Hold on to your hat, we're coming in strong with one from the Windy City that'll have you movin' and shakin' from start to finish. DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 31: UPTOWN THEATRE, CHICAGO, IL 12/3/79 signals a true rebirth of the Grateful Dead, reimagining classics and foreshadowing their 80s sound. This is as much in part due to freshly-minted member Brent Mydland bringing the organ back in as it is to Jerry finding new vivacity with his custom Wolf guitar. New guy, new guitar - it all makes for a heck of a good time!

Set One rolls like never-ending thunder with one standout after another - truly epic versions of "Brown-Eyed Women," "Ramble On Rose," "It's All Over Now," "Althea," and "The Music Never Stopped." Set Two hits with a crack of not-so-lazy lightning, barreling through an outrageous 28-minute "Scarlet>Fire" to a unique “Lost Sailor>Saint of Circumstance” and wrapping with a "blow the roof off the place" version of "Truckin'" and a rippin' "Johnny B. Goode." Ready for some quiet after the storm? You'll have to wait a just a little bit longer - we've filled in the gap on Disc 3 with a sprinkle of 12/4/79 - "Estimated>Franklin's Tower>" and an incredibly improvised “Jam.”

Limited to 20,000 numbered copies, DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 31: UPTOWN THEATRE, CHICAGO, IL 12/3/79 has been mastered from Dan Healy's cassette recordings to HDCD specs by David Glasser at Airshow Mastering.

If I want to get jazzy ,…

If I want to get jazzy , spacey and ripping 74 jamming should I spend 75$ on Dave’s picks 13 or 17? I’m just looking for opinions, I’m going to give the archives a sit down over the weekend and also see what the new box set is, because I’m financially going to have make a decision and if the box set is a smoker it’ll have the potential to sell out like Europe 72(4 days!!!!, infuckingsane!) so I’m not about to let it slip by! I’d jump on Europe 72 if i had the chance ( at 400$ not the 1200
It’s going for now) , hoping it gets a 2022 anniversary rerelease. I’m not to sure if I’ll jump on the new box set it if it’s post 77 and over 150$ but 77 & earlier I’m almost certain I’ll get it!!!!

I’m disgusted. Been buying the series since Dicks picks era. Been in the UK that long as well. All fine till now. Without warning, explanation or apparent concern you change international charges mid 2019 subscription. £73 on top. If you want to drive folk to just consume via archive.org this is the route. But if you do care then this needs to be fixed. Instead of a looked forward to listening experience I receive a USP ticket for more money.

Anyone done a 101 in CX? I’m pissed!

Looking at the FAQ page I…

Looking at the FAQ page I found this:

“A Note To International Customers

If you order products for delivery to a shipping address outside the United States or Canada, you will be responsible for any and all import taxes, tariffs and duties which may be levied by your Customs or Government or Other Authority upon any parcel we send to you. Please note: taxes/duties are calculated based on the original retail price of the items in your order and does not include any discounts or promotions.”

I’m happy to pay all of these items but why the hell do I have to pay freight charges of more than £73 to get something I have already paid delivery charges on?

I’ve emailed drrhino and got an automated response saying I’ll get a reply in 5days, let’s hope the delivery people will wait that long.

Milka What???

Direwulf......who you calling a bad role model......I resent, er a resemble that remark! Lol
Dennis....who you calling old..... ; >)

MUDSTOCK 94....was at station across the street night before setting up merch tent (worked for NFA), then shipped downto original site, with a couple side trips to Freedom Festival, finally got back up to Sagurties main site and was taken in special service road in the back of a pickup around midnight.....phew, totally surreal! Saw some Metallica (I think it was that night) on second stage from afar, eventually saw Aerosmith on big stage that went on? really late, remember strangling back to the companies rented house like a mile away near dawn....so nice to have dry place to sleep and shower!
Sunday was given the day off so saw end of Arrested Development, The Allman Bothers with a very young Dereck sitting in for Same Thing. Also Traffic, Jimmy Cliff and Santana. Quite the day! Walked into town middle of day to a neighborhood bar and had awesome beer & Pizza, and watched Porn for pyros on the pay per view with a bunch of locals, that was interesting! Tried to see Dylan but it was such a quagmire and I had messed up my knee in all the mud so that’s when I went a saw Jimmy C instead, or perhaps that’s when Metallica? Sorry, all a big blur now..”all the years combine, and melt into a dream”. Unfortunately, didn’t get to see the Band as we were stuck down at original site, which is ironic since we worked with them a lot in those days....
Next day, Monday, on site to breakdown our store was like walking around a war zone, sans dead bodies, shit just everywhere. People had abandoned all kinds of stuff, brand new tents, you name it.....folks we’re driving around just loading up all kinds of great ground scores, me, I scooped up some mud, which I still have in sealed glass mason jar. Figured it was the best possible souvenir considering.....
Anyway, it was an experience of a lifetime, all those people, unfathomable, and didn’t see one single bad scene the whole time!

