I checked, and I was wrong: you DO need to create a separate account for the Store. Let me know if you have problems doing this.

2011 Road Trips Subscription Offer...

When does the subscription offer to 2011 Road Trips end? In other words, when do I have to get my payment in so I can take advantage of this offer?

I'll see what I can find out

and post here if the answer doesn't become really obvious in the meantime.

expiration info now posted

on the page. And, in other news, I am told that the tracks on the bonus disc will be unique to that disc and not repeated elsewhere.

Nothing but kind words for the store

Allis, I don't know if you're still 'here' but I bought the Texas Road Trips set and got the bonus disk. IIRC the second disk was a bad pressing. It looked like pretty swirly rainbow watercolors under the outer edge of the plastic and would only play the first half, then start to skip more and more until the poor CD player would completely lose the plot, give up and holler for its mama. Anyway! I called the customer service number and after one -- yes, one -- relatively brief and very polite conversation the folks shipped a new CD (not the whole set, darn it! :)) within a couple of days that was just exactly perfect. I do need to think a bit about the Road Trips subscription package but not because of any problems or concerns what-so-ever about the store or the staff. Scott

Prolonged Absences

Regine "Pegi", Prinzess of Hohenzollern (yeah, he wasn't lieing.It is me).Edelweiss. I am so glad to see contact from remainder of Grateful Dead in my mail. I always feel so much better when I put a Dead disc on the machine. But I haven't done it. I haven't done much of anything except keep my stepdad from dieing. Got six out of seven diabteoc wounds healed. Seems the loss of my "Baby Cats" took the heart out of me. Haven't been out to sing, haven't put a disc on to spin, haven't had music in my ears. Not except by default; an infomercial from the 60' & 70's which woke me up. Just not me anymore. Some things tear your heart out. It's happened too often. I'm exhausted. Am trying to do my new blog, http://prinzessinhohenzoller.blogspot.com but even that, I don't keep up. Except for Mannheim Steamroller found at the local Lowe's Hardware, haven't even thought about music. And before, I couldn't live a day without it. God the way things in this land are set up to destroy us. It's cheaper for them. Please keep sending the emails. I might reconnect with myself again. Love and Peace, Pegi Regine

Seeking a Shirt

Last summer I saw this guy wearing a shirt that said Grateful Dead AARP tour on it. It had a picture of a skeleton covered in roses using a walker. It also said something like "livin on meds vitamin C and Rogaine," A play on the line from Truckin. I've been looking for this shirt ever since. It would be perfect for my uncle! If anyone knows where to get one please please let me know!

you might also post this

in the In Search of Stuff topic.

.......?

What happened to the chat room? Did i miss something......? Can't seem to get in.... What a drag.

yeah, it is a drag

short version, Gagalive, where the chat room resided, vanished without warning. We'll try to find a reasonable substitute, but the tech guys are a little swamped right now so it may take a while.

30 days winner

i'm a 30 days winner and have not been contacted is there a number i can call or e-mail addy ? "kenacre was the first person to answer correctly and will get to pick a Road Trips of their choice. You will be contacted within 5 business days with instructions on how to get your prize" many thanks

kenacre

first of all check your spam folder. But if that doesn't work, send me a PM with the details and we'll straighten it out.

How Do I Listen To A Show?

I attended a few shows and want to listen to them. Can I do that?

not here.

but I believe most of them are streaming at archive.org. You might check the Tapers Section, updated weekly with new clips chosen by David Lemieux.

that is to say

the Tapers Section is here, but full streaming shows, generally speaking, are not.

Looking for a good breakdown

Looking for a good breakdown of 'who sang what'. Which songs are always Jerry, which are always Bobby? Etc. etc. Any sort of master list you could guide me to? Any info is appreciated.

Search within this site for The Band

Here's a link to Music by Jerry, under the heading "The Band. http://www.dead.net/musicby/Jerry+Garcia Doodle around for the music by Bob, Phil, Vince and Brent. I see "Passenger" is listed under Phil, although Donna, then Brent, seem to be the primary vocalists. Check this site out for all sorts of info: http://www.deaddisc.com/index.html

the grass is dead

I am trying to track down an album called The Grass is Dead ( a Bluegrass tribute to the Dead)

I have an album called...

....Deadgrass. Are we taling about the same thing?

Hey Gonz!!

How ya doin'?!!!!!

Not bad, J'man

Body is falling apart but made it hom through the snowbobound madness at Heathrow. Hope you're doing well buddy and the big guy upstairs is providing a wonderful holiday for you and yours -- even if if it doesn't have all the material stuff. (well, excpet for cookies) Had some some key-lime th'other day that were great! Merry Christmas!

Why don't the track listings appear?

Why don't the track listings appear for most of the music items in the store? See the store item pages for Dick's Picks 30 or Steppin' Out for example. It seems an important enough detail to include. Or, am I just missing it. Hmmm.

Europe '72 box set

Hi there. I pre-ordered through this site, but haven't received a confirmation e-mail. Should I have? Should I simply assume that the order went through? Thanks, Joanne Dinsmore

well, I'm not sure what you mean by pre-ordered

but if you ordered when the site was crashing etc. on the first day, I'd follow up with customer service. If you reserved a copy when the reservation system went up, you should be hearing back shortly with ordering instructions. It is better to check with customer service than to just assume all is well, though.

Road Trip V.1.1

I am looking to replace the jacket only to R/T 1.1.mine got warped in a monsoon rain storm in Key West Fla. this is my 3rd atempt to ask this Q. Talk to me!

