    @ Goodnight folks
    It's party time, get your party favors and balloons ready. Party on Wayne, Party on Garth. Have a great birthday! You deserve it! People of the Earth can you hear me? Came a voice from the sky on that magical night And in the colors of a thousand sunsets They traveled through the world on a silvery light The people of the Earth stood waiting Watching as the ships came one by one Setting fire to the sky as they landed Carrying to the world children of the sun Children of the sun All at once came a sound from the inside Then a beam made of light hit the ground Everyone felt the sound of their heartbeat Every man, every woman, every child They passed the limits of imagination Through the doors to a world of another time And on the journey of a thousand lifetimes With the children of the sun, they started to climb Children of the sun, children of the sun No more gravity, nothing holding them down Floating endlessly as their ship leaves the ground Through the walls of time, at the speed of light Flies the crystal ships on their celestial flight (On their celestial flight) Children of the sun, children of the sun Children of the sun Children of the sun, children of the sun Children of the sun, children of the sun Children of the sun, children of the sun Children of the sun, children of the sun Children of the sun, children of the sun Children of the sun, children of the sun

    I really leave us all with these lyrics.... Read them, love them, live them..... One night while sleeping in my bed I had a beautiful dream That all the people of the world got together On the same wavelength And began helping one another Now in this dream universal love was the theme of the day Peace and understanding and it happened this way The sick, the hungry, had smiles on their faces The tired and the homeless had family all around The streets and the cities were all beautiful places And the walls came tumblin' down People of the world all had it together Had it together for the boys and the girls And the children of the world look forward to a future Remember Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock people Time's tickin' away Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock people Time's tickin' away I had a vision of blue skies from sea to shining sea All the trees in the forest stood strong and tall again Everything was clean and pretty and safe for you and me The worst of enemies became the best of friends People of the world all had it together Had it together for the boys and the girls And the children of the world look forward to a future Remember Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock people Time's tickin' away Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock people Time's tickin' away Remember that, remember that Remember that, remember that People of the world all had it together Had it together for the boys and the girls And the children of the world look forward to a future Remember Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock people Time's tickin' away Remeber that Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock people Time's tickin' away Synchronize your watches.....

    You didn't have to love me like you didBut you did, but you did. And I thank you. You didn't have to love me like you did But you did, but you did. And I thank you. But you took your love to someone else I wouldn't know what it meant to be loved to death You made me feel like I've never felt Kisses so good I had to holler for help You didn't have to squeeze it but you did But you did but you did And I thank you. You didn't have to hold it but you did But you did but you did And I thank you. Every day was something new, You put on your bag and your fine to-do You got me trying new things too Just so I can keep up with you. You didn't have to shake it but you did But you did but you did And I thank you. You didn't have to make it like you did but you did but you did And I thank you. All my life I've been shortchanged Without your love baby it's a crying shame But now I know what the fellas talking about Hear me say that they been turned out I want to thank you I want to thank you I want to thank you Yes, I want to thank you No shit, you helped keep the raft afloat....

    Back in the saddle. I feel the same way, just keep rollin on. It's hard to quit, I got a bad habit. I like the way your sparkling earrings lay, Against your skin, it's so brown. And I wanna sleep with you in the desert tonight With a billion stars all around. 'Cause I got a peaceful easy feeling, And I know you won't let me down 'cause I'm already standing on the ground. And I found out a long time ago What a woman can do to your soul. Oh, but she can't take you anyway, You don't already know how to go. And I got a peaceful easy feeling, And I know you won't let me down 'cause I'm already standing on the ground. I get this feeling I may know you as a lover and a friend. But this voice keeps whispering in my other ear, Tells me I may never see you again. 'cause I get a peaceful easy feeling And I know you won't let me down 'cause I'm already standing... I'm already standing... Yes, I'm already standing on the ground Oh, oh

I didn't know about it, but already grabbed a set of U2 tix for that night at the United Center, I believe Chris did as well after I mentioned it on here a while back. I haven't seen them since 87 Joshua Tree tour and I'm curious. On another note, Do you know anything about that trade you saw today on Cash or Trade.....the Chicago for Santa Clara deal? I only ask because an hour before that Tom distributed his extras to people who requested them, of which I was one. Then I know people tried to contact him regarding the trade. I'm just wondering if anything ever became of that, because I'm in the process of booking travel from Pennsylvania to Santa Clara based on the fact that he said I was getting tix from him. I tried to reach out to him with no response as of yet. If you or anyone knows anymore or is in touch with him, can you fill me in,...kinda sweating over it now. Thanks,...hope all is well with everyone,....goodnight

Based on the spreadsheet it looks like you and your friend will be fine. If not, I can get my hands on a pair for SC Saturday for you, beyond the pair I already have on the spreadsheet. Can't help with Sunday, but Saturday is 100%. PM me if you want to do that--$119.50 (P3) seats, although the location is a little unclear due to an error in my confirmation email. Edited: Ha! Never mind, just saw your last post. Congrats.