Erowid

That site has a ton of useful and interesting information. I suspect that I am an outlier in the general population as far as trips taken, maybe not so much so in certain groups. My best estimate based on frequency x time is somewhere between 250-300 most over a core period of about 5 years. I just really liked tripping. Funny, I never really "quit", I just realized at some point that it had been years, now decades since I last tripped. But I remember...

Altamont 50th - It's doable!

CSN , Santana, Stones are still around and touring; Hot Tuna can stand in for the Airplane; Chris Hillman for the Flying Burritos; invite Dead & Co , and make sure they cancel;. It wouldn't be a proper Altamont feast without Sonny Barger and his pals, and luckily he's still around. Did I leave anything out? Who is in??

Damn Kids

The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room.

Hippies in the Yard

I personally would love to have the 300,000 hippies in my backyard....it would be a nice visual improvement to my neighbors above ground pool. All joking aside, the bastards built this thing and then a deck to go around it almost to my property line here in KC suburbia. Being the kind neighbor that I am, I did not report them to the city, but I had to build a Trump Wall (10 foot cedar privacy fence) so that I don't have to look at them every time I walk out my backyard.

The hippies would surely want magic carpet rides if they were here......especially with a certain Dave's release and box set announcement due to hit the streets any moment now....this could pose logistical problems.

Would also have to improve the overall sound system and PA or there would likely be a riot. Currently I am listening mostly from my phone and/or computer which I plug into my Pioneer receiver/amplifier via RCA cables. The speakers are SVS book shelves which were a nice improvement over the Bose 301 speakers that I was using.

My turntable is a Planar One which is Planar's lowest end turntable, but sounds amazing. The dude at the store says that the sound would be noticeably better if I updated the cartridge which would I think would cost $100 -$200, or much more, depending on the version of the upgrade. Vinyl is my preferred method of listening if the music is available on vinyI and if convenient, ie not traveling).

I have mentioned, I do not have a CD player other than in my car, so I am probably missing out on some sound quality listening to GD music (Dave's picks and boxsets) as digital downloads from the CD's as opposed to the CD's themselves. My personal opinion is that if you buy the CD (at least for box sets where a download is offered), you should receive access to the higher quality FLAC/ALAC download in order to receive the highest quality fidelity. As it stands now if you want the highest fidelity, and you want the boxset packaging along with liner notes for your collection, then you have to buy both. Regardless, I should probably buy a CD player with a high quality dac, and I think the sound would be better.

I also have a surround sound system which is connected to my TV and a Blu Ray player, plus very standard audio-technica turntable. Sound is good, but not as good as my main system as the speakers are smaller, I do have a sub on this system which makes the bass punchier, and I have thought about purchasing a SVS sub on my main system. I do not like listening to CD music through the blue ray. Just doesn't sound as good to me and the interface is always clunky.

I do agree with KeithFan in that one should listen to each release through a set of decent headphones if you have them available. The sound stage is definitely different. My best headphones are also audio-technica, and not super high end, but they still sound great and different from my home system.

FourWindsBlow - That would indeed be an incredible boxset. Was it you that originally suggested Giants stadium shows?....I think you may be on to something with this east coast thing. The boxset you suggest has something to make all the era chasers happy...60's, 70's, 80's & 90's....Oh My!!!

