Grateful Dead

that awest's latest attempts to provoke arguments have been unpublished, and that a similar fate will befall such posts by anyone else. Thank you.

now someones pissed off Tigerlily!!!??? i'm outta here, ya'll ain't very jerryish!

I would say that no one is supporting you awest27 you may as well give up. I know I know I was supposed to follow my own advice and ignore him :-) "Everybody's braggin' and drinking that wine, I can tell the queen of diamonds by the way she shines. Come to daddy on an inside straight, well I've got no chance of losing this time"

I just don't want to see all the name calling and hostility. I hope no one has misinterpreted my posts, I realize this is a discussion board where people share thoughts and opinions..it just seemed to get really down and dirty there for a while - ya know? I can handle arguing points back and fourth, but it just kind of crossed the line a couple times - at least in my opinion. But hopefully we're heading down a better, more amicable path now.

I can't wait to get some shopping in @ Shakedown Street..I always enjoy the prefunk fair atmosphere that you can only get at a dead show.. I will definately be sporting the kilt

i was just listening to it at work so I thought I'd share

Unfortunately there are a few people in here who like to antagonize others just to start a confrontation. That is true on any site that let's you post your thoughts. I am guilty of lashing out at those people too because you get tired of hearing their crap but the most effective thing we all can do is just ignore them. They are looking for a response out of us - a confrontation. "Everybody's braggin' and drinking that wine, I can tell the queen of diamonds by the way she shines.

Thanks for putting that beautiful groove in my head! Give me something to sing to myself here at work!!!

Yeah, the name-calling and drama is something we could all do without. That said, it is equally ridiculous for people to be calling for "an end to the negativity" just because MANY people are upset with the ticket snafus and the inflated price for seeing the band. This is a DISCUSSION page, not an "everything is rosy in our little bubble" page. From my perspctive, people are justifiably pissed and others are justifiably happy. Period. For me, I think the prices are too high to justify the "event", given the uneven performances in the past and the fact the Warren Haynes (wonderful player and person that he is) is simply not the greatest fit for this band, (Don't get me started on why Hornsby or Larry or Jackie or even Kimock(despite his and Phil's "history" weren't considered)... But what the hell, it's their job to pick the players, do their best and for those of us willing to shell out a hundred bucks a piece, to enjoy and judge whether it was worth it. It would have to be one of the best dead shows I have seen in 37 years of being a fan to justify the cost of the flight, ticket, lodging, etc, so I am simply going to take a pass on this one. And then hope Phil and Friends make a run through at some point, or even Dark Star---That, to me, comes closer to the bone of what Jerry's spirit brought to the band--- But that's just me. Everyone going, enjoy the show! Everyone not going, oh well, maybe next time.
