    Be our lucky day...... and we bid you goodnight.... But not before knocking boots one last time on ba dus...... I been around the world I've seen a million girls Ain't one of them got What my lady she got She stealin' the spotlight Knocks me of my feet She's enough to start a landslide Just a walkin' down the street Wearin' dresses so tight And lookin' dynamite About to blow me out No doubt about it can't live without it The girls got rhythm (girls got rhythm) The girls got rhythm (girls got rhythm) She got the back seat rhythm (back seat rhythm) The girls got rhythm She's like a lethal brand Too much for any man She gives me first degree She really satisfy me Love me till I'm legless Achin' and sore Enough to stop a freight train Or start the third world war You know I'm losin' sleep But I'm in too deep Like a body needs blood No doubt about it can't live without it The girls got rhythm (girls got rhythm) The girls got rhythm (girls got rhythm) She got the back seat rhythm (back seat rhythm) The girls got rhythm You know she move like sin And when she let me in It's like liquid love No doubt about it can't live without it The girls got rhythm (girls got rhythm) The girls got rhythm (girls got rhythm) She got the back seat rhythm (back seat rhythm) The girls got rhythm You know she really got the rhythm (girls got rhythm) She got the back seat rhythm (back seat rhythm) Rock 'n' roll rhythm (rock 'n' roll rhythm) The girls got rhythm rrrrrgrrrrr has lost his mind.....Sarge has left the building.....

    I am a changed person
    After meeting the SD group in person and experiencing the best concert experience I have ever been to, I have to admit I am the better man for it. So many kind people, so much coolness and kindness and love. I am the better man for it. So many amazing things went down, the vibe was one I have never felt before. So for someone to say that any of these were not Grateful Dead shows, it's all bullshit. I was there, man, it was the dead in just about every aspect, in some ways it was way better than the mid-nineties scene. When I hear about people (like that jackass Terry Boers) bashing on this band or the event in general, I just laugh. Some people just don't get it. I get it, and I got it 10-fold at FTW, a fantastic spectacle it was... I am so blessed to have been part of it...

    Hope everyone has a great weekend! Here in STL ...it looks like rain. Don't ask me What you know is true Don't have to tell you I love your precious heart I I was standing You were there Two worlds collided And they could never tear us apart We could live For a thousand years But if I hurt you I'd make wine from your tears I told you That we could fly 'Cause we all have wings But some of us don't know why I I was standing You were there Two worlds collided And they could never ever tear us apart

    I'm moving through some changes I'll never be the same Something you did touched me There's no one else to blame The love we had has fallen The love we used to share We've given up pretending As if you didn't care Change changing places Root yourself to the ground Capitalize on this good fortune One word can bring you round Changes I look into the mirror I see no happiness All the warmth I gave you Has turned to emptiness The love we had has fallen The love we used to share You've left me here believing In love that wasn't there Change changing places Root yourself to the ground Word to the wise, well you get what's coming One word can bring you round Changes But when I look into your eyes and try to find out how There's no way to save it now and everything I feel Changes Keep looking for Changes Changes For some reason you're questioning why I always believe it gets better One difference between you and I Your heart is inside your head One word from you, one word from me A clear design on your liberty Who could believe when love has gone How we move on like everyone Only such fools Only such jealous hearts Only through love changes come Change changing places Root yourself to the ground Capitalize on this good fortune One word can bring you round Changes One road to loneliness It's always the same One road to happiness It's calling your name Change changing places Changes Root yourself to the ground Capitalize on this good fortune One word can bring you round Changes Change changing places Changes Root yourself to the ground Word to the wise, well you get what's coming One word, one word can bring you round Changes YES!

    found the LP for 25 cents back in 1980..... In my top 5 ever since.....along with Abbey Road, Layla....and two others..... Stan, I think we are Siamese twins separated at birth.... I was standing by the window On a cold and cloudy day When I saw the hearse come rolling To carry my mother away Will the circle be unbroken Bye and bye Lord bye and bye There's a better home a waiting In the sky Lord in the sky I said to the undertaker Undertaker please drive slow For that body you are carrying Lord I hate to see her go Well I followed close behind her Tried to hold up and be brave But I could not hide my sorrow When they laid her in that grave I went back home Lord that home was lonesome Since my mother, she was gone All my brothers and sisters crying What a home so sad and alone

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.

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.
