    My uncle met these guys at Jazz Fest. He was working a bar that had closed down for the night. All that was left was the Blues Travelers. He asked them to sign his ball cap. He said next thing he knew they were pulling up a chair, ordered a couple more pitchers of beer, and insisted he join them. He claimed they were some of the most down to earth, kind, fun loving group of guys you would ever meet. My uncle has since passed. A great man in his own right. Memories eternal uncle Jerry. We sure do miss you.

      Your uncle Jerry was so much cooler than my uncle Jerry; he’s still alive but doesn’t have any rock tales like that. Those kinds of tales will always live on.

      They were my first concert, I was about 7 years old it was 1993 , I remember going to Jones Beach Theatre long island . I went with my mother she was a big music person, I remember people walking around with tie dye, and they were selling super big top hats like the cat in the hat, and blues traveler showed up late because they were on the ocean watching the coast guard save a sea turtle that was stuck. There were dozens of groups there, but I remember mostly Blues Traveler and the counting crows. It was a lalapalooza all day concert, one of the best memories of my early childhood!

    This song, man. This song is such a happy place for me. I dont think its tied to any specific memory, but every. single. time i hear it it puts a big smile on my face. I sing along with a dumb grin on my face i just cant control lol. Thank you John and the band for making this song and providing such a pure, happy, and just all around GOOD song, vibe, and memory for me and countless others.
    Oh, and who's here for 2024??? God bless the 90s!!

    One of the best songwriters to ever live, John Popper. Definitely a harmonica genius. 😊 the lyrics to this song are intensely profound under the simplicity of it. A lot of their songs are like this, the kind that engage your brain to get the full meaning. I can relate to this song so much! I love these guys, wish we were seeing new stuff as well, but you know, I’m grateful they gave us this much👍