Direwulf - Thanks for the article on acid. Far out read, and informative, but seems I need to expand my circle of friends. If I had to guess, might be some of those younger folks who could show me the light.....but that older stuff sounds nice too....always good to have choices....I'm stuck in the middle

Jim...holy shit man....it's Friday here too!!! There goes that synchronicity again....never fails! Have fun on your daily outdoor adventure while listening to the greatest band in the world!!! Looks like a nice day here, but would be a lot better if my Dave's copy were to arrive.

I'm flying out tomorrow morning for The Big Easy. And speaking of old people, my Wife's grandparents live down there and are both celebrating 96th birthdays and over 70 years of marriage. Wife's aunt owns a house down there. Wife's father was trying to set a new record with over 10 family members staying in said house. I outsmarted him and booked a room in the French Quarter for 4 nights.....send me a PM if any of you are in the area....I'm calling it "Operation Dakota"....hoping for good weather, but Looks Like Rain.....

If all goes well, I will come back to a mailbox filled with great music that will prep me for MUATM on August 1st. If things go wrong, I will send out a GoFundMe Link for bail money.....wish me luck folks!

LMG - I'm Confused...

In an earlier post you said you had gone blind ( |9/8/2019| "Asince ive lost my sight , my other senses are on overdrive!"), and in your most recent post you said you have seen the newest Dave's Picks 32 concept art, ( | 09/21/2019 | "I have been fortunate enough to view an art proof /concept for the cover forDaves Pick #32It’s my favorite cover for the series for this past years My favorite was Daves Pick #31 until I saw this proof sheet" "The art proof I sawhad no date or concert venue..."). I'm not trying to be the bad guy here but i've been hearing these contradicting quotes from you and am not sure what to make of it. I have a relative that is blind and it just rubs me the wrong way when I suspect people might be faking blindness for whatever reason.

lMG /confusion....

A Good morning to all my brothers & sister still awake from the night before or just waking up around this hour.While I’m being treated going on my second week for another round of treatments, tests,and several operations since day one , I realize now thats causing the confusion in between my tecemts posts.what I haven’t been doing is and that is I’m not keeping everyone(members) on this board up to date. I’ve only been communicating with only a handful of close friends here on the Dead site, and I apologize for any confusion. I just didn’t think it would be appreciate to. Keep filling up the pages posts up on my daily treatment for my cancer. I have a tumor in my brain the size of a golf ball,2-3cm big, which is very large and it wasn’t there a year ago when the doctors took scanned of my brain. And the tumor is pressing against my skull and brain effecting my optyic neve things all big science talk I’m not really educated enough to explain everything what’s happening in only laymen’s terms if you get my grift. I had surgery to drain the pression in my skull brain. I had a spinal tap on last Friday as well, which also causes the brain to swell while they drain the fluid from my spinal fluid which the doctor places the needle into what look like little sacks rrunning thru your spinal cord. Because I’ve had mutitable back surgeries / I have two 8” rods in my back with a cage. Screws. And fusion as well over 12”. Since the. First round of draining has effected improvement in my vision, I’m not completely blind as of right now. But according to the doctors, (I have a team of doctors All working together to improve my quality way of life) My vision is still considered “legally blind” but I can see a little and my perspective is off. I’m an artist and I just now been doing art therapy while being in treatment. One day at a time for me right now and I’m really just so grateful to be alive, words can’t express my graditude enough! I have three young children I’m raising, I have a whole life that has been recently turned upside down. Last week they also told be they found another tumor on one of my glands above your Brest bone and inbetween York’s chin and throat the size of a grape tomato that wasn’t there a year ago as well so I’m prepping for surgery to have the tumor and gland removed. The doctors assure me I can live and survive with out the gland which actually works and operate your immune system , almost like MS - multiple scoliosis . IV been screened for that with the spinal tap and also the doctors will scfteen my spinal fluid to see or find any infection within my brain. The tumor is on my right side of the brain , almost in the middle of my brain but it lays in the canal Kravis Which is the area of the brain where it splits into two. Excuse my writing I’m talking into my phone. So , I hope that helps with the confusion. Why would someone fake being blind is beyond me but there are a lot of coo birds out there your right about their. Me, I’m just an old Deadhead starting in the 70s... have a grateful day everyone god bless and rocknon! 🙏❤️😎💀🌹🙏💀🌹

Good ole DHL

Having been told yesterday it was coming Mr DHL knocked this morning with my 31 🍾🍾 note to rhino - dump UPS and stick with DHL
Had the scarlet on in the car on the way to work and it’s splendiferous .
RIP Robert - may those four winds blow you safely home .

