I was listening to the version of "Sugaree" on the live Merl
Saunders and the Rainforest band compact disc, and thought that
if this tune was put on the Deadicated album, many including
myself would think that this is the best tune on the album.
By the standards discussed on this forum, this version definately
cooks performance wise (it's live!), and is quite original, giving
the song a much jazzier feel to it.

Just a thought, if there is a Deadicated II, I hope that Merl 
Saunders is asked to come up with another interpretation of
a Dead Classic.

Had to be the other way around, you know :

Well I still drive (occasionally) a '69 F*cked Over Rolling Disaster
Econoline.  The formed potmetal lettering ( Econoline ) on the driver
and passenger (ODC) side doors has been replaced with Econoline Humptruck
back in my wierd younger days (as opposed to my wierd current days).

My 'ol pal RJ had her 70 Oldsmobile letters on the hood replaced with
the letters she took off her parents old Kelvinator refrigerator.  She
used to have a set of about 4 different parking/speeding tickets with
the MAKE blanks reading "KELVINATOR".  I guess you had to be there but
"Yes, Officer it's a Kelvinator, they *are* pretty rare, made in northern
Egypt, and sold in Morrocco for only two years.  I wouldn't have one except
my Dad was an expatriated mining engineer working in Morrocco, and he 
sent this one back as a collectors item, before he died in that horrible
cave in. *sob* " _still_ makes me laugh til I cry.

This really is a quibble, but:

1.  The current name of the school is SUNY-Binghamton (no 'p').
2.  In 1970, SUNY-Binghamton did not yet exist -- the school was called
    Harpur (that's right, with a 'u') College.

Perhaps you will forgive me this quibble -- I am a Harpur alumnus, and no, I

Yup.  Pretty decent when they do nice little shows like the one you cited.
That's what I used to love about the Caboose, they used to do lots of Dead
covers and do them well, then they got a following and dumped all the Dead
tunes, losing some of their fans as well.  Not that I mind originals now, just
that I'd hoped they would be *the* Dead cover band to catch a couple times
a year when ya need that fix, and many of their originals just dont do it for
me. All of this is personal opinion of course. I've gone back and seen 'em a 
few times over the past 3-4 years and still feel that way. Matter of fact, just
caught them down in Knoxville about a month ago. But Wood and Steel tends to 
lean a little towards the folky side instead of the Deadbop that NPC pushes,
usually a very pleasant experience.  Funny thing 'bout NPC, 'cuz some people
just love them but some people just *hate* them.  One friend was flabbergasted
that, in his words, "Vince would sink so low as to play with those bums" at the
Bayou a while back.  Personally, I was bummed I didnt choose that show as 
another "give NPC another try" night.  Anyway, NPC tapes exist, though I have
none myself.

I haven't seen this yet, so I figured I let everyone know about GDM's  
newest money making scheme. Remember those Lithuanian basketball  
warm-up suits that everyone wanted one? Well, they are now available  
to the public in the form of a t-shirt. Pretty great, eh? Deadheads  
clamor to be able to get the shirts, and GDM makes them available to  
us. What a great company.

Now get this... they're charging for these t-shirts, not $10, not $20, 
NO, NOT EVEN $25!!  How about $33 !! :-( :-( :-(
                             ^^^^^
I guess they're preparing for when the Dead can't tour any more.

And that's not the worst of it. What distribution channel did they  
decide to use for these overpriced shirts? TICKETMASTER !!!!
What the fuck? Ticketmaster???

$33 t-shirts being sold through Ticketmaster. You probably have to  
pay a $7 convenience charge.

Somebody please tell me that at least all the profits are going to
the Lithuanian Olympic team or something like that. (All the Dead's
profits anyway, you can bet TM's profits aren't going anywhere but
into their pockets).

Dead articles two day in a row in the Atlanta papers.  What is the world 
coming to?

Grateful Dead Slam Dunk
Melissa Turner 
Atl. Journal & Constituion
August 29, 1992

Champiion Products made the Dream Team uniforms, Reebok made their gold medal
award suits, and Nike made most of their shoes.  So it's rather amusing that
these mega-marketers are being upstaged by the Grateful Dead and Team 
Lithuania.

The tie-dyed shirts worn by the basketball bronze medalists were paid for by
the 1960s psychedelic rock band.  Featuring a slam-dunking skeleton, the shirts
ar one of the hottest selling items to emerge from the Summer Games in
Barcelona.  One-third of the $30 shirt cost goes to the Lithuanian Olympic
Committee; the band got nothing more than a good time.

Journalists in Barcelona paid $50 to get extras, while Lithuanian team members
received offers of up to $150 for the shirts off their backs.  A flood of
callers to the NBA's Golden STate Warriors, where Lithuanian star Sarunas
Marciulionis plays, knocked out the switchboard last week.

The shirts are sold by the band and by Ticketmaster.  The band's merchandising
arm has received 20,000 orders since the shirts went on sale last week.  
Ticketmaster reported more than 5000 orders in 48 hours.

"The Grateful Dead are about celebration and freedom," said band spokesman
Dennis McNally.  "It was utterly appropriate, this small country emerging from
the shadows after 54 years.  What could be better than connecting with us?"

==========================================================================
I am probably the only person in the universe who has not seen these shirts,
as I found the Dream Team to be one of the least exciting aspects of the 
Olympics.  Is there a picture in any national magazines that shows them?  I
saw a little bit from the back in the August 17 Sports Illustrated, but I was
hoping there might be a better one that I could seek out in my local library.

	So is Maryland.  Two or three years ago the Maryland State Troopers
Assn. replaced their "I support The MD State Police" stickers with these.
You get these when some trooper convinces you to give them money, partially
with the nudge-nudge-wink-wink understanding that a State Trooper would be
less likely to give you a ticket.  Then you get this thing...  A distant
frined of mine also reports that they don't give a shit when writing you
a ticket (they still will), they just wanted to get that on alot of cars.

  You mean you don't know? 
  
  I'm trying to avoid a philosophical discussion
  that will almost certainly degenerate into flames, so I'll stop 
  short of defining "music" and just say I meant in my post 
  music as what the Dead (or others) play on their instruments. What you
  listen to. You know, the sound that comes out of the PA.
  The stuff we record on tapes. The thing fewer and fewer people go to 
  shows to hear. Music, as opposed to all the political/social/etc.
  baggage that people try to tack onto the band. If you've been reading 
  dead-flames/r.m.gd for any time at all it should be obvious to you
  that lots of folks here disagree on lots of stuff. Yet almost everyone
  likes at least some of the music. 

  ....and what is good, Phaedrus, and what is not good? Need we ask
  anyone to tell us these things?
