    I think if you start a "blog" it will allow you to post photos to the blog. Not sure yet on dedicated photo page... We're movin from da dus to a "techno-house". Geo, does the livingroom have a fireplace? @rrrgrrr glad you enjoyed the show last night. Props to the boys. When that fat old sun in the sky is falling, Summer evening birds are calling. Summer's thunder time of year, The sound of music in my ears. Distant bells, New mown grass smells so sweet. By the river holding hands, Roll me up and lay me down. And if you sit, Don't make a sound. Pick your feet up off the ground. And if you hear as the warm night falls The silver sound from a time so strange, Sing to me, sing to me. When that fat old sun in the sky is falling, Summer evening birds are calling. Children's laughter in my ears, The last sunlight disappears. And if you sit, Don't make a sound. Pick your feet up off the ground. And if you hear as the warm night falls The silver sound from a time so strange, Sing to me, sing to me. When that fat old sun in the sky is falling, Summer evening birds are calling. Children's laughter in my ears, The last sunlight disappears.

    @Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
    Stones at Ralph Wilson Stadium last night.. Quite entertaining....more like a Broadway show, choreographed.... Can't help but think there was something behind the curtain.... Backing tracks ala ELO or Millie Vanilli The show was too damn perfect.... Back in the 70's they were garage band sloppy, not last night. Interesting this zip code tour set has a running time of 2 hours and 10 minutes.... Every show 2 hours and 10 minutes, not 9 not 11.... but I digress.... Glad I got to see them one more time, Mick for a 71 yo has the body of Twiggy....and a lot of energy... IMO the night belonged to Charley Watts....the man can still bring it.... Now on to other matters.... Some folks trust to reason Others trust to might I don't trust to nothing But I know it come out right Say it once again now Oh I hope you understand When it's done and over Lord, a man is just a man Playing Playing in the band Daybreak Daybreak on the land Some folks look for answers Others look for fights Some folks up in treetops Just look to see the sights I can tell your future Look what's in your hand But I can't stop for nothing I'm just playing in the band Playing Playing in the band Daybreak Daybreak on the land Standing on a tower World at my command You just keep a turning While I'm playing in the band If a man among you Got no sin upon his hand Let him cast a stone at me For playing in the band Playing Playing in the band Daybreak Daybreak on the land Playing Playing in the band Daybreak Daybreak on the land

    @Graceful...
    Once again my friend, a spot-on post. I'm as much to blame as anyone, especially given Geo's generosity to fund the SD.com URL. Maybe it's the navigation, maybe it's the UI, but I could use a little schooling on say, how to get straight to the blogs, post & read, or, how to download & upload shared pics. Anyone care to take a swag at a user manual/SD.com for dummies documentation?

    Our Basic Problem: The tools don't match the function
    The Sunshine Daydreamers are alive and well. The Sunshine Daydreamers remain electrified by what happened in Chicago and want to continue to share the experience. The tools we are using to get that done, however, are showing their weaknesses. The flaws on the email side are apparent: the stream of consciousness, reply all activity can be exhilarating when there is a hot topic, but that is better suited to a chat room function, and so last week we had several more people withdraw from the email list in frustration. The Dead.net forum has obvious shortcomings as well, principally that its only organization is chronological: if there had been a new Pearl of the Day several days ago from Meister Geo, I would only find it by wading back through pages of song lyrics; and then I would only be hoping to find something because there is no possibility to check if there is a new post from a particular individual. It would seem to we need to all take a step forward, as one, to the SunshineDaydreamers.com site that was so generously organized for us. There is a blog section that can have thematic organization (so that the discussion last week about which covers were played would not be spread over four email threads (none of the Subjects of which mentioned playlists nor covers)). I have not seen enough posting to know for sure, but it seems possible that one can approach that forum and check to see who has made a new post, and then make a choice whether to have a look at the 196 posts by one person or the 3 posts from someone else. Yes, there is a password, but we all had passwords on Dead.net where we started out, so that can't really be much of an obstacle. Just sayin people, we need to channel this gusher of love and enthusiasm; got to make sure its built to last.

Hey people hows life going? My names Willy Pete and I'm a pretty young dude (think 18) whose parents might be letting me loose for the first time to drive a few states over to hang out on the "scene". I don't really have buckets of money so buying a legit ticket is out of the question, but I definitely have enough for gas, food, maybe a cheap hotel to shower up or whatever. Anyone have word on where someone could get a shower? Is sleeping in a car safe/dangerous? Where the cheapest hotel might be (willing to drive out of town for this)? How not to get murdered or robbed?I don't really have a clue whats going to happen but I imagine it would involve hanging out, being a parking lot rat outside the show and later/before, at certain meet up spots. A big request my parents made is that I find people and/or events beforehand to meet up with online so i'm not showing up clueless and alone. So yeah, whats the word on how this is going down? I'd love to get to know some real down to earth people and have a good time. I've only spent time in small time local scenes, so this is a HUGE deal for me. Bring me to the circle of life! Love -

David Marc Harris‎Grateful Dead 50th - Face Value Tickets19 hrs · FLAG IT! He just sent me this: YOU HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE FILE. And you might want to let your friends know that all the harassing emails, with low ball offer and statements about my character or what I should or should not do with MY tickets and the prices of MY tickets, are being forwarded to the Attorney Generals Office and placed into a file that is being put together regarding a charge of conspiracy to commit extortion. You see when you and your friends decided to harass sellers into doing something against their will, in order to gain something for yourself is extortion. And since all of you conspirators are in many different states you bought yourself FEDERAL charges.

Like the feds would really give a shit or make a priority about a scalper selling tickets on Craigslist. Laughable. I can't imagine anyone making threats or anything, right? That might be a different story. Just remember that words in this forum are Google searchable, I think.

He made a threat that people who he felt were messing with him about the prices he was selling his tickets for were all being rounded up and reported to the Attorney General. A threat that has absolutely no merit. All he did was bring attention to himself, and this has all backfired on him.

I assure everyone I am not scalping tickets on Craig's List in Miami. I live in Ely, Nevada. I have not been harassed by anyone over it, and I certainly am not threatening anyone with legal repercussions. A scalper in Miami posted this warning. I regret any misunderstanding this post has caused. Still feel it is of interest to some.

Fitting that today, the 150th anniversary of the Pony Express, you use the word Sarsaparilla. Anyone know just what the heck Sarsaparilla is? Other than rrrrrrgrrrrr (btw, we're still awaiting the details of your new cooking show on The Food Channel) anyone ever use that in a sentence? Who talks that way? Sarsaparilla: Sarsaparilla is a soft drink, originally made from the Smilax regelii plant, but now sometimes made with artificial flavors. Sarsaparilla was popular in the United States in the 19th century. What plant? The rrrrrgrrrrr plant?

Boy Rich, you got me there. I had to look that word up. Don't even get me going on the Brown Derby serving Shirley Temples! Beer. I have a not so funny story about me, Southern Comfort, Hamburg Beach, and tickets for the 1987 Summer Tour. There is a happy ending involving kind people and a phone number of the girl I was wooing scribbled on the ticket envelope. Short story, No Whiskey! I should have had a Sasparilla instead.

Rumor has it there's a severe epidemic of caliclarahypersomnia spreading throughout the West coast. I don't normally wish illness upon others; in this case I've got to admit I hope the rumors are true. caliclarahypersomnia:def: Severe and overwhelming need to sleep; inability to wake up; always coincident with GD Santa Clara ticket lottery deadlines. Effects include confusion upon awakening, severe distress over missing lottery deadlines, and a surplus of tickets for those unaffected.
