You have captured so many beautiful details, emotions and expressions.. I specially enjoyed the photos of the people getting ready for the wedding. I have planned? to do such an “intro” next time when I tale wedding photos as well.. Wonderful!

And just after I bought the new refrigerator–2 shelves where none are needed! Close the door and the light STAYS ON! Even now, 40 years after college, certain words or phrases will set me off and a Firesign bit comes out of my mouth. Everyone younger around me thinks I’m peculiar…I keep remembering that “the President of the United States is named Schickelgruber”. Damn.

UNHAPPY MAKNAM

Firesign Theater provided a significant percentage of what I and my friends said to each other for many years. Then my kids got hold of it and the quoting began again. I remember my son saying, (about I Think We’re All Bozos On This Bus) “WHEN was this recorded? It’s like 20 years ahead of its time, computer-wise” I can still do the first 3 or four minutes of Nick Danger, Third Eye:

Out of the fog, into the smog, relentlessly, ruthlessly (I wonder where Ruth is?), doggedly (dog barking), towards his weekly meeting with…

the unknown.

And so on for quite a while.

I prefer to think that Bergman is on his way to the Antelope Freeway exit.
Antelope Freeway, 1/2 mile
Antelope Freeway, 1/4 mile
Antelope Freeway, 1/8 mile
Antelope Freeway, 1/16 mile
Antelope Freeway, 1/32 mile…

.

There’s also a lot of material on the website (audio and video clips) plus loads more on CD.

.

See you on the Funway, it’s just a little less fun lately…

I saw Firesign Theater perform “I Think We’re All Bozos on This Bus” in San Rafael in October of 2010, and all the guys were sharp and vibrant and still funny as hell… adding updated references and material to keep it fresh, while still being essentially the same routine that the audience was able to quote word-by-word through the most classic passages.
