Thank you Bobby: A Prayer of Thanks for Bobby Weir and The Wolf Bros’ Concert in Brown County

Bobby Weir and The Wolf Bros with lots of bisexual lighting on stage.

In the name of unwashed sinners, donaless vocals, and holy lyrics:

Dear Grateful Gods,

Thank you for coming to the Brown County Music Center Saturday March 19th at 7:30pm. My father Jeffrey and I soaked up the spirit of your fruits. We laughed, danced, and bowed in your divine holy presences. Fathers and Mothers, blessed are we for your miracle Shakedown Street, where broken bread and other unknown substances fed the masses. Father Garcia, you looked upon us during Bobby Weir and The Wolf Bros’ version of Mission In the Rain. Your spirit shone down upon us all.

Bless you gods for the gift of St. Jeff Chimenti patron saint of keys and O' Holy One guitar box man Barry Sless. Your homage to our spirits will not be forgotten and we hope for you return to Brown County.

One More Saturday Night

Lord, G-d, supply me with more of Bobby’s jivey guitar performance during Easy Answers. Bless me further with inebriated neighbors who understand not personal space nor where they are. Father, forgive transgressors who were arresting indoor smokers - those goofy goobers. Hear me, I pray and dear Father take your children home.

Bobby and his jivey guitar performance

In the name of spaced-out neighbors, old men dancing, and one more Saturday night to remember or, in some people’s case, forget:
Amen
