    Ok Miami good afternoon here in da Buff... Greg....Rumor has it opener on 7/3 is gonna be Beiber and da boys covering Rock You Like A Hurricaine.... Phil on lead vocals.... Going out to the Sunshine Daydreamers as we slowly approach the horizon, a beautiful sunset and a pot of gold at the end of that rainbow.... Somewhere over the rainbow Way up high And the dreams that you dreamed of Once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow Blue birds fly And the dreams that you dreamed of Dreams really do come true ooh oh Someday I'll wish upon a star Wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where trouble melts like lemon drops High above the chimney top That's where you'll find me Oh, somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly And the dream that you dare to, Oh why, oh why can't I? Well I see trees of green and red roses too, I'll watch them bloom for me and you And I think to myself What a wonderful world Well I see skies of blue And I see clouds of white And the brightness of day I like the dark And I think to myself What a wonderful world The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky Are also on the faces of people passing by I see friends shaking hands Singing, "How do you do?" They're really singing, "I...I love you." I hear babies cry and I watch them grow, They'll learn much more than we'll know And I think to myself What a wonderful world world Someday I'll wish upon a star, Wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where trouble melts like lemon drops High above the chimney top That's where you'll find me Oh, somewhere over the rainbow way up high And the dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I? I? Sarge pass me the Kleenex....

    Where do I Post?
    Good morning, I'm looking for information on where to post an invitation. There are probably more than a few people rolling down the road right now looking for a place to pitch a tent, park a bus, an RV or a car while en route to Chicago. We are on a patch of ground in Nor'western Illinois and have some room if folks need a place to stop for a few or overnight. The gate is open; we don't want anything in return (AKA - free). If there are any takers, we will rent a porta-pot. All we ask is that anyone stopping/staying treat the place with respect. Please let me know when you have a chance, Thanks, J and T

    @The evening shift, and all that Jazz
    So there we was, minding our own respective businesses, when something special happened. Maybe it was a song, perhaps a smile, perchance a dream; something to stir the soul. Looking up at the crisp clear night sky, with all the stars a twinkling, we know all is well. For beneath us ba dus rumbles its rhythmic beat, and the tires hum that familiar tune as we roll down that ribbon so nicely lit up in the moonlight. We know we are in good hands, resting and relaxing while we review the past 48 hours. A grateful dus briver personally takes our evening requests, and KDED seems spot on. Even Puppers is sprawled out without a care in the world. You see, that first special song, smile or dream has been nurtured, watered and well tended. New life has sprung from historic moments relived and retold as we join together in excited whisper, bursts of laughter, transitioning into robust song. A magical mystery tour is not a mystery any longer, but indeed it stays magical. Smiles abound. Tis Ladies night at the moonlight lounge. In honor of your joy, love, excitement and purpose; to acknowledge the past days, weeks and months sharing in that zest for making this corner of the world more like home, we lift our glasses and salute you! Sometimes the lights all shining on you, and ladies, it is our pleasure to let it shine on you during this whee part of our journey. As we rumble along, singing our songs, let's support each other and give thanks for friends and family. For those who joined us for a time but left too early, we honor you. For those who are just hopping on, we extend a hand. For the vet who has joined us, we share a seat. For the sick or those called away for other pressing matters, we'll lend an ear and listen for you. What awaits us at dawn, when the night sky softens and the day begins to break...what wonders are before us. Wait...shhhhh....do you hear it..do you feel it...do you see it...please do share it...and thankee kindly, one and all. geoperchancetodreammeister

Top of the afternoon peeps (literally). Nothin' like some in-air GoGo wifi.....(no, rrrrrgrrrrr, not that kind of Go Go....). Okay..... so no one laugh, but I just saw this Hall and Oates concert from Dublin from last summer here on the flight. Holy shit - frickin' amazing and brought back great, great memories of their catalog of hits. Highly recommend it. Could never figure out how they were friends of the Dead but I do remember them opening up for them on the 9th of 9 straight nights at MSG in when was that?? '89? '91? Anyways, here's to hoping all the beautiful Sunshine Daydreamer's had a wonderful start to the week. Cheers !!

I had one of of those moments too. I never paid much attention to Hall & Oates other then when they were on the radio where ever I happened to be. Then I stumbled upon a show called "Live From Daryl's House" with guest Joe Walsh. Wow!!! Joe Walsh is always great, but I saw a side to Daryl Hall I never new existed. He was amazing. Same thing when he had Billy Gibbons and Todd Rungren as guests. This is a series he has been doing for seven years or so. They take place in a private studio he has put together. Best place to begin looking into this is Wikipedia.

There's plenty of T's around. I don't mind my musical commentary being mocked cause I got big big trouble on the way. The mayor will be getting home from work soon and he's gonna find out I ratted him out on his tickets. I should have thought that one through. Nowhere to run nowhere to hide. What's for dinner?

We don't need no stinking badgers.... Brah... It's all good, I'm rooting for Duke, because for all crazy ass reasons....when my daughter was accepted there 7 years ago, I refused for her to attend, cuz to me $60,000+/ year x 4 years was too much for me to handle and I didn't want her to be in that much debt....for undergrad.... Looking back it was the right choice....for us....at least.... She forgave me and we are gonna watch together, she's in town for Easter week.... Godspeed to Wisconsin...beating Caliperi was sweet.... Enjoy my friend...bet you $20.... Nah....on second thought.... I wonder who the Mayor is rooting for?

All 3-day passes are half price (half of face value). But due to the recently increased taxes and SD forum maintenance fees the sales tax for each day's ticket will be 1000%. $300 3-day pass goes for $150 plus $1050 in taxes. 1 day only you can have nose bleed no view tickets for all 3 days at only 1200 per day! Today only...

Glad to see my Blue Devil's won last night. Graduated in 83 and was there when they hired Coack K. We were not very good back then for a couple of years. Got to see Michael Jordan play in college. 3rd Dead Concert was 4/2/82 at Cameron Indoor. Volunteered to be an usher so got to see the show for free. After the first set was able to go down front and be done working. Still have my t-shirt I got that night. I believe that was the show that Jerry and Bob switched sides? Steve

Hard fought victory. Great game. I've always been a fan of Coach K. Like I said about the Badger last night; it don't look like me. Not mine. But I did enjoy riding with him this season. Alas...the $20...it's been in the cave so damn long it's deflated. Doesn't buy what it used to.