Good News Perithecat

What number did you get? I'm glad the problems are getting resolved and I hope everyone will have their sets soon.

Have a grateful day everybody! :-)

DHL Dap31

Really high 19,768 . But at least it turned up . 😺

Not happy with Rhino & UPS

Sorry, but I'm not happy at all about how the UPS Customs Issue was handled. I'm in Scotland, UK and Emailed Dr. Rhino several times (including pics of the customs label etc). I received no reply, other than a standard ”we will respond in 5 working days”. But no response at all received. My local delivery agent returned the CDs to the USA because I wouldn't pay the $70+ charge. I also received a demand in the mail from UPS. I received no advice or guidance as to what to do, or what recourse or remedy is open to me! I'm out-of-pocket & I have no #31 to listen to. We who live overseas already pay ’over-the-score’ for product & shipping - and it's particularly exorbitant in the UK currently due to exchange-rate issues. This episode has left a sour taste - but what's worse is how, as an overseas subscriber, I was totally ignored. Shame on Rhino, in my case, for appalling customer-service...

So now that the debacle of…

So now that the debacle of the #31 shippping has apparently been sorted out and the Giants box is out, when will we know what #32 will be? I'm sure David is itching to film a seaside chat soon! I don't recall how the timing of the announcements typically goes, but I presume we hear sometime in early Nov? Anybody want to make some guesses?

Not sorted

It doesn't look as though the debacle surrounding delivery of 31 has been resolved, looking at recent posts. Maybe the next time we have a seaside chat these issues will be addressed, with an explanation as to how they have been resolved.

Giants Box Out

As I’ve said before I don’t expect to see the box for a while yet. But, out of interest, has anyone in Europe had notice of the box being shipped?
As for DaP32 I look forward to it whatever year it is from.

Love Supreme

So anyone notice that Phil plays a repeated 2 note section in the Playing jam that references A Love Supreme? Starts around minute 8 and continues for ca. 1/2 minute. Friend called my attention to it awhile ago.

Love this release. Whole show excellent. Jack-a-Roe is flat out fantastic, a favorite version (along with a couple from '77.) The Usbourne matrix on archive is real sweet if you find the SB a tad dry.

Colin - European shipping

At this moment the shipping status of my order for the box to the Netherlands is "Not shipped". The order is "processing ". Or not...

Daves Picks 32

Checked over my emails from last year and it seemed around 10/12 the 4th daves was available for pre order. Hopefully that’s the same! Happy Listening to all

SIMONROB - Shipping

I'm in San Francisco bay area, and my order has also been stuck in "processing" for a while...no idea what's going on with their distribution.

Giants box, DaP 31 trouble

No Giants Box in the Netherlands

A credit invoice of $ 81,88 for DaP 31, so that seems settled.

Looking forward to Giants Box ad DaP 31 delivery without a hassle...

Rhino? no? slow? blows!

I ordered a couple of those Halloween t-shirts a couple of weeks ago and then had to cancel the order, no response except the standard 3 to 5 days reply, still no response, so I disputed the charge on my credit card. They are suppose to ship the 11th of this month. It would serve them right if they shipped the shirts, then I got a credit for the shirts, dead justice if I ever heard it. Oh well, rhino, so sad.

