Grateful Dead

Let's see how much I can absorb as I go over the dus records... i am on the mobile device, not my computer, but there are some SCRAPBOOK worthy items here. All the packing lists!! I will try to go back over later tonight when I've got the laptop. This needs an official list I think. Xo

I don't care what the Canuck puts in her bottles, if we got Reese's Oreos we need MILK! Goddamned ape ate all my Oreos! I miss Clyde.....and I miss Ruth Gordon...

Stella where will you find the time? Are we planning games for after the photo? I'd really like to!!! Or are people planning on only buzzing by for a spell? We should do a spelling bee! Pin the tail on the hippy, musical chairs, pass the dutchie... (Ha ha my spell check on dutchie came up as Ritchie)... We could play that too. K. Doc? You'll get passed around on the left hand side.

hello darkness my old friend.....I've come to talk with you again.... ain't goin' there cuz the batteries in my flashlight are dying slow... But...If you ever feel lonesome And you're down in San Antone Beg, steal, or borrow Two nickels or a dime to call me on the phone I'll meet you at Alamo Mission Where we can say our prayers The Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mother will heal us As we kneel there ....in the moonlight, midnight, moonlight..... Hey Stella...I sang you a song this morning....

'Bout Willis? Ok, count doc in for the games...who else is game for hanging around after photo? After midnight we gonna shake our Tambourines.

Dressed myself in greenI went down to the sea Try to see what's going down Maybe read between the lines... Yes I'm just passin' thru this time I won't be stayin' here long Just like an outlaw in a Willie Nelson song So I guess I'll be rollin' on Bye-bye to you Honey I can't stay You know I'm just passin' thru Well, it's hard to figure out just why That I've got to be free Stayin' in just one place Don't appeal to me So I guess I'll be rollin' on Bye-bye to you Sorry I can't stay You know I'm just passin' thru Oh the games people play now Every night and every day now Never meaning what they say now Never saying what they mean

YOU GOTTA LIKE THAT LIGHTNING BOLT! Woohooo

If we in fact being hosted at Tony's hotel for a tie one o, . I hereby propose all SDers to a tie one on challenge- if you recall geo sent in a how- to video on how to transform a neck tie into a bow tie- start practicing...

That was, if you missed it. She was kind this month. So... Mahalo nui loa Uncle RRRGRRR. Your singing voice is fantastic! Thank you :) Tami it sounds like you are inspired and fired about the games? I'll ask around, but in the meantime maybe run with what you have? I'm thinking only one or two. We might not get to them. We might be too busy snacking and running around talking to each other FACE TO FACE. I'm going to be silly with it. Oooh. What about SD trivia. "Which SDer when to ___ ___ State and graduated ___ ___ laude?" etc. Oof. That would take some information gathering... time. *** So. I am looking for a lower tier GDTSTOO ticket. One for any or all nights. I love my no-view seats. It gets me in the building, and I'll always remember the moment Ticketmaster said "You're going to the Grateful Dead!" Because of that moment I TREASURE my sweet sweet no-view seats. I have abstained from selling EVEN ONE of my tickets for over face value, much less for several hundred dollars as someone close to me suggested I do in March (they don't know). That way I would have been able to afford plane tickets or acomodations (sp). Rent, etc. "I can't do that" I said. Still. I would part with and sell at face value one of my tickets that I am grateful for, if I could get a golden ticket for one night or two at one of the lower prices. That would be alright! Just. You know. Putting it out there. I did finally send good 'ol E an email. Throw my hat in the ring. It's a little late but you never know. You just never can tell... Alright. Back to selling stuff on ebay! Love Stella. ps. How the frack do you spell "accomodations"??

.....round the old oak tree....thanks for the inspiration Tami.... Morning all... Thursday here.... Grab your coffee... How bout them Hawks... Sorry Totes, but someone had to win that game.... follow the buzzing bee... all together now.... Here's a little song you can all join in It's very simple and I hope it's new Make your own words up if you want to Any old words that you think will do Sunshine Daydreamers no ka oi.....

has any daydreamer received and email or there tickets yet . Maybe I missed it in a post . I have asked several of the people I know in Ma. who got gdts tickets and no one has gotten any news as of last night. We think they might be going out in batches such as our notification of hitting lotto.Yes I so want to hold my tickets in hand just like a kid at Christmas

King of the Road.... Not here in NY....but told the merry mailman what to look for....he's a head as well, so he has a vested interest.... I agree with the batch idea....I keep looking at my 2/26 confirmation email...sick thing is wondering if it's an April Fools joke... but I know it's real....fingers and legs crossed here in da Buff.... guess I had too much coffee or beginnings of a prostate problem... getting old sucks... Have a great day....

