OK so we're a day early, but it's friday and we love an excuse to celebrate!!! The geezers actual birthdate was Oct 9th 1940... he would of been 70 and still ruffling feathers.

This fella wasn't scared to stand for something. In recent times of political and corporate corruption, pity there aren't more like him. RIP. Here's a great acoustic version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFHUxCudN6w&feature=related

The Vertebrae crew had a brilliant night out at the Greek in Berkeley last night (love that place). Jack Johnson is a class act. You could feel the love at the show. From giving profits from his tour to local nonprofits... insisting on delicious locally sourced organic food backstage (with vegan options)... reducing, reusing and recycling throughout... He's doing all the progressive things we'd wish were the norm. Rock n roll, surfer style... Chilled, zero ego/attitude, generous, happy, entertaining. A gent. Cheers for the invite Val!
