Had a blast at the Wharf! Hope ya`ll continue to make it a yearly thing. That would be awesome! Thanks so much for Chainsaw City. It is my favorite!

I like your thoughts about the flag, but it always hangs at the Wharf.

First off, let me say this about the 4/28 show...did anyone else besides me notice the huge garrison flag of the United States hanging on the left side of the stage? Does anyone recall the band giving thanks to the troops overseas who fight for our right to go see a Panic show in the South? They said it before the Saturday night show commenced...and I guarantee that Dave Schools and Jerry Joseph were the main reason for that flag and the heartfelt thanks that was displayed. I personally hung with both after a show in Charlotte, NC, at the end of a September 2004 Stockholme Syndrome show. The reason for the Stars and Stripes was a heavy military prescence in Orange Beach for the Mullet Toss, and the fact that a lot of the 10,000 in attendance were military personnel on leave or liberty, happy to see their favorite band rock and roll. Jerry Joseph and myself discussed elaborately the situation in Iraq, as it was my first "show" less then 24 hours after coming back to the US after a 7 month tour in Fallujah, Iraq, back in September of 04. The man respects us and he knows just like Schools who makes the sacrifices in our country. Jerry tells it like it is, and I believe he has the same vision as I do since his latest album is titled "April 19". Check out my April 19 rap and pics from Charlotte, NC, over at:

well we can`t all be aware of jerry`s favorite color...he is a great musician but does the little man have to act like that on stage(despite whatever upbringing he`s had) taunting jimmy on stage...we know they`re friends and all but what`s with the antics?

really hard to follow up friday nights show. boys seemed a little drained from the night before, or was it me. anywho, jerry joseph does write some good songs, so the boys do do him justice. can`t always get the set list you want, unless you went friday. energy was amazin, felt like the ole days again. had an all star crew which made the shows and the weekend. jimmy is a freakin` jedi

Jerry Joseph ROCKS...rough edges and all! I`m always amazed at the Panic fans who seem to love bashing on Jerry - especially the minions who do not know Jerry personally, or understand his troubled past or where he`s coming from (as if you know the WP guys so intimately, either.) This is a more common theme down South, it seems...but perhaps not. Not only is Jerry one of the band`s closest musical peers and friends (he has granted 1st Right of Refusal to all of his songs to WSP, afterall), he is one of the finest songwriters in America today, and a damn fine guitar slinger, to boot. Yes, Jerry is intense, raw, heavy, and brutally honest - but if you like the heavy-duty rock-n-roll side of Widespread Panic - and of course you DO - try opening your ears and your mind (your ass will follow!), and be touched by Jerry`s message, even if is intense and you feel like you cannot handle it. And for the record - 1) Jerry has indeed "layed off the pipe" but is still living with his personal demons, like all of us; and 2) with so many profusely lyrical songs in his catalog, he is bound to flub lyrics occasionally - just like our beloved Jerry Garcia and John Bell (in case you never noticed!) God Bless Widespread Panic, Jerry Joseph, and ALL of their respective family, friends and fans - past, present, and future - enjoy the ride!
