    my bittersweet pleasure...
    gypsy soul SAID Posted: July 20, 2007 - 5:33am "thanks ccjoe you answered my next question. love that kind of stuff. almost hurts too in a bittersweet kind of way. i think you know what i mean. thanks again baby, you are the best!!!" no, YOU are the best, babe, you are the best. I know exactly what you mean in bittersweet. yeah, it does hurt. and while it hurts, I still can not get over how wonderful it is. I see the band lounging together, probably the only band in the history of the fucking world that had such a relationship with their fans. such a sense of humor, such touching, caring love for everyone -- a true two way street. as much as the fans loved the band, the band loved the fans. they always did. that was the special relationship we had with them, and them with us. being near the front of the stage, and Jerry smiling at ME. smiling at US. the boys playing their hearts out for our joy and pleasure which bounced off us and back into them to open their hearts yet further... do you think Madonna has such a relationship with her fans?? I remember watching that show 'live' on cable TV or whatever with a group of hard core east coast heads... well, hardcore to a certain extent since we never motivated enough to get to the left coast for a NYE show. (sigh) man oh man, when we saw those comedy clips we were fucking freaking out. nice memories, thankfully preserved on tape for the generations to come to see and enjoy. but it makes me remember... the one year, the one fucking year, I had all of my shit together, had all of my plans carved in stone, to be in the bay area for NYE... what happens? oh, yeah, bittersweet to say the least. peace.

    What do you think the chances are of convincing the dead to put their sb tapes on the net something like David Grissman does with his Acoustic Disc label? You know, charge a nominal fee and let us download them. It seems a shame to lock all that rare and unique music away in a dungeon. I.m new here, so this may have been discussed before.

    do a google search for Ticket To New Year's Grateful Dead and you will find the DVD that has these extra comedy clips, and, of course a smoking show. 1987, Dec. 31!

nope, nice guesses, but neither Peggy O or CC Rider and the show was from 1982... pretty close with the year, though!! peace "The highway is for gamblers, you'd better use your sense. Take what you have gathered from coincidence"

Upon further review I've concluded that the sound bit is "Touch." If it isn't "Touch" then it's "Bertha."

Oh, yeah, about the "Playin'" Controversy: I couldn't find a real good comparison with Keith on keys as it seemed he used the Wah-Wah until Keith left and ditched it around the time that Brent came around. I definitely like both styles, but the Stratocaster + Wah-Wah is a tone that just really did something for me. Now, its not like I'd ever complain about hearing it either way, but yes, Joe, you did point out many other factors that contributed to the "not quite the samedness" of the two versions, but I did the same thing you did: I listened to so many versions of Playin' that just floored me that I forgot what I was doing! Bozo Bus: I was in a band called "San Pedro Circus" back in 2001 when I played there. We were on tour and I had a bunch of my Denver buddies show up so it was kind of extra special for me. That and I actually played well that night which I had been struggling with at the time. I think there was an opening band, but green cookies and two hours worth of basketball in the hot sun before the gig make most of it very blurry. Somebody call this tune quick before Joe starts thinking he is a genius or something. (nyuk nyuk nyuk!) )(I'm just a, well...porpoise.)(

not touch, not Bertha... nice guesses. Sken, I used to be a genius, then I realized it is more fun to be a 'fool' on the ship of fools... You thought you was the cool fool, and never would do no wrong... Heaven help the fool; guess I showed the sons of bitches Heaven help the fool, professional gimme-fiver... The wisdom of hypocrisy, the common sense of fools... Though I could not caution all, I still might warn a few Don't lend your hand to raise no flag atop no ship of fools... peace. by the by, I've been waiting for Gypsy Soul to try this round... she was the one who coaxed me into hosting this gameshow in the first place. ain't it always the way? just when you think you are developing a fan base, they skip out on you... the show must go on.

I'm putting every upbeat song in A that I know - one at a time. "From day to day, just lettin' it ride, You get so far away from how it feels inside, You can't let go, 'cause you're afraid to fall, But the day may come when you can't feel at all."

the easiest hosting site I have come accross is imagevenue.com you can even upload pics and post them without registering... go to their home page, follow the simple instructions, click 'safe for work' or 'not safe for work' as the case may be... copy and paste the new url into your post, and presto, the pic will appear here... easy to use, really. image hosted by ImageVenue.com "The highway is for gamblers, you'd better use your sense.

http://img142.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=th_30735_oscar_122_544lo.jpg but with imagevenue.com, use the url that says 'Hotlink Image on a Website or Auction' for some reason on this board, it does not take the other ones... and it will end up looking like this shit at the top of this post... not the cool pic of Oscar. peace.

not Cold rain and snow... please try again. I'm gonna give this round another 24 or 48 hours before I ditch it and start round two. I'll admit, the sound quality on that old audience recording sucked. peace. "The highway is for gamblers, you'd better use your sense. Take what you have gathered from coincidence"

the only thing the clock is suggesting is where I left my brain all those years ago... every clock in my house is set to 5:15. (my old lady is a total Who fanatic) but, it is not Stella, not Row Jimmy, Not Uncle John's, and not Baby blue... nice tries, but nope. ( -; please try again. peace.

nice try, but nope. not Sugar Mag. OK, one hint... this particular song is the first song of a second set played in 1982. if no one guesses this one in the next 48 hours, I'll tell the answer and move on to round two. please don't touch that dial.

that the light strumming isn't the part to be keying in on. I may be wrong. Right before the clip ends it sounds like the onset of Victim.
