No, life is good.  Especially with all you guys around.  Really, I've
been pretty bored lately.  I'm independantly wealthy, so I am not
currently employed at the moment.  All I have to do for fun is hang out
in bars, pick up some easy broads, fuck their brains out, go to bed,
wake up, smoke a doobie, go pick up some bitch in the supermarket,
take her home, more banging, take a shower, go out to the bars to
pick up some more chicks, etc, etc...

And now, in addition to nothing but sex and drugs all the time, I have
you folks to keep me amused! :)  

Thanks so much for giving me the attention I need so badly.

I really hope I'm not posting mulitiple copies of this - I'm having some
problems with my News interface. If this is the third time you're seeing
this I apologize. I won't try again until tomorrow if it doesn't work
this time.....

I'm looking for the following shows:

 11/1/73 Northwestern University (do these exist?)
  1/7/78 or 1/8/78 Golden Hall, San Diego CA
 4/13/88 Rosemont Horizon, Chicago IL
 7/17/89 Alpine Valley (I aleady have 4th gen Aud)
12/28/89 Oakland Coliseum
 6/17/90 Shoreline
  7/8/90 Three Rivers (Audience sounds bad, looking for board)
 12/8/90 Compton Terrace
12/12/90 McNichols Arena

Also:
Halloween run 1991 (Oakland) - first three shows (I have Halloween)

And from 1992:
Spring: Hampton
Summer: Giants, Charlotte, Soldier Field, Deer Creek


I have a relatively small collection from which to offer trades, but do
have
a few nice boards scattered here and there. If you have a moderate to good 
collection, I probably have something you'd like. If you've got a major
collection, or are a DAT-head, I still may have something non-Dead you'd
be interested in. Otherwise I can only tell you that if you'll make tapes
for me for blanks, I will be infinitely patient. OK, I might send you a
reminder after three months, but you can basically throw my blanks into
your taping queue and get around to them whenever.

Finally, if you're reading this and you don't have any of the above, but
wish you did, or if you're just starting out and looking to pick up just
any crisp boards, get in touch with me. If you'll agree to the same terms
I've set out for myself above (i.e. be patient, they'll get done
eventually)
then I will be more than happy to give you my best.

Wish I could say I'd see you in Denver (Compton, Oakland), but graduate
school precludes it... THIS year. Maybe in February for Mardi Gras.

I regularly describe the net.discussions to a friend. You know what he told
me the other day? "I don't think I could stand to read that every day. There's
too many negative people." 

Can't we all just get along?  Why do people feel the need to always fire up
the flamethrower when something is posted they don't like?  If you don't
agree with someone, tell yourself "Self, I disagree" and let it go at that.
There's no need for an assult on the poster. This is especially true about
posts that are obviously designed to provoke a respose. Why waste time and
bandwidth to give the poster what they want. Ignore them and they will go
away. If you want to post to correct bad facts, great. But don't bother with
opinions.  Calling someone who says Donna sucks (oh,oh!) an asshole neither
proves nor solves anything.  

About this wheel thing:

WHO CARES?  If people want to form a secret group that excludes others, that
is their right.  If you don't like it, don't try to join.  And if you think
these people are assholes, you should be happy they aren't on the net.  If 
they think they're better than others, that's their loss, not mine.  What
happens if the list of members gets posted?  Are the rest of us supposed to
say "Bad wheelie, we won't talk to you now?" Do trades with them get "lost"
in the mail?"  

And what is this net.god shit?  Does that mean that some netters are superior
to others? How is this judged? Even calling someone a net.god in jest is sure
to lead to an inflamed ego.

Remember, we are a diverse group. Let's try to be more understanding of each
other, and maybe this group will be more enjoyable to read.

Hey y'all.  The other month I picked up an LP bootleg in Pittsburgh,
titled "Pig Pen: Bring Me My Shotgun."  I'm wondering if anyone out
there knows about the origin of these tracks.  They are supposedly
studio recordings from 1970.  Most are solo, just guitar and voice,
or piano.

The list of tracks on the jacket is incomplete; the tracks on the record
go as follows:

C. C. Rider
Guitar Instrumentals (3 of 'em)
Bring me my shotgun
Hitch-hiking woman
Piano riff

I got two women (2 aborted versions)
Another piano riff
I got two women (full version)
Santa Fe Queen
Gas Station Rap
Hobo Jungle (with Michael)
??? (some talk, then a quit bit of guitar and the tape cuts off)

The outfit that put it out is Brigand (Brig 026).  It doesn't sound bad,
and Pigpen is in good form.  So, anyone know the circumstances under which
these were recorded?  Who is Michael, anyway?  etc.

Thanks, 

Doug.

hey, great U2 show saturday!  if you haven't had a chance to see
zoo/tv, it's an experience ...

rhetorical question for the day:  did you ever notice that people
don't dance nearly as much at non-dead events?  i swear that crowd
didn't even start to MOVE until public enemy blasted them out of
their seats, and then only a very small % started dancing.

public enemy was something to see/hear.  my literal mind had a
problem with their MC telling us all to stand with peace signs above
our heads (aaaaah, you know what i mean!) , then put your fingers
together like *this* meaning solidarity/togetherness .... then
hoisting a KKK effigy on-stage wearing a designer noose :( .  i
mean, i DO get the graphic symbolism of it all.  but one problem
we're all experiencing today is that nobody can be 'peaceful
warriors' (thanks M) ...  killing 'them' back isn't peace ...  but
here's to the real thing ...

and on a lighter note much of my amazement saturday stuck upon the
couple standing in front of me who stood up when U2 came on and then
proceeded to ... STAND ... there all night.  not once did they
accidentally fall into the groove.  in fact, it threw my rhythm off
a couple of times :)

oh, yeah, and U2 ROCKED US!!

Bzztt!  Wrong!   It's not the dolby, it's your shitty cassette deck!!
I can make tapes on my Nak Dragon in dolby C, and you will not hear
audible distortion.  Yes, I know that not everyone has a Dragon, but
my point is that dolby works great on a quality deck that is properly
adjusted.

> This is an easy experiment to make: tape a record without Dolby,

I've done this many times.  The dolby C tapes sounds WAY BETTER!
The non-dolby tapes sounds like the record with an ocean of hiss in
the background.  No thanks!

If you use a good brand of cassette and have a decent deck, dolby will
work just fine.

What???   Many many a sweet Stella Blue (or other nice quiet Jerry ballad)
has been ruined by unacceptable levels of tape hiss.

Since most Dead tapes get copied over and over for friends of friends,
that's all the more reason to keep the hiss level as low as possible.

Dolby *does* have problems with mistracking from deck to deck, but if
you're recording and playing back on the same deck, and your deck is
good, then you should be using dolby C (or at least dolby B). IMHO.

Why do we have to go through this discussion at least twice every year??

Sorry to blow such a humerous line about "Careful with that axe,
Eugene," but Jerry's brother's name is not Eugene.
 
According to the Rolling Stone 25 Aniversary interviews issue,
Jerry says, "My brother _Tiff_  and I were chopping wood and I
would pick up the pieces of wood, take my hand away, pick up
another piece and -- BOOM!  It was an accident."
 
He goes on to say, "the traumatic part of it was after the doctor
amputated it.  I had this big cast and bandages on it, and I thought
for sure my finger was under there.  That was the worst part, when the
bandage came off, 'Oh my god, My finger's gone!'"
 
Maybe Tiff is just his nickname of something, but if its in the
FAQ I thought it should be accurate.

note for note is a different kind of thing. Nothing
wrong with it- John Bonham of Led Zep used to work out

that to Keith Moon, a different kind of great drummer who
