    1978 GD/SANTANA Glass Artwork piece
    I once found a picture of the piece I'm referring to on this website. Tonight I'm unable to find it. I'm trying to set the record straight about this piece. The paragraph that was under the photo describing it was a cute story but completely false. So please if anyone (you guys) cares or at least is curious I would love to talk to someone.I can be contacted @ Iwantalan@hotmail.com or @ 781-733-4361 Peacefully, Alan Walker 1130 Tetherow rd.

    The Dead Covers Project
    When posting to the forum I kept getting a gateway error message and I assumed my post never got submitted. I was wrong and now there are 6 or 7 posts for everytime I resubmitted. Since I really don't want to look like a spam bot and would like to share the links with this community is it possible to delete all but one of the posts? It's the one's with Into The Blue in the subject line. I'm assuming this has to be done on your end. Thanks so much.

    not sure where to post this, could you help? thanks
    Copied the below text from "Couple observations from last night" cause I would like to see the scene clean-up a bit. I sure do miss seeing the old guard around at shows. Hey I miss Jerry bout as much as anyone, but if you're alive check Furthur because they are bringing the real deal around and around, for only so long, this time. What do other Deadheads think about helping the scene be better. Are Bobby/ Phil helping the Shakedown scene happen well? Perhaps I should ask an insider, I think there's one here . . . Happy New Year! 2012. What a ripping show last night. Only Jerry's live presence could have made it better. Not to say JK isn't tearing it up, cause he is bringing the heat. The whole band is tight, in a good way. Wifey and I wondering why there aren't more pictures of Russo? I, like many Deadheads (only title I've excepted, post Garcia's passing) wonder at Mickey and Bills absence. If it's a financial decision, I am appalled. That said, Russo is excellent. I can not say one is better than another. Even JK and Jerry, sure do miss Jerry's voice and playing; if I could never hear him again and he was sitting next to me listening to Furthur that would be better than how it is. However, w/ JK all I can hope is that he plays as much, or more , than Jerry, Loves life, a bit cleaner, and rocks on and on; love that his own sound and arrangements are coming through and hoping Bobby/ Phil can support him in leading the band. Certainly Bobby/ Phil will always garnish due respect; but come-on, lead guitar drives the bus; even though everyone, even me, lead the band sometimes. It is how it is and I am loving it. Listened to a Phish show from a good friend who's never taken them in, then a week ago they came home for him. http://operationwasabi.com/nospoilers/ph2011-12-28-set1-ns.mp3 Just heard the Decemberists' version of Row Jimmy, excellent. The miracles and life lessons I've received from my years touring, taping, cooking, selling trinkets, and cleaning up, just awesome. Love, Truth, abundant. Last people in CalExpo lot, cops driving by w/ lights flashing, no sirens, me ripping djembe, girl listening, it was an excellent night, Gloria not the highlight but best version I'd heard. Lone dude crosses the lot to only other car. Shortly there-after my elbow was dripping, it's confirmed, I am home. A few days later at Laguna Seca there's Pepper fixing some dude's car, dash torn apart shoulder deep in helping another go on down the road, couple hours before LSD start time (that's Laguna Seca Days) That's what's missing from the Furthur scene: family. We've received criticism from folks for having our children at the shows . . . I am seriously sorry folks missed the scene "back in the day," but it's simple, LOVE/ TRUTH. So what's with the hating? Phish rips, you don't like em don't listen, maybe one day you'll like them, maybe not. If I know one thing in this life: keep an open mind, make no decision before it's time. No Time to Hate. Be Here Now. At the Merch. table inside they hand out little advertisement/ setlist stiffys. It's not my gig, mostly cause if the music is on I'm gigging. I've loved tracking the setlists and often have notes of jams not caught in other lists, but, while I'm writing I'm missing something, sometimes that's OK. Kind of like a camera, a little separated from the experience while I'm trying to frame and capture it, best done for me in moving meditation. Last night ripped! So looking forward to re-cast in an hour. I love that people are willing to put opinions out, hash it out a bit, contemplate. Nice to have a forum, other than AA/ NA where folks communicate without interruption. Although the Dead shows of yore there were multiplicities of verbal and non that were w/o interruption. I could walk through entire shows, and I'm saying all over, w/o bumping another but lightly, respectfully and with notice, care, and communication. Bringing the vibe to Furthur: remove the Crack, H, Nitrous, X; propensities. Bring back the LOVE/ TRUTH. Quick shout out to John Dwork and hARRY hAHN. LOVE YOU GUYS! Time Is A Stripper Doing It Just For You. Don't miss it Hating.

