    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.

    saw Rocketman in theater
    loved it

    we happened to start up the recent "A Star is Born" with Lady Gaga on cable last night

    we stuck it out, but what a bland, slow, overly-long cliched flick. You couldn't understand a word the lead guy and Sam Shepard were saying. Low Talkers (Seinfeld reference) and gravelly. "uuhhhh muhh muhhhhhh..." "I want to sing my songs!" says Lady Gaga. "huhhhhyhuhhh...duuuhhhhhhuhhhuhhhh..."

    SPEAK UP, MOFO.

    On the bright side, you do get a few fleeting glimpses of LG in the altogether...no complaints on THAT.

    smoke em if you got em

    when I was in the military, cigarettes cost .25 cents a pack, 2.50 a carton with no tax. When I first started smoking they were 35 cents a pack in the machines, that anyone could access, including 12 year old kids like me. The term smoke 'em if you got em' I think originated in the military, at least that's where I first heard it. In basic training "boot camp" you were not allowed to smoke, at all, so you went cold turkey. Then, after about 6 weeks, they would light the smoking lamp, and we would get to smoke. The first time I heard that term was then, Drill sergeant says, "smoke em if you got em, the smoking lamp is lit". I had no idea what a "smoking lamp" was but I soon found out it meant time to light up and it was a mad dash for the door to find one and get one lit. They were nasty and mean about it, gave you about 3 minutes to get a cig, run outside, light it and try and get a hit before they ran you back inside again. That was the first time I ever got a "buzz" from cigarettes. We hot boxed those things, due to withdrawal and desire and actually got off, dizzy more than anything, so running back into the barracks was not as easy as it sounds, a lot of staggering and falling down for some, or hands on knees with head down until the dizzies went away. If you were late, you got to run off that cigarette on the drill field for about an hour or so. I should have quit then, but I didn't want to, if you don't want to quit them, you never will, you must have the will to say no more, and mean it. Or you can wait till you can't breath anymore, that is also a good deterrent to smoking. Yes, disgusting, filthy, stinking unacceptable now days habit, and yet, they are legal to purchase at any convenience store. Weed is much better for you but it isn't very good for your lungs either, but who smokes 2 or 3 packs of joints a day? not even Tommy Chong I bet. (I could be wrong about that :) )

    Worse thing EVER!

    Like Led said, pretty much did everything but only regret the cancer sticks.....funny thing is, I didn’t really start until I was 28, Living with that 20 year old I told ya about....she did.....sure I used to have one out at a bar once in a great while but I was not a cough, cough, “tabacoo” user until then. Started part time, would buy the roll your own, you know occasionally rolling one up, then when I went back to college, since you had to now go outside, I didn’t have time to walk out there, spin one up, smoke, and then make to next class etc......so I start buying generic, like buck a pack thinking “yea, the way I occasionally smoke a pack will last me forever......cue the dark, evil, insidious music!
    So of course once you have em in your pocket and all ya have to do is spark one up.........add to that everyone around me then smoked so of course I became addicted. The thing is, I could quit pretty easy, luckily, I was fortunate to be able to do this with a lot of things.....once I made up my mind I’d just ween myself off and make sure I wouldn’t be around “whatever” and the people and most importantly the triggers etc....Tabacoo was always the hardest, but I was never a heavy smoker unless up parting all night, usually less than a pack a day. Loved the Camel wides, but got into all the boutique shit when I moved to CO where they have those smoke shops....
    Anyways would go back and forth quitting, and getting readdicted over and over thinking I could “part time” it.
    Then I started to smoke a pipe for a while because I thought that way I wouldn’t smoke as much, you know, part time.....then tried same with cigars etc, tried it all, but always would end up fully addicted. Finally after about 15 years while I was playing music for a living I got the notion that I’d just bye the Banjo player a pack now and then and just have him feed me a few during gigs, and not have any at home or around me etc. That’s the thing about playing; there’s often a lot of anxious waiting around to play etc, so smoking really helped that. Well of course that “part time” trick didn’t work either. So finally, about fifteen years ago I finally realized, just like twelve step “I’m an addict”, I’m addicted to nicotine and it’s either all or nothing, there is no part time! Once I fully realized that, it was the end of the season at work, so I knew I’d not be around anyone for a month or so, plus I was getting a respitory bug so I knew I wouldn’t want to for a few days anyway, so that cave me the perfect opportunity to quit yet again. This time though, armed with my new found realization there was no way I was going to tell myself I can part time it, you know “I can control this”........no, your an addict, so no you can’t etc.......that was how I finally gave the nasty shit up and have never ever wanted one again. Luckily, once enough time goes by your body starts to change and triggers like smelling it where you used to get enticed, eventually you realize just how nasty the shit smells, and it becomes a turn off etc and you feel so much better. Interesting, in 1984 when I gave up meat the same thing happened; instead of getting all salivating and hungry when someone was cooking meat, it started to smell like nasty searing flesh. This doesn’t bother me so much now, perhaps because I do eat the dirty bird now, but years ago I’d have to leave the room....
    Supposedly your lungs can heal a bit, but I’m worried that between the years I did smoke, and all the second hand exsposure, and all the shitty work environments I’ve been in, I’m going to be fucked....my old man smoked around us, not all over the house but down in his workshop, all the bars, and places I lived, hell people smoked on planes back in the day, everywhere! Ridiculous! The biggest tell is when you visit friends who still smoke in thier houses and as soon as you walk in it’s overwhelming. You feel so bad because it’s awful, but it’s your peeps so what do you do? I try to make it so we have to go out somewhere to meet up just so I don’t have to deal with that. Now I’m not some reformed nazi, I’m from the ilk that you do what you want as long as it doesn’t hurt others, like “jumping off that balcony” ,you want to drive with no seat belt, or not wear a helmet, or smoke, that’s your choice.
    It’s just personally I can’t take it anymore, it makes me ill......plus you have to go through theconstant waiting around factor like Led said and it’s just a drag.....listen to this for a humorous take on all that....

