    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.

    Right On George!
    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.

Back in the day worked 36 hours on 12 hours off month at a time .. ...but the Ramones helped..... Helped me make it through the night.... Thanks for the recipe..... I dig torts, just not the lyric...but it kinda flows......and I miss Lowell too. 20 20 24 hours to go.....I wanna be sedated.....no where to go no way to go home..... I wanna be sedated..... Say hi to sleepy, sneezy, dopey, happy and bashful.....missing a few but doc is in the house...unfortunately but necessarily.... The sun will come out tomorrow.....

Can't speak for Kris, never met the man......but grew up in Queens, had beers with Joey and their second drummer Marky Bell aka Ramone at CBGB after Tommy left....low maintenance....and chill....did not take themselves seriously at all. In my mind there is no cage match Katniss.... All Gods children sing in the choir, some sing low and some sing higher.... Let's all beat on the brat with a baseball bat with Sunday morning coming down..... I miss Joey, Johnny and Tommy beddie bye Boze time here..... It's a Blitzkrieg Bop....

Even if the pretty b*tch does have me dragging flats of plants in & out the damn garage. I'm patient for July; I love Spring with her lilacs, sugar-magnolias, green-grass perfume and a driveway overflowing with the spoils of one's greenhouse hunts. Life's too short to wish it away.

I was told June 10th or thereabouts by GDTSTOO in early March shortly after the TM debacle...they "wanted people to have tickets in hand by mid June" but it's all assumption until one of us gets them

I'd expect them to send out SC tickets first. But then again ticketing hasn't gone exactly as expected so far...

Mayor Klangstone needs to release all his e-mails to the public and give full-disclosure of shady dealings at the Klangstone Foundation. We never have heard anymore about the 75 missing tickets.

As Mayor I have only one request from you. Don't wear the hot pants. They didn't go over so well last time. Mr. Haney's ex got just a little bit too excited and the town meeting REALLY got out of hand as a result. We don't want that again, so please...no hot pants. Another election already???? Man time is accelerating at an alarming rate...

I heard on the news that Mayor Klangstone is supporting legislation making Bumble Bee colored hot pants, tin foil hats, and Sunshine Daydreamer t-shirts the official uniform. He's gone mad.
