Grateful Dead

Ever heard the term "There is nothing like a Grateful Dead concert"? Now I know this aint THEE Grateful Dead but it definitely will be in the ball park(or football park). So your seats are not very good concert seats but this won't be like other shows you have been to. The whole freaking place will be a FREAK FREELY ZONE. So my advice to you my friend is to not miss these shows and have a real good time. Also these shows will be historic in that they are 2 of the five last shows Bob Mickey Bill and Phil will be on stage together as a unit of the GRATEFUL DEAD playing GRATEFUL DEAD music. Just go and freak freely. What the hell...you've never been and tics are bought. Go.

since gettin the pinky and strikin out at ticketmaster for windy city shows I was resolved to and happy with listening to local bands doing covers ( heard Bonerama cover love light ((Bobby Bland but still)) and George Porter Jr. cover love light and sugaree and Bonerama again at another fest do west la fade away with Billy Iusso sitting in ((awesome cover)). I've no doubt I'll hear much more dead in the next few months just by going to some local shows in south louisiana. All the cool kids are playin dead this year (bonus for me). Now I find myself with tickets to both SC shows. Sat, in sec. 419. Sun in sec. 210 or some shit like that. Without stretching this out I see upwards of two hundred live acts a year (easy to do in new orleans ask anyone). I turn 53 this month never seen the dead, my ole lady turns 58 this month also (same day) ((we'll be at jazz fest celebrating with 80.000 of our closest friends with Tony Bennet and Lady Gaga come on down and pass a good time!)) and has seen the dead upwards of a dozen times up in new england pre '75. We, my ole lady and me are up front and center, shake what your mama gave you attendees at the shows we go to. Yeah we like to dance, noodle or what have you. We for sure noodled to Phish at jazz fest on our birthday last year and we aren't phish heads. But it was still a real good time! Anyhow my dilema is..... I already spent $314 (requested best available, got cheep) for tickets, flights will be +/- $1200.00, hotel +/- $120.00/night then food and drinks (I drink lots, hallilooya!) to be behind the stage with seats we wont use(we've been called assholes by people behind us in these situations before). I'm gonna try ticketmaster to get ga pit if they do a sale for these shows but, just not convinced if I want to go through the hassle with the tickets I have. I know, I know, there is a whole galaxy that wish they had my tickets and, I'm livin a grateful life to have this as a problem ........................... Advice? Thanks, Pete
