JB - Huge favor to ask. Could you have Arnie check out viewtopic.php?f=1&t=87543
and then check those 1394 shows to see if the history on an old @'75 or '76 Amarillo show date, set list, etc could be confirmed? Thanks for everything!

Hello Parrotheads !

Hope y'all had a good time this year, I know I did.

Sorry that some of y'all were unhappy with some of the setlists. We did try to mix it up a bit.

FYI...Arnie is no longer with the organization.

Time for a little R&R, and maybe a sip of wine or two.

See ya soon..

Fins Up !

JB
Well, I'm still here. Didn't have to go to rehab, and I'm not broke.

I'll bite! I have 3 kids (ages 7,4 & 2), so Santa is alive and well in my house. So I agree that this thread is Santa Jimmy for me.
Being a long time fan and raised on the music, it was truely the highlight of my year to see you in concert in Denver. And ABOUT TIME!!! The set list in Denver was perfect! All of it was great! Please please try to come to Red Rocks next year and hopefully you can hit a warm summer month so we can properly wear our grass skirts and coconut bras.
Also, I have to say you moved up 3 or 4 notches in my book at the Denver show when you made sure the little girl toward the front got one of your wristbands. My two oldest girls were crushed when they learned they would not be joining me for the concert. See, we have 30 minutes of car time every day and your music is always what gets played. They sing along verbatim to: Fins, JuicyFruit, Cheeseburgers and JollyMon. Even my 2 year old sits in back with a grin from ear to ear, clapping her hands and movin' to the music. Maybe sometime I will be able to get video of them and post it.
Thanks again for everything. RM plays in my office everyday and brings me joy especially when there is snow piled as tall as me outside my work windows.
Enjoy your R&R and I can't wait to see Red Rocks on the list when the tour dates are released for 2012.

Hey Jim, I was happy with the one GreatWoods show. I would have been happier with a second show but no big deal. I was happy with the set list, I was happy with all of the songs I have heard over & over again for all of the show's I've seen. I was happy with all of your covers that you like to play. Hell, you could cover lady gaga, brocollli spears or anybody else that I don't like to listen to and I'd be happy with it. Just remember to always include "BUT NOT YET" when you sing One Particular Harbor.
Thanks, see you in 2012!

Except this next time, don't bring the 17-year locust/cicadas out. Our 'tailgate' party was invaded by the durned critters and one went down my shirt and I popped a button getting that nasty thing out. :oops: 8)
The sound at the concert was 200% better than last year, it was AMAZING !!!
