    Feel free to pick them up again here. Or report your more surreal episodes of being booted for misbehaving.

    OK, intrepid travelers...
    Jonathan, who is always looking out for us, has found some alternative chatroom software that he thinks might work a bit better. So, in that fine dead.net spirit, we need brave souls to to check it out and see how well it works in real life. If this sounds like you, head over to http://www.dead.net/testchat and chat on!

I wish a very good day to all! I thought I'd start the day off with a little 5-2-70. Pig is so awesome doin' the Man's World, man made the electric light, oh yeah.... I wonder what James Brown thought of the boys covering his song?

hey frankly, i had to search to find any coverage, all small back page articles, except for "WIRED" which had a few stories and video feeds from cell phones at the demostrations, but the torch run was a prank on the masses and took the path less traveled away from news coverage. wonder what kind of deal the chinese govt. made, less lead paint in products made in china?

... the chinese gov't got exactly what they wanted, they got video of smiling people waving flags and no protesters anywhere in sight to mar their video feeds back home. i hope that after the olympic games are over, people won't forget....

On one level, it could reasonably be said that the city did a brilliant job of keeping people from getting hurt, and there's a real sense that that's what cities should do. And on the other hand, yeesh. Wotta mess.

checking in to see what's going on ... wow, up to 13 pages in three days. It has taken me some time to read through all the chatter. There seems to be some chatter bugs (figuratively and literally and no punn intended). miss the real time conversations and can't wait until it's back up. I hope it is spectular, not to raise the expectations of returning to a flawless chat room. everyone have good weekend. sorry Chris, I can only get through about 1/4 of the French, something about the chat being difficult and thanks, otherwise I would respond much better. I have a hard enough time speaking english half the time.

Ton grammair est un petit peut bizarre :-), mais j'aime bien que tu parles francais ici. Je vais jouer aussi, quand tu veut! Also a favor please, from whoever is willing. My best buddy Martin has a birthday today (11 April) for those of us in different time zones. My present to him is a massive mail campaign of Birthday wishes, from common friends, as well as those unknown to him. I wanna slam his mailbox w/kind thoughts. Anyone willing to help me w/this? If so, send me a pm, and I will give you his e mail address. He is no Deadhead, but a super kind man and a great person. ********************************** Don't part with your illusions.

At the risk of sounding like a heretic, I was wondering...If the Store portion of this web site had issues which disrupted the the use of it, would it have taken this long to resolve them? I can't be the only one for whom question this has come to mind. And yes, this is an unfair question for at least two reasons: 1. I don't believe that the Store uses online chat representatives to assist customers, so it's an "apples and oranges" kind of thing. 2. It's very possible that some of the proceeds from the Store are used to subsidize this Chat Room. I may be biting the hand that feed me here, but hey, if my cat can do it.... Any comments?--assuming this even gets posted ;-) Bobbin' and weavin' Steven

I think it's a reasonable question, and I too have some thoughts on what you have asked. This is certainly not heresy, you haven't hammered at the foundation of the band, you've just posed some questions to the folks to whom the band has sold some or all of their merchandising rights. I think that if the revenue stream of Dead.net were affected by the same technical issues as the chat feature, it would have been resolved within hours. And yes, the chat room is subsidized by sales, it's a business thing I guess. Having said that, I also feel that the owners of Dead.net don't actually owe it's users a chat feature. It's like the buffet in the casino, it's just something to attract customers. I hope that your questions and suppositions were not taken by the folks who run this site as hurtful or offensive, I see your remarks as a request. Perhaps I would have said something like : "Yo Deadnet, Let's get it in gear and fix the friggin' chat room fer Chrissakes! What are ya waitin' on? The second coming???" But that may be a bit too heretical, YMMV Now after having said all that stuff, I think I'm gonna go roll up a little something. And I think that I should get back on topic, by posing a question of my own: Wouldn't it have been grate if the GD covered "Twist and Shout"?

breakout was 2/11/69. 3/1/69 is on Fillmore 69 box set and is well just pretty awful, so bad it is almost funny, especially after such an amazing show. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

7 Apr 85, show opener, per deadbase. Personally, I thought the most impressive Beatles cover was Tomorrow Never Knows. Even The Beatles never tried to perform that live. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

One of the most sensational songs every recorded. The Beatles have some much sound that is not really known. Of the begining (big band) Thanks for sharing this.

everyone is a dude, dude. I remember the daze, going shopping in kind convenience stores, and the clerk would smile and say: 'Thanks, dude. Please come again' and I would say: 'don't 'dude me' dude. and he would say: but, you just 'duded me', dude. and I would say: 'don't 'dude me' dude. and he would say: but, you just 'duded me', dude. and I would say: 'don't 'dude me' dude. and he would say: but, you just 'duded me', dude. and it would go on and on... until the grumblers standing in line behind me would start grumbling even louder. fucking grumblers, can neither take the time to 'dude' another dude. so we are ALL dudes, even the gals, who are also dudes. the term 'du-dette' was just never part of my vocabulary. Please take the time to stop and 'dude' a dude. That is what life is all about, dudes. "don't dude me' dude." "but, you just 'duded me', dude." ( -;
