Ran up to Jersey last night to catch tonight's (Friday) opening show for Phish. It's a Halloween three date stand where the band plays one of their famous "musical costumes", and last year the boys from Vermont covered all of the Stones' "Exile on Main Street" so this year, who knows? Me, I'm hoping for maybe some Zevon. Given the occasion I certainly expect, at the very least, a growling cover of Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein". It's their first ever show in Atlantic City, smack dab on the chilly ocean at Boardwalk Hall...a Nucky Thompson joint, not to get all Boardwalk Empire on you. Downside is it's a crazy turn and burn to get back down to Maryland for a Halloween party on Saturday night. No choice but to power through because it's a legendary neighborhood throwdown. Yes, my Elvis jumpsuit is pressed and ready. Did you have to ask?
