Leanne, iknowurider, invited me to join in here, because she was moved by the story, I wrote to introduce myself to the people on this website. Now with no posts in here, I get the impression that it might be wrong/useless to post something here. But well, I just don't know and will send it, anyway. It is 2am over here and I need to take a nap, before I have to get up again. I am a native German, so all this ain't my mother's tongue. My English is not that bad and I am aware that these vineyards are about trading. But I don't know if it is only about trading Dead music, because then I would have only little to give. Except some 20 official GD (it don't like shortcuts, especially those I don't understand. while downloading like mad since friday afternoon, I already found out about a few) CDs, there is about 1,000 others on my shelves. So please tell a rookie, what this is all about and what to do, to get the landscape between my ears filled up with Acid Test music. andré

Sign up and in due course it will arrive in your mailbox. (Or not, as the case may be, as there are occasional postal mishaps, but because of the nature of all this what happens then is going back up the vine and re-sending.) Then pass it on to the next person on the list and listen to your heart's content!

You need to send a private message to the person ahead of you on the list. Include your mailing address in the PM so we know where to send the discs. Once you receive them and copy them, send the originals on to the next person on the list. Peace, Richard

I have to say, I can not believe the people who have never heard of the Acid Tests, Tom Wolfe's excellent books, or the Merry Prankster. For some reason, I thought reading ECAT was a right of passage for teenagers. Man, I'm glad to know ya'll! Thanks

Sounds like some kind of exam, like a test, yeah a test for heads.Read it about the same time as I got in to the Dead, 16yo in 1972, read it three times back to back. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

I know it will be a while, and I have the time to wait, but I am getting laid off from my job for medical reasons and I do not know if I will be able to handle being responsible for the vine, so I need to bow out of this one. I will sign-up again if I am able to pass it along.Thanks!

On February 6th, 2008 Hal R said: "Sent to Ltapilot today." On February 16th, 2008 Ltapilot replied,: "as of February 16, this vine has not arrived at my mail box." So HalR lets give the post office a few more days then I can burn a new set and send it along. i was the original viner of these, the shows were posted at the same time as "Pig Pen Bring Me My Shot Gun" with the same first five participants. Peace Rick

I sent the shows, don't know what has happened. Hope they arrive soon. The weather here was awful for most of early February, could that have caused a delay? 10 days is too long. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

But looking at the posts above I guess they should have arrived at Richard's place. And as Richard has both, Jeremy's and my, mailing addresses, we might have to wait a bit more until Richard's favorite post office has stopped shape shifting and stuff :+) andré

I sent jeremy a PM asking for his home address but have not heard back. I got his address from andre but am a little reluctant to send this vine to him unless I get a response.If I don't hear from him soon, I think I should skip him and send to chichi. Chichi, you might want to go ahead and send me a pm with your address. Jeremy, if you are out there, drop me a note. Peace, Richard
