Hmmm, Houston we have a problem...  (Remember that announcement?)
Seems all replies heading outta here are falling back; not enough
escape velocity or perhaps it's just just a sun-flare effect, either
way, I'm getting your mail and eating my own words twice.  Yumm yum!
In any event, I'll eventually find a way close to the edge and say
"hi there" personally!  :)

Oh, on the prior-mentioned DAT and Analog Taping Party: I'm thinking
about the Sat after the last Oakland show.  This would give us time
to get something from all of the new shows.  More later.  Can't wait
till December.  Any word on another Bill Graham Memorial concert?
The unbroken chain of balloons that day at the Polo Fields was pretty
impressive; can you imagine the breakout?  It would be something to
share...

Many still do, but it has nothing to do with the Grateful Dead, it has to
do with a lifestyle choice.  You should take a step back and look, then
maybe you will stop stereotyping.

Hey, if you are such a prankster than you don't mind a few coming back at

You can also play it like Robert Hunter and only do A and D with
a kind of bluesy shuffle beat.  Makes for great segues with
Van Morrions's "Astral Weeks", or about eighty dozen Lou Reed
songs (esp. "Heroin" or "Waiting for the Man").  Also nice
to jam out of "Up On Cripple Creek" and the yodelling ending
into "Franklin's"....

Yes!  Have fun, indeed!

	December's Musician magazine has an interview with Bob Weir in

better, turning his life around, etc, etc.  We could have been on the
road sooner but we decided to take some time to write new material,
etc.  

	A modererately interesting article.  The issue also has the
Roger Waters rebuttal to the David Gilmour article than ran a few

Zoo TV was good, but my personal opinion was that U2's newest 
music didn't translate too well to a live performance.  Don't
get me wrong, I thought the show was performed very well, I just
thought that past tours, such as Joshua Tree, were much more 
musically impressive.  

Did anyone else hear the U2 might be playing Clinton's 
inauguration?  Heard it on CNN!  Gonna get stranger...

ODC:  Saw MANY MANY deadheads at U2 show, very interesting.

 Joe, it appears from here, that you intentionally provoked this
virtual community. And then condemned the reaction you yourself
provoked. You diminish the credibility of your explanation by
your approach to the situation. If you sincerely so not understand
the reaction you provoked, you might educate yourself on what has
transpired in this country while you were gone. People perceived
you as attacking. In the end, it seems you could stand to examine
your own behavior at least as much as the people you provoked.

If you are interested in being a member of this community, consider
what you expect from a friend. Needless provocation? Demeaning remarks?
Knee-jerk judgements? It seems if we are not ready for your 'pranks',
then we are the 'enemy'. That sort of attitude probably doesn't
go to far in group situations. I , for one would welcome you here
under the same conditions we all live under. Show some consideration.
You want friends? Be a friend. You want respect? Show respect. It
works in other places, and I've found it to work well, here, too.

If you want us to get the d*** joke, let us in on it, too! Fair?
I'm hoping you DO want to be a part of this, and aren't just throwing
s*** in people's faces. If you do want to participate, consider
your past actions, and why we should all be judged on the basis of
whether or not we got your joke? We were doin ok without you, can
you *add* to the mix, instead of trasdhing it? I myself enjoy
pranksterism, and humor is sadly lacking in many of our lives.
But pranksterism impliooes the thought of antics designed to
*get us all off*, doesnt it? Does to me. Consider what there is for
us to learn from what you've done. And maybe upgrade your prankster
spirit, so we can all *benefit* from it, instead of having
hallucinogenic nightmares of .Netmas Past.

 And why, if your a friendly ghost, cant we know your name?
                                     retiring minds and all,

Yeah, it's pretty funny to go to shows like this and the crowd stands  
around like a buncha penguins. Especially when it's so very danceable.
People around us looked at us weird for dancing. In Tempe, we even had  
trouble with folks behind us (oh yeah, THAT old thing) for standing up   
and dancing. But really, folks, how many deadheads like U2? Most of my  
deadhead friends are ambivalent about it and actually thought we were  
excessive for doing mail order for tickets and traveling to, get this,  
four cities! And those same people wouldn't BLINK at doing the same thing  
for the Dead. Go figure. 
Nonetheless, it was incredible, truly a musical journey!!!

Wow, the net goes post-modern.  Joe's been reading Baudrillard.
There was no Gulf War; it was all videos made by the Pentagon
and Sadaam Hussein on the moon.  And that's not a band you're listening
to on that tape.  That's just a bunch of electrons wiggling around
your stereo system.  And -- this is the most important part -- 
you never really were at any Grateful Dead concerts.  There is no
Grateful Dead.  Just a bunch of electrons wiggling around and interacting
with a bunch of other electrons wiggling around.

We now return to a regularly scheduled illusion.
