    Dave's Picks (Looking for Miracle for founder of Deer Creek)

    Hello. First time poster. I saw on Facebook someone posted about Dave's Picks Volume 40 at Deer Creek.

    I understand it is sold out, but inside there is a letter from John Scher to Dave Lucas. That Dave Lucas was my father.
    He and his partner built Deer Creek, and created the vision on how great it ended up being. I myself worked many summers doing the marketing for the shows at Deer Creek including all the Dead shows.

    However, I would like to get a copy of that as a present for him and I have no idea where to find. Can anyone help? Looking for a miracle(many times I handed out extra tickets as miracles). I think he would find it very special.

    Thank you in advance.

    a positive Brian Dyke review

    Here's one largely positive review from Brian Dyke, in Taping Compendium Vol. I: of Denver Coliseum, Nov 20 1973 - though some of the details of his description don't match what I hear, and he resorts in a couple of places to (mild) versions of his typical fault-casting (saying "the triad of 'Promised' > 'Bertha' > 'Greatest Story,' falls flat on its face" - which just isn't so, I think ["Promised Land" 's particularly rhythmically good, w/very spunky drumming; Jer flubs the 2nd verse of "Bertha," though]).

Is the old site still running? There is still guest access and it looks like there are recent posts, but requests to reset my password go unanswered.

Hey there Y'all -
My Daughter was sorting through my records lately and found two unusual records (seem to be from a radio broadcast in 1981 on the NBC young adults network). If these are of value to the archive I would be glad to send them to the right person.
Thanks

They still exist, but I don't think they're active. I think technology may have overtaken it all to some extent; it pretty much comes down to whether people still want to do things that way. It was fun to get those DVDs in the mail...

I just got a notice on the 2020 Almanac being available and I downloaded it to my Apple Books. This got me thinking- I collected all my hard copies back in the day and would like to download and add the ones I see here going back to 2013. All of the available links go to 2020. Any way to access the Almanac Archive? Always Grateful for your help.

i have been enjoying the 30 days feature. Problem is i downloaded Ship of Fools and the album info was from some band 'Bennie K' and their picture. Anybody else experience this? Wondering what i did. I am so not tech savy.
Thanks

Fatdag101, Re: Parish's B-Day, maybe it's in his book, Home Before Daylight.

Max Wishbone, wouldn't get too worried about the false cover art. You'd probably have to re-tag the files yourself but I don't want to get too technical here.

Hi MaryE!
I was just going through the archives marking all my shows and am surprised not to see 9/24/94 included. I understand it was billed as Phil & Friends (and no drummers), but wasn't that just a sleight of hand,( a la Hampton VA Warlocks) under the radar ticket sales at the time? I worked at the Warfield/Fillmore at the time and was fortunate enough to purchase tickets. Amazing :)
Thanks for everything!

Does anyone know how many tickets were generally sold as "mailorder" tickets directly from the Dead? As a percentage of total tickets sold.

Specifically, I am trying to figure out how many mailiorder tickets there were sold for the last show on 7.9.95

Lastly does anyone have any idea of the value of a used stub (ticket was used and half missing).

It has the hollogram (sp?)dancing bear , Grateful Dead, and 2 security strips. I also have the "This darkness got to give" letter that was handed out at these last shows, after the Deer Creek debacle.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Greetings all. I was wondering how to contact the label to request permission to use some Dead music on my stream. Unsure if I even need to honestly based on their overall bootleg policy as a band. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi and hope all is well from Talagante, Chile.
I have a file on my hard drive and it has many MP3's that say in the detail section "Tapers section" these files go back many years to 2008. My question is. at one time did the "tapers section" allow downloads ? I ask because these files were with my "30 days of dead" and I don't want to make extra work for myself while organizing. Thanks very much. Joe

Yep, selections from Taper's Section were downloadable for a good while, maybe a couple years. In fact, it created a little hubbub when downloading was made more difficult. Back in the day the selections were a little more eclectic with single tracks sprinkled in with longer clips. Taper's Section has since moved to a pretty much 3 streamable segments per week joint for quite a few years now.

I am fairly confident i am in the wrong place to ask these questions, so here we go.
1.) How does one go about claiming a calendar won during the recent 30 days contest?
B.) Does there exist anywhere a studio recording of He's Gone?
3.) If you happen to be the woman spinning on the hill at Buckeye Lake in '94 wearing a white sundress, get a hold of
me please. Your name has unfortunately slipped my mind.

Does anyone know if the digi-packs that hold the CD's for the ALL MUSIC EDITION of this box set
(and for that matter, the box that holds the digi-packs and booklet) are the same bulky size as the
NON-ALL MUSIC EDITION, or are they possibly about the same size as a Dave's Picks CD that will fit
comfortably on my CD rack. It's hard to tell from the picture in the Store.
Love the collectable box sets, but I'm running out of room for bulky boxes, and would love to keep
my music on the shelf.
Thanks for any answers/Feedback > Goodnight

Shall we assume that All The Years Live is dead/caput? Seems to have been removed from the site as of 2/14/2021...

It’s larger than a normal CD, and as such won’t fit conveniently on a shelf with other CDs, definitely won’t fit on a CD rack. I don’t have my copy in front of me but if I had to ballpark it I would say it’s about 10”x10” square maybe. But it’s damn near tiny compared to the PNW box haha.
