I'd just like to say thanks to everyone for the great time I had at Farm Aid this year. The biggest thanks to Dr.Concert for getting the tickets. Then to Deb for putting together the Max and Erma dinner. It was so nice to have the chance to meet so many Rusties and trade stories. What a great bunch of people to be with! I'm already looking forward to the next time.

Hi All,

I'm a fan who was trying to get ONE ticket to the Saturday BSB this
morning from TicketMaster online (all my friends all think top 40 is
cool and they are obviously stupid). Anyway, after the usual
runaround, I got offered a seat at the very back of the 200s like row
V, just in front of the Lawn. I was pretty shocked that all the
seats in front would be totally gone in like 2 seconds, but I figured
that the amazing lineup probably accounted for that.

I declined since I didn't want to sit all the way in the back (and it
is a 6 hour drive to the show). But I tried back for a better seat
a little while later and got one in the 200s row G, which I bought.

After looking on Ebay at all the ticket broker slime, it appears that
*nobody* got any seats in the 100's. Does anybody know what's up
with that? Perhaps this is standard stuff; I'm a BSB newbie
(although I've always wanted to go!)

Thanks!

No! Not on the Sunday morning that Bridge tickets go on sale!

Network still down at 9:56.

Jim,

I admire your sense of humor and resolve. I would not have been able to have calmed down enough to write a post so soon after the trauma if I had gone through what you did this morning. I would still be punching the walls out.

BSB 2001 blues

I had some ticket panics. I went online at 10 AND got on my cell phone to ticketbastards(tb) at the same time to insure I scored one pair of tickets. My computer crashed in the midst of my purchase online for lawn. All that was left on the phone were lawn. The online says if it crashes it dumps your purchase. Well guess what...

I got 2 pairs of tickets in the mail. So I call tb, they say rip up the tickets and mail em back. I say ok. Then my friend says she has some friends that may want to go. I decide not to mail back the seats. Assuming tb won't credit the tickets till they get them back.

Duh!! We get there. They won't let 2 of us in, I've driven down from SAC. blah blah blah ..

I wind up getting to sit 2nd tier stage right of the sound board. About third row. Perfect view. Perfect sound. Altho' Shoreline sound is excellent anywhere. And yeh I felt guilty that my friend let me sit in the seat, but I got over it, kind of quickly actually ... ; >

My point .. Every cloud has a "silver and gold" lining. I'm sure you'll enjoy the show one way or the other.

Woke up this morning, turned the computer on . . . .
Clicked on the browser, "no server found."
Called my isp, heard a recording that "if you're on the west coast, the network is down, we're working on the problem. . ."

No! Not on the Sunday morning that Bridge tickets go on sale!

Network still down at 9:56.

Picked up the phone and started dialing our favorite ticket service. "All circuits are busy."

Strange feeling of deja vu. This is how I once bought tickets, back in the last century. It's been so long, I've become happily self-dependent on Internet ticket mechanisms. Struggling with them as they've gotten better over the years. Still a source of frustration, but nothing compared to having to explain over and over to some agent at Bass what date and show I wanted, while choice seats were disappearing.

Oh well. Fine. Hopefully Sheila will come through once again.

Long live the Bridge School!

Jerry Garcia Band - Union, NJ 2/28/80

This is the early show & is the only know recording (missing the first
song).

Send your mailing address.

Thanx guys!
I'm sorted!

Hi all-

Several years back I attended a Los Lobos show at a festival in
Pensacola, Florida. The band was scheduled for a 90 minute slot, but due
to another act cancelling their set, Los Lobos played a blistering 180
minute show. They closed with a "Cinnamon Girl" encore.

I'm after a nicely recorded Los Lobos show where they performed this
song (preferably soundboard or DAT audiience).
If anyone can help I will happily trade.

Many thanks!

Just won some Springsteen in Miami tickets on eBay. The auctioneer will ONLY mail to a US address.
Would someone be willing to accept them to they're address and then forward them to me in UK.
I would of course pay for postage - or compensate with a couple of shows on CDR.

Thanx in advance,

Rob H

Subject: Sound quality of TOTW tree: 1/15/73

I don't know, folks. I got my copy yesterday, and was inspired to put it on
after Neil's set at Farm Aid tonight. I'm seven songs into it now and VERY
pleased. It's clean of clicks and pops, and I think the sound quality is
quite good for a 1973 audience recording. Maybe I haven't reached the noise
problem that's caused the controversy, or maybe I'm just not enough of an
audiophile to notice it.<<<<<<<<<<<<

Where is this alleged noise, anyway? I just listened to this again all
the way through, and I didn't hear any problems.

