Ahhhh ... memories Those would ALWAYS be intense series in the past. I'm sure it'd live up to expectations still. Always despised the Bruins. The only thing good about the Boston Gahden was getting to see the Dead in there a bunch of times

another Turd Period comeback? wtf? The only thing predictable is Coliacovo getting hurt

Damn ... having to lie down on the CZ floor?! That's punishment and torture in itself. Gross! Hope they all got hosed down and get some antibiotics to fight whatever heebeegeebees they picked up of the ground

NICE GOAL ... from the icing line (at the other end of the rink!*&^(!) Holy Shit That was one BOUNCY puck.

March 17, 2003 Dubya announces the invasion: President Bush speaks from the White House on March 17, 2003. Bush delivered an ultimatum to Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, giving him 48 hours to leave the country. Five years pass and Iraq is worse than ever and there's no proof that the world is a "safer" place. I just watched the documentary "No End In Sight" last night. It was FANTASTIC!!! In a very concise and comprehensible way, it reveals a lot about how the whole Iraq/Afghanistan situation exploded, was ill-maintained, and still fuckin' up today. Catch it on Newsworld replay if you can; http://www.cbc.ca/passionateeyesunday/feature_160308.html

No sign yet that this is a "limited run" like the 1969 box set. By limiting it it will simply encourage it getting up on a torrent that much faster Rhino does quite a lot of these limited boxes and they end up being worth a lot. I want a copy of the 4-CD Aretha Franklin @ Fillmore West box set (i've got the 2-CD and it kicks ASS!) http://www.rhinohandmade.com/browse/ProductLink.lasso?Number=7890

This one has been rumoured for a few years now at least. David Gans sent out an email yesterday saying that there was a page on dead.net that hadn't gone live yet. Then it was taken down. Now it's official: http://dead.net/features/release-info/wait-over-winterland-1973-box-has-arrived Sherman, set the Wayback machine for the second week of November, 1973. The Grateful Dead are on a roll…yes, again! The summer had seen the band playing triumphant mega-shows with the Allman Brothers at RFK Stadium in D.C. and at Watkins Glenn in upstate New York. With their popularity seemingly still escalating by the month, fall tours took them to various East Coast haunts and all over the Midwest. On October 15, they released Wake of the Flood, their first album on their own independent record label, and copies were flying out of stores coast to coast. So the mood in the band was WAY UP when their incredibly busy schedule brought them home for three shows at Winterland in San Francisco November 9, 10 and 11—before they set off again for points East. Winterland always brought out the best—and the beast—in the band. Located across Geary Boulevard from the Fillmore Auditorium, the one-time home of the Ice Follies had hosted dozens of amazing rock shows since Bill Graham started putting on shows there in the late ’60s. It’s where the top tier of Bay Area bands would get together occasionally for marathon shows, and it’s where the most popular out-of-town acts—from The Doors, to Hendrix, to The Who, to the Rolling Stones—would play in the era before faceless sports arenas became an unfortunate fact of concert-going life. But nobody played Winterland as often as the Dead. By the time they’d trucked their ever-expanding sound system to the venue for their November ’73 shows, they’d already logged 31 concerts there—and there would be another 28 eventful Dead nights at Winterland before the old place was closed after the Dead’s New Year’s Eve show in 1978, and eventually reduced to rubble to make way for condos. Sure, the 5,000-capacity hall was acoustically challenging and a little frayed on the edges. But with its narrow open floor, shallow lower balcony that encircled the entire venue, its deeper back balcony chill zone, and serpentine walkways between floors, it was a tremendously fun and entertaining place to see a show—especially a Dead show. Winterland 1973: The Complete Recordings captures the Dead during one of their peak years and absolutely at the top of their game. Spread over nine discs, it includes every note of three complete consecutive shows (save for the encore of November 9, which was not recorded), so there’s plenty here to satisfy every fan: magnificent jams on “Dark Star†(which sprawls to 35 completely compelling minutes!), “Playing in the Band,†“Eyes of the World,†the still-new “Weather Report Suite†and more; kick-ass rockers of every variety (“Sugar Magnolia,†“Casey Jones,†“Johnny B. Goode,†“Truckin’,†et al); haunting ballads including “China Doll,†“Stella Blue†and “To Lay Me Downâ€; a truly spectacular “China Catâ€; and the first of just three versions ever of the dazzling sequence of “Playing in the Band†> “Uncle John’s Band†> “Morning Dew†> “Uncle John’s†reprise > “Playing†reprise. (For a complete listing of the contents of the nine discs, go here.) All the music here was drawn from Grateful Dead crew member Kidd Candelario’s crystal clear and wonderfully present 2-track soundboard reels of the shows, and enhanced by the mastering work of the always reliable sonic wizard Jeffrey Norman, who used all sorts of arcane processes to bring it all into the glorious world of HDCD sound. This stuff will rattle your bones! The beautifully designed box also comes with a colorful booklet containing scads of great photos and a fine essay by Grateful Dead historian Dennis McNally. For a limited time, too, if you order the Winterland 1973 box through dead.net, we’ll also send you a special BONUS DISC of previously uncirculated material recorded a few weeks later, at Cincinnati Gardens on December 4, 1973. Good stuff, we assure you! We like to think of Winterland 1973 as being part of the noble tradition established by the ecstatically received Fillmore West 1969: The Complete Recordings, and as a precursor for other complete-run boxes to come. So clear out a chunk of space in the ol’ CD case, ’cause this mutha’ is a BIG ONE! Don’t delay! You can order Winterland 1973: The Complete Recordings right now by clicking here !

And to give you a little glimpse of what Winterland was like, check out this video montage with audio from the ’73 shows and visuals from The Grateful Dead Movie, shot at Winterland a year later!)

I'm craving a beer right now

did you move to a place where snow falls or something? i thought you were in toronto. Nope, i'm a little further west in Oakville. Been getting a little bit more here as we're closer to that snow belt that rips through Buffalo/Hamilton We've driven home and literally hit a wall of snow a couple of times when we get to the edge of Mississauga and Oakville Hey, if I can get a snowblower it will ensure that it won't snow much anymore

It's repeated a few times tonight. I've got it recording in the middle of the night sometime. Look forward to watching this one.

This is why ALL taxes from cigarette sales should be funneled into the health care system (same goes for alcohol). On the same method, ALL taxes from gasoline sales for cars, etc. should be utilized for road repair, construction, public transit, and all other transportation infrastructures. NewRider, you are a "model smoker" showing that you are doing what you can to ensure that others aren't bothered by your smoking. Good on ya, more people should act like you. I do agree with you that it is your choice and that nobody should bother you since you are complying with all the regulations regarding smoking. Same goes for drinkers ... drink all you want, just don't get behind the wheel, or puke on anyone and you're good to go

I've officially hung up my shovels. Fuck that, i'm letting the Spring sun do it all for me now Anyone got a snowblower for me for next winter?

Smoke 'em if you want to ... Lung cancer kills more women than breast, ovarian and uteran cancers combined http://www.smokingisugly.com If/when you're ready to do it, seriously try to quit.

Best bet is to combine all tracks/files into ONE compressed file (zip/RAR/etc). Then, upload that one archive file to SS.

Hahaha ... i think that was supposed to be in purple; [color:purple]H: I wish I played in Ottawa P: Me too
