The Evening Was Ruined by Forty Minutes of Mountain Jam

The jukebox at the Langhorne Hotel. Filled with classic rock standards. And country.

Three favorites. The same three for a dollar. James Taylor. Fire and Rain. The Band. The Weight. David Bowie. Space Oddity.

A soundtrack for the environment.

The cheap drinks. The low lighting. The clientele.

The locals. The truly local.

An afternoon. An argument. Two men. One sitting. One standing. One eating. One criticizing. Criticizing the carpentry skills. Of the other. Heated words. Threats of violence. One leaves. Going to get his gun. The other? Will be waiting on his porch. Gun in hand.

A cross-section. A sampling. Of the area.

David Bowie - Best of Bowie
. AKA. Used.