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LyYLrVNKE68

    The worst is these kids that are getting addicted by all this vape shit. It’s such a shame after so many years of dramatic Tabacoo decline that the numbers are going back up among kids. Please, don’t mean to preach, but don’t do it chilrens!! Just ask my old man; started when basically a child, finally quit in his sixties, but ended up with Lung Cancer about four years ago. Luckily he has always gotten a yearly chest ex ray since he worked in a steel plant for forty years, so they caught it early. Thought they got it with radiation, but unfortunately a year later it had spread to hip and Adrenal gland......got the hip with radiation, but the adrenal tumor is never going away. The only reason he’s still alive is because of some new drug that works with his immune system to “maintain” the tumor. At his age they won’t remove the gland, and chemo, at the small doses he could take, wasn’t going to do it, so he was fortunate that he qualified for this drug which has worked miracles.
    Please, if your even thinking about smoking, or need some help quitting, just go sit in the lobby of the chemo ward at your local cancer center for just an hour or two, if that doesn’t do the trick......trust me, it’s eye opening!!
    Sorry to go on, but it’s something pretty heavy that we deal with everyday so if I can get even one person to quit, or more importantly, never start,.....well, sorry, thanks for letting me vent.......
    Now please back to our collective “waiting on a miracle”........dammit Dave, it’s a good thing I don’t smoke anymore or this anticipation stress would make me a human chimney!

    Smoking

    Filthy fucking habit.

    My father smoked, he was a non filtered camel fan. He complained about cost and said when the got to .50 cent a pack he was done, just wasn't going to pay that for a pack of butts. They hit 50 and he quit, period!

    Fast forward and during a divorce I started smoking at 23. Smoked into my 50's. On and off at the end. Everytime I quit I used patches. I'd wear the big one for maybe 30 days and be smoking at first while wearing it. I started paring them down until I quit. Everytime I went back it was a stupid decision. Thought I'd have one,,,,wrong. Been off the nicotine about 7 years, maybe 8. Lungs may not get better, but at least I don't have the expense or cough up black shit while in the shower! Now I know I can NEVER have one,,, I won't even do wraps from tobacco products, too afraid I'll start again.

    Worst habit EVER!

    Cousin & the Nat Box

    Thanks for the heads up. I real big fan of Nat. Guess I'll get this in November. It was nice to see the page talk about his piano playing. I heard someone years ago on a Jazz station talking about King and he was saying about how everyone raves about the singer, but forget he was voted (downbeat?) piano player of the year 3 or 4 years in a row.

    To anyone interested, pick up his "after midnight sessions" album, very, very, very nice! (do 3 very's make it primo? :-) )

    Really great album, let me know and I'll get you a copy.

    Up in smoke

    I smoked dope before I smoked cigarettes. During my teens I would eat it, or smoke it in a pipe, but the culture in England at that time-mid 1970s - was to smoke cannabis with tobacco in a joint. Inevitably, this was what I started doing, and after a year or so, by the age of about 23, I graduated to the hard stuff...pre rolled, non enhanced packets of 20 cigarettes. I didn't stop until I was 51-I am now 62.
    The daftest thing I ever did was pour water on the remaining few in a packet...and then wake up in the night and try to dry them out in the cooker so I could have one last smoke. Smoking with a nicotine patch on my arm wasn't too clever, either!

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.

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! 🙏❤️😎💀🌹🙏💀🌹

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 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?

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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...

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.

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.

.... 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! 😎✌️

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.

Much like Mister Charlie, we've got a little warning for ya. Tie a ribbon around your finger because DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 32: THE SPECTRUM, PHILADELPHIA, PA 3/24/73 will be up for pre-order on Tuesday, October 22nd at 10AM PT and it will sell out.
Please note that a very limited quantity of DAVE'S PICKS: VOLUME 32 will be available. Orders are limited to 2 copies.

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.

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

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

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!
