hey folks, in the interests of not polluting some other thread (> snorkle!<) in ths tribe, I am suggesting we start a new topic to be silly if we feel like, talk about what we do when we AREN'T looking for a Dead show, and generally remember that we are humans first, uh duh that I even have to tell anyone that,who happen to like the GD.

anyone who finds this topic threatening for any reason is free to consult the mental health porfessional of their choice.

or to take their favorite psychedelic if your idea of Gpd's mental ehalth day is a debatably legal smile, to paraphrase one of John Prine's most notoriously funny songs, "Illegal Smile."

I have a bunch of work to do today so must beg out now.

it looks lke a gloriously beautiful day at elast in the bay Area, hot over the hill and just warm and syunny enough here right by the Bay...get out and enjoy it, whether your smile is legal, ilelgal, or some of each and somewhere between!

"won't you please tell The Man I didn;t hurt anyone, I was just out to have me some fun."

I'm planning on a little of that too.

  • Y'know, I think that's a really good idea, except that it should be a different tribe, not a topic here.
    • okay, that's one vote, that Deadheads Unite should not include a little online laughter among self-identified Deadheads pof whatever flavor.

      any others want to weigh in?

      and what shouldwe call this other trinbe...Deadheads Who Can Take A Jpke? as opposed to...oh never mind.

      and some people think I'm too serious sometimes...heh.
    • Unsu...
       
      In another tribe i'm a member of, someone posted about unions and starbucks even tho it had nothing to do with the tribe topic. i balked about it and some people listened and agreed, some didn't. one person suggested that i might also spur tribe discussion by posting a relevant thread myself. so i did.

      Quaydin, i suggest the same to you. and coach. and others who seem to want control but aren't adding anything of dead relevance.

      while you might have a technical point that these threads are not dead-specific per se, this control queen shit from you and others on both sides needs to cease. i'm trying to hang on here and keep a good attitude towards this tribe, tribe.net in general, and my fellow deadheads here, but if this is all this tribe has to say, bitching about threads but putting forward no relevant thread, then maybe someone can just tell me so i can leave.

      jeez, people

      p.s. i heard another studio version of equinox yesterday after binging on a feb 20 77 studio version for years. it was fun to hear. i wish they had added this tune to their repertoire.
      • Judith, I think your idea is great. It would bring some life to an otherwise desolate place as of late. 8o)
        • okay, this'll show my age, so apologies to those of you who see it as ageism,...but who's been around the Bay ARea long enough to remember Winterland? did you used to make the GD new Years Eve shows then..oh my god, was it five or six bucks for a ticket and you could just walk up to any vendor window and buy one, as alte as a day or two bfore the show? have a favorite among Dead WInterland shows?

          I used to get a gioggle in at all the stners giggling at the Bugs Bunny and Road Runner/COyote cartoons they;d project on the walls ebfore the show...ever see News Riders of teh Purple Sage open for them?

          I need to get off the computer and get back to work now but anyone else who might want to go voer their own history going to shows...go for it.
