Peredhil Posted January 29, 2004 Report Posted January 29, 2004 Peredhil drives madly through the hallways on his Harley Hawg, his black bandana with the white MIA/POW "we will never forget" emblem on the front setting his raven black hair off magnificently. Screeching around corners and laying long black rubber trails as his tires grip the road like a fist, he wrestles the powerful motorcycle through its paces, racing for the Birthday Room. A grinning skull on his tie-die ripped sleeveless t-shirt, which uncharacteristically reveals lean muscles usually kept hidden under his more typical Armani attire, reveals a die-hard Dead Head. He notes that the boys have cleared the hallways ahead of him as directed to ensure he doesn't accidently hit someone - wouldn't want to be a Rude Rebel without Free Time. Spinning wildly he crashes through the large double doors of the Birthday Room. Responsive to his heart's desire as always, he's back in Monteray in the springtime and Jerry Garcia is adjusting the strap and plugging his axe into the amp. The crowd is already a mellow rowdy spread across the hillside on blankets, while the area front-center is reserved for attending Pennites and Vietnam Veterans on this one-night only return performance. The opening act, Phish, is crowding next to the second opener, Styx, both straining to see the big man as he lifts his bearded face to contemplate the first star of the evening, boldly pushing its light through the darkly purpled sky, fading reluctantly on the way to a diamond night on black velvet California night. The last lazy spin leaves his Harley Davidson next to a psychedelic VW van covered with bumper stickers. Cutting the snarling engine, Peredhil hears the sudden quiet filled with Jerry's voice as he says, "I just want to say a special thanks to the Vietnam Vets in the audience tonight, and a happy birthday to Kandara whose birthday brought me back for this set. Welcome home dudes, and thanks for serving in faith." The audience shivers and the guitar strings both shiver in anticipation as he lowers his burning gaze to look out at the crowd. On our journey tonight, let's start from the known, Uncle John's Cabin, and wander together where our spirits take us, knowing we'll be here together until the sun kisses our faces good morning..." And the magic begins...
WrenWind Posted January 29, 2004 Report Posted January 29, 2004 Wren spreads out her blanket and leans up against her cooler and pats the ground beside her for Peredhil to have a seat . and as soon as Kandara joins them she pulls out a birthday cake with little skulls for candles and sings happy birthday just before Phish takes the stage. Happy ,Happy Birthday!!!!
Ayshela Posted January 29, 2004 Report Posted January 29, 2004 *laughs* so perfect.. Ayshela seats herself behind Kandara, gathering his long hair to brush and braid it. Leaning up to give him a warm hug, she promises to give him his birthday present later.. personally.. Happy Happy Birthday!

X-Sabre Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 kandara likes Phish?!?!? You mean, there is another like me?! *hides* Happy birthday though.
X-Sabre Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 Oh wait, is that just P being a Dead Head with Phish as the opening act? Erm.. Either way! w00t. *goes off to listen to the Billy Breathes album*
Ayshela Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 *giggles* you had it right the first time. Kandara's musical tastes are almost as eclectic as mine.
X-Sabre Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 There are others that like Phish? I do not feel so alone now.. Odd.
