Hung with this one’s brisk, confident, and enthusiastic pace up the trail; moving through the heart of the journey being both reminiscent of other outings during this time and distinct unto itself -- while all the while quenching that ongoing pursuit of exploration; upon return, still enjoying the forever altered familiarity that began with that timeless tap on the shoulder.

I can see where not being in the room might compromise appreciation, even though I was fortunate to have been there. But that solo is a prime example of how that x-factor is always right there, waiting just below the surface, ready to sneak up on you before you know it -- bursting forth to grab everyone’s attention and turning that place into one. This is the passage into another dimension that kept us coming back… and even if you didn’t hitchhike across the country eating PB&Js you can understand why. And of course the whole show is great – another special engagement in the privileged experience of having your mind blown so many times you’ve happily lost track.
