    You can check out anytime you like...but you can NEVER leave! I saw similar acts of kindness among deadheads. I witnessed a couple of guys carrying a girls wheelchair down the stairs and someone else was carrying her! I really dont think you could have that many people that weren't deadheads in one space without having utter chaos. Remeber people being trampled to death at other rock shows... Chaos and rioting after sporting events... Not at a dead show! We take care of our own. We are true Americans! We are the most humane humans there are! PROUD TO BE A DEADHEAD!

    marye, that was a beautiful read....I saw Bobby's guitar....Said to my wife...bet that goes for $10 grand... She looked at me and said...no! Half a million....at least.... ....it ain't me, it's the people that say..... smarter than the man in every way! Our community goes much deeper than music, it's spirit, family, oneness, and helping....leaving Soldier Field each night....And I got a bum leg...and..that place is NOT handicapped accessible in the classic sense, don't know how they stay open... likely took 6 months off my lifespan limping my 2 miles to the shuttle to the hotel but I'd do it again in a heartbeat, the final night I saw 4 heads, carrying a guy in his wheelchair thru the crowd....made me cry.....if there were more people like us, the world would be a happier place.... Back on ba dus....bring on Ratdog with John Mayer....so what if his body is a wonderland? ;-) every time I think I'm out....they pull me back in!

    as quoted: Yeah, there’s a feeling that our fanbase wouldn’t be served if there were no more events. I think it’s pretty obvious to everybody. Everybody wants to go to more shows. HELL YES WE WANT MORE SHOWS!!! oooh weee, could it be? just tell me where to sign up! Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune Something to make us all happy Do anything take us out of this gloom Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy You are the one who can make us all laugh But doing that you break out in tears Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had We wouldn't have known you all these years Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune Something to make us all happy Do anything take us out of this gloom Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy You are the one who can make us all laugh But doing that you break out in tears Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had We wouldn't have known you all these years Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune Something to make us all happy Do anything take us out of this gloom Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy You are the one who can make us all laugh But doing that you break out in tears Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had We wouldn't have known you all these years! lets here it for 50 more years of Grateful Dead!

    rrrgrrr, I love confusing people at work! When my supervisor found out I was going to the shows, she was like wow, I never pegged you for a Dead head. I guess you never can tell... It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell, "C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell They furnished off an apartment with a two room Roebuck sale The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger ale, But when Pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well "C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell They had a hi-fi phono, boy, did they let it blast Seven hundred little records, all rock, rhythm and jazz But when the sun went down, the rapid tempo of the music fell "C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell They bought a souped-up jitney, 'twas a cherry red '53, They drove it down New Orleans to celebrate their anniversary It was there that Pierre was married to the lovely mademoiselle "C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell

    Maybe check with Zeke when he is back from vacay. He had to set up some stuff for my account. This next tune about sums up life in STL right now... Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people looking half dead Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come-on come-on and dance all night Despite the heat it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity That the days can't be like the nights In the summer, in the city In the summer, in the city Cool town, evening in the city Dressing so fine and looking so pretty Cool cat, looking for a kitty Gonna look in every corner of the city Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come-on come-on and dance all night Despite the heat it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity That the days can't be like the nights In the summer, in the city In the summer, in the city Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people looking half dead Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come-on come-on and dance all night Despite the heat it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity That the days can't be like the nights In the summer, in the city In the summer, in the city

We braved high water (literally) yesterday and the sacred thumb has landed! It has already been debriefed, re-packed and all it now needs is Steve/Roadking's mailing address to resume its return to the east coast when USPS reopens on Tuesday. BTW: Has anybody heard where DEADSPACE1 and DEADSPACE2 are hanging out these days? If anybody needs it, my mailing address is: Jeff Smith; PO Box 1126; Fort Davis, TX 79734
