TIM CHANEY BIRTHDAY DEDICATION-Meet us at the station!

A respected blog friend named Tim Chaney has passed. I re-dedicate this post to him. See you at Terrapin Station. You can now kick it with Jerry!

Again I repost because I had Tim on my mind thinking August and Tim...I am a couple of days late...people in my life hold memory and connections in my mind. August and Tim...I felt you. Peace my Kindred blogger!

My bags are packed in my soul for the day I get on that train to Terrapin.

I tell you when the window appears on the seaches, there is a burst of color and beautiful psychellic art and hard to choose which to post! 
Inspired by a blog I follow "Blast From The Past-Blowin' In The Wind"  [link here] 

These guys are so cute!

 I GIMP'd it with a sheet of
Orange Sunshine LSD with Tim Leary signature





This and the following




There is an art venue called "Blotter Art"
spawned of course from LSD art.
The source is marked on the pic.  



I like how busy this is
You can take time
finding things.


Ticket and "Silky" for Jerry's Last Concert
I lived in Vegas then they were at
Sam Boyd that year. Didn't go.
Saw all the Dead Heads in town.
I went to see The Dead in 1978 in Madison, Wisconsin.  

I always thought their music a bit mellow for the imagery of a skull and all.  
I guess ya gotta be there to know it.  Hearing it for the first time in a long time.  Makes me feel young and strangely wanting a Suburbia Submarine Sandwich from a place I worked around that time frame.  OH now typing it I am thinking of  the Pepsi Pepsi Gyro Pepsi guys at the Gyro place I ate my first Gyro.  Authentic Greek guys.  On State Street in Madison, Wisconsin.

In 1977 ish  actually owned a copy of Skeletons In The Closet and it was a special yellow vinyl edition.  I liked the art is why I bought it.  


I really admire how the Dead Heads followed the band.  

The pictures are mostly from Wolfgang's Vault. These were printed as posters and playbills back in the day.

Tim was a wonderful human being and they are few and far between. I feel blessed to have been able to call him friend...
