ARIES(March 21st-April 19th): You may be pulling your hair out the first half of this month, but you have so much of it that you can easily spare a lock or two. You have two inner voices working on you. One is saying, "Go out. See a show! Now. Now! NOW!" while the other voice is saying, "Why don't you just kinda chill and maybe burn some discs at home tonight, bro?" The second voice seems to be a bit stronger, however. If you pace yourself carefully, this may be a good time to get some stuff done like cleaning out your tour-stained car or writing a killer little ditty on the guitar.

TAURUS(April 20th-May 20th): The hectic experiences of last month subside a little this month, peaceful bull. Forget all that juggling of work, school, music, skiing, romance, etc. because this month finds you emerging from the stress into one of the phattest times in your life!! Especially in May!!!!! Someone just may be scoring tickets to Phish at Radio City Music Hall. If your life feels like an especially chaotic jam that seems to be falling apart, try to understand that all the pieces will fall back into place eventually. Life is moving very fast right now and you are growing rapidly. Think of all the new bands you have seen play in the last year alone!

GEMINI(May 21st-June 20th): The planets are clustered in your favor...careers from grilled cheese vendors to closet jam fan system administrators will be booming this month. If you vend grilled cheese, you will think of some slammin new recipe or method that makes your product the best on the lot by far! No matter what kind of business venture you take part in, you will succeed and be showered with praise. With everything in your favor, take a risk this month. Go out on a weeknight and see Sector 9, for instance...you just may love it!

CANCER(June 21st-July 22nd): Feeling a little dissed by the old man or lady? I hear ya. Well ingest a pill of the chill variety because this month those little problems will subside at last. You will be showered with red-eyed glances of love from your partner all month long. You may even get the newest 3 Sets CD from Lauan Records if you've got an especially loving mate!! A nice flower skirt or backless dress may score you some extra physical attention, too, making waves wherever you go. This is a twinkly happy fun ime month for the groovy Cancer.

LEO(July 23rd-August 22nd): The unleashed lion from last month that you hoped to have tamed may be out on the prowl once more. Actually, this month will have some sort of catastrophic changes. Perhaps the college days are ending and you will soon be working all the time and seeing many fewer shows than you like. Maybe you will be evicted and will live in the old VW Bus for awhile. Maybe you will win a million dollars and be able to fly to shows and stay in luxurious hotels from now on. Whatever it is, it's gonna be big. March for the Leo is saving up cash for some shows, maybe finding someone special, and a long strange trip. Emphasis on the strange trip.

VIRGO(August 23rd-September 22nd): The new Minnesota Moon is making you long for someone to share a dance with. If you score now, it'll probably last as long as a high position Maxell cassette tape, at the very least. Don't rush, though...maybe huff with some friends before going into the show. You seem to misinterpret things this month. You are planning to tour without considering all the things you will need to make it a safe and happy endeavor. If you are born near September 7th, the moon is saying things like "Garcia and Hunter," "Anastasio and Marshall," "Weir and Wasserman," or "Lennon and McCartney." No, it's not a bad trip. It's just that a project that involves some sort of collaboration will take place this month!

LIBRA(September 23rd-October 22nd): You are hot. You are sweaty. You just finished funkin' out to a killer set from Galactic. It's set break and you're ordering a refreshing Sierra Nevada. Keep your eyes open, Libra!! This is the month for serious romance and this room positively bubbles with it. When you see the one who is meant for you, you are floored by the electricity. It's just like that first religious jam band experience when you knew you'd always be hooked. This is the kind of of thing you've been hoping for......a shining "Cryptical>Other One" in a set of mediocrity. What a great month for Libras. Gather friends and your new love and celebrate with a killer Frogwings show.

SCORPIO(October 23rd-November 21st): Scorpio, dude. You have got one INTENSE aura. Always working hard to earn money for that new DAT deck or mountain bike. You like to play it cool and act like you don't need your brothers and sisters, but going out solo to see John Scofield is never truly an option for you. You are not the kind who usually writes a review of a show, but would rather keep the experience to yourself. It's understandable after the crazy time you had last year. You seem to be perpetually tired. It's as if you've seen a show every night of the week when you know damn well you've only gone out twice. Being a groove enthusiast is tiring, but someone's gotta do it, Scorpio!

SAGITTARIUS(November 22nd-December 21st): You have a zest for serious adventure this month. You will see a wide array of music including the Disco Biscuits, Wise Monkey Orchestra, Ulu, Jiggle the Handle, moe., Jive Talkin' Robots, and the String Cheese Incident. Aren't you excited? Let me answer that for you. Yes, you are. Add the fact that you will have a very successful career change and I'd say you're having a pretty darn good month. A month almost as blissful as the High Sierra Music Festival weekend.

CAPRICORN(December 22nd-January 19th): The ambitious goat has a drive to succeed. If you're a musician, you are extremely focused on your trade this month. Things like going out for drinks or taking a nice walk don't have the strong pull they usually do because of your strong focus. If you think of seeing live music as your job, you will be a very busy person, indeed! Seeing all these shows makes you feel comfortable with all things in your life, which, in turn, makes you want to spruce up the old crash pad. Maybe hang a nice fresh tie-dyed sheet or add a couple of hemp chairs to the chill room. It's like there are power crystals all around you this month, providing you with a remarkable clarity.

AQUARIUS(January 20th-February 18th): This is the dawning of the....sorry, but I had to do it. Last month was VERY stimulating....it was as if the guitars and drums were clicking together to a peak that was just the way you like it. This month there is a change of venue. Whereas last month the music seemed to jerk and twirl in wild, wonderful, and unexpected directions, this month is about getting your space back together. Regaining some vague sense of control. Your head feels pretty shredded, but you are managing to piece it together. You are being very slow and self-analytical these days, asking yourself "What is it that I love so much about Leftover Salmon? Is it Vince? Jeff?" But then the clouds of uncertainty clear and you know exactly what's going on! Suddenly all the segues and time changes make perfect sense.

PISCES(February 19th-March 20th): On your birthday it was all about a packed house for The Slip. What a fun time you had which sort of summed up the month! This month the planets align in such a way as to give you the power to get things exactly the way you want them. If you want a groovin' Soulive style show, that's who's in town. If you're in the mood for a more intricate night of jamming, Schleigho will surely be playing at your local bar. It's as if Santana's "Everything is Coming Our Way" is blasting from invisible speakers all month long. You see and digest a fresh new variety of improv that invigorates you. It drives you to a creative frenzy that dazzles others like a Jimmy Herring solo. You are able to focus power. You are a master.
