Got ideas for how things should be run differently in the Vineyard? Improvements? Suggestions? Brainstorms? Truckloads of fertilizer? Post here.,On the floor at MSG... one perfect song after another...and we were beyond elated with disbelief and gratitude. This was truely a fantasy set list and, in my opinion, the best of my 8 show run.

Vista/XP DVD compatibility

JSFC, I haven't dug deep enough into it to find the exact answer other than people run different versions of XP (eg, no service pack, SP1, SP2); when I last looked, the Microsoft site said that the more recent versions of Live File System are incompatible with "some" XP computers. The XP on my work laptop is regularly maintained by large corporate IT department, so I imagine its one of the most recent versions, probably with a good many tweaks and add-ons to satisfy the IT folks. So I'm not surprised that it doesn't balk at the LVS 2.5 DVDs that Vista automatically creates. ohyeah ~~~~~~~ "They say Cain caught Abel rolling loaded dice"

Ok so lets get back to talking about vines!!

I think I'm going to break the fall 1981 vine into 2 parts. First will be the last 3 shows from early fall which marked the end of their U.S. tour. The second part will be some of their European tour in early October which has not already been seeded here according to the vinedex. All of the shows are nice SBDs and I am excited to share them.

It is interesting what you say about RW's. You may be on to something! All of the vines I have out there are on DVD-RW. Maybe that explains why stuman has had some issues with the vines I have sent out? I would just think more people would be having issues. I don't know, maybe next time I'll just buy DVD-R.

i think...

it's good to have as many approaches as possible, but most of the re-seeds i have done are from people requesting them from me - on occasion, I go looking to see if something has broken down & try to fix it, but for the most part, once i send it out, it's in the hands of the community. I agree with Badger - it can't hurt to have a special place to look - but also agree with Hal - sometimes nobody signs up & they just sit with someone. Raymondbrown has been begging folks to sign up for vines that he was the last recipient of - and I have the Bobby & the Midnites vine, waiting for someone to sign up. Also - did anyone have comments on using RW dvd's (only because I bought them & my pc doesn't like them - but the laptop does). I'm hesitant to send out vines on RW media because someone may erase it - but then we have all the other perils too - so it may not matter - it's just an issue of economics.

Yes

The re-seed thread would need to be very specific to vines we know are lost for good. Trust me I have a really good idea of which ones those are! As for vines that we are simply sitting on waiting for a sign up, those require some diligence in that they should get bumped up to the front of the list from time to time so that they become visible. Those types of vines are attractive becasue there is no wait but they need to be advertised a little. "I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel. Can't win for tryin.

remember

CB said that these vines were inactive, that does not man they are all lost. I have sat on vines for months and then someone requested it, so I don't see why there should be a spot for inactive vines, especially when someone is sitting on them and happy to mail them when the next person signs up. So we have at least 80% of the vines that are now active since May. I think that is very good. I think if you added the vines that people are sitting on and no one has requested the % would go up quite a bit. So I bet our cup is 85% or more full, I think that is incredible.

Stay safe and healthy out

Stay safe and healthy out there.

Back to the Dead!!!

I have been away for a couple of months dealing with a very unexpected death in our family. Being the oldest of 3 I had to handle the details of which there were many in a very unorganized fashion. The storm has finally passed thank (insert whoever you belive in here). I believe it is safe to resume vining. I apologize for not posting here sooner,but I'm sure everyone here will understand the situation. It looks as if there are some really cool vines in the mix. I think I have two vines, that I will find out who is next in line and send off asap!! I apologize for the delays and will repair my surely tarnished vining reputation stat!! Kevin

welcome back

Kevin. Sorry about ur loss and no worries. There are a few of us here who have been having issues as of late. I hope smileydave still doing alright. Thanks again for the update. As we all know communication is a must in this lil place.

Sorry for your loss

That stuff is always very hard. Don't worry, your reputation is just fine here brother! "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

Estim8ed

Sorry for your loss, Kevin. Glad to have you back.

Estim8ed

Sorry to hear of your loss .. welcome back .. " Life is`nt about running from the storm, it`s about learning to dance in the rain "

Thanks to all

Thanks for the support guys. I have sent off one vine (New 90's Pt 1) and I cannot locate the other that I was supposed to have (Capital Center '91) I posted to the vine offering blanks if someone would re-seed. That should have me up to date. If anyone knows of vines that I was the death of let me know and I will try to help. Again thanks to eveyone in this community for your understanding of life's ups and downs and for all you do for the vineyard. Especially those who have vined with me for years now and always have the back of a brother, as I wil always have yours when you need it.Kevin

things are

starting to turn arond here, slowly though. I will try to get working on some of these vines, jst depends on how much stamina i have. thanks all for your well-wishes and patience

good wishes to all

It seems a few folks have been through some hard times lately and they have received nothing but kindness and understanding. Here's some good springtime wishes to all of you! I think the members of this vineyard really must be one of the nicest groups of people anywhere on the web.

