    Hola, Daydreamers!
    Hi everyone, Just checking in, as I have mostly had my head down attending to the mundane for the last few months. However, I got the chance to spin my noggin a bit last week at the Broomfield and Vegas shows (despite a nagging cough). The shows were great--11/28 2nd set, in particular, was very notable. Got to see Gob and (you can call me) James in Vegas so that was a treat. Gob even brought Christmas to the show . . . literally. Hoping to go to Cali at the end of the month but we will see.

    What a lovely post! I need to echo the same...my life has changed for the better since we all started this journey nearly one year ago. We may not see each other but it's sure nice to know we can "talk" and reach out whenever... I think of all of you often and treasure our new cyber-friendships and especially the music that made it all happen.

    @just a little light?...
    Been following this tour since 10/29 Albany, playing has gotten much tighter but is it me or are the set lists getting predictable and stagnant? Same songs being rotated in different order, repeating every 3 shows or so. Now I know Mayer and Oteil are new to this but, well just want to see if anyone else shares the opinion, maybe I just need a break from it.... Contrasting to Phil's recent runs at the Cap...on 11/1 he pulled out day job for the encore....whilst not a barn burner of a classic dead song it did put a smile on my face....if for no other reason, spontaneity. Come to find out that night he replayed the 11/1/85 set list song for song...reminds me of going to see DSO. Anyway to all who are yet to go, enjoy.....these are some high energy shows for sure....and being there is well worth your time....at least once.

Tony, thanks for keeping an eye out for those ticket deals that can help a fellow SDer! It's much appreciated. I PM'd will74, but no dice. He hasn't gotten any other offers, but cheap obstructed view SC tix are not very appealing, even when you sweeten the deal.

So glad there is late-night pie! Just what I wanted after a long day of driving topped off with a little work. And so many kinds! You guys enjoyed most of it but there's just enough in each little tin. YummmzzNightzzzz

Sorry just got back from inspecting the bus..don't worry about the scratches, and yes ma'am you really know how to off-road...but there nothing wrong with kicking up a little mud every now and then..right? Your fashion sense is impeccable...the fuzzy dice and the doggy whose head goes boing boing boing when you hit a bump really make this bus feel like home...oh yeah, that mean people suck bumper sticker rocks... So Geeky....Bus license reinstated.... Baby you can drive my car ummm bus 8 days a week!!!!! Have a fantastic day! One more thing, Lisa is that a real poncho or is that a Sears poncho... Here fido, fido? ...bark bark bark!

.... And how does he know I sleep by a Medicine Jar? COSMIC DEBRIS Enter—the transitive nightfall of diamonds. There are crop circles dancing in a wave on Neptune, with corn rows gleaming from the man on Mars. Tail feathers toss toward a flute near Venus. Fly me like a rainbow to the nearest star. Sirius B has nothing for me. Anunnaki women want to dig my scene. Don’t take me seriously; I’m bluffing like a rookie with a pair of queens. Moon Unit lands with a Zappa on Pluto. Yoda on Saturn plays steel guitar. Moses rides in on a doggone quasar. Captain Trips sleeps by a medicine jar. Sirius B has something for me. Hot Nibiru babes try to make my dream. Don’t greet me furiously. I’ll drop you like a comet heading to the east. Exit—the transitive nightfall of diamonds. Frank Zappa

Still no tickets yet. I offered for a Field GA ticket on ebay at $600 and was countered at $650 but that was just before the PPV was announced yesterday so I'm inclined to turn it down at this point.

And I still can't decide if I'm bringing relish or chopped green onions. I saw the GD play Green Onions. I believe it was Rochester. I never saw them play relish, but I think I saw some in Jerry's beard once. May I'll just bring catsup.

RRRRRRGGGGGRRRRRRRRR, you still driving this thingy? Being that we are an environmentally friendly group, I have to assume the bus is powered by clean burning no emissions natural gas. So, I am here to help (yes, I'm still here for all of those shaking their heads!) BTW, it is not nice to shake us too much, we might get dizzy. So since I just hopped back on the bus (y'all)(again), there's no need to stop for gas.... ...I had a gigantic burrito for lunch (and it's not the veggie type). "HEY, SOMEONE CRACK A WINDOW OPEN MAN!"
