Grateful Dead

dead.net the official site

What a way to kick off Summer Tour!!! Rochester is a beautiful small town, with a gorgeous park, and in the middle of Highland Park there is a beautiful bowl that fits 6000 perfectly. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, they provided us with rolling grassy parkland to tailgate in all night, and there was NO SEARCH upon entry. Beautiful people, most mature and kind, grooved steadily to some sick jams... Here Comes Sunshine, Stranger, Feelin Alright, Cosmic Charlie, New Potato Caboose... Thank you FURTHUR for a cookin show and to the city of Rochester for putting on a dignified family picnic. Show 'em how it's done! See you at ArtPark!!!!!!! (~);)

There are a lot of Deadheads in the Burlington area and in Vermont. I'm one of them. When I first heard that Furthur was going to play at the Shelburne Museum I was delighted and confused at the same time. Delighted because it was going to be a small, intimate venue and confused because, given the popularity of the band, this was NOT a good choice to play. Unfortunately, I think this is a hangover from the 94-95 Highgate shows. Out of control crowds and tons and tons of trash all over the place did not endear the Grateful Dead to the locals. I think they failed to take into account the fact that it's 15 years later and a sold out show does not mean lunacy because we all got a lot older and tamer -- well, most of us anyway. Vermont is a very beautiful place and nobody wants to see it spoiled. They don't want anymore new people moving in because "the flat-landers" could gain control of the political process and change things. It's a hillbilly mentality. It was the hippies moving back to the land in the 70s that has given Vermont it's juicy quality (artists, artisans, craftspeople, meditation centers etc., etc.). On behalf of all the Deadheads in VT I would like to apologize for stupid, backwards-looking townies and staties who took it upon themselves to ruin for everyone. This would have been one of the more friendly and scenic stops on the tour and Burlington is a jewel of a city. We'll see if they shut down Rhyth Devils in Burlington in August. Please don't label all Vermonters Vermonsters. The idiots are few and far between.

What time has Further been hitting the stage?

Anyone heading to the Outside Lands Fest in August. Never been to it before. I was thinking of heading up and making a little vacation out of it. Have you been to it before? Is it a good time and/or what should I expect?

Never did like Vermont - they have bumper stickers that say "Thanks for visiting Vermont, don't forget to leave." Always figured I'd rather forget to visit in the first place, and take my vacation dollars elsewhere.Looking forward to Lowell on 6/30!

What's up Vermont? "Lazy lightning you say you never strike the same place. I want a double dose in any case" ... "You got to hear my supplication. Got to hear me now. A little bolt of inspiration"

It's just too bad that the cops/city has to be so lame about not letting them play there!Furthur Cancels July 5th show July 5th Shelburne Vermont Show CANCELLED To All Of Our Fans Who’ve Purchased Tickets To Our July 5 Show in Shelburne, VT: After days of meetings to address and alleviate last minute concerns being expressed by State and Local Authorities, Furthur is very disappointed to learn that today, the local authorities, citing an inability to deal with an expected influx of ticketless fans, traffic concerns, and other issues, have revoked the approved permits for the show and have decided to cancel Furthur's concert at Vermont's Shelburne Museum on July 5. As the decision made today by the local authorities has been made so close to the event date, unfortunately we are unable to find a suitable alternate venue. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience! Full & complete refunds are available at point of purchase. If you purchased online you'll automatically be refunded. In the meantime, please be assured that we are working hard to find a replacement show on July 5 somewhere outside of Vermont. We plan to announce plans for a replacement date later this evening. Please stay tuned for updates. ♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥

Last time it was "SHAKEDOWN" but am not sure if it will be the same tomorrow. I would go to kbco.com and register with them - its simple. Then tomorrow right as tickets go on sale go to kbco.com and it will give you the password then it directs you to the TM website, plug in the password and you are set. Good luck!
