Still listening to this classic Dead song.  And writing about it on Twitter... It's an MP3 that I ripped from the Mars Hotel album. Which I bought on CD many years ago. I've listened to this track about 1000 times. When I play it it puts a smile on my face. Because Cucamonga is a place with no pride, imho.  It's a joke, kind of like Truckin makes fun of New Orleans, a town that done the Dead wrong, once, a long time ago. Now if it were on vinyl I would have wore it out a long time ago. I'm sure there was a copy of the song on the disk Apple stole from me. There you have it RIAA. You can go after Apple. I'll support you because they stole from both of us. They have no right to listen to PofC. I imagine Steve Jobs and Phil Shindler sitting around smokin a doobie listening to Phil Lesh sing, thinking "Dave has good taste in music." BTW, Cucamonga is a suburb in southern CA. Near Ontario. Probably very non-descript. Might have been interesting 70 years ago. And that's your bedtime story for Saturday, boys and girls. Have a nice day, don't hit your brother (or sister) and be nice to the sitter!
