Hey There

I was in Chicago over the weekend for a wedding and on my drive back to
the suburbs after the party a radio station (WXRT) played I Need a 
Miricle. Not that that was such a big deal but after the song the 
DJ came back on and said:

      "falafel for a ticket man"

I got a good chuckle 8^).

Neil is pissed off at the boys for having the most sold-out consecutive concerts
ever at Madison Square Garden (9 shows). So "sometime in the last year" (quote

About 2 months ago I tried a clothing dye called DYLON for tie die.
It dies cotton cloth in cold water in about one hour.  After many
machine washings, the bright colors are still bright.  The dye was
made in the UK, and cost about $3 at the local artist supply store.
I made a bunch of 4-color T-shirts that were alot of work.
If the official net-head shirts are tie-dyed, they are definately 
a labor of love.  :-)  I will pitch in if there's anything I can

Hmmmm...an interesting thread, despite its Republican origins :-)  For me,
it was an experience that left me no choice but to break my old grey-haired
mother's heart, grow my hair (even longer than it was at the time) and let
my freak flag fly!  I must have been about thirteen or fourteen and had just
started to play the guitar.  I remember coming up with what I thought was
a pretty cool chord progression.  I was playing it for a friend and his
older brother who said to me something along the lines of "Cool, you're
learning Sugar Mags."  "What do you mean," sed me, "I wrote this myself" at
which point we went to his house and he put on American Beauty for me.
Sure enough, not even I could deny the fact that my little riff was pretty much
exactly the intro to Sugar Mag, and by then it was all over; I figured that if
these guys are writing MY songs, then they must be worth checking out...I
handed the driver my fare, the doors swung shut and the bus sped off.  All Mom
ever saw was my grin through the back window!!!

Maybe some one could send one of these shirts to GDM so that they could
sue the national Frat/Sorority organizations for Trademark violations.
That would serve three purposes:
1) Keep GDM busy so they wouldn't bother heads trying to keep on vendin'
2) Give the Greeks a well-deserved boot-in-pants
3) Squelch any possibility that the scene will be further invaded by
   the drunken hordes. Maybe they'll boycott the Jerry comeback tour?

Of course, I am just joking here. I would prefer to think that Greekheads
would have their more obnoxious tendencies moderated by getting on the bus.
For the other college inhabitants, dancing bears are surely preferable to
GreekMetalMonsters.

Greetings from psych-o-delic Vermont just past the peak of foliage season....

I want to catch up on some threads.....

- Nudity at shows:  Does anyone remember a Worcester show from somewhere 'tween
  83 and 85 when at the break there was a huge roar and lo and behold a young
  lass was standing on a chair near the soundboard putting on a striptease act?
  I was way up front on the floor and couldn't see what was causing the 
  commotion but was filled in later by some taping buddies.  Also, I remember
  coming out of an early 80's spring Hartford show and walking down the street
  and seeing a young guy sitting on the curb stark naked.

- George Lambert thanks me for posting up the Fire Up+ (FAN 7711) release info.
  You are welcome.....If anyone is having problems getting this try

I'm fairly certain that the original price was nowhere near $500.
The signed/numbered lithos everyone is talking about are about 2 ft
square.  I remember when Garris was doing these: some friends of mine
ran into him in LA just before this run of 1500 was done.  At that
time he was selling large lithos (about 4 ft square) that were
un-numbered but he would sign with a "For Paul" or whatever.  I
got one of these for, I think around $50.  Definitely no more than
$100.  I then remember seeing/hearing about the smaller ones later
and the price being very similar.  There are less large ones around
but they were not numbered.

Personally, I could care less what anyone thinks they're worth now:
Baring dire financial problems it won't be sold while I'm around
to enjoy it.

Where to begin?

