    pre sale tickets
    I started exactly at 12 to purchase tickets for 4/25 at the Garden.After about an hour I gave up. Now there are a ton of tickets on StubHub. How did they get in? It really pisses me off that I didn't get tickets and the people who did a-are not going and b-are making a profit selling their tix. Anyone else feeling that?

    Search Function Broken
    The search function seems really broken. Searching on a simple keyword (e.g. pitch) yields a bunch of hits. Each hit shows an excerpt of the post that contains the keyword. So far so good. Now, if I click on the link to view the entire post that contained the keyword match I'm simply taken to the thread that contained the post instead of being taken to the actual post. The link doesn't even take me to the *page* within the thread that contains the post. A given thread may have a dozen pages with a hundred posts in total. I guess I have to slog through each page of the thread using the search function in my browser to try and find the actual post that your search engine showed me an excerpt of. Am I missing something or is the search function as useless as it appears to be?

    and I don't know the current status. In my experience, people are just about evenly divided in the emoticon-fan and emoticon-phobe camps, but they do seem to come up with new and complex varieties. I stick with the ascii ones like your examples myself, but some software converts them automatically.

    I wonder if one reason why there has been some squabbling a bit in some of the forums is the basic issue of never knowing a person's tone of voice or emotions or facial expressions in the post. sure, the Tibet issue and the whole idea of organized religion etc etc are HOT topics, but I wonder if a simple solution, or a simple way to make things better (more clear) would be possible... what I suggest is the availability of little icon emotions, or little smile faces, that we have available, easily available, please; that people can add to their posts to kind of 'set the mood' know what I mean? I use these: ( -: or ( -; like yahoo mail or something has tons of cool little dudes to put in email. that said, I never figured out how to use them, just my neice who is only a small fry dude, knows how and she includes them. ) -; peace.

Same here - a balmy 37 degrees last I checked. Better that than the cold, ice and snow we had the prior 10 days. Kind of a warm-up actually...we were having weather portentous of an early start to winter. The cold will be back though. More snow and I think I'll be strapping on the snow shoes.

and they sent my Dave's 23 to the wrong address. As soon as I got the shipment confirmation email, I called and emailed with my change of address and was assured over the phone that it would arrive at my new address. As it turns out, they shipped it to my old address and now I have to track it down somehow at my old apartment building. It was probably placed in my old mailbox which is likely now someone else's mailbox. I changed my address with the U.S. Post Office well over a month ago, but I guess when UPS delivers through the USPS (as indicated by the tracking history) they don't pick up your address change? I emailed customer service today again and they said basically, "Sorry, your shipment is too far along in the order process to change or add." Too far along in the order process? Really? Do you think so? Oh yeah, you've already shipped to the wrong address this last Friday after I informed you immediately of my address change. Customer service also stated that if the package is sent back to them, they'll then forward it to me. So now I have to depend on the kindness of strangers to get my numbered edition that has since sold out? Um, thanks. Remember when they would confirm your subscription address? Why did they stop doing that? I've bought so much stuff from this site over the years. I'm a totally Dead-icated fan. I think a little more care and respect is in order here. At least enough to get my subscription to the right address. Thanks for reading my rant. Peace.

That does seem to have gone out a bit overenthusiastically. All should be good if you're logged in and posting, but if I hear otherwise I'll post it.

Hey Now! Went to download today's Jam Of The Week and the tile is gone, did you remove this feature? If so can I put in a vote to bring it back? I have been collecting these since you started and don't want to stop now. Please reconsider as this is my favorite part of the site!

Shorter than a Government Shutdown I see that the Jam of the Week is back - I feel so much better now and wondered why I didn't be like Alfred E. Neumann and say What Me Worry? It's just that the tile was gone too! And back it is with over an hour of '73 Dead from the Kiel Auditorium. Thanks, love these jams and look forward to them every week.

Hello,

This might seem like an odd question, but have you ever reconsidered listing Allen Ginsberg's site in the Family Links section in light of his association with NAMBLA?

In case you don't know, NAMBLA is a pedophile advocacy organization that has spent decades trying to repeal the age of consent and enable its members to victimize children. I'm not smearing them; they identify themselves as pedophiles.

Ginsberg openly supported this group for years, claiming to do in defense of free speech. I'd like to think that nowadays, we can perceive how disingenuous that excuse is. There's nothing democratic, liberal, progressive or anti-authoritarian about the sexual abuse of the most vulnerable members of society. And while Ginsberg is gone now, NAMBLA is still around and still using Ginsberg's membership to legitimize their abusive agenda.

I realize that Ginsberg's art has been important to a lot of people, but does that mean we need to immortalize him in perpetuity? Many people close to me have been victimized by people like Ginsberg, and it saddens me to see him posthumously propped up by the Dead organization.

I've heard rumblings that the GD and Nike have come together to design a shoe. Will this shoe be available for purchase on the website?

I was wondering the same thing as I am not a member of any of those services. Maybe they could stream it or offer it on the site. Perhaps there's some $ getting in the way? That's my guess because it's usually what gets in the way.

Or what remnant of it remains, and I guess principle are what it's about for me marye. It's seeming more and more pathetic by the day though. Maybe I should just give in so I can get more focused ads. :-)

I guess the term free is just relative now. Or, it still is relative. Oh well, I guess I will just listen to the reports of how it sounds. Enjoy streaming public! It is cool that it exists and I am happy for those folks that are grooving to it! :-P

Are you going to make more of the Dave's Picks limited edition poster? I am disappointed that long-time annual subscribers weren't notified of this, I've bought every Dick's Picks and Dave's Picks since they started. I've had the annual subscription as long as they've been offered. Would love to get one and frame it for my listening room. Any chance of that happening? On the secondary market they're priced at ~$900. C'mon...

Want to know how to make your dead freak friend happy? Gift them a grateful dead mask with the Skull and Roses Bertha skeleton displayed prominently all over it. Or, just create one for yourself!

Have a Grateful Day and make yourself happy! Shout out to my friend Mike for the stylish face covering! :-)

P.S. Got all the boats! Proving once again, me no roboto.

Hi ! For the past few years I periodically fill out the " who are you where are you ...?" yet have never received a single email from this site . Ill assume it's not just me ? Is there a way to actually get email notifications ? Also I hope to see the Advent calendar again in 2021 :)

Check your spam/junk box for the emails.

When you buy something from this site check the box at the bottom of the form that you want to receive emails.

I recently received my Dave’s Pick Winterland 2/23/74 #42, however, I was never shipped DP #40 from Noblesville.

We have also recently moved and I don’t see where I can change my address on Dead.net. Please advise.

Many Thanks,
