Just saw SCI for the first time at Red Rocks last weekend, and they completely blew me away. Ive been a long time Phish/Dead fan, but for whatever reason never got into string cheese, probably being originally from the East Coast and not being around where they were playing. Only songs I knew walking in were Howard and Sirens, which they didn’t play either but the jamming blew me away.

I was wondering what are some shows/songs with epic jams I should check out are! Probably one of the best bands I’ve ever seen, along with Phish and Dopapod.

Was doing a group of removals next to each other the other day next to a building and a house service wire. First 3 went well, snapped what I could and rigged off of the tallest one in the area. Was negative rigging the last one, top went well and all that was left was the spar. I was making a deep face cut on the spar (almost certainly too deep) when the wind picked up and I noticed it rolling back towards me and the building beneath, I got a bit spooked and went on the other side to push it over onto the top I just dropped and when I pushed it off it rolled and hit the house service line. Looking back I should have immediately stopped and put the rope on it first thing but I made a split second decision that was the wrong one.

I immediately stopped working and came out of the tree and contacted the power company, the line wasn’t completely detached but the power went out briefly. The lineman came out and reset the line and checked the power to the house to make sure it was functioning appropriately. The homeowner is now saying that there were damages to appliances inside from the power surge when it came back on, even though there weren’t any fuses broken or breakers tripped.

I’m honestly unsure how to proceed forward on this one and can’t find any posts in here about anyone else going through this, but I do know it happens. The company I work for has insurance but I’m not sure if it covers damages beyond putting the line back up. Should I hire an inspector to see if the surge is what caused the issues with the appliances? From what the homeowner had told me in person it was nothing but a surge protector and a box fan, which I offered to pay for on the spot, however my boss is telling me he’s now calling saying a different story and I’m just not sure how to proceed.
