I made a video to sum up every emotion I’m feeling about the end of the Trump era. It was really good. I felt great about myself. It was an amazing cinematic work, and I was sure it would propel me to instant Tik Tok fame. Then I started editing out everything that could cause FBI surveillance or get me put on the no-fly list or banned from social networks.
These are the frames I was left with. ~jg
43 hours to go…
Literally holding my breath…and then I remember I have to BREATHE if I want to actually LIVE in post-Trumpian times.

Late Show with David Letterman
JJ Grey lives in Northern Florida on what used to be his family’s pecan farm — a perfect place for a band like Mofro to practice in solitude. It’s in the Northern Florida/Georgia sweet spot for soul singers, another way it’s ideal for Grey.
He and Mofro have made a name for themselves on the festival and jam-band circuit, and have become a tight band over time. Here, they join us from World Cafe Live to play songs from Ol’ Glory.
This video of Jamie Gray’s original song “90 mph blues” was recorded 7/19/2014 during the 6th annual Artists 4 Life Benefit to support the Children’s Cancer Association’s MusicRx broadcast

Jamie’s set was over an hour long, and featured a 20 minute solo acoustic opening. This song came a couple songs into the electric portion of the show, featuring the 3 piece band: Jamie playing a vintage 70s Ibanez Musician electric guitar, along Chris Schmidt on Drums and Mr. Butch on bass and backing vocals.
“This was our first time really playing this song together…and you can tell. There’s some rough edges…mostly timing stuff. But there’s also a way cool bass solo that we squeezed out of Butch, and a few cool sounds flew out of the old Ibanez as well. She’s been spending way too much time in her case up to now…I think you’ll be seeing more of her soon” ~jg
