    I have an idea!
    Let's buy the cow palace, convert it to open air living quarters, with a huge living room and open lofts, buy back the wall of sound, hire bear as equipment and spiritual guru, hire mr. norman as sound guru, dan, betty,bob and bill as recording and mixing advisors, mr. gans as setlist director,eileen as archivist, as this will be historic, blair and david as researchers, mr. biffle for backdrops, buy back the archives from rhino, fill in the gaps from the viners, have gratefulmom be the room mom, iknowurider to be the hostess, grdaed73 be the party advisor, jonathon the tech guru, and marye the master of ceremonies.Then lets just say this is our wepod......... opps.. I forgot catering. peace and dead dreams,pk

    AND
    AND: it will be solar powered! OK, cool, add the video, too. this is why I opened up the product development to the 'committee' here, I can't think up, (let alone remember) everything. I'm barely rebemering my own blood type these days, as it tends to be Johnny Red, 80 proof. RH factor NEGATIVE. I do think, if I consider this from a very prudent business point of view, that the sub-woofer, multi-speaker, thing must be an option. I learned on the road, people do not want a 'pack' of stickers, they usually want to choose one at a time. I went to the WharfRaton School of Business in Hell's Kitchen, youngest graduate at age 11. I learned during my internship. People want options. oh, scratch resistant surface, a vairety of colours, tie-dye of various shapes and forms, various dead logos and trademarks, available. or, as I would choose for my Deadhead Shuffle: basic black, the only tiny little trademark for me, would be THIS: peace.

    shall we call this, uhhh, (cough, cough) a pipe dream?? ( -; I certainly hope not. OK, if you boys tell me this is technically possible, well get up on that wagon! we're going up north to put the word in the streets. I know a guy, who knows a guy, who knows a guy who is a close personal friend of Steve Jobs' personal trainer. ( -; I got the name, and watch for the upcoming manufacture and release of...................... big drum roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! **** The Deadhead Shuffle (loud cheers and roars of applause echo through the land) ( -; now who will deal with Rhino to get them to release the rights to all of the stuff in the vault? peace.

    50 TB hard drives?
    Probably not by Christmas 2008, but I'd be surprised if you didn't see them by Christmas 2010. Plenty of 1 TB drives on the market already. Now if Intel can just get Tesla's electrical power broadcasting thing actually functioning, bye bye to the battery toting mule as well...

    don't know who's backs that strong
    ya know CCj, this can be done! the capacity amount isn't a problem, the shows plus all video(u forgot that,ccj) can be done( even throw on kesey's bus TRIP) and the headphones are a cinch, docking and shuffle already done, hey how about the worlds smallest external LOUD speakers with subwoofer that fit in the back where the battery was! ...because the battery pack would need a mule to carry it around for you : ) and u know what happens if the horse won't pull....

    What I really want
    what I really want is a 50,000 GB hard drive type i-pod type cigarrette pack sized contraption that plays the highest quality flac/shn (or whatever is the best) digital music, that includes EVERY SINGLE SECOND of every show, every acid test, every last tiny bit of tape of the good o'l grateful dead, EVER recorded, it must have docking capability, AND I want it to have noise reduction head phones. ( -; AND I want it by Christmas! ok, just to keep everybody happy, my dream i-pod can have a shuffle feature for the people who like compliations. hows about that? ( -; peace. another quick pop in here.

    thank you, thank you very much. just a quick pop in, mom since I got some decently speeded inet access for a few days. won't be "back" til fall. the real credit for the love post goes to the songwriters and the folks who run the lyric website, http://www3.clearlight.com/~acsa/intro.htm as far as I can tell, this is the only time the grateful dead sang the word "mom" in the Merle Haggard cover: "Dear old daddy, rest his soul, left my mom a heavy load She tried so very hard to fill his shoes Working hours without rest, wanted me to have the best She tried to raise me right but I refused" love and peace.

Hal R The river so white, the mountain so red...happy rafting on the great Colorado. There's an Arapahoe Indian saying..."you'll always come back" so no need to be sad once you've returned :) Johnman DEFINITELY sending galaxies of healing light and warmth to you...and to Johnman and CCS geez I know you hate the sesame oil idea (Jman) BUT organic sesame oil -cosmetic/not to eat doesn't really smell/can get at a Whole Foods (bronze cap). It really helps sore shoulders, joints.rub in affected area w/ knuckles towards the heart.Camphor, menthol etc STUFF can be too heating/organic sesame oil is neutral and calming/honest ;) Big thanks to the May 11th link to the LA show, petewilgoren (grate interview, behind the scenes, opener etc) I'm in LA...didn't go but listened and threaded online and what a moment! Wharf Rat ..the excitement you could feel...all of LA in an octopus garden with Wharf Rat tentacles LOL L

The drive from Yosemite to Tahoe is spectacular-I was there once in early June and it snowed really heavy in the mountains. Being from miami it was kind of freaky and cold !!!Saw the String Cheese Incident at Harrahs And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

Get rid of an earworm song? Yesterday, YESTERDAY I listened to Diana Krall's "Quiet Nights", and hanging in there near the end of the album, catching me unawares, was a cover the of BeeGees' "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart." I've never liked the BeeGees, grew to loathe them during the disco era, but Krall does this very nice cover and suddenly I've got the BeeGee's version in my head and it won't go away!! ARRRGHH!!

What have I done??? TL, you're probably in big trouble, because I've read that these things infect women more than men, and music lovers more than the general populace. Two strikes against you. So sorry!!

Way better advice than I got from one of my "friends": I got a message to get to you on this. I think the way to get the song out of your head will happen when all the lights go out in Massachusetts… and I’m not just starting a joke here. Perhaps this is just jive talking. But this one seems to be be like antibiotic-resistant staph, no killing the sucker. Right now I'm stuck at work, no streaming allowed on my computer, no music to listen to, just trapped inside my head with frakkin' song. Does DP 24 come in pill form?

Focus, my man, focus! Just keep chanting to yourself: Some folks trust to reason, others trust to might. I don't trust to nothing, but I know it come out right." That should cure you of your current bout of Saturday Night Disease. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

You've talked me down, the demon song has vanished. Or at least given way to Joe Cocker's "Hitchcock Railway." Don't know why it was that song, just glad it was something I like. Happy Friday!
