I know it’s wrong to be so far from home
I know it’s wrong to leave you so alone

Everybody holding up OK?

Hey Rich, nice choice but a little too mellow for the end of session, which tends to be a little more hardcore.

If ever there was a song and a performance that captured the freakshow that is the end of session, it would be this one. It too just happens to be called Three Days.
Be warned, while this did air on MTV, it is not, as Speaker Madigan would say, for the faint of heart.

All sessions must come to an end, thank goodness. Like Grandma used to say, good riddance to you, sir.

However, if it ends on time there are no CapFax t-shirts or other merch to add to the memorabilia collection.

True, but I was feeling mellow this morning. Thanks for posting the links.

Everything great in the bullseye, but we are worried who will be providing the grub for “Chicken Man” Sacia to stuff in his mug today.

Apparently he needed more than 30 minutes to load up Saturday ( elapsed between chicken arrival & his rant after the vote).
