    Annotated Lyrics, page 106
    The manuscript version of the song includes these lines: Why wait in the dark for dawn / (while) when the sun's still going down?/ Maybe I'll dust off your chair/ If you say you're comin' 'round... There's more. Thanks, Wahrlock, and it's never a bad day to dive into the annotated lyrics...

    I would see what the Grateful Dead Annotated Lyrics had to say on the subject.

    Uncle John's Band (additional verses)

    Many years ago I found 2 more verses and a bridge/chorus(?) posted online for Uncle John's Band. The source was alleged to be an acoustic set Jerry did at a small club (The Matrix?).
    One verse starts with: "Why wait in the dark for dawn when the sun's still going down?"
    Another starts with: "Would you carry me uphill, back the way I carried you?"
    I don't want to post the full verses since I can't vouch for their authenticity.

    Has anyone ever heard recordings of these verses? Any more info on them?

    getting permission for the title and cover of my book about GD

    Hello, I'm sorry if this is off your topic but maybe you can help. I have written a nice book about the music from the early Brent Mydland years of the Grateful Dead, about 400 pages. I want to get permission to use a certain image on the cover, and to use a certain lyric for the title. Do you happen to know who I should be in touch with about this project? Thanks! --Ryan Bouchard

    I'd like to know why the support for the store is MIA. Has anyone else had this issue? I purchased the American Beauty 50th so I could have the 2/18/71 show. The FLAC download has a corrupted cutoff GDTRFB and it's missing the NFA Pt. 2 and Uncle John's. I've reached out to support but they are MIA. Any ideas how to get ahold of them?

probably best to start with an email to drrhino at rhino.com and explain what you have in mind so he can send you to the right folks.

Almost every time I visit Dead.net I get into technical problems. Need to hire a techie maybe? <grin>
I can't order Dave's Picks 2020. The field that says "delivery option" is blank. No choices are listed. So it won't let me continue to the "billing" section. What's up?

I have been a huge fan of the Dead since I heard St Stephen for the first time in 1988 (getting stoned before a Mountain Bike trail ride). Well, I have been watching a bunch of YouTube videos on tool restorations for the past couple of years and have decided to hopefully start making some of my own. Knowing the Dead has been into the free sharing of their live performances, I figured their music would be a better fit than all the royalty-free music that everyone uses. (My account on there is even The Dead Rabbit) . But before I just go and start using their music I thought I would look into if they had a problem with use of that nature. This website seemed like the most logical place to start! Thank you for your time John M. Albert "Rabbit"

I’m not a lawyer, but sometimes I play one on the internet.
They own a copyright on all their music.
But, if it’s playing in the background while you repair a tool, and you don’t receive any revenue from the video, then they probably won’t harass you.
I suggest that you hang a steal your face in the background to promote the band, and maybe even indicate the artist and song that are playing in the background.
Maybe you’ll convert a few tool heads to dead heads.

I think I found the Lawyer for their licensing email and basically copy and pasted my post to them with a little rewording. Thanks for the input, however, I am betting converting these guys will be a challenge. Most of them are around the age of the big bang I mean big band swing music era! LOL ..and carving a SYF is a planned project if I ever get the time!

What is wrong with the distribution of Dave's Picks Vol. 32? Mine was supposed to be delivered nearly a month ago. Tracking shows it got to my city, then it went to several other locations and eventually ended up in Franklin, Indiana, where it was "delivered." I live in Ohio. Emails and a phone call have produced lots of apologies but no correction and everything has been silence for well over a week. The impression I'm given is this is a problem affecting many, but I see no word of it here. Any helpful information?

Does the 20% discount apply to Dave's Picks 2020? I am at the point to order and doesn't show up as a discount in my basket.

Sorry to bug you guys here but there are no other answers available within Dead.net ...

My handle is BrooklynJed and I won the US Blues clue on November 22. I would love to claim my calendar prize and savor the victory during the coming year.

Can you please advise how 30 Days winners can claim their calendars or refer me in the right direction?

