Grateful Dead

Didn't have the privilege of bein in NY last night, but I just finished listening to Roseland a couple of times, and after reading reviews on Philzone (bashing for the most part) I was pleasantly surprised. That was one hot show! People are bitchin that Bobby flubbed some lyrics and was speaking lyrics instead of singing. Hell he was flubbin lyrics in his prime. I always loved it! Good for a laugh and a memory. The mere fact he can remember most of the words to Desolation Row and She Belongs to Me is a super human feat. Dylan cant remember all the words and he wrote em. True he was changin the phrasing a little much, but like he said during the NYE run, “It's a work in progress” And of course the ever present complaints about Phils vocals. Who cares!! Never was his strong suit. As long as he at 69 years of age can still thump that thing the way he does, I don't care if he sings like William Hung. And they were cappin on his new bass too. Callin it the Wall Mart toy. I admit when I saw it back in December I thought it looked like a Guitar Hero prop, but he dropped a couple of bombs last night that rival his Alembic of the 70s (my fave). And of course talkin bout Bobby's weight. Again, who cares! Does anyone really want to see him in hot pants and a pink Lacrosse polo shirt anymore anyway (I didn't back then). That was midlife crisis at its finest! (LOL) The little teenyboppers in the first couple of rows were lovin it back then. I was happy to see from the balcony on New Years that he has the same bald spot as me. Someone even went as far as to say he thinks he's Jerry now or some such nonsense. Last night was the equivalent of the Valentines Day Warm up they did at the Warfield before they hit the road in 03. I listened to that again recently and it wasn't nearly what I remembered. Kinda like an old Volkswagen that needed some work. Bt the time they got back round to Bay Area it was a classic. Finely tuned and polished. What I heard from last nights shows was a freakin Lamborghini that needs a couple of pounds less air out of the tires so it hugs the road better an maybe tweak the supercharger. This tour is gonna be the sh*t!!!! ♪♪♪ On the road again, show as ya bown ♪♪♪

WOW!! Finally made time to watch the Bob and Phil show, (on The View of all places)! the strangest of places. Was it just me or did the boys seem a little nervous? They're just not used to daytime TV! HA! HA! Overall though outstanding performance, I loved the acoustic version of FOTD. The View girls didn't quite do their research though, how dare Joy Behar get Jerry's exit date wrong!!!! Always knew she was a few shy of a sixpack!!! Nice of the boys to make a public appearance though, what a treat for the non deadheads to get a taste of pure peace, love and music!!! Maybe they will come back for more!!! For the rest of us it was just an appetizer for the main course, I will get my slice at Roseland 5/5 and I can't wait!!! See you all there!!!! Peace!! @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ May the Four Winds Blow You Safely Home... I Miss Jerry

I'm so jealous! Branford's the best.

So Brandford is joining the band 4/28th and 29th in E. Rutherford... wish he'd do the whole tour!

Just wanted to say THANK YOU to the band for a great party last night!

After what I saw at those three shows last night, missing this tour is at your own peril. They were on, and they were hot! Go to as many shows as you can realistically put together, but make sure you get to at least one. Turn on your light, you won't regret it! Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

OOOPS!!I knew my eyesight was getting bad but now I know I need glasses for sure!!! So sorry!!! LOL
