Okay, shark...you're gonna laugh...

Since this was clearly a Stump the Experts question, I asked Blair Jackson, who said: >It's a David Grisman mandolin overdub...

live at keystone second guitar player

ok so there's clearly a second guitar player on the Live At Keystone Vol. 1 Disc, especially the tune 'Positively 4th Street'. He/She/It even takes a solo around the 5 minute mark. who the heck is it?

UK shows, dates?

I think I attended four in all.... Two at Wembley Conference Centre, London, in the early 1990s. One at the Rainbow, Finsbury Park, London. One at a venue near the Aldwych, London, but I cannot remember the name of the theatre. If anyone has got any info about the London shows... Thanks

Terrapin Station Hotel

I don't know where this should go, but does anyone have any info on the Terrapin Station Theater, Hotel and eatery that was going to be built by the band? I remember that there used to be a website link for it on here way back when. I found some info on the internet about it, but not it's demise or postponement.

? jerry sings bobby's cowboy songs at what show

trying to find an awesome show I'd never heard until I was in a bar a while back and the kitchen staff had taken control of the music. there was a show they were playing from the late 70's or maybe 1980 from florida where Jerry was singing all of Bobby's cowboys songs and it was cool as hell. I've forgotten the show and am really itching to get ahold of it some how. need to know what specific show it was to find it though. thanks guys

I'm Looking For...

Trivia questions, who wrote that song, when was the last time the Dead played Deer Creek, etc.

I'm working on a project where I want to attempt to archive Grateful Dead bootleg lot shirts. I would like to create a print publication as well as a website celebrating the lot bootleg shirt. I would also like to document the stories and lore behind the shirts. I would love to hear any stories about anyone funding their tour by selling shirts, stories from shirt creators, any crazy Dead bootleg story (favorite shirt, shirts tha led to introductions, crazy adventures, etc... Feel free to send me any pictures, stories, ideas, suggestions, etc.. Thanks! Peace.

Looking for a certain 1978 show with Sunrise > Estimated

A long, long time ago, when we listened to tapes, a friend of mine had this great show from (I think) May 1978. Here is what (I think) I remember:
Terrapin > Sunrise > Estimated, which were mind-blowing. Probably Donna's best Sunrise; will bring you to tears.
I'm fairly sure that Terrapin went straight in to Sunrise. But I'm sure that Sunrise went straight in to Estimated. I don't think it was edited that way.
They were playing these tunes a lot at that time, but I've combed through the archives and just can't locate a show with this sequence; my memories may be at fault.

Thanks!

In Deadbase X, the lists for all 30 Sunrises:
5-12-77 Estimated>Sunrise>Terrapin
5-22-77 Good Lovin'>Sunrise>Estimated
1-11-78 Samson>Sunrise>Terrapin
4-11-78 Fire>Sunrise>Terrapin
That's all that have either an Estimated or a Terrapin on either side.
So maybe that 5-12-77?
Cheers

May 22 1977

Hey 1st Show!

Thanks for the assist; May 22 1977 is the one. Listening to it right now. You know what's wrong with that show? NOTHING! ;-) Many of the tunes played that night are easily top picks for me.

I love that one. May have to sneak that in today too.

Does anyone have contact…

Does anyone have contact information for the photographer who was shooting family portraits at Laguna Seca in 1988? Today my daughter, who was three years old at those shows, mentioned that the post-show scene at those gigs is one of her earliest memories. I’d love to get a print of the photo that was taken by that photographer. Thanks!
