I’m very sad to report the passing this weekend of our friend David Day. It is no exaggeration to say that David did as much for the Bruuuce.com community as anybody. He was a frequent poster to our message board (actually, the most frequent, by quite some margin!) and arranged...

We’ll jump straight into the headline… here’s your chance to win a signed Jerry Garcia photo! The podcast gives the full details… we’d like you to design a graphic for Bruce’s involvement in the Fare Thee Well shows in July. It can be hand-drawn, or a computer graphic – but...

Si makes a big announcement about a big announcement and goes off on a mighty tangent about e-mails. Some very worthwhile music, though, from Bruce and Béla Fleck. Enjoy it!

A new edition of the Talk of the Town podcast has Si feeling very sorry for himself as he battles an innocuous (and ultimately extremely mild) head cold. Tune in for nearly 45 minutes of music from 2002, news and NEW news on the cover project and Daily Dose Day...
