    She likes whiskey with her water She starts dancing when the stars come out She ain’t your typical preacher’s daughter She’ll leave you dreamin’ yeah there ain’t no doubt There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes She’s a little bit of heaven with a wild side Got a rebel heart a country mile wide There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes A little bit of devil in her angel eyes Saturday night she’s rockin’ out by the bonfire Flirting from that tail gate and crankin’ up the dial Come Sunday mornin’ she’ll be singing with the choir Drivin’ me crazy with that kiss me smile There’s a little bit of devil in those angel eyes She’s a little bit of heaven with a wild side Got a rebel heart a country mile wide There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes And I can’t stop wonderin’ what it would feel like, to hold her all night She’s got that something, that sexy innocence, she must be heaven sent There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes She’s a little bit of heaven with a wild side Got a rebel heart a country mile wide There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes There’s a little bit of devil in those angel eyes She’s a little bit of heaven with a wild side Got a rebel heart a country mile wide There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes There’s a little bit of devil in her In those angel, in those angel eyes

    @ brown eyes
    Well, this one was the natural choice... Hey, where did we go Days when the rains came ? Down in the hollow Playing a new game, Laughing and a-running, hey, hey, Skipping and a-jumping In the misty morning fog with Our, our hearts a-thumping And you, my brown-eyed girl, You, my brown-eyed girl. Whatever happened To Tuesday and so slow Going down to the old mine with a Transistor radio. Standing in the sunlight laughing Hide behind a rainbow's wall, Slipping and a-sliding All along the waterfall With you, my brown-eyed girl, You, my brown-eyed girl. Do you remember when we used to sing Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah Just like that Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah La dee dah. So hard to find my way Now that I'm all on my own. I saw you just the other day, My, how you have grown! Cast my memory back there, Lord, Sometime I'm overcome thinking about Making love in the green grass Behind the stadium With you, my brown-eyed girl, You, my brown-eyed girl. Do you remember when we used to sing Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah Laying in the green grass Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah Dee dah dee dah dee dah dee dah dee dah dee Sha la la la la la la la la la la la la Dee dah la dee dah la dee dah la D-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d...

    and my eye color. "Blue skies smilin' at me Nothin' but blue skies do I see Bluebirds singin' a song Nothin' but bluebirds all day long Never saw the sun shinin' so bright Never saw things goin' so right Noticing the days hurrying by When you're in love, my how they fly Blue days, all of them gone Nothin' but blue skies from now on Blue skies smilin' at me Nothin' but blue skies do I see Never saw the sun shinin' so bright Never saw things goin' so right Noticing the days hurrying by When you're in love, my how they fly Blue days, all of them gone Nothin' but blue skies from now on" [Version 2] I was blue, just as blue as I could be Ev'ry day was a cloudy day for me Then good luck came a-knocking at my door Skies were gray but they're not gray anymore Blue skies Smiling at me Nothing but blue skies Do I see Bluebirds Singing a song Nothing but bluebirds All day long Never saw the sun shining so bright Never saw things going so right Noticing the days hurrying by When you're in love, my how they fly Blue days All of them gone Nothing but blue skies From now on I should care if the wind blows east or west I should fret if the worst looks like the best I should mind if they say it can't be true I should smile, that's exactly what I do

    Boom Shaka Laka......Congratulations Ms. Katniss!!!!!! Happy Friday Kristine..... Now on to pressing matters....it's cuz rainbows are cool, good luck, pots of gold, end of the rain, sunshine, unity, diversity....all in one simple natural light refractory prism..... Somewhere over the rainbow way up high There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far Behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly Birds fly over the rainbow. Why then, oh, why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow why, oh, why can't I?

    Why are there so many songs about rainbows And what's on the other side Rainbows are visions But only illusions And rainbows have nothing to hide So we've been told And some choose to believe it I know they're wrong, wait and see Someday we'll find it The rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers, and me Who said that every wish Would be heard and answered When wished on the morning star Somebody thought of that And someone believed it Look what it's done so far What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing And what do we think we might see Someday we'll find it The rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers, and me All of us under its spell We know that it's probably magic Have you been half asleep And have you heard voices? I've heard them calling my name Is this the sweet sound That called the young sailors? The voice might be one and the same I've heard it too many times to ignore it It's something that I'm supposed to be Some day we'll find it The rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers, and me

    When evening fallsShe'll run to me Like whispered dreams Your eyes can't see Soft and warm She'll touch my face A bed of straw Against the lace We believed we'd catch the rainbow Ride the wind to the sun Sail away on ships of wonder But life's not a wheel With chains made of steel So bless me Come the dawn Come the dawn Come the dawn Come the dawn We believed we'd catch the rainbow Ride the wind to the sun And sail away on ships of wonder But life's not a wheel With chains made of steel So bless me, oh bless me, bless me Come the dawn Come the dawn Come the dawn Come the dawn

    I like this topic, good for a Friday. This one's a two-for... Nights in white satin, Never reaching the end, Letters I've written, Never meaning to send. Beauty I'd always missed With these eyes before, Just what the truth is I can't say anymore. 'Cause I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how, I love you. Gazing at people, Some hand in hand, Just what I'm going thru They can understand. Some try to tell me Thoughts they cannot defend, Just what you want to be You will be in the end, And I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how, I love you. Oh, how, I love you. Nights in white satin, Never reaching the end, Letters I've written, Never meaning to send. Beauty I'd always missed With these eyes before, Just what the truth is I can't say anymore.

