    I haven't heard anything yet about a broadcast in one of the parks, but it is a possible an announcement could be coming. There are several parties going on that viewing the show around town such as like with Leftover Salmon who is also playing sets. I don't think we've made an official list yet, but someone is sure to have a spreadsheet for that soon! See you on Northerly Island! Here are the best bets so far: City Winery and Park West will be live streaming the shows. Fare Thee Well Live Stream from Soldier Field City Winery Grateful Dead Streaming Party Hosted By Leftover Salmon Park West Hear it live from the Field Museum's terrace: Everything Is Dead 50th Anniversary Party The Field Museum

    welcome aboard, and you too Gomez, Morticia, and Pugsley. and yes this is the infamous Sunshine DayDreamer bus..... and we are on the road...seemingly to nowhere right about now, see I've temporarily lost perspective and direction...strange forces from the Stinson Beach area have my compass all asunder.... but I digress.... Coffee is on and it's spectacular...steak and eggs as well.... Cousin It seems to be enjoying them...oh I'm sorry I didn't recognize you Klangstone, love your extensions...but get the hair out of your eyes.... Got my humping pants out...ready for the mines yet again.... Sarge has his trusty cell phone and his eye on the mail box.... Wishing, and a hopin' and a prayin' here....in da Buff.... as I told Mr. Mayor back in March...where there's life there's hope... things always work out, rarely how we anticipate...but always for the best.... Have a safe and pleasant day all! (thanks geoalwaysamanofreasonandperspectivemeister...) Hey you Uncle Fester, get that lightbulb outta there....no don't stick it back in your mouth...wipe it off first!

    Hi guys, new here to dead.net but longtime head. My hubby and I are brining our Sirius Boombox to Chicago for the weekend of the 4th and luckily they will be broadcasting the show...thank you Sirius! We will be camping at a state park near the city and travelling in to town to be near the scene. Hopefully there is someplace to gather for those of us who can't be inside the show. We'll be blastin tunes wherever we find ourselves. Peace to U!

    Repetition works for me
    I'm not the dullest tool in the shed, but sometimes the light of awareness takes a minute to seep in... thank you for the repeat-information Totes. I would have been sad to miss it. Overwhelmed by emails every day of my life, the last three months included. Trying not to spend all my time looking at screens but right now it's a loosing battle - laptop (pretty little thing), phone, terminals at work where I order everyone's tacos - Rrgrr forgot to tell you I brought some home yesterday. They'll be a little soggy in the fridge by now so how about Sargeant (sp) gets a treat and I'll bring fresh ones home tonight. Seared ahi with maui onions? Fried Alaskan cod? We just switched to organic chicken so all the mom's and dad's are going to be stoked. Sub tofu if you're feeling the veg way!! I'm ready for a change. I'm intending that my time in Chi may be leveraged into a new chapter... we shall see. I am overeducated and really greedy: I want more. I'm really grateful for the friends I'm making here. Lovelove

Back in the 80's, my dad took the entire video of my brother's wedding with the camera upside down. The last thing on the recording is his grumbly baritone growling ... "godammit, you mean I've had this fucking thing..." One of my life's true precious memories. Man oh man, I miss that man.

Youngster! I think my first LP was Out of the Blue by ELO, or was it Capt Fantastic by Elton? Probably Elton John, I think it came out in '73-74 (I was 9-10 yrs old).

R.I.P. B.B. King! I was lucky to get to see him about 10 years ago with Buddy Guy warming up. BB sat the whole time while he played but put on a great show. A true blues legend...

And goodnight, dear B.B. Thank you for the music. It's nice to think of everyone communing together in person and remotely over the Dear Jerry fest while I was at work doing the deal. Sorry for the loss of the Blues great. It's just that Wheel. So. Here's to all our safe passage to Chicago and beyond. It will be great while it lasts <3 Boo I hope to see some of those monkeys in June. Hope they have a place to play! Sounds like there's nothing but nothing near SC. Big sigh. :) I have a gray-eyed cat snuggled up to me as I say goodnight with my brown eyes. Another two hours before rrgrr and Tonytone are up but... I think we've had enough of a day, que no? It's been a big full day. Night dreamerz... Sweetest of dreamzzz.
