    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?

I brought this up in the "Announcements" section but there was alot of "other stuff" going on there and it was maybe over looked. I grew up in Inglewood - saw my first rock show at the Forum, a group called Cream - also saw the Jefferson AIRPLANE (NOT Starship...), Jimi (twice), the Stones, Dylan, C.S.N. & Y., C.C.R. & the Grateful Dead (6 times) - ALL at the Forum. Many fond memories. My son is 16 and has not been to any shows of any kind yet. A while back he said he was mad at me because, through me, the Grateful Dead have become his favorite band, and he will never be able to see them. Now, because of this tour, he will be able to see the closest thing this side of that "big show in the sky". I have 2 ticket for the 9th and am very happy - BUT I just learned from a co-worker about the Stagehand Union strike at the Forum.See - http://www.ia33.org/action/la_forum.htm and/or http://www.justiceattheforum.com/ Neil Young canceled his show rather than cross the picket line. We have had some grocery store stickes as my boy has been growing up and we never cross the line.I hope someone is looking into this. I'm not trying to be negative. I am so glad that they are playing at the inauguration of the man I voted for. "Lotta poor man got to walk the line Just to pay his union dues" -Peace-

He's directed a bunch of episodic television, mostly on Disney Channel. He was nominated for a film directing award too: the 28th Golden Raspberry for Worst Director for "Daddy Day Camp" He's no Opie Cunningham. ********************************************* I have a sigfile! --> www.kindveggieburritos.com *********************************************

there has been some work on the servers happening behind the scenes, and it has periodically caused things to go a bit wacky. Generally it goes away on its own, but if the problem persists do speak up. (This also applies to the epidemic of duplicate posts and overenthusiasm of the spam filter, for which I do apologize.)

Hey wings, what I heard was that they would be sent out about 2 weeks before the show dates, so hoping to get mine for greensboro about end of March or a bit earlier, said that they would send a trackin' # when they sent out the tix. so expect them in about 2 months. :) hope this helps. peace

Here's what I received in the body of my confirmation email: "By choosing UPS 2nd Day Air or UPS Worldwide Express, it does NOT necessarily mean that your tickets will arrive two days after processing your order. Tickets will be shipped approximately two weeks before the event date; however they might be shipped earlier. If you have not received your tickets within one week of the event date, please email deadtickets@musicotoday.com immediately and we will happily assist you."

I have been trying to access this site for months, but the site continues to announce that it will be back at a future date. I apologize for bothering people with this question if the answer is obvious, but I am completely curious about it as the site has been down since well before Christmas. Thanks!

and my understanding of the byzantine legal ramifications is that Dead.net has nothing to do with it. Much as I personally would love to have it here, I don't know what the deal is either.

Thanks for the info marye. I guess it's just as simple as people having different opinions about who gets what and who owns what. I guess I'm glad I've been able to track down all of the Pure Jerry releases from other sources. It's just more proof that silliness still prevails in this world.

Hi, I can't seem to find any instructions to mail order tickets for Spring Tour...can you direct me? Of course I would like to do it today...so maybe I'm too late to ask. As I remember from many years ago, the process was quite exact & sadly I only remember some of the details like 3x5 index cards and cashiers checks or was it money orders??Thanks

We usually stayed in a motel by the University. On El Camino Real by the Sizzler. A few miles away, but suffice it to say there were many tapestries in the windows and nobody ever closed a door all weekend! ;) Just remember, all the rooms look alike, so it's easy to find yourself in a room full of new friends. Kinda the point anyway, right? :)

Is about the photos we post. It used to be that I could see the username of who had posted a photo. Now I only see the person's icon. So if I don't know who's user photo or image is showing-have no clue as to who has put up the photo. Is this a change in the system? ********************************** It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

except for the rare day I take off, I check the spam filter daily, so posts that get caught up in this fashion don't stay that way long enough to do anything like disrupt a vine. Though when responses are running a couple of hundred per hour it gets a little surreal.
