[Hobey Baker]

So Moe is sort of the new touring band, or so my wives college students tell her. She got some instant street cred when should told them that we used to go to UB house parties where Moe was headlining the basement. Of course they sucked then.

I can smell Broadway Joe's as I'm typing this. Lots of miles (and hair) were put on my old '86 Jetta between '96 and 2000. I fondly recall eating an apple from the Fillmore in the back seat when we drove out to SF for Thanksgiving in '99. Sorry to reminisce...but wow, those were healthy days for the human spirit.
