[RBW] Rivendell owners and Jefferson Airplane...

2012-10-23 Thread lungimsam
Are you both a Rivendell owner and Jefferson Airplane fan?
 
Was wondering about the SanFran cultural/possible generational link.
 
I am a Marylander. But a Rivendell owner and Jefferson Airplane fan. 
Listening to "You're my Best Friend" while cycling on quiet roads in the 
Spring is such a nice feeling.
 
There is a Rivendell/Mac question on Jim's site. Though more obscure, 
thought I would ask this one because of the SF area focus of the two, and 
I'm a fan of both.
 
Moderator, feel free to remove if this question is not approporiate to the 
forum, with my apologies...

This made me smile fondly.  I like Jefferson Airplane, especially "Bathing at 
Baxter's" and "Volunteers."  I am a big fan of Hot Tuna and have seen Jorma and 
Jack (and Barry) quite a few times.  Jorma and Jack have kept getting better 
over the years, especially with maturity and sobriety.  And I have been a 
Deadhead for many years' standing (dancing, more accurately) and have been 
mourning Jerry for a long time now.  Although some of the new projects (Phil 
and Friends, Furthur, the stuff Weir is putting out through his TRI studio) are 
really quite good and take this music in some different directions at times.

And- of course, since I subscribe to this list- I have found Rivendell and 
Bridgestone before that to be pretty copacetic with how I think about bikes and 
riding them.  Even in my racing days I preferred lugged steel (Bianchi Reparto 
Corse) or fillet brazed (Ritchey) frames, when everyone else was going to fat 
aluminum or titanium (I got out of racing around the time carbon fiber was 
catching on).  My Riv A/R and the Ritchey handle better than the Bianchis ever 
did...

Jefferson Airplane is fine; I don't have any of their CD's /albums 
(whereas, Led Zep, Pink Floyd, OCMS, etc., I have about everything of);

Whenever I think of San Fran, I think of the Grateful Dead.I have quite 
a bit of their music (not boxes of cassettes of shows (well, maybe some); I 
didn't make it to any of their shows, BUT!  Under my suit, when I got 
married a couple of decades ago, I did have a Dead shirt on, much to her 
chagrin...  

Only time I made it to Cali, was 20 years ago, spent a few weeks around 
Malibu w/ the 'Corps, only got to see Ventura/Malibu/Beverly 
Hills/Hollywood area...  On my to-do list is to get to SF/RBW, Shasta, 
Lassen, Yosemite, Tahoe, Whitney, Sequoia, Death Valley...  maybe one day...

I kinda like Santana. (Yes, also a Bay area group) Soul Sacrifice is great
for a long grinding climb or a sprint..
