    Wow Cassaundra - that is the second time this week I've gotten chills/goose bumps from someone telling me about NC... I for sure ned to check it out. Being from Hawaii with part of my heart in British Columbia, my ideal spot is mountains and ocean. Thank you for the inspo! I know you guys. I miss Jerry too.

    This is the great summer for soothing my soul with music...the Chicago shows and the grand adventure getting there has been the focus of my world of late. It is a blessing and I've never been as grateful to be on the bus. I miss Jerry soooo much.

    Sure
    "Hey properlejdi, please take your ball and glove and play elsewhere... Dude, your intentions may have been good, but your recklessness yesterday put multiple SD brothers & sisters here in financial jeopardy. We don't need that kind of help. Prop, last night was your final at-bat dude...there's a ton of other places for you to play on dead.net - just don't play here, please. No need for a reply - peace to you. Out." Sure - I will let buddy know to put them back up - I am out a $200 deposit but sure. I was trying to help and if this is the general consensus, sure. Oh and for the record, I would have been out a ton of money too. Also without anyone else but those involved knowing what happened (I paid $2600 yesterday and everyone was afraid - they didn't pay actual hard money; I did). I would suggest you put yourself in my shoes. Paid $2600 to a guy on this site, who just joined, and the emails disappeared from my inbox (no word of a lie) - they are still gone but subsequent emails are still there. This happened right after one of the individuals questioned whether this whole deal was legit. I went numb and started shaking. Buddy gave the money right back and is willing to give the tickets face to face for a money order - doesn't want to be walking around with a wad of cash - don't blame him. Nor does he want to be walking around with 12 tickets and a sign in SC - again don't blame him. So pass judgement all you want - I was trying to help; AND the one taking all the risk. If you were in my shoes, you would have panicked too. For the guy who decided to send me a PM telling me in more polite terms to f-off, sure man. My recklessness was not trying to put people in financial ruin, but rather help out as many as I could. That included me forgoing shows to get others in...so thanks for the judge, jury and execution all in one shot.

Can we put rgggrrrrr at the wheel of the ship/car/bus/train ? Either one of those vehicles or all of them at once, I think he can handle it. I would feel all at once safer and immensely frightened (how do you say it a scary sort of safe) knowing that he could spin us out of Never Never land and over the rainbow and off to willow farm without missing a beat or without missing, 9, 11, or 7 beats depending. -- Tom

I'm just saying' rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr promised some sort of welcome AFTER I arrived. So I'm late, but at least I made it. No welcome whatsoever. What's a resigned and reinstated mayor supposed to think of this? (Too tedious to go back through previous posts unless someone points me to which page.)

Here is what you do: 1) Go to edit, insert passwod, and check the box "delete picture". Hit save; 2) Log out; leave the page totally, leave dead.net (I know, it hurts, but relax); 3) Log back in, note that there is no picture, you are merely a shadow of your former self; 4) Continue messing around, with no picture, do this for a day or so; 5) Go back to your account, log in and choose new picture. Hit save; That should get you your new/old avatar back. The point is that you have to let dead.net relax a couple of days after making a change, before hitting him with a new change. He is elderly and set in his ways, and he has to get used to the idea you messed with him. It'll be ok, honest. ciao- geofredpoobahmeister

I second that, rrrrrgrrrrr, and want to wish all SD'ers where applicable, a blessed Good Friday, and a joyous Passover or Easter. I'm on business travel next week out the the left coast (SFO) but as always, checking mail. BTW, rrrrrgrrrrr, I believe Totem is out of pocket for a few days on a camping trip. But it is 4/3 today and the first show is 7/3 so that's an easy one for us :-) Cheers everyone !!

Ah well - the rain subdues my appetite anyhow. The Mission offers shelter from the storm though and it's all so beautiful... gosh dang. By the time we have the table all set again, I'm sure my appetite will be raging. Until then... a cozy home it is.

Our beloved Mayor Klangstone has been detected, selected and elected on two occasions. He has also been corrected many times. He is the only mayor we have ever known. The infamous Rob Ford received honorable mention once or twice, but Mayor Klangstone was obviously far more colorful.