Hey Bobby check your PM...I have contacted the guy with them - it is out of my hands now...all I can do is hope and smile. I am in at SC so meh I am happy either way. Chris has made my week. I don't know that I wanna flood the dude with requests as I am sure he is going to be flooded with them, but I don't know, if others want to try, it might increase our odds. And if you score from him and have the order filled without us - cool too.

I assume he's in the east (dude with the tix) I am in the west and a night owl (about to start working again - I can work whenever the mood catches me now that classes are done for the semester) so no worries. Get some rest and we will chase him down in the morn. Have a good one...

I really wish I was going to the record store. That Jerry Garcia Green Vinyl is calling my name, but alas I owe I owe, so off to work I go. Good luck with your purchases. If you could score the green vinyl for me, I would be indebted, and obviously pay you as well! Anyway,..Hasta La Vista.

I gotta go to my local record store - my admin assistant owns it with her husband and she tol' me I gots to come. I will be contactable by email - those that have the very first SD list - I am on that. I will have my phone on me so will respond. We have to discuss some ins and outs on the miracle that was sent from on high to us. Simply a case of demand outstripping supply...but if the sandbox is big enough, we can all make castles. More and more people are emailing me to get in with multiple requests - we are already outstripped by vast numbers so we will need to work together to get as many in as possible. Stella has thrown her no views into the pot for each night making it 4 premiums and 1 no view and 7 confirmed (me included) and 2 more wanting - 9 for a total of 15 tickets. If I back out for the sake of my marriage that makes the numbers not much better. Some of you who are dying for multiples, I would kindly ask that you consider trying to get as many different people in as possible - the greater good people. I am now (thanks Jim) 100% sure that all will get who want to. This community is amazing and full of truly kind and wonderful people. Peace y'all

So I have made the purchase from Jim - amazing guy that he is. As I said in the previous post, there are too many people that want tix than what we have. I would like to go the 4th and 5th and want to spread them around as much as I can...that said, can all of you that have previously contacted me, send me your email and we get a group discussion going as to who gets what? I don't want to say no to anyone - sorry new comers - but also want the decisions to be done by the group, not by an individual. Sound fair?

OK so I am in y'all!!! WOOOOOO HOOOO Jim is the man and he made a bunch of people happy - thanks buddy, I would love to meet up in SF and buy you whatever you're drinkin' Sooooo, ok I tried to post before and since it logged me out, it rejected my comments :( Um, I will be a part of this whole SD thing, no t-shirt required, just kindness! I forgot about the coffee thing...may be an issue unless I can take my smaller rig with me (and my wife already wants me dead...) my bigger setup suitable for a coffee shop sort of needs to be plumbed or at least a portable pump for it to pressurize the lines, so may not be the best call...that and that mountie on your horse there, Mr Ed, may have words with me coming back across the border once I am done! Heck, mr Lawman in ND may also have issues with me brining $7k worth of gear in! "seriously officer, it is just to make coffee for a band of misfits in a park before a Dead show..." "step out of the car please, sir..." - rubber glove snaps - As for my time there I am now officially looking for some digs to share for the 4th and 5th...if not that's cool and I will totally stay in the suburbs and train it in nightly for the shows...this is what happens when you are late to the game! If you have digs and you want to split the costs and don't mind another bum sleeping on your couch like in the old days, I will gratefully help out! Peace brothers and sistas!

Dude may be righteous, just everything vanished so I got cold feet. I need a warm fuzzy feeling for something that requires a lot of trust - and this requires A LOT of trust. Vanished emails and no communication scares the poop out of me. Dude may be at work and can't communicate. Like I said - it may not be a scam and if they come up again and you feel so inclined, by all means. The fact he posted them as sold also bodes well for him...who knows I may be the unbelievably stupid one here. I wanted to do right by everyone here but...alas.

I want to be TOTALLY clear - seller may be completely on the up and up. He may be at work and unable to communicate - he was incommunicado last night until late too. It is just weird that only his emails disappeared from my server. It may be totally on my end - and if it is, I want to apologize to Jim for potentially damaging his image on here. I mean no disrespect and I don't want to say that he has scammed me. It is my fault for not getting more info from him - so phone number and location where he is. The GDTS confirmation email he sent was legit and sent right after rrrrrrrrrrgrrrrrrrr's and the number sequence made sense. So no reason NOT to trust him. I may have just crapped the bed on the best offer I will ever get for these tickets. To all I apologize

I don't follow what you mean by "vanished emails" from your MS Outlook Inbox. That would require hacking into your computer. Maybe you accidentally deleted them, have you checked your Deleted Items? Are you saying all emails from him are completely gone from Inbox and Deleted Items?

OK so like I said the dude may have been totally legit - he and I just spoke on the phone and a righteous head. Roller coaster is on the way down - everyone hands up and scream...we are back on. Argh I feel sick to my stomach...