I'm baaack

But just briefly. Two quick observations:
First, WHAT the hell happened to this board??? It seems this board is now dominated by customer service and international shipping gripes. Not sure how we got there - maybe the new format that makes it harder to post ( I think) therefore people only comment if they're frustrated enough for the multi click login. And whatever dialogue there is then gets turned into interpersonal questioning of motives (ie: the questioning the guy as to whether or not he's ACTUALLY blind - really?.... its not like you're fully sighted one day and totally blind the next - I've had some exposure to this through friends).
Second, I was tooling around eBay the other day and noticed that DaP1-DaP8 generally sell for well over $100-250. With a few highball "Buy it Now"s set at $200-400, yet the shows form the past 2 years tend to sell used under the $30 original price. There's dozens of each advertised as "buy it now" for $100, but the live auctions indicate they'll sell for less than $30. So they jumped from 12k/yr to 20k/year but the incremental demand seems to be driven by resale spec.... it seems the bloom is off the rose for the resale market. The scalpers buy 'em all up, but there's so many on eBay now they'll have to wait forever to get any return on them. I'm sure they're recognizing this. Would be nice if the actual heads got 'em and not the scalpers, as with tickets.
Sorry if that's 2 kinda negative comments, but there's not much other dialogue to chime in on.

DA32

What do we got? Fa72?

Thin

Before you go...if there is no dialogue here that interest you, why not start one that does? The more people stay away, the narrower it is likely to become.

*re/ Giants Box , daves Pick #32, and the Blind Man From the Nor

.... hello again my brothers & sisters , hope to find everyone is well and safe on this dreary day in October here in the north country...
Been enjoying the Giants box set for the last few weeks. I’m very grateful for this release and I believe the good ol’ dead delivers on this primo 2019 Giants Boxset. The audio is A+++ thru out the complete set...., Notheni gs perfect but this is pretty close for my taste in Grateful Dead primo Audio Quality !
I believe the three different eras represented in this box makes it very universally welcomed from all dead kinds of different and respected fans ...also the art crew involved did a beautiful job, the whole team. Grateful for that too.
Daves pick #32,Nov. 1st...“something new, something blue...”. “ , a greatful Closing for the 2019 Daves Pick series.... 🙏❤️😎
....Speaking Of Blind Men, anyone a fan of the three blind boys from Alabama ?! Love it!
https://youtu.be/B0EN_Hmq534
Listening to Daves Pick #2 to prepair my hearing for the next Daves Pick announcement coming purty soon if I remember correctly ...
Have a grateful day folks! Peace be with you all, Rock On! 😎✌️

DaP’s

THIN

If heads want the DaP releases the easiest way to try to get them (delivery willing) is to pre-order the years releases. If they can’t do that then they need to keep an eye on dead.net and order the ones they want as soon as they are released.

If my complaints about delivery problems upset you in some way then I ask your forgiveness. However, your upset is likely to be less than that felt by those of us who were being asked to pay ridiculously high delivery charges.

I would love to join in on the discussions about the quality of the Giants box set but since it hasn’t arrived yet any comments I might make will have to wait.

Betty Board or Rex

Could be either one. Rex taped 4/2/73 DaP 21 (one of, if not the best sounding tapes in the Series), and a lot of his tapes were in Betty's collection as they were married. I think Kidd taped 3/28/73 DaP 16. Guess we'll find out in 3 weeks. Looking forward to this one, and love the artwork!

Trucking>Jam>Spanish Jam then the shortest dark star ever less than 4 minutes. DaP 32 is going to be a sweet one, can't wait to hear how they are going to clean up that Bertha start and some of those tape flips. Good luck Mr. Norman. Do a good job, take your time, we will all appreciate it.

Makes me think Rex tape on 10 inch reels like 4/2/73. But Betty or Rex or Kidd doesn't make any difference to me. Looks to be a very good show on the back end of a very good tour.

Just seen it along with the cover art on Ebay !

Anticipating the…

Anticipating the announcement for Daves Picks 2020 subscriptions any day now it usually coincides with the Grateful Dead Almamac. Better warn the wife to have her cc ready since the second year this is my Christmas present from her, she hates it because she doesn't have to go shopping for it. I know the 2020 calendar is available for sale Michael DuBois is the artist for next years calendar. All I can say BIO & PD
BRING IT ON
PLAY DEAD

DaP31

Not a bad show the band really gets going by wharf rat which is typical for a first night of a three night run.

UPS blues again

Hello Marye
Hoping you can point me in the right direction on this. I live in Canada and received a shipping invoice related to DaP 31. I emailed Dr. Rhino 3 times in August but no answer. UPS told me it was resolved when I called them in September, but then I just received a collection notice. I've emailed UPS again and Dr. Rhino again, but anything you can do to help would be gratefully appreciated! Thank you!
