This is a true story.  The names were included to blame the guilty.

So the 13 year old comes to me and says "I'm tired of listening to this old
time hippy music and all my friends have CDs and I want a CD and I want it 
to be MY music!"
Hmmm....Flashback to 1964....So I tell my Dad "I'm tired of listening to all
This 78 rpm old Hit Parade music and all my friends have LPs and I want an
LP and I want it to be MY music!" Dad says "Well sure, but you've got to earn
it" So I mow lawns and wash windows and smile a lot and the happy day finally
comes. I head on out to the record store and lay the cash down and low and
behold Meet the Beatles becomes mine! She loves you ya ya ya. I'm in seventh
heaven. Dear ol' Dad comes home from the grind and says "Turn that shit 
off!" And so begins a wonderful relationship between my Dad, Me , and rock
and roll.
Hmmm.... Return to 1992... So I say "Well sure but you've got to earn it."
Well, the Kid mows lawns and He washes windows and he smiles a lot and then
the happy day comes and he heads down to the CD store. I come home from the
daily grind, and upon entering the house I hear some awful noise that does
not sound like music, but remembering the past, I decide to give it a shot.
Upon entering the room the Kid then turns down the stereo and ejects the 
CD. As he starts to walk out of the room I say "Hey, aren't you gonna let
me listen to your new CD?" "You can't Dad" the Kid says. "Its got one of
those parent labels on it. That means you're not supposed to listen to it"

Thank you Tipper Gore, The Congress and the record companies for protecting
Me! If only you had cared as much in 1964, just think of the grief you
could have spared my dear ol' Dad!

ODC: MY GOD IN HEAVEN! WHO ARE THESE HIPPY FREAKS???

 brother eagle,
 i hear what you're saying, but if you avoid the east scene you can't
 be spreading your good vibes, and if things are as bad as you say,
 isn't that where you're needed most???  Since i`m in rochester i'm
 pretty much on the eastern tours...you have to work with what's
 happening.  i passed out flyers with your message on it at starlake
 and a kind sister passed more out in chicago (thanx linda!)  Out of
 1000 flyers that's 1000 chances to change someone's outlook, or even
 if not, it still is positive.  If you hole up in wyoming all you are
 saying is that there's a place inside you that doesn't like the east.

 not everything's shitty in the east.  Head on up to western
 NY, we be chilly :^)

 How very true.  However most adolescents won't listen unless they're at
 that place where they're open to caring.  You have to pluck your cubic
 centimeter of chance when it happens around you, and you have to be quick!

 As far as i go one of my primary functions with the scene is to be a
 good karma head, always looking out for ways to indulge myself, as it
 were...take the time and time makes opportunities for you...

 i could give a shit about the press.  The function of the press is
 to capture the sensationalist occurrences, and they will do that,
 irregardless.

Concerning shows that didn't sell out:

Charlotte the past two years has not sold out (98% sure of that).  Also,
 several times I have had extra tickets that I had trouble selling (e.g. Miami
 1988), and or even giving away (e.g. Hampton this last spring).  The first
 night of Hampton (3-5-92) I had three extra tickets and literally shouted out
 near the fountain about 10 minutes before the show, "Does anybody want a FREE
 ticket ?"   Did I get any takers ? NO!  I couldn't believe it!  Actually, I
 had passed a number of Miracle seekers on the way in, but at that point I was
 still trying to sell them.  By the time I got to the fountain, I had given up
 trying to sell them (even for 5 bucks), but appartently all the Miracle
 seekers were back up near the entrance to the venue.  I decided not to go back
 and find the Miracle seekers since my friends wanted to go in, and, to be
 blunt about it, I'm sick and tired of people (i.e. the Miracle seeker or the
 beggar) who put themselves in such a pitiful situation and then EXPECT someone
 who tries like hell to make ends meet bail them out.  And while I'm rambling,
 let me say that it is a shame and quite sad that there are so many people on
 tour asking for money and/or tickets.  What is does is hurt those people who
 have had some legitimate problem and truely need some help from their brothers
 and sisters.  These days it's very difficult to tell who needs help and who is
 looking for a free ride.

	Too much They're Bad but We're Good, if ya ask me...  Here's a story
of karma going and coming around, meant to amuse and perhaps illustrate that
sometimes people have the opportunity to learn even when they ignore or don't
have good examples and even on the East Coast:

	It was after the second Meadowland's show, and me and Mike the
guy I went with were walking around outside and we saw this guy limping
along on what looked like a broken ankle, or maybe just sprained real bad.
So we asked him where he had to go and he said "Light Pole 18", so I loaded
him up on my back and carried him over.  On the way I asked how he'd hurt
himself and he told me he'd done it by jumping over the wall to get on 
the floor.  I made a remark about karma and the poor guy just had to agree...

