Hi all... Still coming down from the JUKESTOCK high, spent last night at work listening to my new Blood on Blood CDs pretending I was still at JUKESTOCK (thanks Stan!). I want to add my thanks to Debbie, Jane, and Maggie. I loved every minute and it was all so well organized.

We've been following all the incarnations of the Jukes for years and I was always too shy to talk to anyone in the band, so I really appreciated how gracious everyone was about pictures, autographs, etc.

(We're the people that took the old Asbury Park poster off our wall and got it autographed).

I loved meeting so many people--somehow almost every time I said where are you from the person said New Jersey, so I'm looking forward to seeing you all again.

Well, I have to take something back that I got flamed for last year when I said I liked the Hubcaps better than the LaBamba Big Band because they were so much fun to dance to way back when. And I said the same thing to Jane on Saturday. She promised me I wouldn't be disappointed and was she ever right. The Big Band was dynamite! And they rocked as much as the Hubcaps ever did (Sly, I saw you bopping away on the chair--we were the two fools carrying on in the front esp. when they played our request Move On Up). Sorry more people from outside Jersey didn't get to see them, to hear the great Philly soul sound that LaBamba brings to the Jukes. I think that's why I love Southside, the Jukes, and Bruce so much--they created something so unique out of the combination of rock and soul.

Anyway, thanks again to the Jukes, the Jukettes, the great sound guys, and the other 298 wonderful Jukes fans for one of the best weekends of my life.

Ilene
