Have a wonderful time with your daughter and post pix!

Am sooo happy for you. Same thing happened to me, but in reverse (I am the daughter that was given up for adoption, and my biological mother found me just 11 years ago), so I find your post very special indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!********************************** Don't part with your illusions.

My daughter Shanna is coming to town from Flordia, I haven't seen her in over 1 year!!Long story but I gave her up for adoption 29 years ago,and we met 13 years ago, we rarely get to see each other cause she's in Fl and I'm in NJ. She is like my twin we look and act so alike!! I will post pictures of us!! She gets here on Monday the 21st! I can't wait to see her again. **Here Comes Sunshine**

this is the first ive heard bout the spectrum it is the home of my first dead show 88 that place does n always hold a dear place in my heart since it was my home venu n also the place were i saw the boys the most it will surly be missed by my self along with countless othersat least we will always have the cherished memories

they were BOOING? Not just doing that annoying MOOORRRE thing? Man, East Coast fans are hardcore!

I just received the news the Philly Spectrum will be demolished early next year and be replaced with a mall and restaurants. "And the times they are a-changin". It was my home venue through high school in the 80's. A lot of good memories will go down with that building. The most memorable was in 1986. I was normally a hallway dancer, but this show I dug my way to about the 4th row in between Phil and Bob and and saw first hand Jerry lose touch with himself and his guitar totally took over his body. It was a Morning Dew out of space and Jerry did not look like the pillar of health coming out after drums. He was sweaty and shaking, but kicked into the most soulful rendition of Dew that I ever witnessed firsthand. (I believe it was my 1st Dew too). His guitar played him....I was convinced. I had tears in my eyes for the first time at a show. I was so blown away. Dew ended and the Band went off the stage. I didn't really comprehend the show was over, until the faithful in Philly started booing the Dead post encore. THE BOO'ed the DEAD. I was flabergasted. Never before and never again. Never a dull moment. I will miss the Filthy Spectrum.

thanks for the heads up!

Very nice! ............. miss him:(

Cheryl Crow video called "Out Of Our Heads" a pretty cool song and they show Jerry in it giving a peace sign :) right after these lyrics...Every man is his own prophet Oh every prophet just a man I say all the women stand up, say yes to themselves Teach your children best you can Let every man bow to the best in himself We're not killing any more We're the wisest ones, everybody listen 'Cause you can't fight this feeling any more, oh anymore If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads And into our hearts Children of Abraham lay down your fears, swallow your Tears and look to your heart
