Grateful Dead

dead.net the official site

No offense, but I can't believe u guys moaning about an 8 hour drive to get to a show etc...what about those of us overseas? Man, I used to hitch across the country at the drop of a hat to see the boys, with NO money in my pocket. I always found a way! I even traveled all the way from the south of New Zealand once just to get to do Spring Tour (surely a Deadhead record) arriving around midnight the night before with no idea of where I'd stay, just heading to the lot and seeing what happened. I've even had to be in the States illegally to see shows as I got deported years ago for swinging on the lot. This is what being Deadicated really means! You guys are so lucky, I'm happy for u all, but my heart is breaking at the same time. I don't think I can handle the stress of coming into the States illegally again to see the boys even though I know I'd see a lot of old friends. My best friends, the best u could ever wish for. My family. But with the way the U.S. is like a police state these days the chances of getting caught and put in jail for a year or two just for entering illegally is probably too much for me. Please come to Europe guys... Could everyone PLEASE, PLEASE post asking the guys to tour Europe this year!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Are you kind?"

HEY - I am a west coast transplant living here in PA. I am for certain going to the show at Wilkes Barre but do not know any heads on this side of the country. I would love to chat with folks on line before the date to maybe meet up or pre and post party at the show. when in doubt.....twirl Rebecca

I have not seen any comments on an earlier post on the topic of mail order tickets.... is the pre-sale exclusive to the site; new school mail order?

What about a KC or St Louis show? I live in Kansas and will have to drive at least 8 hours as well as find/pay for lodging and burn vacation time from work. Is there anything that can be done? I'd be willing to help mount a campaign to request a show in at least one more midwest city, PLEASE!

Only another reason to get back to the gym to do a little cardio Need to get back into dancing shape Oh what a long strange trip its been so far Thanks Boys Keep on Rockin

Told ya's there would be Cali shows added... :P Now come on guys, how about Europe this year??? We need some of that love out here too..! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Are you kind?"

Anyone care to make some random guestimations on the presale and regular sale tix prices? 42% of all statistics are made up.

Hope to be Jammin' in Chicago!!!

oh man im jacked up wish they was commin a little closer to ohio but who blames them im gonna take my little girl to her first concert you know its gotta be the dead lookin forward to it just gotta save some cookie money up cant wait to se yall at the show

Just gotta raise the funds somehow and make the trek to Cali. If there is no summer tour, that means no chance of them hitting Willie Nelson's Picnic here in Texas. But I've done my grieving for Jerry and loved both Obama shows so I am ready to catch them for the first time since the late 80's. It'll be a nice way to see friends and family in Cali. What new adventures are waiting to be had? I just hope the shows don't sell out in Jan. Although this won't be as big as Phish (who I have yet to really take a liking to), I have a feeling people are jonesing for more Dead.
