| Say it ain't so--Tom's joined the SUV crowd! |
The old Atlanta homestead. |
Gwen's "Pick U Wind" has gotten spiffed! |
Our old intersection back into Buford Highway--a surprisingly safe and easy left turn across 4 lanes of traffic. |
Ahhh, greasy and cheap is always a tasty combination. Murray's doesn't disappoint (be sure to ask for their garlic crust). |

| Steve and Tom stock up at a vending machine at the Japanese restaurant (they always have the best). |
Ahh, and now I make it to Athens for tonight's show. My first stop has to be a pilgrimage to The Varsity Athens. |
Inside, the air is heavy with the sweet smell of well-maintained friers. |
Hey--it seems like a little bit of San Francisco! Thankfully my karma still feels just fine. |
Athens City Hall at night. |

 |
| It also has a noteworthy (unique) double barrel cannon. |
Final view. |
I suspect this is an unaffiliated place of worship.... |
Street Bulldog. |
Outside the world-famous 40 Watt. |

 |
| You can see Kevn on the marquee. |
And here's the stage. |
A random snippet of video (did I press the wrong button in the dark?) of "This Train Don't Stop at the Millworks Anymore". |
And finally here he is, complete with his son Tyler on harmonica. |
A bot more of a zoom-in. |

 |
| With long exposure, even the normally staid Kevn becomes a blur of motion. |
Outside, I feel a sense of solidarity with Athenians. Much of the South is conservative, but small towns with serious higher learning facilities are real gems. |
Back at The Varsity, I'm struck by the bad parallelism in the prohibitions. Clearly, they help keep prices low by not hiring English majors to write their copy. |
Mmmmm. The gateway to flavor! |
And one final exterior shot. |
