@DireWolf I first became aware of the Rats in 2004 (Wave Your Flag tour). At the time I thought they were kind of goofy, but as the years went on and certain lifestyle changes became necessary for survival, I came to really appreciate their existence. I stopped going to Bill’s house a while ago, but we’re still homies. Three years and then some.
@Hitsuzen - They were a needed escape in the 90’s when I wanted to go to shows, but had some growing up to do… You can stick with things knowing there is a group meeting at set breaks, and you’re getting things squared away. I’m not a friend of Bill’s either, but hanging out with him for a few years was exactly what I needed to get my head straight. The late teen years were a bit rough, but those were a long time ago. :))
Anyway - sorry about the hijack.

@Hitsuzen, @DireWolf I had no interest in the Rats before 95. I finally got sober in 2010 and hooked up with them at some Furthur shows. I stay as far away from 12steps as I can, but I had a “Friend of August W.” sticker on my car until I sold it last year. I was at East Coast shows 84-95. Were we at any of the same shows? Congratulations on 3+ years. I just hit 6 years last week. Now back to snuff talk…

@TerrapinFlyer - 90-95, mostly PA/Ohio. Not near as many, or as far flung as I’d have liked. The early to mid 90’s were a rough time. :))

@DireWolf I actually only saw shows in New England plus Saratoga and NY, NY. Vague road trip memories might include Philadelphia or Harrisburg, but I know I never *got in* to any shows there. I tried to catch the shows I could, but I would have tried a lot harder had I known that it would end when it did.

Just finished a trade with @TerrapinFlyer. Would definitely deal with him again. Good to know that there are still people who are good for their word. I mean, how pitiful do you have to be to rip someone off for a tin of $5 snuff?

@Tobe should be on this list too! Solid trader for sure, and better at spreading American scotches around than American Snuff Co is!

@SHbickel @TerrapinFlyer @snuffsahoy Thanks for the votes of confidence! Much appreciated. I also have to say that snuffsahoy is someone I’d be glad to trade with again. Thanks for the Madras! Off topic, but has anyone heard from @RailroadMills lately? We were supposed to do a trade, but he never responded to my request for a shipping address and I haven’t seen him around here for a while now.
@Tobe My apologies. Crazy month. Finals for college, 3 jobs I’m working, so many bills to pay off, and a couple family emergencies. I will send tomorrow.
Damn it, I can’t edit the list, or I would add @Tobe
I’ll add @RailroadMills to my list of the trustworthy.
