  4. So they say it was 11,111 days since Jerry’s passing that Bobby passed. The angel number. ❤️‍🩹✨ also, no coda to Sugar Mag at his last show. I have read of a proposal to all to sing Sunshine Daydream on the year anniversary of this last show, Aug3rd. Isn’t that sweet? To take a page from Bill Graham’s passing where the band waited a week to finish Sugar Mag in honor of him. i’m sure most of you are familiar with that one week pause where Sug Mag was played the day Graham passed and Sunshine Daydream performed the day of his memorial. Bobby Weir. What a mystical intrepid cowboy spirit. I saw him front row center with Wolf Bros before Covid broke in 2020. I tell you I listened to his rendition of “ Tomorrow Never Knows” on repeat during that crazy time. It gave my soul solace. Just one of the ways he buoyed my life. Fly high Ace! And please intercede for all that is good for us here on this ball of blue we call our home. May the four winds blow you safely home.
  5. Have a fabulous time! i haven’t been able to react to anything for months now.

  7. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For it all!! . This trip for materialized on Monday!! Soaked up the time, the music and the chance to have a hug/ dance fest. It lifted me up! We all got lifted up, I could see it, the heads surfacing above water and maybe full whale breach, playing in the musical waters and that is the real juice . I have to agree with Glory that Brian was celebrating his graduation. Danced with everyone’s spirit in remembrance and in real time and it was selfishly rejuvenating. I needed the respite. I didn’t think I would have spaced a Mr Charlie or even the race is on! I walked in on Birdsong. so glad i made it! just wish i had met Greg. love you all not fade away and happy new year to you!

  9. Welcome back Rob E!
  10. It is with a heavy heart I share the death of Brian. One of the most joyous, loving, hearty people I have ever met. Your smile is emblazoned in my mind when I think of you, Brian. You painted life with bright, bold strokes. And to dance with you brought so much infectious energy and joy! Thank you for being you! Your bright spirit is not diminished but soaring. He defied gravity here on earth and wow, defied belief with the story of meeting the whale calf! What a trippy dude. 🫶💗 Gone From My Sight I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side, spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other. Then, someone at my side says, "There, she is gone." Gone where? Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast, hull and spar as she was when she left my side. And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port. Her diminished size is in me -- not in her. And, just at the moment when someone says, "There, she is gone," there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!" And that is dying...
  11. My heart is heavy and I am still in disbelief and shock that he’s gone. Aaron was a close friend, instigator of the best kind and always ready to bugaloo which to know me was instantly endearing. I say Aaron because he admonished me after years of friendship that he had real name, lol. There was never a question to what was on his mind; when I first met him at Black Mountain shows in 2014, he told me he thought I’d be ugly and frumpy with a handle like Poetry Girl. This is hard to write because it makes it more real. We have had heart to hearts, pulled all nighters together, gambling or traipsing around NOLA, riding scooters around Indianapolis, laughing easily at his absurd assertions or funny ideas. He had such a big heart. I was so happy he made it to St Louis and texted him so, hoping the night filled him up, getting his head above water for a little while. The past year or so he had a heavy heart, lost zeal. I think of him every show really, always missing his dancing, competing with me for steps, which I won, haha, and missed him in Asheville during Music Never Stopped, watching the crowd really bust loose and get down, knowing he would be in heaven. When he hurt his foot and wore a brace, we maximized it in ADA in ATL; you know he would have had it no other way. Aaron lived life hard, harder than I ever could. Alas, desolation row. Starheads make the best community. I love you all very much. We lost a good one and damn, I wish I could have talked to him Sunday. I hate it for so many reasons, not the least being, for his son. Remember, it is a wonderful life. Bittersweet, but wondrous all the same. ❤️
  12. Damn. I’m so torn up. Incomprehensible. Floored. Sad. Mad.
  13. The song so celebratory a feel to dance, all goodness breaks loose.
  14. Says 2muchfun
  15. Why are we in jail? 😩😂
  16. So I can’t react to any posts for some reason. Anyone else?
  17. This venue was fabulous! 15 min drive from the peninsula pf downtown Charleston along the banks of the Cooper River. We took in lovely breezes this time of year with ample space for good visibility. Picnic blankets, cane creek chairs and happy people littered the lawn in front of a fabulous stage. oh where to begin! I took my daughter to her first DSO show, though she has a little deadhead resume seeing the Jerry’s birthday celebration at Red Rocks Bob Weir put on and some southern D&Co shows but she really loved the scene that is DSO. We hullabaloo’d last night! And i t was a real unexpected blast to see Vince and Sue!! The band gave us he psychedelic download and we walked in the transitive nightfall of into diamonds. The Dark Star was so crafted, spinning crystalline sound folding in again and again like orgami. The guy bothering us durimg Lovelight finally got the message we weren’t there to meet him, in the middle of a song!! and rather dance and hear the music. The sweet people up front folded us in and there was a real dance party going on. Nothing to me caps a show like William Tell and the Eleven. No more time to tell how This is the season of what Now is the time of returning With our thought jewels polished and gleaming! When Lauren and I were leaving, a lady stopped us. It was her first of a Grateful Dead kind of show. She said she took in the scene and was figuring out what it was about. She said watching us dance and really express the music made it make sense. Wow! What a compliment. May the golden road bless us all. Mama tried. 🤣

  20. Great show! Touching for Asheville, Box of Rain, Let Me Sing your blues away, and the crowd really cut loose to Music Never Stopped. It was a beautiful thing!! So many changes. Everywhere. Nothing like a good show to reiterate true north. The power or music to bring people together is where it is at. There was a gentleman juggler in the crowd that juggled expertly while I danced to Estimated that was pretty much everything!! The height of fun!! And surely, we all need fun! Fabously spring, Asheville brought sweet breezes as the sun peeked in and out of the clouds, just like familiar faces peeked in and out of the crowd. Thank DSO and crew! A good time had by all. And what Tea said. 😄
