The ice storm to end all ice storms... we packed our papers up that cold, icy, and wet February day. The roads were glazed with mirror ice and the paper delivery was in peril. Our usually happy and wealthy customers, in this small section of Pawtucket, we're somewhat miffed... to say the least. It's the willful abandonment of publications by the banks of the Ten Mile River. It's a poem of wickedly-cold conditions... redemption on epic scale. Be it cold, rain or snow, the papers must go through or as the saying goes.

Our usually happy, wealthy customers in this small section of Pawtucket we're somewhat miffed... to say the least. It's the story fortitude or lack thereof... the story of willful abandonment by the Ten Mile River. It's a poem of wickedly cold conditions. Redemption is on an epic scale.

With 4500 shows under his belt and associations with the likes of David Grisman, Howard Wales and the Jerry Garcia Band... not to mention the Grateful Dead and Bob Dylan... he broke new ground with original as well as covered masterpieces. We examine his profound impact on the world stage and make a feeble attempt to enter the psyche of this master.
