Grateful Dead

We've been trying to come up with the new song lyrics ~ We all believe written by Hunter and music by Bobby...Help me out if I'm wrong here, but this is what we've come up with. Big Bad Blues Lyrics~Furthur (Music Bobby...lyrics Hunter) Found this card by the side of the road Jack of Diamonds battered and old Run down rained on, filthy and torn My own face sure as your born. This ain't no story, you never know why Sat down and looked @ jack square in the eyes The rest of the deck no where to be seen Nary an ace, king or queen ~Chorus 1~Big bad blues, keep Rolling along Never found a place where I belong Never been right, but it turned out wrong So hold on tight, when i sing my song Say what you want, brother, say what you will Jack of Diamonds is there for the kill On to the head, sister, one to the heart The one who knows about her, without mercy or art (Really hard) Jack of Diamonds he got only one eye Lost the other in a bedroom fight Full of smoke, Never said goodbye Just stole off in the dark of the night ~Chorus 1~ ~Chorus 2~Ratshack talk about one-eyed Jacks so come on Singing ratshack talk about one-eyed Jacks so come on Singing ratshack talk about one-eyed Jacks so come on Singing ratshack talk about one-eyed Jacks so come on Ratshack talk about one-eyed Jacks and come on ~Chorus 1~ There was a time, brother ought to be glad To find his fate, turned out so bad Theres a time sister I've been paid So dance on his memory, spit on his grave Jack of Diamonds I knew you well Long time ago, too late to tell Reckin' we share that same old fire and hell Just like that, sitting cold, burning cell. ~~Hard One~ ~Chorus 1~ ♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥

A Friend on Philzone wrote this:I'd say yes to the St. Louis vending. The Saint Louis University campus is a wet campus. One of my co-workers attends SLU, and told me you can drink anywhere on campus except in the classroom. The parking situation is spread out around the campus. Here's a link to a map for parking @ SLU: http://www.thechaifetzarena.com/parking_directions ♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥

Ok so last year there was great vending @ alot of the shows. However, none in Chicago. This might change seeing as it's a different venue that has a parking lot. I would suggest that Iowa will be lax, and really a great show. Don't know about St. Louis....but I suggest looking to see what kind of parking they have and when you can park etc. For instance, the Mann Center (Philly) had some great vending this year. Places like Hammerstein (NY City) were nothing at all. I would also factor in the cold, meaning in the midwest in November, you just never know....could be really warm, could be snowing/cold. Four seasons in one day even. Hope that helps. ♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥

127 shows from August 67 to August 95. Only one RatDog since. What is up for vending in the parking lots these days? I have self designed posters, t-shirts, and prayer flags ready to rock the brethren and sistren. Who knows anything about Ames, St. Louis, Cinci, Reading & B'more? My site will be up soon, eyesyondtheveil.com please give advice to a deadicated man. Tom

I wasn't there so I all I have to go by are the tunes as they seemed to roll one into the other all night long. Obviously, as many stated, Red Rocks is at least 1/3 of the experience. That being said, I've listened to all the Furhtur shows posted on Archive and this one had something special about it. I don't want to go through all the obvious cliches so I'll just say there is something that morphed into something worth listening to. As always, the dilemma is where and when they feel like playing the way they did this night. I hope I catch the right one soon, these bones sure need a good work-out, and this head could use a little interplanetary exploration as well. Too all you lucky/smart ones... ~Bound to cover just a little more ground! ~

Anyone heard any rumors or anything about New Years shows? Trying to plan ahead ... Widespread Panic is playing New Years in Denver and tickets go on sale tomorrow ... but if Furthur is playing like in San Francisco, plans would change quickly =) "The dire wolf collects his due while the boys sing round the fire"

Sounds like you folks had some amazing shows at a magnificent venue! Glad you all enjoyed yourselves!Now we're counting down for Worcester on 11/19 :)
