Railroad Earth playing Grateful Dead's Casey Jones
RRE was at HG last night. Someone asked me what kind of music it was. I didn't know. This is from their website: “We use unique acoustic instrumentation, but we’re definitely not a bluegrass band – so that doesn’t fit. And I think the term ‘jam bands’ probably refers more to the fans than to the bands. I think these fans just like live music.”

Boots Of Spanish Leather
This is my favorite song ever written. Dylan wrote it and Nanci Griffith does a beautiful version. I always thought it would be cool as a duet. I don't know who these people are, but they do a pretty good job of it.
"If I had the stars from the darkest night, and the diamonds from the deepest ocean, I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss, for that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'.

I loved you from the git go
I'll love you till I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye

The day you said goodbye