Hello Marye
Hoping you can point me in the right direction on this. I live in Canada and received a shipping invoice related to DaP 31. I emailed Dr. Rhino 3 times in August but no answer. UPS told me it was resolved when I called them in September, but then I just received a collection notice. I've emailed UPS again and Dr. Rhino again, but anything you can do to help would be gratefully appreciated! Thank you!

Marye, I am not sure you can help but I really need someone who can communicate with Dr. Rhino. I ordered the Giants Stadium Digital Box set download before it was on sale. The email I initially received only had a link to download the 6/17/91 show. I have emailed and customer services more than 10 times over the last two months to try and resolve the issue. I have received two emails from Dr. Rhino which were supposed to address my problem but they only resent me the original link to the June 17, 1991 and nothing else. This has been going on more than 2 months now. It is becoming absurd. How can I get someone to understand my problem and to address it? Thank you.

Hello??? I'm not sure what else I can do to get attention on my order. I've emailed numerous times, only to get an auto reply and a ticket number. Received no response to date (order placed Nov 30th!), at all!
Incredibly lame. I feel ripped off and want a refund at this point.

I ordered the 50th Anniversary cd dvd box on Nov. 8. Today is January 24, and it has not arrived. Worse yet, it is shown on deadnets data as not having been shipped. I contacted PayPal and today, a day later, got a message from Deadnet saying the box is on the way. So far all turned out ok and there is nothing for you to do.

In Europe there was a couple of years ago a spectacular bankruptcy of a sister company, Spincd. Lots of customers lost many lots of money. People trusted delayed shipments would arrive because the staff was cool and knowledgeable, but they also behaved fraudulently., and then bankruptcy ended all hope, and all payments went to preferred creditors. Now comes the work for you, Mary.

I wonder why nothing happened with that cd dvd box for 55 days, but it got sent as soon as Paypal came on board. My emails to deadnet were ignored, no answer, so maybe status matters even in deadworld. What do you think? A second issue is why deadnet does not give info about delays. If there are agency or economic problems, it must be better to tell customers instead of being silent and covering everything up, which gives rise to anxiety and a focus on contacting the credit card companies before their individual time bars for helping expire. What do you think and can attitudes be changed?

Regarding yr message of Jan. 24, I cannot find a reply. The issue was non-delivery of an order 137400000224956 and particularly why it was not shipped for at least 60 days. The staff over at deadnet do not answer though I have got a new report from them about ten days ago that it has at that time been sent. My concern is some kind of problem which could result in future problems in ordering. Are you geting a run-around from the shipping dept. Why would shipping of a paid for order be delayed 60 days? Well one possibility is some kind of financial iliquidity.

Didn't there used to be a list that had the shows we attended individually? I know I compiled one, several years back, but I don't see it at all. Thanks.

for international shipments, why not take directly the customs fees, and allow us a shipment other than the standard one.

I still buy your CDs but I would love to have digital copies too. Why are there not packages where we can buy the CD box like the new 1976 box that includes the ability to download the digital files for an additional fee? The current pricing structure is almost as much again to get the digital files too.

is go to eBay and look for comparables, i.e. what the tie is going for from other sellers. Keep in mind that the asking price and what people are willing to pay are often very different.

OK so I appreciate that the world is kind of turned inside out right now but a small plea nonetheless - I can only assume that my copy of DP33 has got lost on its journey across the water - no sign of it here, there is just a FAINT chance of course that it might by RTS via the courier service but owing to the fact that I never even received an email advising of shipment I cannot check on this, I tried contacting you via the central email but simply got bounced back....please... is there ANY chance of my actually receiving my order, even if not before the (hopeful) arrival of DP34... sorry if this sounds like a rant, it isnt, and I totally appreciate the great stuff that you do but.....

I remember hearing from someone in the band (Phil? Bob? Jerry?) that one of the songs on Aoxomoxoa was an experimental type of song, where the main voice was actually a mix of the entire GD sound. I don't remember anything else. Can anyone help me out here?
