Yes, welcome to the Forest of Fanario, my little corner of the Grateful Dead and Friends Universe. I'm Phil G. I'll be with you till 2 o'clock today. Got two separate hours of different things and it's all good music because that's what we do here at KBOO and we're going to have a year and drive coming up but if you want to pre-empt the drive you can help

by going to KBOO.fm and hitting the donate button or texting KBOO to 44321 either way we appreciate it. Keep this continuing experiment rolling. As you all know Donna Jean Godcho passed away this month and my co-hosts have been playing selections featuring her voice. I will be no different the first hour will feature Donna Jean Godcho. The second hour we've got the second part of an interview I did with Don Wars where he talks about Bobby Weir and the Wolf Brothers and how dead and company came to be. So you'll enjoy all of that I'm sure you will because there's going to be great music as well. I do want to mention that thanks to former Grateful Dead and Friends host Dwayne Gosler I have received the 2008 interview we did in the KBOO studios with Donna Jean and I will be putting that up on the website sometime soon. In the meantime here's Don

a Jean Godcho singing with zero in 2006 turn it up. Just a song I've come over I wonder what fate will be must have been a bad thing to get shot down for

I know how they do it. Or if they burn it down. Get out, get out. Missed a lot. I know you're the one who gave you your orders, someone from the sky. I heard a voice inside my hand in the desert wind. So dry I heard a voice tell

me. But there is a voice I always believe. They say a lot of trouble coming but you don't have to come to

me. Don't you turn around. Don't look after you. Now it's not your business how it's done. You're lucky to get through. Now you're a good upstanding man a credit to the fly but if you don't

face straight you could not take the shot. I know you're a good upstanding man a credit to the fly but if you don't face you could not take the shot.

I know you're a good upstanding man a credit to the fly but if you don't face Blue the city off the map left nothing they would find. The wife of lies got to stone because she looks behind her because she look behind her