If you do not know where you downloaded your file (it's the default place where ALL your downloads go if you didn't specify @ dload time)....I don't know if you have a MAC or WINBLOWS but just do a search for this~~~~> newspeedwayboogie Copy and paste that into your search and you will find the file...make sure that the date you put the file in was yesterday.

CC: thanx, I have Windows. Did the search, "no file found." I have just downloaded today's Dark Star, and did it differently, I hit 'Save' the file, yesterday I did 'Open.' I must not have the newspeedwayboogie saved anywhere. Any chance I can get another chance to download newspeedwayboogie? Appreciate the help. :-)))

I can't get registered here ... about to give up. I tried to register as marshallstax but it keeps saying my email is already in use... it might be because due to getting replys in my spam folder I also registered as mstax. I WANT TO REGISTER AS MARSHALLSTAX NOT MSTAX!! Much more of your catch-22 games and I'll just give up... life's too short for the hassle just to get registered here!

Click the Grateful Dead bar at the top of the page to get back to the homepage. Click the 30 Days of Dead link to get to today's page. Scroll down the page to the track of the day. Click Listen to stream and click Download to download. It seems to be working fine now; it may have been acting up when you tried earlier, so please try it again. Thanks.

I don't know if this question is in the right place but would it be possible to have back covers with track listings available for downloads also a track list of the show when you click on it before deciding to purchase would be a great help.

Where are the links to downloads?Make it a sticky at the top of the page so others can find them too- Many are asking this same question.

how much stickier you can get than a big honking link smack dab in the middle of the homepage... Now it is possible that something may not be working properly, but it's not like the page is invisible. I've noticed some issues this morning myself, and reported them.

Hi folks--

We knew you were going to love 30 Days of Dead. We may have underestimated how much.

The original plan, as we said in the beginning, was that each day's stream and download would only be available for that day. Well, demand was so high that many folks had trouble connecting and downloading, so we've kept each day's files available short-term while we addressed the technical issues.

Once we've got those issues resolved and the downloads are going smoothly, we'll be removing the archive of previous days' files. We will give an advance warning before we do this. Meanwhile, here's a list of links to date  so you can download what you may have missed. Thanks!

I had an uncle who was kind of a hippie, and he took me to a free concert in Piedmont Park in Atlanta GA in July of 1973, right before my 13th birthday. I never remembered the name of the band, but I was drawn to the Dead as a college kid and saw them 126 times before Jerry passed. Well, a couple months ago, one of the shows played on the xm radio noon concert was from 7-7-1973, Atl GA. This show is not listed on the website, but I could swear that this was the show my uncle took me to. The story the dj on xm said was that the free concert happened the day after a really hot Allman Bros show and had something to do with the promoter showing his appreciation to the city's music fans. Can someone out there verify that show happened, and if so, how can I get a copy? Nothin' left to do but smile, smile, smile!

I would try buying what you need else where.. If you order here you will probably only get a partial order and be waiting for a response from the $$$ hungry people here.. I am still waiting to hear back about the missing CD from my order of Jerry's new album releases.. Ordered the bundle and only get one CD.. Now thats how a company can make $$$ only ship half the order.. Good luck to those who order from this sight..

please send me a PM with the details and I'll try to get it straightened out. built, as I understand it it's no longer necessary to have a separate account for the Store, but let me verify that. It's a holiday weekend, so I may not hear back on this till Monday. Thanks.
