    say hi to all the Rex peeps! The reception at the Warfield on Friday, to say nothing of the show (yes, I must spend more time listening to the CRB, I think. And John K with Melvin and the girls was to die for...), were very sweet. (http://www.rexfoundation.org/events/high-steppin-into-town/_

    Is getting me paranoid. Phil was signing directly at me during 1/2 Step. The first man takes the sails; the third the planks and rails. Yeah, you know I'm talking about. That poor guy is really out there. Anyway...... Chicago Bound! Anyone going to Greensky/Keller/Stringdusters?

    Always best to pull the bill on your tinfoil hat a bit down, to cover the glare on the morning sun... Heading eastward into the sunrise can be a bitch... What? You're all sleeping in the back and it doesn't matter? Something about tears and Brokedown Palace and staying up half the night? rjjrjjrrr turned the wheel over to Sgt Puppers, he is a bit directionally challenged, but does pretty good, considering he doesn't have that opposable thumb thing going on... Never fear, ba dus knows it's way to Chitown, all you gotta do is climb a mountain, coast down, go that way, climb another one, coast down, and you're on the fruited plane with amber waves of grain on one side and purple mountains in the back. Watch out for that tree, Puppers, and no, you can't stop the bus and "claim" it as your territory....plenty of time for that in Chitown. What? Someone ate all the oreos AND drank all the milk? Dang. Musta been a powerful set of munchies. Well, we done shared all of mine...so how 'bout you sir, or you ma'am...got any oreos? GOT MILK?

    I want what you're having.... On my way to get drilled philled n billed.... Have some coffee Creme tangerine and montelimat A ginger sling with a pineapple heart A coffee dessert, yes, you know it's good news But you'll have to have them all pulled out After the Savoy truffle Cool cherry cream and a nice apple tart I feel your taste all the time we're apart Coconut fudge really blows down those blues But you'll have to have them all pulled out After the Savoy truffle You might not feel it now But when the pain cuts through You're going to know and how The sweat is going to fill your head When it becomes too much You're going to shout aloud But you'll have to have them all pulled out After the Savoy truffle. You know that what you eat you are But what is sweet now, turns so sour We all know Ob-La-Di-Bla-Da But can you show me, where you are? Creme tangerine and montelimat A ginger sling with a pineapple heart A coffee dessert--yes you know its good news But you'll have to have them all pulled out After the Savoy truffle Yes you'll have to have them all pulled out After the Savoy truffle

You sir are risking the mighty rath of Klang. He rules from an awe inspiring rig, much like the Wizard of Oz's. Only his uses the avatar of an evil clown. Maybe you haven't seen it. Those of us who have know how terrifying it is. You have been forewarned. Just remember Mayor Klangstone has ordered that no one look behind the curtain.

Klang is Rgggrrr's alter-ego. Beans spilled. Or rumor spread? Again, beware the meds and round-number hoarders. I got no dime (or your $20 bill) but I've got some time to hear your story.

I never saw that one coming. But now that you mention it. It does seem suspicious that you never see them post a comment at the same time. I feel that this warrants furthur investigation.

Hi there and welcome to sunshiney daydreamer land! Well I don't have the official packet info in front of me at the moment, but the general gist is: *keep it friendly and positive *keep discussions generally pertaining to this group and the social gatherings being planned for Chicago, additional local happenings, the pick-a-nick and other group meetings * local info for help and aid to us all * use the other main thread for ticket discussions or save it for PMs * use the other main thread for complaints about the ticket situation if you must * be kind, rewind keep peace in your heart and get on the bus! rgergelis is driving the wheels off this crazy thing and we need enough bodies aboard to keep us balanced on the road to Chi-town. All aboard!! P.S. Mayor in name and satirical statute only. Here to help out if and when I can, just like any ordinary good citizen of dreamer-land.

From John Cash and the Carter family..... Oh well I'm tired and so weary but I must go along Till the Lord comes and calls, calls me away Well the mornings so bright and the land is the light And the night, night is as black as the sea There will be peace in the valley for me someday There will be peace in the valley for me, Oh Lord I pray There will no sadness, no sorrow, no trouble, trouble I see There will be peace in the valley for me. Well the bear will be gentle and the wolf will be tame And the lion shall lay down by the lamb and the beasts from the wild shall be led by a child And I'll be changed from this creature that I am There will be peace in the valley for me someday There will be peace in the valley for me, Oh Lord I pray There will no sadness, no sorrow, no trouble, trouble I see There will be peace in the valley for me.
