    Take a Bus from Chicago to All State Arena to see the Dead
    I'm organizing a bus from The Fifty/50 Restaurant and Bar in Chicago, located in Wicker Park at 2047 West Division, to take Deadheads to see the Dead at The Allstate Arena in Rosemont. The show is May 5th and it starts at 7:30. The bus will leave the bar at 5:30pm and will leave after the concert ends and take people back to The Fifty/50. Beer will be provided on the bus before the show. Tickets are $40 per person and bus capacity is 32, but we will rent an additional bus if necessary. Contact sweiner@thefifty50.com if interested.

    If anyone could help me get
    If anyone could help me get in touch with any of the kind folks mentioned below I would appreciate it gratefully. Lois from Chicago who I traveled with on phil tour and furthur in 2000. The time we spent together was very precious to me, and I treasure it greatly. There is not a day that goes by when I don’t think of you. You are a very special sister, and I love you very much. Please get in touch with me. I Miss you soooo much! Paco Kert from CA, who I last seen somewhere on the west coast, I don't remember where. Paco, I would love to hear from you bro. I saw that sister from Ashland a few times sense then, but she don’t know how to find you. Tristian from CA who I last seen in Eugene in 2001, loves to hang out in Hawaii. Wondering where your at, need to talk with you. Mia Rose who I last seen in 2004 at the Saratoga Springs Show. Mia you have always been so kind to me, you are a dear friend. I hope we can connect again. Sister Faith from CT, its been a while, have not seen you around. Hope all is good, I would love to hear from you. Poet from New Orleans, who I have not seen sense the Flagstaff incident, summer 1993. We left the Tennessee gathering and headed for Vegas, but got separated in flagstaff. I've been looking for you forever, where are you? I have heard you are still around somewhere on the west coast. I have missed you much over the years brother. Karen from the Height who I last seen summer 95. I would love to hear from you again. I’ve been wondering what ever happened to you and I hope all is well. Please get in touch with me. Sunshine Cristy who I last seen in the summer of 95, who I heard was at some time sense then living in Colorado. I miss you sister, please get in touch with me. Leah who I last seen at the Jones Beach show in 2004 and was at that time living in Tucson. Hope all is well with you, get ahold of me, I would love to hear from you. Flower from VA who I last seen after the 2004 Saratoga Springs show at the camp ground. You are the kindest brother in the world man. Your generosity that day really helped me and my family and I have never forgot. I want to see you again. Get in touch with me please. Jamie from VT also last seen after the 2004 Saratoga Springs show at the camp ground. What’s happening? Get ahold of me. Bunny Haze from TN who I haven't seen since the 94 national gathering. Where are you sister? I have missed you much over the years. Allan Thornton from AL who I ran into after several years at the Alpine further show that one year (1998?). We went to your place after you helped us out when we broke down on our way to deercreek. I would love to connect with you again. Beaver Jamie who I last seen at Shoreline in 94 after we hitched up from Venice Beach. It was deathly hot in Vegas that year so we grabbed the first ride that came which took us to Venice. Then when we finally got out of there we hitched a ride with a crazy woman who deliberately took us the wrong direction and would not stop until we got to south central LA, where she forced us to get out. We then walked to Hollywood because no bus would stop for us and we sat by the freeway for three days trying to hitch before panhandling money for a bus ticket to Santa Barbara where we found a ride to shoreline and made it in time for the show. O.T. who I traveled with from Santa Cruz to Tucson for the Gem Shows in like 94 I think. I last saw you at shoreline or calexpo when you were headed out to Hawaii. You taught me alot brother. I would love to see you again. Ken and Molly, we really really need to talk. Ken I last saw you in Michigan years ago and I told you to stop by so we could straighten things out but you never did. Man I love you guys and I hope things are good for you. Please get a hold of me. Adam from Syracuse NY, who I met on tour in 95, and Lisa who was traveling with him. We were together when we heard the news about Jerry. Both of you need to contact me. Please. Freedom Michelle from Syracuse (I Think) NY, who I met in Albany 93, and then you found me again at Nassau. We were supposed to hook up again in 94 but I never saw you. I have always wondered what happened to you. That Albany/Nassau experience was most memorable. I hope to see you again. April from Richmond VA who used to travel with Brent. I would love to hear from you sister, I hope you are well. The Sister from Maine who I met in Vegas in 93. I saw you at a Ratdog show in Portland ME in 98 (I think) and you gave me your number but I lost it, which really bummed me out. I have thought of you many many times over the years and I hope to see you again some day. I will never forget the time we spent together. Any one else not mentioned here, and there are many, names escape me, drop me a line. It is always good to hear from old family and friends. I miss you all so much. Its been almost 14 years since I've seen most of you, longer for some. My love for you has never and will not fade away. I love you all. Peace, Thomas from Michigan pyrorite@gmail.com