Just sold, 3-day obstructed view pass for $900. Not sure if it was a legit ticket or not, but none-the-less prices are still dropping.

Hi you all, I am here, I am reading but every time I go to post I start to ramble, then I wander and then I get distracted so I come back to an hour old post and I never click "post" So this will be short yet hopefully I will actually post it :-) I love the rggrrrr suppers ready stuff, makes me want to go see Steve Hackett from Genesis. Phil is playing with my favorite non-hippie guitarist Bill Frissel on April 22 or something. Bill Frisell is really something he plays big fat melodic notes and makes great use of pauses and space. Check him out, my favorite is "good dog happy man" but his John Lennon tribute is pretty wonderful. If I lived in Cali (hint hint to Klang, I would go to that show at TRX) I nearly went for it myself, the flight was $350, the car rental out of SFO would be brutal, and to visit Marin, or point Reyes or drive through Napa would be wonderful. My patient wife could only make a 3 day trip out of it, so the 10 hours or more in travel each way made the trip seem way to brutal. You do not rush a visit to Marin. Madness and adventure is fine, but it is way more relaxing when you have all the time in the world with no pressure except the next show. Anyhow, I am trying to quit obsessing on this thing and enjoy the spring. Things will most certainly work out. I am lucky that the experience of tour has helped create the courage in me to follow a path that has led me to an opportunity to do at least some of this 50 year celebration. Whatever burdens I have taken on they seem to be out of my way for a stretch of time. woo Hoo for that !!! So with a positive vibe I may try to spend less than 2 hours a day searching for tickets, hoping for news and all of that. See some of you at Dear Jerry.. Yeow!!!! -- Tom

Rggggrrrr and tfonts are good at keeping things on the path. That is good.. I like that path. the thing about 9/8 is it is impossible to march to, and that is what I like about it. Keeps you moving, but not in a very regimented way.. Everyone else excuse the madness, or get used to it.. it is all good madness.

...as Jerry most succinctly put it... Let it be known there is a fountain, That was not made by the hands of men.... We do pause before this meal to give thanks for all that is right with the world, to ask protection to all who feel threatened, to ask for strength for all who feel weak and to ask for success for all searching for tickets or their way... ...above all, we pause to give thanks for our family, friends, and din-din's everywhere.... So Be it, and Let's Eat.

We had a nice home made shrimp salad with avocado, roasted nuts, cucumbers, tomatoes, and who knows what else in there...some blue cheese dressing and a few Club crackers - BINGO !! Still though, no tots...

welcome to our virtual world...we are one in spirit and direction. It's easy to get lost and go astray, we have no shepherds here only guides, and even the guides wander off at times. It will all become clear to us all as we go a little Furthur....cuz we ALL want to get here together, where you ask? Don't, even the most seasoned travelers are unclear....one thing is for sure....if you can see a path, stay as close to it as possible, For aI'm done herding sheep...or kittens or heads, getting too old for that gig, but if you see a buss top, stay near by or remember where it is...cause there's quite a trip to be had.... Hey I think I hear Eric Burdon....spill the wine.... Don't worry there's plenty more where that came from..... Check out the boys singing round the fire..... Off to get some shut eye.....working on the breakfast menu for tomorrow, Recommendations graciously accepted....

Tickets will get cheaper by the dozen, don’t succumb to these scalper scumbags. Stub Hub Quick Analysis Notes I hand wrote down on each date: Mar 7 Mar 31 Friday 1611 1769 Saturday 1578 1786 Sunday 1407 1620 3 Day 829 847 Total 5425 6022 That is 597 more tickets now which is an 11% increase in the past 23 days. I honestly thought the number would have gone down in this time frame when I first wrote down the number back on March 7. I have also seen for example 2x3 day passes directly behind the stage go from over $3000 on 3 occasions several weeks back, to many now selling well below $2000. Lowest sold for $1615. 2 such passes end today in 14 hours from now and both have highest bid less than $1250 right now. Don’t sweat getting tickets, they will be plentiful and much cheaper as time passes. All tickets, not just behind the stage will drop!! Cheers Greg

You know you are getting old when.. Club seats with an obstructed view sound great because they have padded seats ! Behind the stage looks great because it will not be crowded !! The hilton seems like a nice place to end the day, instead of the days of not letting the day end at all. You plan a picnic instead of a party ;-) Enough for me.. time for nap :-) -- Tom
