Hey there, brothers and sisters!
I'm a newbie here, from Bellingham, Washington, looking forward to chatting it up with my beloved fellow Deadheads.
A good friend, also from here in Bellingham, recommended this online community to me, perhaps you know him, though I can't remember his screen name. He's from St. Louis, Missouri originally.
I don't get out to shows much these days, cuz I have a kid who's my priority right now. The last Dead-related show I was able to catch was the May 2009 Doobies-Allmans-Dead show at The Gorge Amphitheater. It was a glorious day!
But, then I saw the Furthur TRI Studios show online and was BLOWN.AWAY!!! Best post-Jerry incarnation, by far, even without Billy and Mickey. (Sorry if that rubs some folks wrong.)
Anyway, since I can't get to shows very often, it will be nice to have this forum as a way to stay connected to the scene.
Peace to y'all!
Welcome to you and I think our beloved "Bilbo" is the guy from Bellingham you are referring too. There is a back yard show coming up for you on the fall West Coast tour should be worth while if you can swing it.
Anyhow welcome
