I need a specific Lost Sailor/Saint of Circumstance

I used to have a show on tape years ago, and it is long gone. It had my favorite version of Lost Sailor and Saint of Circumstance. I believe Lazy lightning came right before or possibly after. It has been rolling through my head for days now, and I need to find it. During Lost Sailor, Bob asks, "Where do you want to go now, what do you want to do now?" Does anyone remember this, and what show it came from? Thanks!

check out the selection in the Vineyard. I have been here since were were vining (sending concert CD's to one another to rip and burn and pass along) and I have not gotten any viruses or problems with this process. You can find JGB, Phil & Friends, RatDog, and all manners of transportive aural Dead (and other) music for the cost of mailing ($2 and up). Check it out, you will be glad you did!

New

I am 30 years old but unfortunately new to really listening to the dead. I was wondering where to get some taper style dead. I am looking for something I can get without having to worry about viruses or preferably not torrent. I would appreciate any suggestions including continuations (i.e. Phil & Friends, J.G. Band). Thanks

Extended-long Not Fade Away - Goin Down The Road segue

The NFA - GDTR segue on "Grateful Dead" is from (I believe) a show in 1971 at the Manhatten Center. The CD (even the bonus CD in the box set) has a version that cuts off right after Goin Down The Road wraps up, but I have heard a version that continues, in a much slower pace, for another 2 - 3 minutes, then segues back into Not Fade Away. Does anyone either know, definitively, where I can find that "extended long" version, or know of a site that I could query to try to get to the bottom of it?

100 dead songs poster

Thanks to all who have reponded so far. I still don't have 100 but I at least have Spider Gawd. I was keeping it to just Dead songs and not the solo stuff but it is the only thing that fits. Thanks again. Maybe together we can all solve this thing. Dadhead

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.

Looks like that chunk of 5/22 is Dicks 3

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!
