Trey Annistasio Indianapolis 8/9/2005

> Hey Y'All,
>
> Another apology for being so late. Same work excuse. I spoke to Ernie earlier in the day from work in Dayton. I could leave work and make the show with a one hour time change. I also figured I would not get out much the next 2 weeks. I got to Ernie's house where we were picked up by Rannan and Julie. We got to the venue on time for the opener. The opener was Matisyahu, who also played at Bonnaroo. Brian was running Rannan's rig inside the VIP section. I got in there to set up. I really like this venue as it was my first visit. They even pass out free to use lawn chairs! Down by the river across the street from the AAA baseball park. The new NCAA headquarters is also a stones throw from the venue. The area is definately revitalized. I guess we missed a hurrican type storm that ravaged the venu 45 minutes prior to us arriving. It was not to rain again.

> There were about 3,500 - 4,000 people at the show. The Push On and Cayman Review were strong out of the gate. I thought they slowed it down for a few selections and finished with a strong Melody to end the first segment of the show. Everyone left the stage except for Trey as he donned an acoustic guitar. I enjoyed this part of the show as much as anything. His back up singers joined him after the first 2 solo acoustic numbers. This was the 10th anniversary of Jerry Garcia's untimely death. I will never forget that day as will many of you. I was in Monroe, Louisiana picking up a few items at Sam's Wholesale Club for the new account we were opening, the Monroe Civic Center. My pager went off about 8 or 9 times in a 10 minute span. I went to the phone in the store and got the horrible news.
> My boss was with me and knew how much the Dead meant to me. Anyways, back to the present. Trey said he wanted to dedicate the next song to "my favorite musician, I know he is listening somewhere". It was a heartfelt Ripple that followed. Later that evening, Sam and Diana called me from the Black Crowes show in San Francisco as they covered He's Gone.
>
> The rest of the band joined Trey for the rest of the set. I enjoyed the Shine, Sand, and Mr. Completely>First Tube. After the show, it was time to drive the 110 miles back to Dayton so I could get a 2 hour nap before getting up for work. It was fun hangin' with Ernie, Ranna, Julie, John Oak, Brian, Matt, Teresa, and Chris. It was great seeing Chris K. work his magic on the lights! He had a very busy week as he did lights in San Francisco for the Crowes show that was being filmed for DVD. He flew to New York the next morning to work the Mule/Trey show at Jones Beach, and now back with the rest of the Trey tour. Look for some very interesting things to come this fall from him as he lends assistance to another band!

> In the coming weeks, millions of students will be entering college for the first time. On average, these members of the Class of 2009 will be 18 years old, which means they were born in 1987. Starbucks, souped-up car stereos, telephone voicemail systems, and Bill Gates have always been a part of their lives.
>
> Each August, as students start to arrive, Beloit College releases the Beloit College Mindset List, which offers a world view of today's entering college students. It is the creation of Beloit's Keefer Professor of the Humanities Tom McBride and Director of Public Affairs Ron Nief.
>
> McBride, who directs Beloit's First Year Initiatives (FYI) program for entering students, notes that "This year's entering students have grown up in a country where the main business has become business, and where terrorism, from obscure beginnings, has built up slowly but surely to become the threat it is today. Cable channels have become as mainstream as the 'Big 3' used to be, formality in dress has become more quaint than ever, and Aretha Franklin, Kermit the Frog and Jimmy Carter have become old-timers."
>
> "Each year," according to Nief, "When Beloit releases the Mindset List, it is the birth year of the entering students that is the most disturbing fact for most readers. This year will come as no exception and, once again, the faculty will remain the same age as the students get younger."
>
> The list is distributed to faculty on campus during the New Students Days orientation. According to McBride, "It is an important reminder, as faculty start to show signs of 'hardening of the references,' that we think about the touchstones and benchmarks of a generation that has grown up with CNN, home computers, AIDS awareness, digital cameras and the Bush political dynasty. We should also keep in mind that these students missed out on the pleasures of being tossed in the back of a station wagon with a bunch of friends and told to keep the noise down, walking in the woods without fearing Lyme Disease, or setting out to try all of the 28 ice cream flavors at Howard Johnson's."
>
>
> According to Nief, "This is not serious in-depth research. It is meant to be thought-provoking and fun, yet accurate. It is as relevant as possible, given the broad social and geographic diversity of our students, who are drawn from every state and 50 countries. It is always open to challenge, which has an additional benefit in that it reminds us of students' varied backgrounds. It is still a good reflection of the attitudes and experiences of the young people that we must be aware of from the first day of their college experience."
