What does Golden State Warriors Coach Don Nelson do to relieve a little stress after his team losses a big one? Well, on Sunday (Feb. 25), mere hours after the W’s dropped a game to Kobe Bryant’s Los Angeles Lakers at Oracle Arena, Nellie took in Ralph Stanley’s concert at St. John’s Presbyterian Church in Berkeley. Coach Nelson was one of many music lovers that turned out to celebrate Stanley’s 80th birthday (see show review in today’s Bay Area Living). Nellie said he enjoyed Stanley’s concert _ but he really seemed to be having a blast during the opening set by Berkeley’s Laurie Lewis. It was charming to see the coach dance in the back of the church while Lewis performed her upbeat brand of bluegrass. Charming, yes _ but let’s just say that Nelson won’t be a cast member on “Dancing With the Stars'’ anytime soon. No word yet on whether Nelson will adopt Stanley’s classic “O Death'’ as the official theme song for the Warriors’ push for the playoffs.
