I was lucky enough to see Levon a few times, most recently just a few summers ago when he was sure to invite the entire audience back to his place for a Midnight Ramble. He darn near gave directions on how to get there! _________________ Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for.

I went to Levon's wake at his studio this morning. 2,100 people showed up. Very moving. _________________ Dog is my co-pilot. |

Always loved Levon's voice and drums, seemed a good counterpoint to Robertson's ego.
Liked "Cripple Creek" so much I serenaded my roomate and his girlfriend with it in my sleep in our 1 room apartment while they were having a bit of the "excitement"!!  _________________ "*DON'T* ride that thin line between hero and organ donor!!" -the "new"rid'nthinlines" |

I can't take the way he sings, but I love to hear him talk. _________________ Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for.