Rusties!

So I come home from a very long but awesome Paul McCartney concert Saturday night/Sunday morning (he apparently played "She's Leaving Home" for the first time live...ever?) only to wake up in the morning and find that my VCR did NOT tape Farm Aid as I programmed it to. In fact, it didn't tape at all.

So I missed my annual dose of Farm Aid. Does anyone know if they re-boradcast the show? If not, is there any chance someone could hook me up with a (VHS!!) copy for B&P??

Thanks! Looking forward to hearing more stories!

Hi all...while i too hate the ticket monopoly i've used them a lot online...while they rip u for a "convenience charge" i've almost always been able to get tix to events i wanted...it's now 11:50 AM Pacific time and i went to see if i could get tix to bsb and they were still available (lawn only). I can't go this year. Also, given my expeerience buying Stones tix for their San Diego and Anaheim shows, they release seats for sale in a dribble out fashion...ya just gotta keep checking...I ended up with good floor seats for Stones in San Diego weeks after they went on sale! Sometimes when they go to process, someone's credit card doesn't authorize and that might be one source of the added availablility of tix on top of what they hold back...so, the moral is....KEEP TRYING.

Brian...trying to make slacking a respectable profession.

hey rusties,

Caught my first Farm Aid yesterday. Amazing. I can't
believe I saw Willie and Neil play together! Willie's
set after the cameras shut off was like nothing I've
ever seen. Anyone know what that crazy ass jam he did
was without any singing? Not the one that the outro
that the band played as he exited but the jam that he
did with the band. Gillian Welch just blew my mind.
That sound man should be shot for not having the
guitars up during I Want to Sing That Rock 'n' Roll
but it was cool to hear an acappella version. :) I
couldn't help but think of fRed Sun's post a few days
past about how lucky those going were to see Gillian
Welch and Neil on the same stage...then at the end
them singing near the same mike. Then she came out
and sang with Willie and the end! David Rawlings is
great. Kenny Wayne with Double f'in Trouble! I still
dislike Toby Keith more than I think I've ever
disliked an artist, but he song about smokin' weed
with Willie was funny, especially with Willie playing
on it! I was moved by Dave Matthews. So freaking
good. Any ideas as to why John Mayer was on the back
of one of the shirts? Was he supposed to play and
backed out?

I was just looking on Usenet on the bootlegs newsgroup
and there's a dude who got all the satellite feed of
all the artists who played uninterrupted. Any Rusties
get this? If so, I'd love to trade, and I'll spread
it as far as I can. Any audio tapers get great
audience recordings? Please pardon my enthusiasm, but
if I was any happier or excited about how good
yesterday was I'd be twins! :)

Well, gotta go shower and get cleaned up to go see
Willie again tonight at Penn State. Any Rusties
going? Anyone going with a recorder...? :0

Always your pal,
Adam!

Nice, almost three hour show.
The sing alongs were pretty cool with the sell-out crowd.

I noticed they had some nice big pro mics up on stands at the front of the soundboard.
They must be taping all the shows???

Thanks to all of you kind rusties who explained why some of my VCD's would not play. Couple of consumer notes: Ed G stated the Apex-1200 works with all formats. Regretfully, no more--they discontinued VCD support on that model a month ago. I wound up keeping the 3rd DVD player I bought. The Panasonic RV32 works great w/all my VCD's. At $109 at Circuit City, the price was not bad. I found alot of helpful info at www.vcdhelp.com

Thanks again for everyone's expertise,
Stuart

Can anyone please direct me to artwork for the recently treed CSN&Y
TOTW 7/9/74 Seattle set?

Thanks,
John E.

hello rustworld,
well, every year bridge time rolls around and I get the screwjob once again. This makes four years in a row. The first ear I tried calling and I was calling the number that 411 gave me and it turned out it was a carpet wharehouse, the second year I waited in line for about 8 hours and when ticket time came the screen froze up, the third year I paid for someone else's ticket by mistake, and now this year, I went three days ago and asked the guy who would be running the tickets for bridge at my local tower if they would do a lottery and he said that there was no way around it this year and that there was no point in waiting in line. Then that bastard doesn't do a lottery and I get screwed again! I am telling you I am bridge cursed, I don't know what its going to take to get rid of this if there are any rusties who know of any voodoo to take off the curse please let me know. Also let me be the first to grovel for tickets. I really need three seats for saturday and one seat for sunday. I know this is a little early but if there is any kind soul who bought seats and is unsure of whether or not they will be going please keep me in mind. Thanks in advance
