Re: HOMECOMING 2017
I believe he is renewing his Worldwide status next week. He's staying with us one night on the European tour and I've told my missus she must always refer to him as Worldwide.Tequila Cowboy wrote:Not to mention the fact that, much to Bill's chagrin, he is now "Worldwide Bill" always and forever.

Worldwide Bill also gets a heartfelt shoutout from me for helping a brother out when my Airbnb accommodation turned into a dud.

Seem to recall he was at risk of being downgraded to East Coast Bill for some reason during Homecoming last year, but I forget why.

If only he'd been dead, poor little fella. Such a tragedy. I poured one for him anyway.
I keep it all together for the sake of the kids.

Re: HOMECOMING 2017
We've been lucky with AirBnB but there are bound to be bad apples. We really enjoyed our room this year which was a bedroom with a private entrance and access a kitchen, courtyard and a dog, but I think next year we'd like to share a house with some folks.

Re: HOMECOMING 2017
I haven't posted in sixteen eternities but after this weekend I had to pop in and say hi. Jeremy and I had a great time at our second Homecoming (though we hadn't been since 2011!), and it was wonderful to see so many new and familiar faces in line and on the rail. Still trying to get back in the swing of "real life". Anyway here are a few pictures:

Re: HOMECOMING 2017
I swear my favorite part of Homecoming the past few years is the following week when all my debit card payments start posting on my account. It's a good memory jog to all the things I bought, how much I spent at the 40 Watt, & places we ate that I can barely remember ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

Re: HOMECOMING 2017
Went to my Dr. today for antibiotics and steroids for the lung inflammation. I was describing the origin of the Athens Crud to her and told her we were sorta like Deadheads but without all the LSD. She told me she was an EMT before med school, and her first weekend on the job the Dead were in town. She said all they did was administer IV's to kids freaking out on drugs and/or alcohol. ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

Re: HOMECOMING 2017
Great time Saturday night.
Enjoyed meeting some new folks with tons of familiar faces.
My son (he's 16 and this was his second HC) was up in front of Cooley all night and definitely enjoyed himself.
Beth did a great job selling the stickers we had printed up at the last minute and nearly $200 was raised for NUCI's.
Hope to see you guys at some of the Florida shows (maybe Mobile) later this year.

I'm pretty sure Phungi had a concert buddy willing to provide a Happy Ending for nothing more than a smile and a beer.
Now it's dark.

I think my favorite quote from Homecoming (at least that I remember) was:

Re: HOMECOMING 2017
Just today recovering from the flu or the crud or whatever you call it, that set in almost immediately upon my return Sunday night. You name the symptom and I probably had it. This week was as truly bad as homecoming weekend was good. Ugh.
Great to see the shows and hang with y'all in Athens though.
