    Think he may be closer to here..... Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there I wish I had you, to talk to If a man ever needed dying he did No one had a right to say what he said about you And it's so cold and lonely here without you Out there the law is coming I've been so tired of running [Chorus] It hurts to see the man that I've become To know I'll never see the morning sunshine on the land I'll never see your smiling face or touch your hand If just once more I could see You, our home and our little baby I hope this letter finds it's way to you Forgive me love for the shame I've put you through and all the tears Hang on love to the memories of those happy years Red lights are flashing around me Good Lord it looks like they found me Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there (This is the police. You are surrounded. Give yourself up)

    @ Hey Kurt
    nice of you to say hello! The weather here in STL is fantastic! Breezy and in the low 80's. Where in the midwest do you hail from? Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy! Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch. Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singin', [CHORUS:] Doo, doo, doo, Lookin' out my back door. There's a giant doing cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels. Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn. A dinosaur Victrola list'ning to Buck Owens. [CHORUS] Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band. Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Doo, doo doo. Wond'rous apparition provided by magician. [CHORUS] Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band. Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Doo, doo doo. Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows. [CHORUS] Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy! Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn. Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows

    @which one's Pink?
    Hey now, Miami and I have been in the back seat of bis dus since Chicago, we kinda like it here.....know the territory, enjoy the company and the laughs.... I agree, the lyric thing is often scrolled but the creative interplay and spontaneity can't be beat.....if the consensus is we get a sub forum, so be it, but she and I might just as well get a room and hop off at the next station.....either way...... ein zwei drei So ya Thought ya Might like to Go to the show. To feel that warm thrill of confusion, That space cadet glow. I've got some bad news for you sunshine, Pink isn't well, he stayed back at the hotel And they sent us along as a surrogate band We're gonna find out where you folks really stand. Are there any queers in the theater tonight? Get them up against the wall! There's one in the spotlight, he don't look right to me, Get him up against the wall! That one looks Jewish! And that one's a coon! Who let all of this riff-raff into the room? There's one smoking a joint, And another with spots! If I had my way, I'd have all of you shot! time for a nap..... move over Sarge......

    I second your notion! Or emotion... Maybe you'll wanna give me kisses sweet But only for one night and no repeat And maybe you'll go away and never call And a taste of honey's worse than none at all Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part I do believe that, that would only break my heart Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me If you got the notion I second that emotion So, if you feel like givin' me A lifetime of devotion I second that emotion Ooh Maybe you think that love would tie you down And you don't have the time to hang around Maybe you think that love was made for fools And so it makes you wise to break the rules Oh little girl In that case I don't want no part I do believe that, that would only break my heart Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me If you got the notion I second that emotion So, if you feel like givin' me A lifetime of devotion I second that emotion Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Oh little girl, In that case I don't want no part I do believe that, that would only break my heart Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me If you got the notion I second that emotion So, if you feel like givin' me A lifetime of devotion I second that emotion Oh, little girl I second that emotion [FADES] - Ooh little girl I second that emotion

    ...this is sounding like the ol song and dance routine...which has always been an intricate part of the Grateful Dead scene. Sometimes I quickly scroll through the lyrics, sometimes I slow down and read them...either way, I'd rather not have to change buses to do that... I vote we keep it all together in one thread. We can sing, talk, dance, and otherwise entertain ourselves very nicely here....now, about that quick brown fox and the lazy dog... geothreedotjournalismrocksmeister

GM I'm not trying for SC tickets as all my eggs are in the Chicago basket but I waited almost 3 months for my answer...happiness to have gotten a response from Elvis that my email had been sent and I didn't get it so yes indeed I'm in. So comparatively 5 days seems great. Good luck and a beautiful day to all.

and the sweet memory of singing harmony to Bob Marley songs with the strolling guitar player at the (nearly deserted) Wyndham Rosehall restaurant. The smile on his face when he realized I knew every word to Redemption Song was like a sunrise. ...we sang every song that driver knew. Back to the salt mines. I can pick & shovel, too.

You should not be fretting ever about not having half and half for your Blue Mountain (or your Kona for that matter). You should be sad that it was likely drip...you want to see what it brings out? Use a vac-pot (syphon) or pour-over...or better yet, an espresso made by an experienced barista...THEN you will never want anything else but Blue Mountain and Reggae I don't leave home without proper coffee gear...that is a must to start any day!

GD 50th update: We are now answering emails for anyone who is still in "limbo". We do not have seat locations at this time. The Fabulous Envelope Art contest winners have selected and notified! It was a difficult task, choosing the finalists, as each and every envelope is an incredible piece of art, many being museum worthy. http://www.gdtstoo.com/GDTSTOOupdate.html

Trying to contain my enthusiasm - a Pending Charge just posted to my credit card from music today. It's different than a posted transaction. Kind of like a hotel pre-authorization.

Mine was a picture of a cow eating grass... "Where's the Grass?" you ask.. "Cow ate it all" I say.. "Where's the cow?" you ask... "He left, no sense hanging around..." Apparently, the GDTStoo folks thought it looked too much like Rgrgrgr's Polar bear/snowstorm envelope. got my pink slip early on...only it was white too. Thank you for your attention. We now return you to your regular scheduled forum posts.

Lots of posts on the big board of peoples CC's being charged for their SC tickets. Any SD'ers have any luck? My ability to get tickets continues to be a whopping 0 %. And I'm not even going to SC - they'll be miracled to any SD'er or head who wants them @ face.

I did not attempt to get tickets to SC because I didn't think I could afford the time away and the $ for going to SC AND FTW, despite my lovely wife's encouragement to go for it (last run and all)...I am now having serious not-a-buyer's remorse for passing on the SC lotto. I still may try to figure out a way to get to SC but need to continue to ruminate on that for a while. so, if anything is still available after my rumination period, I'll just havta look around.
