new head looking for the group connection
Hey people hows life going? My names Willy Pete and I'm a pretty young dude (think 18) whose parents might be letting me loose for the first time to drive a few states over to hang out on the "scene". I don't really have buckets of money so buying a legit ticket is out of the question, but I definitely have enough for gas, food, maybe a cheap hotel to shower up or whatever. Anyone have word on where someone could get a shower? Is sleeping in a car safe/dangerous? Where the cheapest hotel might be (willing to drive out of town for this)? How not to get murdered or robbed?I don't really have a clue whats going to happen but I imagine it would involve hanging out, being a parking lot rat outside the show and later/before, at certain meet up spots.
A big request my parents made is that I find people and/or events beforehand to meet up with online so i'm not showing up clueless and alone.
So yeah, whats the word on how this is going down? I'd love to get to know some real down to earth people and have a good time. I've only spent time in small time local scenes, so this is a HUGE deal for me.
Bring me to the circle of life!
Love

Message From A Scalper In Miami
David Marc HarrisGrateful Dead 50th - Face Value Tickets19 hrs ·
FLAG IT! He just sent me this: YOU HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE FILE.
And you might want to let your friends know that all the harassing emails, with low ball offer and statements about my character or what I should or should not do with MY tickets and the prices of MY tickets, are being forwarded to the Attorney Generals Office and placed into a file that is being put together regarding a charge of conspiracy to commit extortion. You see when you and your friends decided to harass sellers into doing something against their will, in order to gain something for yourself is extortion. And since all of you conspirators are in many different states you bought yourself FEDERAL charges.

Message from Scalper
Like the feds would really give a shit or make a priority about a scalper selling tickets on Craigslist. Laughable.
I can't imagine anyone making threats or anything, right? That might be a different story.
Just remember that words in this forum are Google searchable, I think.
@ Scalper....
Whoa, James...what's that post you made all about dude?
That was certainly far from a nice and pleasant correspondence...
What's going on?
That's Gonna Leave A Mark
If he was feeling harassed before, I am sure he is feeling absolutely carpet-bombed now. He should have thought it through before posting that statement.
Message From Scalper Was Meant To Offend The Scalper
He made a threat that people who he felt were messing with him about the prices he was selling his tickets for were all being rounded up and reported to the Attorney General. A threat that has absolutely no merit. All he did was bring attention to himself, and this has all backfired on him.
Yeah, Sorry Post Was Misunderstood.
I assure everyone I am not scalping tickets on Craig's List in Miami. I live in Ely, Nevada. I have not been harassed by anyone over it, and I certainly am not threatening anyone with legal repercussions. A scalper in Miami posted this warning. I regret any misunderstanding this post has caused. Still feel it is of interest to some.
Sarsaparilla...
Fitting that today, the 150th anniversary of the Pony Express, you use the word Sarsaparilla.
Anyone know just what the heck Sarsaparilla is?
Other than rrrrrrgrrrrr (btw, we're still awaiting the details of your new cooking show on The Food Channel) anyone ever use that in a sentence?
Who talks that way?
Sarsaparilla:
Sarsaparilla is a soft drink, originally made from the Smilax regelii plant, but now sometimes made with artificial flavors. Sarsaparilla was popular in the United States in the 19th century.
What plant? The rrrrrgrrrrr plant?
@Sasparillies
And why are Shirley Temples called that? Boy I loved to eat the cherry, but I ain't no boy called Sue.
@sarsaparilla
It's collected at harvest time in Mendocino....
Had some at Willies Place in Maui....just for shits n giggles....

@double shots of entendre
Boy Rich, you got me there. I had to look that word up. Don't even get me going on the Brown Derby serving Shirley Temples!
Beer. I have a not so funny story about me, Southern Comfort, Hamburg Beach, and tickets for the 1987 Summer Tour. There is a happy ending involving kind people and a phone number of the girl I was wooing scribbled on the ticket envelope. Short story, No Whiskey! I should have had a Sasparilla instead.
Totes my man....
Kyle...87 was a wild tour year....
Ya know the Devils in the whiskey and the women....they are a bold deceiver...
Lived it, loved it, regretted it, savored it....
And there's whiskey in the jar'o.....

As for vocabulary...we use this forum to open our hearts, minds and enhance our vocabulary....I challenge each and every head to use 1 new word in a post daily and we will all be better for it....
and I like cherries too.....
Word of the day
Rumor has it there's a severe epidemic of caliclarahypersomnia spreading throughout the West coast. I don't normally wish illness upon others; in this case I've got to admit I hope the rumors are true.
caliclarahypersomnia:def: Severe and overwhelming need to sleep; inability to wake up; always coincident with GD Santa Clara ticket lottery deadlines. Effects include confusion upon awakening, severe distress over missing lottery deadlines, and a surplus of tickets for those unaffected.
He's Back!
Just announced last night - he's cleared for full contact.
Various and Sundry Maladies
Ya got me to wondrin' whether I've got a slight case of irstaxihypersomnia. I'll probably feel better tomorrow though.