I'm not sure what to tell you

as I have never heard of replacement jackets being available for recordings. I'd suggest looking on eBay in case somebody who leaves their CD in the rental car (only to have the rental car deny all knowledge of course) and finds themselves with an empty jacket decides to make a buck off it. But unfortunately it wasn't Road Trips I had this experience with...

"Acts Of God"

Warner Brothers states it will not be responsible for actors of God like the USP Man stealing your E72 customized box because he was stoned. Neither shall they be responsible for your neglect of the weather in the Florida keys. It's all written into the fine print that absolves them of all legal action due to illegal substances and the 1968 "Thick Air" Bob Weir requested for Born Cross-eyed.

Phil dropped out of Site..somebody have a clue?

As of at least Febr. 12th, possibly before, Phil Lesh's web site has been missing in action. No re-direct, nothing. I find no mention of this at the fan site's forums, (PhilZone), anywhere-- only chatter on other stuff. Can anyone shed some light as to what my favorite instrumentalist on the planet is up to with that gorgeous chunk of cybersapce he developed? A moderator, if one exists? Anybody? Thanks. Sonic'72

correcting a post

How can I go back and correct a post made by me. Eg. missed spelled words, wrong info.

you can't, pretty much

if it's really driving you crazy send me a PM with the details and I'll go edit it. (I'm the mod.)

marye

Hi Marye, Before I ask my question(s) I just wanted to say to you that for the past two months I have noticed that you are just an incredibley hard working, huge hearted, fully responsive and priceless piece to all that is Dead.net and I want to thank you for all that you do... you rock! I am new to the Vine world and now find myself addicted... once again, I think your the one responsible for this :-) I have "met" some really cool people (well, interated with) through this vine and I can't wait to see the next door that Dead.net opens for me... I am looking for new vines, outside of the Dead family... like Mechelle N'degecello (sp?), Prince and/or other funky stuff... Are there other Deadheads like me that also have a funky side? Also, Road Trips... Any idea what the remaining 3 releases will be (what periods?). You don't have to divuldge the actual dates. Finally, yes Europe '72 !! I can't wait for the Suitecase... any tidbits that can be shared? Please ? Much love & respect, iGrateful

re Road Trips and new releases

I know nothing! Truly! As for funk vines, there is certainly no harm asking in the vineyard meta-topic!

STEAL YOUR FACE ORIGINAL BLACKLIGHT POSTER

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT HE VALUE WOULD BE ON AN ORIGINAL STEAL YOUR FACE BLACKLIGHT POSTER WOULD BE IN GREAT CONDITION

Is it possible to delete a one of my posts

Sorry if this has been asked before. I'm a novice. The Music Never Stopped!

if it really bugs you

I can delete it. Lemme know where it is.

Hey there!

I am new to the forum scene here- and a great one it it! I was just wondering, in most (if not all) the forum topics, it says "You are not allowed to post" or something to that nature. If I wanted to post a new topic about the Greatful Dead movie being re-released this April, how & where would I do that? I would imagine a lot of heads (and those who never got to see the band) are excited about this event and it would be cool to hear about that. Thank you!

short answer

you would send me a PM about it. I'm the forums moderator and I can start topics. This is a basic chaos management issue. In this particular case, I suspect something more official is coming down the pike, but in the meantime, no reason we can't start something...

here you go

bring your movie talk here!

error

There are couple of errors

Nothing

is perfect. Dents add character. That's why they call them character flaws. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

TWO FROM THE VAULT

Dude ive been looking for the twofrom the vault version of new potato caboose to download for free somewhere and i really cant find it and i absoluty adore that song man!! if anybody had it or had a cool non virus place to download that version that be fuckin sweet :D woah. dejavu

dude

sorry, this is so the wrong place to ask for downloads of pirated copyrighted material. Next!

a message to robert hunter

Is there a way to send a personal message to robert hunter? along with thousand other deadheads~~~

at this moment

I'm not sure. He used to be pretty active on old Dead.net, now Deadnet Central/DNC, but when I checked over there the other day on the occasion of his birthday he didn't seem to be around so much anymore. I'll look into what the current PO Box status is because my brain is stuck in the old reality on that one (and it's Saturday so no one's around to ask) and I don't want to give you bad advice, but I'm sure there still exists some mechanism for writing a letter and having it forwarded, as it were. I'll let you know what I find out.

E72 SHipping preferences

A page has just appeared asking international customers to select a shipping preference. Could we perhaps have a little more explanation? We have already agreed to a shipping cost of $85..I very much hope that is not going to change ...so what are the differences between shipping by UPS or USPS? thanks

Birthday Coupon

Is this the right place to ask “what can I use the coupon for?” Today is my birthday (me & Mickey) & I received the yearly coupon email from Dead dot net. Went to try it on the new box set. No luck.
I figure maybe that’s because it’s a preorder, so I try the new Dave’s Picks. Also a no-go.
I checked the email & there are no restrictions listed, but I can’t get it to work on anything.
Thoughts? Suggestions? I am sincerely appreciative of the generosity, but it won’t do me any good if I can’t use it on anything in the store.

Thanks!

EDIT - I just now tried it with the MSG box (how is that still available?) and it worked there. So I’ll wait a week until the Summer ‘85 box is officially released & update then.

Private Messages

HI Marye.
Hope all is well..
So I'm trying to get back to some Private Messages from earlier this year - Late February through April/May or so. I can go back a page and see a summary of messages but when I click on any of them I get taken back to the most recent page of messages, not the page/message I clicked on. Any Ideas as to what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for all of your help.

it was 40 years ago today

I and a pack of friends dosed to the gills were on our way to see Jerry and the band at the SunDome in Tampa. Quite the show and a floating roof made for good times. Saw many a band at the SunDome, always a great time.
