Dave's Pick(s)

Similar to the Road Trips, any chance Dave's Picks show up on ITunes? I'm late to the party. Hope to start with 24 and the subscription for 2018. Would love a chance to grab some of the previous releases. Same question regarding the 30 trips box. Would be great to have access to them as well. Thanks.

Archived Tapers Section access

I paged back within the Tapers Section this morning, looking for a features from October 2009: the chronological order goes wacky before 2011. Is there some way to find the older selections?I refererenced this index to find and listen to parts of the 10/19/80 show. https://archive.org/post/336569/deadnet-tapers-section-chronological-in…

this is a known issue

which is being addressed as time permits. I'll ask how it's going. Thanks!

How about a topic of Kindness?

Hey now, Just received the help needed.I asked for an act of Kindness, I lost my Dave's Picks 24, I request help, 2 members helped me out, and in return I helped them back. This is great, now would like to see a Pay It Forward, or an act of "Are You Kind" only topic.

we do have that, sorta

Try the Help on the Way thread: http://www.dead.net/forum/help-way And well done to helpful folks everywhere.

Are you Kind?

Marye, Help on the way ! Fantastic, I will do that right now,Thank you.

Suggestion for where to post

Hi there- New to Dead.net, got an idea how to navigate, but could use some assistance finding the best place to post a request for assistance on a project. I am producing a photo book on the closing of Winterland. I am seeking fellow Deadheads who were at the show to share their stories for inclusion in my book. Where might be the best place to get a request like that seen? I have an email account where people can reach me for more details and to communicate about the project. Thanks for your assistance. Jarid

this actually has pretty good visibility

but send me a PM if you don't hear from folks. I myself was not there so I have no tales!

yes, help please- where did…

yes, help please- where did the "my shows" tab go?
thanks Lance

My Shows

got derailed in the transition. We're aware of this and working on it. Thank you!

track function?

When you click on a user (by the way, clicking on user not functional from every thread as it had been on prior site), the track function is no longer available. Any thoughts about bringing this function back so we can track a user's posting activity history?

November 30 Days of Dead Free Downloads

access to database

Hi,

I am a software engineer experimenting with some data visualization technics. I would love to get a copy of the show database to experiment with. This is not for any commercial purpose and I'm happy to open source any resulting visualizations.

Does anyone know where I might get a copy of the show DB?

thanks,
Joshua

I would suggest

contacting the DeadBase folks.

GD Covers Contest or Exposition

Hi Mary, I recently read about a contest or exposition of Grateful Dead covers by other bands. I couldn't find any detail anywhere. Nor can I find the original source. Have you heard anything? Was I just hallucinating?

Thanks! Jim G

Maybe the Dead Covers Project?

Which should be coming around again soonish, but meanwhile, here's the DCP from earlier this year: http://www.dead.net/features/dead-covers-project-2018/dead-covers-project-2018

My Shows

Still aware that it isn't here and still working on it? It's a shame that the new "crack team" of web designers were so easily outdone by their grandfathers.

Um, Can these possibly be replanted?

3/25/1972 setlist corrections

I have 2 corrections for 3/25/72

1. I've Seen Them All is in between I'm A Man and Jam - Dick's Picks #30

2. Following the Lovelight was a Casey Jones which ended the show - I was there. They launched into Casey Jones just as the final notes of Lovelight faded.

hi is it possible to search…

hi is it possible to search through registred users? to send a message to someone?

yes and no

There is no user search function. However, if you start a message and type in a likely name it will present you with a lot of options. This only helps if you sorta know the name they're going by. The flip side of this is getting friend requests on FB from people you have no idea who they are and they're all "Hey, it's me, HippyDude!"

Licensing images for use

Hi - Long time fan, first time caller. I am looking for direction. Specifically, I am building a boat, and I am planning on sailing it around the world. I'd like to use modified versions of GD iconography/images. I want to do it on the up & up- and would like to acquire rights to do so. Initially, I do not view this as a commercial endeavor, but eventually there may be some commercialization.

Does anyone have contact info for the licensing people that I would need to contact?

Sailing

let me see what I can find out.

Buying Digital Downloads From Amazon In Europe

Hi,
I dunno it this is the right place to post this.

I live in France. I want to buy Ladies & Gentlemen The Grateful Dead as a digital download. I look on Amazon France but they don't have it listed so I can't buy it there.

I go to Amazon UK, find it, put it in my basket & then try to buy it with my UK credit card. It is refused. I ask Amazon UK why, & they explain it's because my UK credit card has my French address.

OK, I talk to my daughter who has a credit card with an English address. She tries to order it, & on the product listing it says "This product is not available for your device" because her phone is in Beijing, though her bank is in UK.

So why do Amazon France sell some Dead recordings but not others which are readily available on Amazon UK, Amazon Germany, Amazon Spain (I just checked) ? & how do I get a copy of Ladies & Gentlemen The Grateful Dead living in France?

Dave's Picks #23 SOLDOUT - sucks

Yes. I read email and then tried to order. SOLD OUT. Guess what... There are scalpers on Ebay laughing all the way to the bank at deadheads - or " stupid hippies " as MADDOGG138 - seller on EBAY called them. He admitted he doesn't care - here to make a lot of money off his many copies. They are getting way more than the original price. Why are the Dead limiting the number of copies? They tried to stop ticket scalpers years ago but now help the cd scalpers along. I was disappointed when the band started raising money for politicians etc and even more let down by the cd situation. Lost most interest in the current band.

Sure must be a popular show

By the time I read my gmail from dead.net, Dave's #23 was sold out. I was almost certain another show from early 1970 was going to be the Pick.

Question about guitar

Greetings, I have a Guild electric guitar (model S-300 D) that I purchased in 1995 on the big island of Hawaii. when I was doing some adjustments I discovered that it had written on the inside of the cover plate "Grateful Dead 10/7/1983" I'm wondering if there is a channel here to get some more info about this guitar's possible involvement with the Dead. Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you-Jay

Dead.net Store

Why has dead.net been selling the same lousy t-shirts for almost two years now? With all the great t-shirts (cotton only!) over the years you would think they'd have a better offering. How about a nice Jester t-shirt? Or a Blues for Allah? Maybe an original Skull and Roses made of cotton? As far as the selection goes for now, all I can say is: "What a waste."

30 Days Of Dead

Just wondering if any of the old 30 Days Of Dead songs are archived anywhere on the website. I had a number of these backed up on another computer, which is--sadly--no longer with us, and all those MP3s have gone up along with it. I found the link to the 2016 30 Days Of Dead MP3s in the Almanac, but what about the previous years? I've been collecting them for the last 5 years I've been a member of this site, so that's something like 120 Days Of Dead gone.

cool

maybe a cacheing issue, though I'm guessing.
