Thread Name: Kendall - update (June 2009)
Subject: RE: Kendall - update (June 2009)
We discussed this at length last year.

There were many people who wanted to perform and not all of them could. Not everybody got to perform in fundraisers and other concerts elsewhere, and Utah was well known to folks in the Albany area who maybe didn't get any other chances to memorialize him. In retrospect, the necessarily hastily organized memorial could have been handled better, but nothing can be done about it now except bitch.

And I'm sorry that not getting priority over others counts for more than Utah's memory or your friends that will be there or the music. I would have liked to have heard Kendall and everybody who wanted to perform, but being pissed over what happened a year ago just makes you and the people who care about you miserable.

I can understand about the mosquitoes though. That's why I'm staying in a hotel this year. First time ever, since 1981.

All of that said, if Kendall's grudgifying and complaining, I figure he's getting back to 'normal' pretty quickly. Do what the doctor says and don't talk!