	When we got to the light pole the car he was expecting to find wasn't
there, so we left him sitting at Pole #18...  Didn't really want to take
responsibilty for him and figured that the worst that could happen was the
cops would find him and deal with it...  But I'll tell you what:  I know
one guy who won't jump over the wall at any stadium shows any more...

In a much milder fashion, I agree.  Many of you know I strongly dislike
Landover, and I refuse to attend a show there.  Of course, if you have
no choice but to go to that one given venue, it's obviously another story.

Besides, despite all its documented shortcomings,I *like* MSG because 
it has one thing that many indoor arena lack:  soul.

Today is the 19th aniversary of the Watkins Glen
concert featuring The Allman Brothers, The Grateful
Dead and The Band.

600,000 people attended this show making it the
largest ever Rock and Roll concert.  After seeing
300,000 at the Bill Graham Memorial Concert, it's
really not that many.  When you think about it,
Woodstock was really small; just a large stadium
show.

does anybody want to run a tape tree of the
Grateful Dead Soundcheck at Watkins Glen 27 July 73
from a DAT soundboard seed?  email me ONLY if you
want to run a tree from a DAT.

 Subject: DEAD in Sports Illustrated

 In July 6, 1992 Sports Illustrated magazine there is an article about the
 Lithuanian Olympic basketball team.  They're pumped because they are are
 competing as a free country.  They have sponsors from expected donors,
 but..."the most off-the-wall support came from the Bay-Area based
 Grateful Dead, who kicked in $5,000 plus a set of tie-dyed warmups done
 up in Lithuania's national colors that would take the curl out of Wavy
 Gravy's hair."

 There is a photo and the dyes are very cool.


(With the Grateful Dead support and the glamorous uniforms designed for all the
Lithuanian Athletes that littleteam should make some visual impact, never mind
the medals.  Hope someone has primed the media especially TV so the cameras dont
miss the Entry of Lietuva.

As far as I know, Jordan is right on this point.  The Supreme Court
has, to the best of my knowledge, placed what I would call (inventing
some terms here) "contextual" limits on free speech; that is, you
can do it (yell "movie" in a crowded firehouse), but you *can*
get arrested for it, and you *cannot* invoke your right to free
speech to defend yourself against the charge of ...  well, whatever

But what would it be?

I didn't see Stills at the convention, but I heard the new song.  He did
it during his solo bit at a CSN concert here at MeadowBrook last month.

He introduced it by saying:

'This one is has a message for George Bush.  Come November you're 
f__kin' fired, pal!'

That brought cheers to the crowd.  A good song, too by the way.

  Just by sheer coincedence, I had an absolutely terrible time
talking to a woman from New York last night at Shooter's.  See,
John Williams, John Barlow's cousin, has this band called Intuit, 
and they've become the temporary house band at Shooter's so half
the Buckhorn crowd is hanging there nowdays.  Anyway, this drunk
woman from New York City kept telling me these wild eyed stories
while she poked, prodded, punched and scratched me with her 
fingernails for accentuation.  I finally got fed up and told her
she ought to learn to touch the world gently.
  I can't make any generalizations about the east coast from that,
I just thought it interesting to note.
  I'll agree with y'all that I need to consider going east and see
what I can contribute.  I was venting some outrage in that last
post.  I'm sure I was compensating for my own fear for the young
kids attracted into our scene also.  Criticisms are appreciated
and taken to heart.  Thanks Steve!
  And Ellen, on your way to Eugene, if you stop by ol' Laramie
here on I-80, I'd love to take you to the top of 12,000' Medicine
Bow peak and show you the Northern West slope of Colorado and
about one third of Wyoming.  Ol' Barlow lives right over the
mountains that form the west northwest horizon from up there.
That's about 275 miles as the crow flies but the peaks are only
200 miles off.
  Then again, I've stood up in the observation deck of the World
Trade Center and said in my best stage voice, "Goddamn! We sure
ain't got nothin' like this in Wyoming! (SPOIT!!)," just to give
the local's a thrill:-):-):-)

  Donna was asked to leave the band so Keith had to go too.

  My personal theory about the Porsche dude at Park West is he
  was on too much LDS.  Them Mormon's have severe alergic over-
  reactions to hippies like that for some reason.  But them
  little Mormon girls sure get kinky when they have a mind too.
  I think it's cause of the way they were raised.  At least
  that's what them little Mormon girls tell me anyway!
                     Thanks Brigham!

       And Goodnight Uncle Bobo!  Wherever you are!!

and as long as your name is on the PO Money Order you have no
worries!  They'll tell you everything they can about the status
of your order, (they have a computer you know!).

  I used to have that number memorized but since Tindall learned
to MO properly, it's fallen into disuse... 457- 8 something 34???
