Hey now, I just got done reading the Dear Relix section of the April-May issue, and it seems to me there is a lot of complaining going on. People are upset with the Dead coverage and not enough of other bands. Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn’t this magazine started as a Tape Trader Resource for Deadheads? And another question: You guys do cover other bands such as moe., SCI, Disco Biscuits, etc., etc.?? Just checking. I've noticed the negativity towards surviving members of the Dead, saying what they are doing is the most boring thing that happened in 2000; where is the gossip?? I think the zine is great for the fact that you guys don’t feed the fire of the gossip. Keep up the grate work, u guys r doing fine. And please keep up the Dead coverage.
Be Good,

This is coming to you from quite the free spirited gal floating across the bluegrass. There are a lot of us out there! WEIR EVERYWHERE!! I've toured with Phish since 95', and experienced all that the jamband scene has to offer. From the phishy waters, to the disco crisco biscuits, the eclectic project object, always Claypool and guests, Atlanta's own sector 9, Fat Mama, Ominous Seapods... the list goes on and all I want is moe. moe. moe.
Us gals here who are prominent on the scene will tell you that the female felines are hovering in quick numbers. Perhaps the ears are opening up! So everyone open your eyes... we're around every street corner you may cross, and are spinning and grooving our way to enlightenment. WEIR there, if you only stop to smell the roses. We're blooming our way to a new future of jams.
Thanks for the great camp bisco picture you featured on your subscription postcards (April-May 2001)... that was the good ole house dog party favor dance fest. My face among the crowd is currently behind the 2-year subscription box. I saw this yesterday on 4-20... so thank you Relix for the best 420 treat ever: being in your magazine, especially on such an occasion. Kahoots also to the photographer who took the pic featured in your jamband gals article....good shot!!
Your sister in love and space,

Dear Editor. I wanted to write and praise you for your excellent story about Wailer's guitarist Junior Marvin. As bass player in the roots reggae band Mystic Vibes, I have been profoundly influenced by the Wailers’ music. Just this April we had the pleasure of playing a reggae festival with Junior Marvin. Unfortunately, we were performing at the same time in another room and were unable to see the whole show. One of my bandmates went to his sound check and talked to Junior. He then asked him to come see us perform before he took the stage. Never expecting to see him, he soon entered the room with a friendly smile. He walked right over to us and introduced himself. He was one of the friendliest guys I have ever had the pleasure to talk to. I had already met Aston "Family Man" Barret and Earl Lindo when we performed with The Wailers in ‘98. Meeting Junior was one more dream come true. Even though he was about to take the stage, he still made time to show us support and stayed for a few songs.
Though he may never see this, I want to let him know what that experience meant to me. Thanks for showing us the respect that musicians deserve and want from the people they are most influenced by. There is only one thing better than meeting the people that influenced you to pick up an instrument in the first place: it's being treated as an equal by them. This article was well deserved.
