Grateful Dead

raise a glass and have a drink for me, my friend. if you happen to be in Pusan in 36 hours... or Shimonoseki in 12 hours... cheers, mate. love&peace.

Good of you to drop by and let us know how you've been. Stay well. If you happen to be in Moldova next week let's have a beer! When you hear the music ringin' in your soul And you feel in your heart, it grows and grows It came from the backstreet rock and roll And the healing has begun Van Morrison

first: (((((DNC))))) 2nd: congrats to the happy couple. 3rd: >U must patiently peel the tinfoil from many 1948 cigarette packs and roll it in a ball before rubbing on sidewalk. Silver guaranteed. bloody hell, Hunter, now youse let loose the details of my technique of earning a living. shit, the price of them 48' packs just shot up on e-bay-- gosh darn it. 4th: can't say why, can't say how, just know it was there; hoping it will stay. was it this??: "All I know is something like a bird within her sang All I know she sang a little while and then flew on Tell me all that you know I'll show you Snow and rain If you hear that same sweet song again, will you know why? Anyone who sings a tune so sweet is passing by Laugh in the sunshine Sing, cry in the dark Fly through the night Don't cry now Don't you cry Don't you cry any more La da da da Sleep in the stars Don't you cry Dry your eyes on the wind La da da da da da All I know is something like a bird within her sang All I know she sang a little while and then flew on Tell me all that you know I'll show you Snow and rain" had it on the loop, some show I seen from 81, last night, first night in a long while, I fell asleep without Carlo Rossi present, (don't mis-understand, I'm not gay -- not that there's anything wrong with that) woke up with a different feeling inside. optimiCCstic, maybe, realisCCtic for sure. looked up at the ever so familiar ceiling in the little old house... not counting cracks, not trapped by only looking back; just a different feeling inside. my head on straight, my shoulders square, my eyes dry; still carrying the freight -- but without the weight. thanks, folks. thanks ((((DNC))) you been there when I needed you most. you stayed there and was still there when i dropped in again-- ever in need, still unable to express it, and ever so welcomed back like I was never gone. can't say how or why, everyone handles things different, no one better none worse; all doing things in our own way and in our own time. I do appreciate the emails sent, the feelings I feel here on the public space. can't express the gratitude properly. just: thank you, thank you very much in the Elvi tradition is the way to say; all y'all played a part, all y'all who reached out and touched me, cep't of course for BJW who grabbed my ass... LOL ( -; ** all y'all touched my heart with your kindness, it all played a part, in a new start. still heading out, accross a sea or two, got my Old Spice packed and some Bay Rum, too... just know, I love you all, and that, my friends, is what matters most of all. ** LOVE & PEACE, cc.

In my opinion his sound and style fit in best with Panic. But it was definitely cool when he played with the Dead in 03/04. "I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel. Can't win for tryin. Dust off those rusty strings just one more time. Gonna make em shine."

Is one amazing talent that is for sure. I wonder if many Deadheads really got him when he played with the Dead. He sure has been in some amazing bands, ARU, Jazz Is Dead, Allman Brothers, Phil and Friends, the Dead and WSP. I know that when I saw him play with the Dead in 04 he seemed lower in the mix than Warren which was frustrating. Glad he has found his spot with WSP. Happy Birthday Jimmy.

To Jimmy Herring! The baddest guitarist in the land! "I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel. Can't win for tryin. Dust off those rusty strings just one more time. Gonna make em shine."

that's a beautiful, heartfelt statement.....my thoughts and prayers are with you....

I am a 'tuff' guy, but I ain't strong... I truly ain't the only one to have ever lost a loved one, but she was the only one I ever truly loved. love&peace.

((HUG)) glad to cc you stopping by oCCasionally. ********************************** By trying we can easily learn to endure adversity -- another man's I mean. Mark Twain
