    I've seen some (the bit that's included with the GD Scrapbook). I have to admit, I've always steered away from this one 'cause of Jerry's bad vocal night. I'll give it another shot though on your recommendation. More pro video of this would be nice I guess. Wasn't this show a TV broadcast, or am I mistaken? Pretty sure it was a radio show at least.

    Deadbase says it was a simulcast.
    and Tapers Compendium said 11/24/78 was the 'For Deadheads Only' show.Jerry did have some voice issues and I think that during that era this show got discounted during those days when his voice was soooo on. Considering what his voice sounded like in some of those shows in the 90s (or even some 80s) was like, I would encourage you to give this another listen. On further (pun intended) thought, maybe I should give it another spin as well.

    Vault Minders-Aren't there any of the later Red Rocks video 'proshots' in the vault that we could have in DVD ? Pretty please? We will not complain or crab, I promise. Just to see an era of the GD at that site would be transportive.

    Have you seen the video from 11/24/78 @ Capitol Theatre?
    I have to say that is one of my very favorite video offerings from 1978.Of course, the video quality is not up to par but it is such a great show. The boys (and Donna) having a wonderful time. The Taping Compendium notes on this show 'Highlights: The entire show'. Haza el-Din is a special guest and when I listened to this on the radio 'back in the day', I loved it. That second set Estimated>Shakedown>jam>drums>Ollin Arageed>Fire>Sugar Magnolia is totally unique. Deadbase XI's account of 11/24/78 by David Greenbrug relates (in part) "Fire segues so seamlessly into Sugar Magnolia that it is easy to miss the transition entirely. It was practically choreographed! In one of the video's finest moments, Jerry, who seems to have instigated the segue, looks over at Weir with a proud stance, as if to say "Hey, wasn't that neat?" while Bob looks back with an utterly shocked espression. I think it took a few seconds for it to register with Bob that they weren't playing Fire anymore!" Anyway I found this video to be a delight even through the sketchy video. 11/24/1978 would be one for Rhino to put out on a DVD. Or give me video of the 1978 Winterland 'From Egypt with Love' shows (pick any of them). Or on second thought give me all of them in sharp DVD resolution. Is the Duke show, when Jerry actually plays drums? Is that the one?

    yeah, i guess you're right
    I could have consulted my taping compendium to see that the video from '78 is quite limited and does not include the July Red Rocks shows. The April Duke show piques my interest a little, but that's a show that doesn't imprint on my brain as much as the Red Rocks shows do.

    If you find a video, please pass it on. I don't recall any video screens at that show in those daze. I vined the audience tapes of Red Rocks in the Vineyard, if you are so inclined.

    St. Paul T-Shirt '75 to '82
    Hey guys, I am looking to get a t shirt for my dad this Christmas. I know he saw the dead live during the years above, specifically at the St. Paul civic center in 76 and 79; the Met center in 75 and at the Metrodome with Bob Dylan in 82 (or at least those are the years i got from someone in the family who should know, they may be off slightly). I found a website that has retro t shirts, but i am trying to find one that he would have seen when he was at the concert. Any help, either to exact t shirts or to pictures of the art that was on the shirts during these concerts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Guys

Thanks so much for the link! I wasn't looking for GD Converse shoe because I didn't realize they existed! I checked out the link and found some cool shoes. We're doing back to school shopping for my 14 year old who also loves the Dead. May order shoes for both of us!

Hi folks, I'm looking for the vendor who sold beautiful coloured tiles with Dead-inspired imagery in the Furthur lot this summer. Saw them in Rochester and came to Lewiston ready to buy but, woes me, they weren't at that show =( If you know who I'm talking about could you please send me a link or a contact? Would love to decorate our kitchen with a little Dead. Thanks! K

peter, I went back and forth on just nuking that post, but to reiterate, don't go soliciting illegal items on this site. For one thing everyone in the world, including the DEA, can read it. For another, it is not cool here. And being coy doesn't really change anything, as just about every cop I've ever encountered is pretty darn familiar with the term 420, and I bet it's true in Cape Cod too.

Haha, I happen to have exactly the same problem as Candyman_Chris above. Northern NJ as well. I plan on dressing like Jerry circa 1970. The problem is that all the places I've searched either have long, straight hippie style hair or these ridiculous looking afros. Nothing that really looks like Jerry. So, like Chris, I'd appreciate if anyone can point me in the right direction. Either online or in the Northern NJ area. Thanks.

I've exhausted every source at my disposal in an attempt to find a few items as part of my collection from shows I've attended... In specific: A used, but near-mint - mint ticket from Phil's 70th birthday show not to long ago (I had an E-ticket that was lost...) A New Years' poster from 2010 in mint condition (Furthur). A ticket from Saturday Furthur from the last 3 day run at Red Rocks. A (from the sound-board 500 limited release) copy of the LA Forum Dead '09 show w/ Warren Haynes (I got one CD from each show w/ the wristband setup but somehow lost that one as part of my collection). I have many many many things to trade, including signed work, Ipod Nanos with pre-loaded music and tons of extra posters from the past 5 years. Please, if you know where I can come across any of these items or know of a good (better) site that is checked more often by DeadHeads for trading purposes...email me. Dcarter99@aol.com I'm not sure if they have a reply system setup on here that would notify my email box, so please email me after you respond to this post so I can act on it quickly. I must fix the voids in my collection !! =) Cheers, ~d

Sure, but they only played it four times. Here's the very first one! Also the first Truckin', Ripple and Brokedown Palace (all acoustic) as a bonus. Enjoy! The other performance dates for Operator are 9/18/70, 11/7/70 and 11/8/70. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

Check out this site for some pics of some of the ticket stubs of shows you listed that your boyfriend saw. My guess it you could put several of those onto your slideshow. http://www.loathemegacorp.com/deadpieshop/ You might find more pictures or other info on the phillesh website for the other Dead shows you listed. Check your pm for some additional info. The Truth is realized in an instant, the act is practiced step by step.

Hi all, I've been scouring the internet for a certain GD shirt that I once had in college and has since gone missing (well, not really "missing"...according to my dad, my beloved shirt was retired to dust rag status many years ago. Eeek!). It's got the skeleton, the bear, and the turtle playing baseball, and on the back reads "Steal Your Base". If anyone knows where I can find one, please let me know! The only one I've been able to find online is on eBay, for $90. Thanks in advance! Cheers, jre7007

Really strange request, but does anyone have the box for the above. Mine got really damaged when renovation work was getting done to our house a couple of years ago, although contents were thankfully intact. I know this request is weird but perhaps someone has transferred all the music to digital and doesn't need the box anymore. I will of course reimburse any expense incurred. Thanks John

I know it's a long shot, but is anyone willing to part with their Fillmore Box Set and Bonus Disc for a reasonable price? These knuckleheads on Ebay and Amazon are way out of line. I understand basic economics of supply and demand and I acknowledge that I won't pay $79.95 like the original purchasers, but $750-$2000? Unfortunately, I wasn't on the bus yet, so I missed out and it is the only official release I do not own. Let me know!

Hello. Please could someone tell me if these are officially licensed merchandise or not please? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230580505731&ssPag… The plastic is thinner than a real pick and the edges are not rounded but sharp and wobbly with nicks as if they had been cut out after printing by hand, or just badly. I don't believe they actually are picks as described, but just printed-on bits of plastic badly cut into a pick shape. The graphics of the 'Anthem of the Sun' and 'Very Best of' ones are not centred like in the auction photo, but to the side and cropped off on one edge. Just wanted to make sure they weren't officially licenced before asking for a refund, to avoid accusing anyone unjustly. Thanks.
