Jason's brother asked me for all the photos I had of Jason. I spent an afternoon going through every photo I have, of everything, and came across a few of Jason that I forgot I had. This is one of those. This pic was taken back in 2001 and it's in front of what used to be called La Luna, on 9th and SE Ash. It's such a fitting photo to find of Jason because he turned me onto music, period. Pearl Jam and Nirvana before they hit it big. Sure, I obviously would have come across them soon enough, but it was Jason who introduced me. And, the point is that La Luna used to be a music venue. We saw Elliott Smith, Blind Melon, Hole, and several other shows there.....and then, I ended up living there for a couple years. Hence the photo. I think this was a day when we were going to make music. I wish it had clicked in such a way that we all wanted to become a band or something....anyway, it's July 21, 2007, and I am posting this photo, and missing Jason tonight....(p.s. we saw pearl jam and nirvana in december of 1991. they both opened for the red hot chili peppers in salem, oregon. pearl jam opened and few had even heard of them.)