3 weeks, 2 days, 10 hours until the winds blow into Santa Clara! 4 weeks, 1 day, 8 hours until Chicago. That's right, one lunar month until the winds blow in CHI Town! Patch those Sails and Shine those Rails!

Don't worry, be happy. I think the GDTS folks are working hard and getting out "batches" of emails and tickets. I'm thinking everyone will hear something over the next week or 2 rather than a single broadcast announcement (until all is said and done of course). Not that my word is any consolation and won't keep you from stalking your mailman everyday.

2 M's in accommodations. :-) I was always a good speller.

Games people play you take it or you leave it things that they say, aren't right If I promised you the moon and the stars would you believe me? Games people play in the middle of the night Although I am not big on party games, I have no where else to be than at the pic-a-nic until we head over to Soldier, so whatever we do to pass the time and have fun, I'm all for it. Should we wear all nametags? Seems kinda cheesy but how else are we gonna know who's who? A stand-up and speak session? Hi, my name is Mike....I am a deadhead and I miss Jerry...

But I believe certain executive members of our Pic-A-Nic committee may, and I stress, "may," already be working on such a name tag idea. I can't confirm nor can I deny; we'll just have to wait and see :-)

More USPS goodies arriving....FYI: cumberlandcase: #365 received my beautiful Chicago tickets priority mail this morning. Added bonus, I know the girl who drew Friday's ticket tbonebozzone MO # was 320

.....pulling the dus over at the next rest stop....time to stretch, relieve ourselves, have a cold one....water, milk...uh huh, sure it is.... ice coffee, cerveza....etc....this space is getting hot and not in a good way....whilst you romp and frolic in the fields of opportunity I will be seeking a fresh shot of refrigerant for our dus's AC....as lately it's been blowing mostly hot air...and when we began this grand crusade it was cool as a cucumber.... Rest stop up ahead....smoke 'em if you got 'em.... Oh I see we crossed the Alabama state line.... Oh mama, could this really be the end? To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again..... and Mr. Mayor....I know.... ( and a little advise....no more spell check...trust me, it's evidence based) Oh, Texas medicine and railroad gin....maybe I'll mix them?

Dus briver, hour we theeer wet?

LMFAO.... Totes that's why I suggested you use the facilities.... still got that pile of undergarments in the back.... don't remember who was drivin' that night....but it was memorable... Love that two stepping son of a Bee! Just got done talking with Gomer Pyle, the attendant at yonder fill station....says refrigerant's gonna be a couple of days, and he found a bent Johnson rod under the hood as well...gonna be awhile....I'll let you know when it's safe to board.....til then, talk amongst yourselves...

Pass the milk. And I tried to post a link here yesterday from Amazon for delivery of those elusive special edition Reese's Oreos. Even suggested we could get drone delivery to Buckingham Fountain. But the link to Amazon apparently breaks the laws of the Dead.net boards...It just keeps getting tougher to keep it light... Ho Gawks!

just got done listening to Chick Corea with Airto and Flora Purim.... Gonna pipe that through our sound system..... Sorry about the previous posts.... But... I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress..... It's all talk...cheap talk....

For a moment thought I might need to call 911 in Buff...

Shhhhh...be vewy, very quiet......I'm hunting wabbits.... Elmer + Donna = Huhuhuhuhuhuhuooooohhhhhyeahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I was wondering yesterday, after listening to Zep, what Donna would sound like with Robert Plant...talk about aural candy (spelled carefully).

He and Alison Krauss duet nicely together....adding Donna will make even me feel like a stranger.... So let's get on with the show.....

Only offered spelling assistance because it was requested, but point well-taken. How could I turn down StellaMoon? (I tried to resist but it was futile)

http://www.jambands.com/news/2015/06/04/sirius-xm-to-air-chicago-fare-t… Channel 23 coming up huge people!

I defer to your vast expertise and etiquette in dealings with all things Lunar.... Have a good evening, kind sir..... Keep up the Mayoring.... And to SXM.....very nice gesture for the subscribing Deadhead nation.... Thanks Swannie....

received my tickets in Dallas-Ft Worth area today...woo hoo. i think donna and plant would be...interesting...midpoint between complete cacophony and sublime harmony. actually, i REALLY enjoy Plant's Band of Joy and prefer it to the Plant/Krauss collaboration, which is also really good. BoJ's pounding kettle drums, mandolin and buddy miller's guitar are sweet together.

Morning! Thanks for the opportunity to stretch - it'll do well for the cat nap I'm about to take zzzz.zz.
