Six years ago today, Vic Chesnutt played my birthday celebration. Chris Sugiuchi and Eric Harris backed him. They set up on the skateboard ramp which used to be in our backyard.
I love so many things- Vic’s guitar, which said “Chesnutt.” The break where he throws his head back and howls in Cobbham Blues. My favorite moment’s last, when he looks toward the camera… it’s right where I was sitting by Ben beneath the walnut. Vic and my eyes met briefly. Even now, watching, I get chills.
