    Hey now, a Dead song! Inside you're burnin' I can see clear through Your eyes tell more than you mean them to Lit up and flashin' like the reds and blues Out there on the neon avenue Well I, feel like a stranger (feel like a stranger) Well the music's thunderin', restless and hot You keep firin' me glances across the room And I can't stop wonderin' just what you got Get the feeling I'm going to find out real soon But I feel like a stranger (feel like a stranger) So let's get on with the show, let's go Yes, and the wheels it's smokin 'round midnight You show me a look that says "Let's go" Yes, and it feels about like running a red light Now there ain't no point in looking behind us, no! Still I feel like a stranger (feel like a stranger) You know It's gonna get stranger, let's get on with the show If this were love now how would I know? How would I know? Feel like a stranger Gonna be a long, long, crazy, crazy night Silky, silky, crazy, crazy night

    Once upon a time you dressed so fineThrew the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall' You thought they were all kidding you You used to laugh about Everybody that was hanging out Now you don't talk so loud Now you don't seem so proud About having to be scrounging your next meal How does it feel, how does it feel? To be without a home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ahh you've gone to the finest schools, alright Miss Lonely But you know you only used to get juiced in it Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street And now you're gonna have to get used to it You say you never compromise With the mystery tramp, but now you realize He's not selling any alibis As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes And say do you want to make a deal? How does it feel, how does it feel? To be on your own, with no direction home A complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ah you never turned around to see the frowns On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you You never understood that it ain't no good You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you You used to be so amused At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal How does it feel, how does it feel? To have on your own, with no direction home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ahh princess on a steeple and all the pretty people They're all drinking, thinking that they've got it made Exchanging all precious gifts But you better take your diamond ring, you better pawn it babe You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat Ain't it hard when you discovered that He really wasn't where it's at After he took from you everything he could steal How does it feel, ah how does it feel? To be on your own, with no direction home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone

    Seems I got to have a change of sceneCause every night I have the strangest dreams Imprisoned by the way it used to be Left here on my own or so it seems I got to leave before I start to scream But someone's locked the door and took the key Feelin' alright Not feelin' too good myself Feelin' alright Not feelin' too good myself Boy you sure took me for one big ride Even now I sit and wonder why And when I think of you I start to cry Got to stop belivin' in all your lies Cause I got to much to do before I die Before someone comes along and takes my place With a different name and yes a different face

Your cash ain't nothin' but trash Your cash ain't nothin' but trash Your cash ain't nothin' but trash and he took my watch and I passed out I woke in the arms of a big cop police station next stop the judge swung his fist down plunk plunk twenty dollar fine 'cause you're drunk dig up the dough, and you can go and all I had was a buffalo Your cash ain't nothin' but trash Your cash ain't nothin' but trash Your cash ain't nothin' but trash but I sure better get me some more

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.

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
