The Road Is

part six
1

The road is a time fused m80 in the hotel lobby ashtray that explodes and sends cigarette butts and sand everywhere

The road is launching quarter pound rockets from the 6th floor hotel balcony to neighboring balconies

The road is feces filled cups on top of a swinging bathroom door for unsuspecting tourists

The road is 1967

The road is 1968

The road is 1969

The road is not getting paid, a free audition, a lie, a promise.

A gold record on a motel room wall

Unreturned phone calls

A well rehearsed pickup line

A bad trip

Mississippi faces , strange and ugly from too much Owsleys

Toad with Ginger Baker, Take 5 with Joe Morello

An agent with a reputation

Sound waves in a room

The wrong place at the wrong time

The road is arriving at the club to find all of your equipment off the bandstand, on the floor at 5 till nine
