We're brewing up another blizzard here in Colorado, but in Atlanta it is 60 degrees. This NYE Special is dedicated to those who have been before and cannot make it to the New Year's festivies this year (like me). For those of you who were planning on it but physically could not leave Denver International Airport, for you I dedicate part 2!
1996 was a memorable year for me and the Everyday Companion. In spring 96 I received my Master's degree and in Winter 1996 we published the first Everyday Companion. The New Year's Eve shows at the Fox Theatre would be the debut of this first hand made, home made volume. I had the good fortune of seeing Panic at a small intimate gathering at the Morton Theater in Athens on December 28th but did not realize the best was yet to come! Lisa and I had good fortune looking down on us, or maybe a guardian angel. Third row in front of Houser for all three nights at the Fox in Atlanta in 1996.
After the shows I wrote on Spreadnet that I thought some part of me 'would always be in row CCC' and I still feel the same way. I met so many great people at these shows, folks who would end up being even better friends. I feel a warm glow sweep over me whenever I remember the fog in Athens on the night of the 28th and when I recall hugging Lisa in the swaying orchestra pit.
Without further ado - New Year's Eve run 1996 brought to you in two parts.

Ted,
this is a smoking fire panicast. it may possibly be my favorite. keep up the good work. I do have one question tho. I'd never gotten to hear the encore from 12/30/96 before and I wondered if that segment listed as 'jam' included the fab fox fess jam, because it sounded very professor longhair to me. I can only assume that it did, but I just wanted confirmation. cheers
YES _ that Jam going into the Good Morn Lil Schoolgirl is the artificially named Fab Fess Jam.
Glad you are enjoying!
