"You're a Jedi Knight, Trey."

Just had to read the front-page article in today's Free Press about Ernest "Trey" Anastasio's arraignment for drug possession and shitty driving.

As I stated in an earlier post, I don't enjoy muckraking. Still, I was tickled by the following paragraph:

"You're a Jedi knight, Trey!" one fan yelled in "Star Wars"-style praise as Anastasio climbed into a black van with tinted windows after the hearing. The singer did not react before a driver closed the doors and sped away.

A black van with tinted windows? Maybe he's been extraordinarily rendited and whisked away to one of the CIA's off-the-grid detainment facilities.

But probably not.

No denying the guys technical skills. Just not a fan of that genre. Not so much the band as the freakshow aspect of it. Some of those followers are just from outer space. Find your bliss I guess, not for me though. Hope the guy conguers this demon. We've all got them.

At least I've taught my demons to make me breakfast.

It is true that the man can play the shit out of a guitar. Which is why it's always funny to me how our local paper of record constantly refers to him as the "ex-singer for Phish" in their little exposes. While he did handle a lot of the vocals in the band, it's not exactly what folks think of first.