At the beginning of 2007 I got a really bad case of food poisoning and ended up being misdiagnosed as a schizophrenic. I was subsequently held in psychiatric facilities for 1.5 months before being released without any explanation as to how they supposed my "mental illness" was "all better". I've spoken with an attorney in my homestate of Pennsylvania (a deadhead) and I've been told that I have a legitimate case, but need to find family to represent me. I'm grateful for any help anyone can offer! Thanks and keep on truckin'! Joseph http://www.photonicbeing.org

I am also looking for heads in my area.. Big Rapids, MI - Sister Earth you are not too far :)I know there must be some in town, though because there is a telephone connection box with like 20 dead stickers on it in town. Would love to know of anyone around who even listens to the dead, let alone really likes them - I seem to be alone in this small town. I know we are everwhere, but is everyone who likes the dead in hiding in this tiny town :) Email me --> esawicki@yahoo.com

It's been awhile since i was in action, but it would be nice to hear from old friends I knew on tour... You see it's a Black Peter issue, as I am battling cancer.. I am about 3 hours from san fran, and I feel like the family can help me heal, and deal with this issue. And new friends are always welcome to chat with me, after all that's what family is all about.

I am looking for Jason Pizzo...he is the person that originally got me into the Dead...I guess I have to be grateful for that any way. We split up very unfriendly like and I just would like to apologize for my part in it....although not for the left hook in P'town...he kinda had that comin'.... I know he is in Vermont, probably Burlington...and I know that he just lost about everything he owned in a fire where he was living, as I saw it in the local paper from up there....but I dont know where he is now... If anyone up there reads this, and knows him, please tell him to e-mail me @ patriot.gyrl65@yahoo.com...... Tell him I said to get himself a can o' peas....

You know who you are! I used to chat with you on 40M and and repeaters up and down the coast. You used to come up to my car because it had call plates and antennas all over it (at the time in 88-90 had a white nissan sentra with my N6PPS plates) and we would talk shows and eqpt. while getting strange. We would also find ourselves in mid chat around the soundboard during shows. We would run into each other from LA shows to SF/Sac shows. I also met a few of you in Phoenix and Vegas before/during/after shows.... Where are you? PM me and we'll sched on HF or IRLP/Echolink Peace DE KJ7XJ CN87tf

Hey Annie! You were an unemployed architect from Connecticut who lived in the city. You made hippie beaded necklaces for a living and volunteered at the Warfield. We met on a plane from SFO --> PHX and rented a car together for the shows in Dec. 1992. You lived in an apartment near Delores Park and your neighbor was in the SF symphony or ballet or something? Remember the "Peace March" against the 1st Iraqi War from Delores Park to City Hall? Remember the morning of the march the Urban Foresters were planting trees along the street on your block? I think their goal was to plant ten thousand trees throughout the city. Remember during the march, the kid who climbed up the light post and yelled at the crowd? "What do we want?!!!" The crowd's response, "TO END THE WAR!" When do we want it?!! "RIGHT NOW!" We danced to the music on the square at City Hall after the march. I think I was the only one wearing slacks and a button-down shirt. Hey Annie! Where are you?

Hey That Nice Hippy Guy! I'm not so far away, and I've been thinking about going to southern Missouri. I live in Little Rock - only four hours to the Missouri line. Ha! Ever been to SchwaggStock? I haven't, but I love The Schwagg, and I've always wanted to go, and it's somewhere in southern Missouri. I'm looking for any kindred spirits in the central Arkansas area. I know there are some deadheads around here somewhere because we have seen one another at Juanita's. I just don't know you! Drop me a line anytime! Peace and Grateful Love Always
