We're always glad to be of help to folks in the neighborhood. Here's an e-mail from a reader who'd like to connect with someone who lives in the Chelsea.
I was walking west on 23rd Street yesterday (10/25) whistling along with a recording on my iPod of an amazing “Shakedown Street” from the Grateful Dead’s 10/25/79 show, and a blonde woman turned around a few times and looked at me. I thought she was going to tell me to stop whistling, but instead she asked if I was whistling Shakedown Street. (That surprised me; usually my whistling is unrecognizable.) She said something about seeing a Shakedown at Ventura in 1986 or 1987 (it was 1987 and I was also there). The woman exchanged waves with the guy closing Chelsea Guitars for the day, and turned into the Chelsea Hotel. I asked “do you live here” and she said “yes.”
If you recognize yourself, please contact this guy via Craigslist.
