    and,
    (sorry, but just to conclude, phew...). who were trying to get a girlfriend inside. I've driven lost Heads home to Connecticut. I've let unknown Heads sleep on the floor of hotel rooms. ALTHOUGH ALL OF THIS IS TO BE TAKEN IN THE SINCERETY FULLY FELT, PLUS THE GOOD HUMOR IN WHICH IT IS INTENDED,... Lastly, no, absolutely not, I have never been behind closed doors. Yes, Jerry was a friend since I first met him in Denver in 1979, on the day following 3-nights at Red Rocks. Yes, this got me backstages. Have a great day, everybody!

    An Appology
    I have just happened to come-upon these older posts re my having hoped for future Halloween NYC shows, and are seeing it all for the first time.Although "way late," I have just stumbled upon this page after such a long period in time. I am mortified at having had offended so many fellow heads with what had begun in honest humor by me, and was wrapped-up with some babbled-about crap thrown in by some (goofing on me, but really decent, really good people) Head friends hanging out at the time. Please believe that (& although I can only speak for myself herein, I feel quite sure also on behalf of the couple others -who I left a phone message about it this morning)... that absolutely no public nor privately personal offense was intended towards ANYONE at all, nor towards any (& I can see as interpretatively and fully sterotyped) groups of people, whether they be of any points of varied socio-economic backgrounds, occupations, or of any points along the mid-stream, or in it's reverse, whether they be of good hearts or not, whether they be 'up on their luck' or 'down on their luck,' and or of any other conceivably mixed extremes within our humanity. Please accept this as a blanket apology to all readers. I, and we, thank you for all of your hoped courtesies towards us, towards our poor wordings, phrasings, and any other offending segment(s) of it all. I can only say, in reflection, when I had my 21st birthday on Halloween with the Dead at Radio City here in NYC, it was the most exhilarating night that I ever had, and I hoped to Heaven that it would never, ever end. In brief response to the other questions and/or raised,: like one responder, either above or below, I have had ample personal experience within the walls and halls of Wall St. and actually harbor a neutrality about it and towards much of it's historically classic structuring, and certainly towards large numbers of it's populate, including my lovable father, my "somewhat tolerable" brother, another, a very enjoyable DeadHead brother, and, of course, others. I recently spent some time Occupying the venerable Street. Yes, I confess to a built-in, born-with- it, Robin Hood- like nature, as does my huge- hearted mother, who can't bear to think of any sad, or left-out DeadHeads that get left out of a show just because they are not able to pay trumpted-up, scalpers' prices. Yes, I changed my driver's license a long time ago to authorize the donation of any or all of my organs for transplant (whether DeadHeads, a NYer, or not.) What else? I am a 7th generation NYer, and am now 53. Two separate times during multi-night strings at MadSqGdn, I gave away my only ticket(s) to DeadHeads that were hopelessly and desperately Once again, I humbly thank you, HalloweenDeadHead.
