (not joking around, I live in Vegas).
Echoing prior comments, Feel So Good was nice to see in the setlist it was always a barn burner. So was Invitation.
Amen johno. It seemed to go on forever at times didn’t it? The final show at the Palladium, the one that was broadcast had a Feel So Good that still gives me shivers. The return of Feel So Good to the set list is not a matter to be taken lightly. johno@johno
The plot is gettin mighty thick round here…..
Hold ON a minute here!….
First a return of the power trio…then the return “Feel So Good”!
Can a 35 minute Invitation>Crown of Creation>Invitation” be far behind?
The plot thickens…..
@John B
I bet they play it at he Beacon also – Its being called ‘Freakin At The Beacon’.
Back in the 70’s – ‘Feels So Good’ with Jacks requisite bass solo was the highlight of the show.
Memorable ‘Feel So Good’ in ‘Thirty Seconds Over Winterland’, topped by that smashing solo performed by Jack, and Jack i bet is preparing one of his master tricks to set in.
If I were a betting man my guess is that Feel So Good will be played at Lockin Festival.
Feels So Good!? Where and when ? Holy cow.
Captain, I sure would love to hear Feel So Good at the Beacon.
Wait a minute…Feel so Good?
I thought that might never re-appear.
I see the SF festival in the Fall is listed as Electric Hot Tuna duo. I’m assuming Justin will be with you? Either way, I’ll be there…calling for Feel so Good.
I just listened to Happy go Lucky Space Rats go Under Water. White Gland. Old Waldorf SF 6/8/79.
That’s some head bangin’ psychedelic jammin’.
Never thought I’d hear that again either.
Oh yeah.
*Gave Everything
@Steve Goldston
The passion and enthusiasm in that room last night was incredible. To me, it looked and sounded like you all have everything you had and more. Thank you for that.