The most obvious is the security.  These are the guys that killed Adam Katz
at a show a few years back.  Last June they were RANDOMLY pulling kids off
the field and ushering them into ambulances and police cars for the awful
sin of dancing in the aisles.  They keep all of the ambulance and police
lights going full-on at the rear of the stadium -- I think it's to scare
people away from going to the bathroom.  Oh yeah -- they only had one
exit/entrance for the whole field area (which was referred to as the
"Giant's rectum" as I recall...).  Just a total bad vibe.  I was to bummed
with the security scene -- good thing RFK and Soldier's Field were there in
the following weeks to bring me back with a :-).

But -- Foxboro traffic was even worse than Giant's security!

Find yourself an employer that doesn't expect to own your body.

cisco has hired many people that interviewed in jeans and t-shirts. Feel free

THIS IS NOT A FLAME!

Don't do it!  Why bother wasting a bunch of money on a equipment
you won't ever use for anything else than to tape a few Grateful Dead
shows when DAT tapes have NO signal degradation and can be found
from experienced tapers with serious financial investments in 
their equipment?  

Not only are there fewer and fewer Dead shows to tape, there
are fewer and fewer taper tickets to be had.  Ask all the people
who have been taping for years who were denied Taper Tickets for
a General Admission show like Las Vegas.

You are a lot better off buying a good tape deck, preferably
a DAT ($650).  Of course if you are going to do that right, you have
to buy 2 DATs (so you can make copies) which will cost you 
around $1300.  $1500 is about what is now becoming considered 
an entry level microphone investment for a DAT taper.  

A low-budget investment used to be: $350 for a Sony D-6 Portable
Cassette and $400 for Nakamichi Microphones and add $100 for accessories
like the cables and mic stand to total about $900.

Of course, despite all this well-intended information, so of you
will go ahead and buy that first portable deck, and ask a taper
for a patch.  Then you'll buy your first set of microphones.  
Next thing you know, you'll have to get the DAT cause it pisses
you off when they don't haveto flip during the second set (ain't
that right Carl?).  Before you know it, you've got $4000 in your
mic set up and you are looking at converting a professional mixer
to DC so you can add that 3rd set of mic's to get the perfect
sound.  To you, those obssessed few, I say, welcome to the world 
of live taping.

I know that is isn't just me who feels as if when we vote, we really
get to vote for those whom we fear the LEAST!  i was very much for
john anderson, but seeing how easily Ronnie took that race helped to
convince me that unless a candidate is seriously being groundswelled
into office, voting for someone else [other than the biggest jackass
or pachyderm], 'just because you think they might be right for the
office' almost seems to be a waste.  yes, you know in your heart
that YOU supported marrou, but since your vote didn't go to clinton,
and thus Bush still got the majority, you might as well have voted
for wavy gravy or mickey mouse (tongue firmly implanted in cheek
here, folks, and yes, i just bit it!).

After your fine  review of Neil's works, I placed your name in nomination
for DiamondBack Of The Month!  I cannot believe after having your name
placed in nomination by the Chairman Of The Board of Net.Diamondbacks that you
could stoop so low as to write this snivelling drivel!

We, net.DiamondBacks, have taken a lot of heat so that fine young Americans
could honestly ask, "what is the best Neil Cd to buy?"  We have fought long
and hard to be taken seriously as a group only to find that we have been
infiltrated by the likes of YOU!

I thought that we had reach the pinnacle of acceptance when none other
than DAN HEALY played Neil's records on the PA during the break at the
Grateful Dead/Steve Miller show in Las Vegas.  (Yes, I have witnesses,
and yes, I have DAT tapes of the PA for trade)

Then you add insult to injury by writing:

|I love satire -- even some of the diamond jokes -- But my perspective
|is that they've gotten boring and a liitle too negative.

Do you think this is satire? You had better look up words you don't
understand before you use them!

I no longer believe that you are a DiamondBack at all, sir!  It seems
that you have been toying with our emotions all the while.  You probably
even stole that review of Neil's records from Rolling Stone  or worse
yet, made your wife write it.  I am currently searching through all the
reviews and clippings I have of Neil's performances and recordings and
when I find who you have plagurized there will be hell to pay!
