Follow That Car!

True Story #2

My friends and I were excited because we were going to see the Jerry Garcia Band at the Keystone in Palo Alto.

As usual we are so damn late for the show & I am starting to really get stressed out because I just know we're going to miss Garcia playing. Not only that but now, we are lost as well. I start cursing at my friends telling them what a bunch of losers they are when all of a sudden to our right on the freeway is a BIG BLACK LIMO...

I start screaming, "follow that limo-that's Jerry in there I just know it." So we start following the limo which drives right to the backdoor of the Keystone. Jerry gets out & walks in the backdoor & my friends and I bolt in the front door.

The place is absolutely packed except for 1 little round table IN THE FRONT ROW! And nobody is sitting at it. So we grab it and sit down & onstage walks Jerry- 2 hours late for his own show and we died and went to musical heaven that night! It doesn't get much better :-)
