    That Mickey won't sing, that Phil won't sing. I'm softening on Phil though...he didn't sound half bad this summer in Charlotte. Let him pick his spots...

    Actually now that I think about it Mickey did the same thing with TOO in 98. I bet you guys are right. But would Mickey sing Here Comes Sunshine too or is the Fire rap his only singing duties? The voice sounded the same. I am intrigued with this now. I need to get home and listen to that show again!

    It was Mickey. It was when I saw TOO do it in 02. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

    I don't know that is a good question. We were sitting way in the back that night and I just can't picture in my head who was singing plus it was almost 6 years ago. I am going to listen to it again when I get home tonight and see if I can figure it out. "Everybody's braggin' and drinking that wine, I can tell the queen of diamonds by the way she shines.

    It's funny you mention that Red Rocks show, I was there and I have the show on my computer and was listening to it just the other day. Opening with Scarlett was excellent but the Fire was terrible - who was singing that, it had to be Rob Baracco? It sounded like he was trying to rap Fire on the Mnt. YIKES! But then a couple of nights later he sang (I think it was him) Here Comes Sunshine and it was pretty good. I guess the moral is don't rap GD music please.

Don't think this head has the power to resist the sweet temptation of touring again. It's in my blood and veins....I'm gonna get on the bus in Chitown all the way through The Gorge. I can't wait to be twirling with all you headicated people! I'm gonna be dancin' and singin' where the grass is always greener (the Dead shows) and I am considerably excited. Don't even think I'm gonna care if I have all the tickets or not. I've put my finger in the air many times before and I'll tell you that I don't mind hanging out in the drum circles outside in the lot! Love ya all~ ____________________________________________________ Will you come with me? Once in awhile you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right!

Anyone get their mail order from Verizon Center show in April yet? I'm hearing about all these other shows getting their tickets that take place later in the tour and wondering why the earlier show didn't go out first. I guess I'm just starting to get concerned since this is the first show for my son and I wanted to give him the tickets for his birthday which is this 3/6.

I can't believe I lost out on the Garden shows ( so far at least ). I went through ticket master about a minute after it went on sale and it re-directed me to their alter site for 10X face value tickets. A few weeks later there was all kinds of outrage that the same thing happened to the Springsteen shows then all of a sudden all kinds of politicians and government officials get involved and they change their rules / policies ... a lot of good that did me !

The camping is for the night of the show, correct? Trying to figure out what to do the day between Shoreline and the Gorge.

In the process of setting up a little get together, on a farm just outside of the venue (6-10 miles) you could walk. But, it's not going to get out of hand, and only kind people will be let in the "doors"____________________________________________________ Will you come with me?

I will be bringing 2 decorated banners on tour. Both banners are being designed by talented artists. I will be at every show with them(except the second shoreline) and already have plans to meet up with lots of people from this site to get them signed. I am trying to get as many signatures as possible! I will also be taking fun pics with them at scenic locations like haight/ashbury corner... times square and everything in between! If you would like to make arrangements to meet up and sign please email me at jphilipedwards@yahoo.comHope to see you at the show! Peace 42% of all statistics are made up.

Beware of Ticketbastard parking I know they presale parking for all the Denver shows for like $20 or some stupid shit and then when you roll up to the lot it's only $10. I know I'm gonna be on a tight budget this go 'round that's for sure! I am so lookin' forward to seeing all you peeps not to mention the music!!!

I haven't received my 5-4 CHI tic yet -- they said it should be in my mailbox by 2 weeks before the show. M 5-5 tic I pick up there -- I splurged on a High Time VIP package... I'm trying to find my DeadHead friends here in STL who are going up to CHI -- anyone else around here going to the CHI shows?? Hope they keep this up... My first show was in '81 at Assembly Hall in Champaigne, Urbana (U of IL). Second show was at Riverport (yuk...band was good -- just don't care for Riverport or whatever Corporate name it has now) in '94 in STL, MO. Missed two-thirds of the show cause some one not associated with the concert was attempting to suicide from a building in that area. They stopped us on Hwy 70 -- I had to PISS so bad!! Got to my seat at the drum solo!!! Carry a bucket in the car, folks... I see Ratdog and Phil and Friends whenever they come thru StL. Can't wait!! Laura :)

Hey all, this is a little off topic, i was just flippin through channes and seen that Iran now has everything they need to make a atomic bomb, THIS WORRYS ME! This tour should take a short detour after may and spread some love in Iran. If only that country could understand peace. I hope nothing but the best for all of our futures as well as our childrens.GOD BLESS HUMANITY! Phatmoye

You wrote:GDTSTOO "I think it is very cool of them to offer an upgrade and to give you a few days to come up with the cash. What more can you ask for??" My problem is, I mailed MO at 6am on first day of mail order. Got an email from their yahoo group saying all orders would be filled with the exception of MSG. That to me means I had tickets. Wouldn't you think the same? I then get an email from them on Feb 25th w/ subject line saying "4-18-09 upgrade!". I almost didn't read it because I didn't want an upgrade. It looked like a ploy to get rid of the seats none of us could afford..... I had to scramble to a fax machine, just before leaving on a plane to make sure they got it before March 1st. I understand they could have just returned my MO, but I feel taken as do many other people. I think that they only had a handful of tix at the cheaper range and they should have said something sooner. I have spoken to all of my friends who mail ordered on day 1 and they ALL got this same email. I think they sent this email out way too late, they must have known on DAY 1 that they couldn't fill all of the orders, since we all mailed on day 1! At this point, I unfortunately feel that my friends and I have been taken. I think they were stuck with a bunch of higher priced seats, that probably still suck and decided to send this little email out which basically means, buy this or you're screwed.

Seems like more people targeted the cheaper seats than they were expecting. I guess you should have sent in 2 money orders to ensure you got the cheap seats. The times where I see mail order work very well is when all the seats cost the same. It is much more straight forward. My point is that GDTS was trying to make sure you got tickets.

I've had similar problems with GDTSTOO I sent them my credit card information twice because the first didn't go thru and got no confirmation letter or email of any kind. I've been trying impossibly to get a response about whether or not my credit card will be charged and when I can expect this to happen. They just keep saying next week when we process the orders but no date or anything. I've never seen the email you guys above are referring too. ITs been hairy and I need to know if I can pay my rent yet...WTF!
