Hey everyone, sorry I forgot
Hey everyone, sorry I forgot to update. But the vine was sent out last week or the week before... It's somewhere and on it's way to the rest of you guys.
Amen...I'm with wobbs7.
Anyone have a clue where this vine is at all??? Someone must have it.

All good things in their time
Most vines seem to take at least one week per person sometimes much longer.Some times they go through a person or two before we get an update.
Let's wait for a while and darkstar23 and / or Socrateazer will show up for a status check.
If not I will burn a new set, roll them up tight and drop them... in the mail.
Peace
Rick
thanks rick!
for your reassurances.It's funny, this was 1 of THE
first vines i ever saw and signed up
for on this site, lol. In the meantime
i have had tons of vines come my way
and me pass them along.
i pray this is worth the wait. I am sooo
curious as the quality and what symphonic
dreams will fill my mind and spirit while
i disappear into the music.

Update on the vine people
I've sent it out to Socrateazer and he should have got it by now. I confirm some people's assumptions here that this is truly worth listening to. Just the amount of weirdness you might want on an already weird day.

I know it will be a while, and I have the time to wait, but I am getting laid off from my job for medical reasons and I do not know if I will be able to handle being responsible for the vine, so I need to bow out of this one. I will sign-up again if I am able to pass it along.
Thanks!"
We can only send him good and strong positive vibes, in what ever format your feel is right for you, (Prayers, chants, strong thoughts, incantations, or happy faces). I remember some one once telling me that we are all bozos on this bus and we gotta look out for each other. So lets all look out for Bruce. Good vibes you way.
Now since it has been nearly a month and no movement. I will burn a new set shn/flac and wav. Package then and send them off to the person who thinks they are next in line. So whom ever you are, PM me with your address please.
Peace every one and share the love.

Thanks Rick / Vine Order Corrections
Rick,
I forgot that Socrateazer was going to be out of action for awhile. My prayers go out to him.
Assuming the last set stopped at his door, the remaining order should go as follows.

There was no number 12 previously, so I bumped everyone everyone from 13 through 21 up by one. Also, it looks like the order from 20-22 got screwed up screwed up a bit after joneb joined the vine. I have corrected this order as Tony joined before muffin and muffin joined before joneb.
Prayers and Love...
Well wishes go out to Socrateazer and sorry for confusion on the vine...
Well...
It is the Acid Test Vine...Did anyone expect it to go like clockwork?
Burning as I type but it has been a beautiful Colorado spring weekend, running behind on a few tasks. So if I miss my Monday goal please forgive me, these will be in the mail by Tuesday.
Remember to love each other and the love you give will be returned ten fold.
Peace,
Rick

Oops...
When I made the above post I was reading a few posts back where the order had been screwed up and was now staightened out. That's what I meant when I wrote the header bout "that" being "straightened out".
Also, it seems like a bunch of posts are going up two or three times. I swear I only sent it once...
-Tommo
it's true...
we're having a real epidemic of the multiple post thing. Duly reported to Jonathan. Vine on!
Who has this vine?
just curious...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Moving sucks.
I havn't been able to post in a while but now that I'm moved into the new house and have the internet hooked up I am able to finally deliver the following news...
...the vine is in the mail!
Heads up Gooner, it's on the way.
Thanks for waiting folks and I'm sorry for the hold up. I mailed a stack of vines today and when I got home there was a new stack in my mailbox! Does that happen to anyone else?
Thanks Chris!
I will look for them...mail hasn't come yet today.Can't wait to blow my ears away...
Will let you know when I receive them.

The Vine grows
What a blast it is watching this vine grow. the anticipation, the Mistery, the excitement. I can't wait for the invention of the time machine.

That must have been one hell of a Phil show. :)
I just didn't want the vine to die and when it hit page three I got worried.
