Grateful Dead

The Warlock box set is apparently back in stock.

He blocked Asswipe Jack Daw's PMs, and those are 100% worthless trash. I have a collection of them, and I can't find anyone to take them! 6/9-10/73 is too legendary to remain unreleased (barring serious legal/financial reasons), but 5/26/73 is the Summer '73 show close to my heart (got hi-qual tapes early in my collecting. Moved to SF in '94 and discovered Kezar Stadium a few blocks from my apartment! Zeppelin were there 6/2/73, also circulating on tape. So much smaller venue than I ever imagined [High School "stadium", not MLB "stadium"!])

I'm signed up for 6/10/73 I love how that guy distorts reality. we have releases today because of In the Dark. What a maroon. Epic fail. and how does that logic explain why Dave's Picks is doing so much better than Road Trips? There was an uptick in sales between the two series, as well as an uptick in Dave's Picks production / sales by 33% since its flagship year. In the Dark factors into that 33%...let's see.....zero. The reason we have releases today is because Dave's Picks has been successful. I would give more credit to Dead & Co touring and the Dead's 50th anniversary. Not to discount the importance of In the Dark, it brought a lot of people on board. But if they had all stayed on board, Dave's Picks would be selling 4x as much. At least 50% of new fans dropped off, and the base remained. My freakin' sister bought In the Dark, and wait, my DAD bought In the Dark. And that's the only one.

I have been at odds with you since essentially day one on this site over your delusional posts. As a peace offering, I publicly offered to help fund the purchase of your box set. Which I did. So how did you repay everyone's generosity? By continuing to be an ungrateful troll. To this very day in fact. Out of respect for others, I called you out privately and you blocked me. Good move. Now I get to call you out publicly. I am also the guy who tried to arrange funding for the TTATS box set for two folks who's medical bills kept them from purchasing the release. Surprisingly, even though you received a free box set, you were NOT among those who stepped forward to assist. The way I see it, that $20 was the best money I ever spent. You will have it hanging over your head for the rest of your days. Or until you decide to wake up and change your behavior. My apologies to all here, except Frank.

Ignore all this stupid fighting and be aware that the rumours are getting stronger about 8 Dead & Co dates in Europe after Lockn', starting in Amsterdam. Us Euroheads could never afford to be picky, we are just grateful for whoever crosses the pond whatever decade it happens to be. Any kind thoughts to help make this happen are most appreciated. CB

And hats off to Jim and Keithfan for not just staying out of the muck, but offering something unifying. I don't post as often as I'd like (but more than some care for heee heee), but I do read every day and dysfunctional though we may be at times, we are the Dead family. We listen every day, we hang on every release, every scrap of news, every note of every song. Let's do something fun for a change and see if we can get a thousand pledges.

I pledged to buy TWO

Put down the swords, pick up the pens. Deadheads unite! We can all agree on RFK '73. We're getting the 6/9 & 6/10 1973 petition going. We'll convince Rhino to release it; we'll get our group noted in the liner notes ("rabid Deadheads from the deadnet message boards"??); we'll get mentioned on Dave's Seaside chat! Just go to the 6/10/73 show link and put "Release" as the subject and "I'll buy it" in the comment field. Several already have. Woooooooo http://www.dead.net/show/june-10-1973

KF, I will attest that 6-10-73 is my Nameday. I conclude that because of this, GD has inherently been lurking inside my body until I was 13 years old and had my first listen to 'Samson & Delilah' from Dead Set....it was at that moment the truth of this fact arose from my innards to usher me onto The Bus. If for no other reason, this is as good a reason as any to offer it to the masses. Oh, and it effing ROCKS!! Nice work. Sixtus

Remember this - you DO attack people who have said nothing ill to you, and that is TROLLING. You are a troll. Everyone here knows it but you. My proof is right here: Quote from you to me: "This Wharf Rat rocks and the vocals are excellent. Tinnitus perhaps?....or you just hate Brent?" Quote from you to the rest: "If so-called fans listen to that Let It Grow from the Listening Party, and still pass on this, they might as well quit listening to the Dead all together and sell or trade their collections for Kid Rock albums. That's about as lame as they are." Be a man and own up to your words. And don't ever paint yourself as someone who does not attack others who have never said an ill word toward you. And here are the transcripts, because frankly, you try to muddle history and I wouldn't put it past you to erase these entries with something like rainbows and sunshine. ################################################################################################## September 30, 2017 - 2:13pm #1335 SPACEBROTHER SPACEBROTHER's picture Offline Joined: Jun 4 2007 Send PM ah geez This Wharf Rat rocks and the vocals are excellent.

It's one of their best fucking eras. I consistently pony up for the Dave's picks series in support for the cause to get more releases like this. If so-called fans listen to that Let It Grow from the Listening Party, and still pass on this, they might as well quit listening to the Dead all together and sell or trade their collections for Kid Rock albums. That's about as lame as they are. Top reply October 30, 2017 - 4:15pm #1205
