    cardboard sign: searching for someone to have fun with - female

    Love your sign. Who knows, maybe we can make it work. Stranger things have occurred between DeadHeads.
    I'm 50 (feel 30, look 40 - haha). Been coast to coast getting chased by The Dead (during the Jerry days). From New York.

    1980 Alaska original poster

    Hi all,
    Hoping to find my buddy an original 1980 Alaska poster for a wedding gift. It will be undoubtedly cherished by its new owner, and I'm willing to pay a pretty penny. Thanks!

    This is a little different…

    This is a little different than what's usually put here, but I'm looking for bluegrass musicians or people knowledgeable about bluegrass who would be willing to do a quick interview via zoom. I'm a student working on a project talking specifically about the banjo but also about bluegrass music generally, and as part of it I'm conducting a bunch of interviews with musicians, instrument builders, professors, and music lovers. The end product is gonna be a multimedia thing that will include some video stuff, some written stuff, some photography stuff, and maybe some other stuff who knows. If you'd be interested in doing an interview, know someone who would be interested, or have anything else you wanna tell/ask me about please feel free to PM me or comment on this

    I'm looking for Ron "Ripper" Corey..

    Anyone know Ripper? Or his whereabouts? I'm an old friend from the early 90's who's looking to reconnect w/ Ripper. I grew up in NY and moved to San Francisco in 1991 with another Deadhead buddy. I met Ripper one morning laying in the bed of his Toyota pickup in the campgrounds at the Eugene shows. I was stumbling around one early morning after the show and started jawing w/ him. He asked me if I wanted a Guinness? It was about 8am. That was the beginning a wild fucking day and a long friendship. We partied the rest of that weekend and probably met back up when we returned to the Bay Area. From there he said, Let's drive to the shows in Vegas. Hell yeah! It was most likely early 1994. When that West Coast run ended he said, Let's drive cross country and go to the big Woodstock 94' concert. Hell yeah! We we're on a roll and having a blast. And by this time we had a big crew of people that we're hanging w/ us and seeing shows. So we drove up through Idaho and tripped out w/ some wild people, crossed the country and saw GD shows at The Palace in Michigan. Finally got to NY. We posted up on my folks porch and partied for days. My Mom loved Ripper. We gave her a pot plant that was in car. Somehow we managed to keep it alive and watered it while driving cross country. We did all the Giants Stadium shows. Then Ripper went up to Mass to meet his buddies, I stayed in NY and we both went to Woodstock 94' with our friends. Then we met back up in the Bay area later in early Fall. And we hung out all through the mid 90's. I would run into Ripper in San Rafael. Sitting outside New George's. And I once put an add on Craigslist asking if anyone knew where Ripper was? Someone replied that he went back to Mass. and he's involved in a big Grateful Dead fan club or something. Well, I've been out in CA for 30 years and I'm moving back to NY. It's been a good run out here but I need to get back to my roots. And I need to find Ripper so I can pick up where we left off. Or maybe a mellower version of that. Maybe you know him from the Bay Area? Maybe you know him from the Mass. Deadhead scene. Tell him Frankie from NY is looking for him. He'll know. He can contact me at frankcoviello1999@yahoo.com Ciao...

We flew from LA to SF, as I was arriving to visit my cousin, Frank Cervarich, in Sausalito, having just turned 33 on Sept. 11...just as we arrived, you phoned with the kindest gift I've ever received, which I could not accept: a Backstage Pass to the Show...only one, so I just couldn't leave nanoseconds after arriving. But, I have never, never, never forgotten the thrill of that phone call and your kindness. Please email me, as I remember your company being so much fun on the flight. I've always wondered how my Life might have changed, had I just said, bubbye to my cousin, but I just couldn't do it to such a gracious host. Would love to return the favor as I can get you a Backstage Pass for Keller...do hope our paths cross sometime, as I still love seeing Ratdog and Phil and Mickey when I can and follow Jambands such a Keller, SCI and Leftover and Umphreys, Tealeaf Green and others. Hugs to you, Kind Jill, wherever you are...hope Life has been Good to you. I'm still in Dallas, if you are ever this way., or maybe at one of the many Festivals I love attending. Peace & Love, 99

I wish to Inform the Deadhead community that my Best Friend in the entire world as passed and any fellow heads that would know him (and there were many, many heads)should know that this happened, particularily Tony in Portland that i do not know how to contact but I saw at the 2004 show there with the Dead. Andy was a model deadhead in his belief system or principals. Jerry would of have been proud to call him friend , he never wanted to be a typical fan or hassle anyone at anytime. He was my music partner we went to so many shows together , the ones on my profile is a small sampling. His knowledge of the music and the Dead plus numerous other band community was like a library of knowledge , The vault people could of used Andy. The following is his Obit and the DEADHEADS worldwide weather you knew him or not, should heed to his passing. His story is 30 years plus and amazing. It would take more space than I'm provided to tell the story from beginning to end. I have been given his music collection , which is quite extensive in tapes as well as CD's , Probably more than 3000 pieces or more. I will be cataloging this collection of live shows and all. The following is the OBIT , My Tears have flown for three days now since I found out. Yesterday was the big day for the furneral and being with his family. I have known Andy since we were 15 years old. John Andrew "Andy" Vojtko John Andrew "Andy" Vojtko of Libertyville Visitation for John Andrew "Andy" Vojtko, 45, will be from 1 p.m. until the time of the services at 2 p.m. Saturday, June 28, at Holy Cross Lutheran Church, 29700 N. St. Mary's Road, Libertyville, with Pastor Robert Davis officiating. Born Aug. 18, 1962, in Libertyville, he passed away Wednesday, June 25, 2008. Andy had lived in the Libertyville-Mundelein area all his life. He was a 1980 graduate of Libertyville High School, received an associates degree from the College of Lake County and attended Illinois State University. He was a charter member of Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Libertyville and was employed as a cook at Winchester House for many years. Andy enjoyed music, model trains, the outdoors, various pets and cooking. Surviving are his parents, Gerald and Delores Vojtko of Libertyville; two sisters, Jane (Charles) Binning of Cornville, Ariz. and Lynne (Darren) Rogers of Wauconda; and his favorite nephew and niece, Ethan and Brianna Rogers. Memorial contributions can be made to your favorite charity. Arrangements were made by Burnett-Dane Funeral Home, Libertyville, 847-362-3009. Published in the Chicago Suburban Daily Herald on 6/27/2008.

Hey Scott! where are you? It's me~ Debbie with the 2 b's! I hope you're okay! It's been almost twenty years! Can you believe it?! I still have the t-shirt you made me! I miss you! I also want to thank the people who helped me out when my car broke down back in Columbus, I think you were all OSU students, living in a frat house (back in 1990, I think). We listened to Dead music all night until the tow truck guy came at eight in the morning! I never got a chance to thank you and I didn't get any of your names! I don't remember much except for someone eating a burrito at six in the morning and something about a dog and one of you was taking a class in photography! You were the one who waited up with me :) Thanks again!
