This will be just a gathering to talk, reflect, take comfort in each other, and give a sense of closure for east coast heads. If other people are also gathering in the park, other groups show up, or the cancelled tribute goes on, we'll converge. The time is loose, all day, though from 4 to 8 p.m. would be a good time since that was when the official gathering was planned but was recently cancelled by the mayor of new york. Email me for more information and to put yourself on a list that I'll try to update on such short notice (horus@netaxs.com). Please, come clean and peacefully, and don't do anything that would aggravate officials, police, etc, that might be around. If anyone is interested in helping organize this quickly, please email me, especially if you know the nyc area and central park. Spread the word around to all your friends! FYI, apparently the tribute planned for saturday (8/19) was cancelled friday by the mayor of new york city because they did not have $100,000 to spend (apparently on police and such), and they feared drug use. This is just rumored, and is unconfirmed, and obviously and hopefully could change. Call 212-788-9600 to reach the mayor's office, press "1" for english, then "0" for a secretary, and politely state that you are opposed to the cancellation of the tribute show and would like to see it continue. She's keeping a tally of all such calls. We feel that we don't need to spend any money to gather together for support. We've done far more with much less in the past - we don't need money. And we'll be coming clean, and peacefully, to remember Jerry. Remember, let's make Jerry proud of this. We have to continue sharing his spirit and his love. Let's not see anything Saturday that will remind us of this past tour and all it's troubles. We'll come with LOVE, PEACE, and with FRIENDS, and, if you can muster it, SMILES and HUGS... we have a reputation to carry on in Jerry's name...

Enter at 5th Avenue just below 86th street. Follow the path marked with red ribbons to the music tent with a Grateful Dead flag and hang. Bring water, hugs, and smiles, and anything else to get you through the day. Bring trash bags, don't litter, help each other out. Apparently strawberry fields is not a good idea to go to, and same with the sheep meadow - we don't want to disturb others, and there may be lots of people showing up. Another update: apparently the mayors office has had calls in the thousands? I'm gonna call alot of places now and will post more info in an hour or so. Stay tuned. I'm assuming anyone feel free to bring musical instrumetns, drums, music, etc. We have to be courteous of others, though, and not get carried away. I don't think it should be too much of a problem, but some wild things that go on in the lots should not happen here. The last thing we need is to get stampeded out by the NYC police. This is very important, we don't need any more bad press, so watch out for each other. Any suggestions? Mail me, I'm gonna be in front of this computer all day and on the phone. Gonna call up local radio stations, spread the word to your friends, gotta reach people off of the net. Any ideas for other ways to remember Jerry? I figure everyone can bring something they'd like to say, read, memories, or anything. Ideas still being worked on. Eric Vandercar (ericv@morgan.com) has done most of this planning, we were unaware that his group was working on this, but were hoping others were in the works, so this is great! :) And say thanks to Josh for doing the setup and planning, he says.
