Fun show at Quarry House in DC

Real treat getting to play Jason Gerken’s Rogers drums over the last week. Even better getting to watch him play.

Comic panel featuring a kid driving a truck. It’s a view of the front seat, and he’s got a bunch of snacks and stuff set up next to him.

Finished the Mike Campbell memoir. I dug it. I don’t care for the post- Stan lynch era heartbreakers and this book didn’t really change that.

It did provide a picture of the band that didn’t seem to be sanitized by the petty estate, which was surprising.
Book cover for Mike Campbell’s book Heartbreaker. He’s holding a guitar and wearing a ridiculous hat.

Story from Mike Campbell’s autobiography about Stan Lynch and Bob Dylan blowing off band practice to go see Sammy Davis Jr and Sinatra. Tom Petty comes off as a jerk in this book, especially to Stan, so it’s funny to see him get told off by Bob Dylan
Anecdote about Stan lynch (original drummer of tom petty and the heartbreakers) arguing with tom petty about leaving rehearsal early to go see Sammy and Frank at the Greek theater. Bob Dylan joins Stan in playing hooky.
