    Casey Jones..
    Had a weird, crazy flash today, listening to the GOGD on the way to work... a show from November 1970 ... The Train gets faster as they jam out towards the end.I picture Casey pushing that train as hard as it will go. It would be cool to hear Furthur 'make the train come off the tracks' one good time..(All Good!) ... and instead of closing the song the old fashion way, keep speeding it up and up, and then tear into some ear piercing feed back...and have Electric CHaos to tell everyone that the Train did go off the tracks one time..

    My boss Tom has extreme highs & lows ( over the last 4 yrs I have seen quite a spectrum) So, about a month or so ago, he gets RAD seats at a Clapton show. I said in passing that I thought he'd feel some major positive vibes flowing from the stage & be a better person for it.. . Days later I told him If I could work to some music I'd be wayyy more productive. Not withstanding his mind boggling " NO MUSIC IN THE BUIDLING" rule he offered to pay for my headphones :)!! OH HAPPY DAY! I can't describe how much BETTER that feels!! ..... Last week he scheduled a seminar in Kansas City MO ( which I can't even think of without hearing ~ " Kansas City, here I come "). We live in South Carolina.... Come to find out, he just made it to the Sprint Center with Leanne Womack, Reba, & George Strait. Comes back with a tshirt & MAD praises for the fiddle/ mandolin backing up ol' George. Well Now.. I see this as my shoe in. Don't want to push the GOGD on anyone but HELLS BELLS! I mention Garcia/Grisman & play Shady Grove & The Hobo Song for him. I mean ( I MEAN), I pressed play & walked by to my office. Gotta give him some personal space to take it all in :) Right before quittin time, he hands me a Kris Kristofferson CD for the ride home ~~~ I always thought Johnny Cash wrote Sunday Mornin Coming Down. Had no idea. Leads up to This day ~ Tomorrow is his birthday & I am gifting him O&ITW, Grateful Dawg, The Pizza Tapes, & Garcia/ Kahn Oregon State Prison ****** REALLY REALLY DIG THAT SHOW******* &&&& have my toes crossed that he'll ease on into a Vine from HERE! Last but NOT least ~ 66 Primal Gems. PIGPEN is the MAN! ENCORE :) I TRULY hope he bends his ear to listen & really hear the tunes, or atleast passes it on. Thanks for letting me ramble on PEACE PROUD TO BE A GROUP W BENCHER

    Apparently the Rev Kev feels the same way - he'll be returning to Canada after something like 10yrs abroad... we'll be lucky to have him back on home soil. The pace'll be different, I wager =)

    nice one, badger =) cc- with regard to Tokyo, I agree completely, Tokyo makes me feel claustrophobic and minuscule at the same time. Have you been to Kyoto, Nikko, or Kamakura? If not, I highly recommend making the trip while you're in the area. The temples in Kamakura and Kyoto are *stunning*, and the national park surrounding Nikko is gorgeous as well.

Did anyone else read that worldwide use of Spam has dropped 70% in recent months? Any ideas why? The experts...the Spam experts..are dumbfounded! And by use, I mean consumption. It might still be used for, um, other things.

Good luck to the Green Bay Packers!!! Too bad we have to listen to FOX TV announcers...The best thing about the game is usually the commercials, bought at the record high amount of $3 mil for a 30 second spot. Plenty of activities in Dallas TX today as The Pittsburgh Steelers go for a 7th football trophy. Speaking of FOX, did you catch the Bill O'Reilly grilling of President Obama in the White House?

Question: Does your DVD of Alpine suck? I "upgraded" my VHS to DVD some years ago. I don't remember my VHS being so crummy although it was nothing to cheer about. My DVD appears legit with the Monterey art that looks like others I have. The sound is good, but the images is blurry and the colors harsh. I realize it's not Hi Def but the quality of the picture is poor like it was shot on an 8mm camera. What's been your experience with this Vid??? Flame please...

Really? Any opinions out there on the prospects of hearing Bob perform an entire show naked, so to speak?

We were witness to a most inspiring and magical event last night in Madison, Wisconsin. Jackson Browne performed a solo acoustic set. One man, one voice and 20 acoustic guitars. this was not an ordinary event, with the songs you heard on the radio back in the day....but rather a momentous occasion of support for the things that matter most in the lives of everyman. He has a vision and a spirit that flows with most all of us, and the perseverance to travel across this great land and further the education of our society, through music, words...and the spirit behind which you cannot help but be drawn in, to a better life, on a better planet, in a better space. My hats off, and my immense respect, Jackson, for you vision, your communication, and most of all your tenaciousness, in making this a better planet for all of us.

A message from Neil Young..."2012 will that record companies release High Resolution Audio. This is huge for our industry. Since the advent of the CD, listeners have been deprived of the full experience of listening. The spirituality and soul of music is truly found when the sounds engulfs you, and that is just what 2012 will bring. It is a physical thing, a relief that you feel when artists and producers did when they created it in the studio. The sound engulfs you and your senses open up allowing you to truly feel the deep emotion of the music of some of our finest artists. From Frank Sinatra to the Black Keys, the feeling is there. This what Record companies were born to deliver and in 2012 they will." Inspiration. A wonderful thing.

So 19 of the many Islamofascists who want nothing more than to murder innocent Americans once again attacked the WTC on 9/11/01, and succeeded in killing thousands of our fellow citizens...Luckily your humble writer, altho it was a close call, was not a victim for a second time... Then, a few years later when I was posting on the DNC forum, and praising "W" for his efforts to keep us safe from those sick savages, my posts prompted numerous online attacks by DNC neo-libs ...They clearly didn't like "W", America, or me!!! It was at that time that I read many idiotic comments, including "W" was a complete failure based on the fact that the unemployment rate was hovering at around 5%, and he was sending troops into Iraq because the people there had "brown skin", etc.... Now, about six years later, unemployment is at about 9+%, and since coming into office Barry Obama is sending drones into the area, and has sent tens of thousands of troops into the Middle East to kill "brown skin people" in even more countries, including Libya, Yemen, etc.... SURPRISE!! SURPRISE!!! Not a peep from the "Deadheads For Obama", et al... Anyone care to take a wild guess as to the reason(s) why ?? If it wasn't so sick, it would be funny...

OR -- You lost somebody in the Gulf whom you're still grieving for. As somebody who has carefully followed your posts on dead.net, I'd say the last one seems like a cry for professional help. You're entited to your own opinions, but not your own facts. Try this fact:: Under "no controls' Dubya, Goldman got to Sec. Treas. Paulsen to bail out AIG who immediately made Goldman liquid on ALL it's hedges. Then Congress poured it on with unprecedented bailouts and now, 2 years later, we aren't in a great depression because of Obama (though we have cash-rich corps with human rights unwilling to invest in this country) -- despite of everything. You can't blame Obama unless you're willing to blot out 8 years of the Dubya, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice regime. I think you've broken with reality and need help. I urge you to seek it as soon as possible. If you are a vet, get help. If you're in a family situation with dysfunctional vet., get help!

Not quite, but it looks like Widespread Panic will be tomorrow, never seen them before so that should be good. The Primus show was hot and so was Mumford & Sons (another first).

WS Panic and Bruce Hornsby, I really enjoyed it, Panic is playing in Eugene in 3 weeks,hmm. I also enjoyed Mavis Staples and thought Neon Trees sure put on a show. Warren Haynes Band was awesome and he has a great new CD out. Sure am glad I got this computer. I want more !

I'm guessing it's in the state of Washington (Rainier?); I know it's not on the east coast of the USA, nor in West Virginia, which does have a few big mountains.
