I didn't miss the concert but Gregg Allman did...

at Floydfest so first one he missed, played again at his own festival in Oct but yeah, pretty much it. Promised to "make it up" but we all kinda knew that wasn't going to happen, even the reason to go to Floydfest that year, say our goodbyes.

Should have seen Johnny Cash at the Birtchmere, heck, was standing at the door even but the 8pm show was sold out, but not so the 10pm show! But I had to work the next day. never learned the art of calling in sick. (kicking myself) I mean, he didn't die right away, I think this was his warm up tour for the Traveling Wilburys but probably my last chance.