I agree with Badger

We rock! Hang in there Matt and take your time! Anybody going to Furthur Sunday night? "Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own."

We rock

A very special place indeed. Sure wish I was going to be in NY this weekend... ahh well .. Matt - Great to hear that things are getting better! Please take your time with vine turn around. "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

Attention My Fellow Viners

There is a chance that I may be moving by April. If I do or not I will let you know. Hopefully I can still vine but if life gets in the way the vineyard would have to be put on hold for me. If this is the case I will mail any remaining vines that haven`t been signed up on to JSFC to hold onto.-Jake

Sounds like fun Jake...

at least I hope so - good luck with the move as for me - I'll be back in Calif. Tuesday night I got a couple vines with me that I may get out on Monday the ones waiting for me in Sunnyvale will be turned around within a day or two of my return THANKS ALL!!

FURTHUR LAST NIGHT

Without sounding too hyperbolic, last night's Furthur show (3/27) at Radio City was far and away the best post-Jerry show of any type I have seen. If you get the chnce, check out the setlist and even more check out the guests, Elvis Costello, Diana Krall, etc, etc. "Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own."

Furthur Set List 3/27

Set I: Samson & Delilah Chest Fever (w/Larry Capmbell) Tennessee Jed (w/Larry Campbell & Elvis Costello) Friend of The Devil (w/Larry Campbell & Elvis Costello) Ship of Fools > (w/Larry Campbell & Elvis Costello) It Must Have Been The Roses > (w/Larry Campbell & Elvis Costello) Ship of Fools (w/Larry Campbell & Elvis Costello) Cassidy Ripple (w/Larry Campbell, Elvis Costello & Diana Krall) Set II: Throwing Stones Sunrise (w/Teresa Williams) St. Stephen > Radio City jam > St. Stephen > What's Become of The Baby > (w/Teresa Williams) The Eleven > Uncle John's Band... (w/Larry Campbell) Unbroken Chain > The Wheel > Morning Dew > Sugar Magnolia Encore: Donor Rap Days Between Encore II: Phil Banter Jam > (w/Larry Campbell, Elvis Costello & Diana Krall) Fever (w/Larry Campbell, Elvis Costello & Diana Krall) Encore III: Phil banter/intros Attics of My Life (w/Elvis Cosello & Teresa Williams) Does anyone out there know if the Dead ever did "Whats Become of the Baby" live? "Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own."

What's become of the baby

I think it was last played by the GD in 1969. They did one on 4/26/69 in Chicago. Of course Furthur did it at FurthurFest last year. I agree that they are firing on all cylinders so far in 2011!! "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

It does sound good

" Life is`nt about running from the storm, it`s about learning to dance in the rain "

maustin

Take care brother. That is great news and man, I'm sorry you are going through that. <> "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

MATT

The positive vibes will continue to be sent your way from the Vineyard. "Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own."

i am sorry

Help

I have been investigating different ways to store files on line, that would be accessible by more than one person. I have put some shows on a skydrive. The files are downloadable, no passwords are needed. If any of you want to try it out, feel free and PM me to let me know how it worked. (or didn't work) Here is the address: http://cid-0908c9749ff4b1b3.skydrive.live.com/home.aspx?sa=795624458

Update

I will be vining the 1969 Lossless Project composed of 5 parts by the end of the month. I will being posting multiple parts at once. I ask that once these get the go ahead, no one has more than one vine at a time, please. So if you sign up first on more than one, I will be sending it to the person after you. Don't take it as disrespect I just wanna keep this music moving. That being said, enjoy this healthy dose of Pigpen and 1969.

69 lossless

So, Jake, are you including the shows that were vined as Early 69 (which included most of Jan-Apr) in the 1969 Lossless Project? I don't know if there are 5 parts if you don't include those shows. I am very interested in all the shows not included in the Early 69 parts. Thanks!

jake r

Cancel that, just saw your post in the Early 69 thread. Makes sense. Looking forward to the later shows!

1969 Lossless Project

Glad to see everyones excited about these vines. Ive been wanting some shows from this great yr in lossless for some time now as the majority that have been vined here were on cd that I signed up on forever ago it seems. Listening to the Lovelight from an old Woodstock Bootleg many years ago got me to be a Pigpen fan. Thanks to Rick for sendin me the shows and I hope you all enjoy these as much as I do. You can never have too many Dark Stars, The Other Ones, or Lovelights IMO. Long live the vineyard and happy vining to all.

Rick? As in Ltapilot? It's

Rick? As in Ltapilot? It's because of him the '67 vine is out there...Thanks Rick

No doubt!

LTAPilot behind the scenes!! Thanks for everything Rick =) If I remember correctly he lives like 30 min from me ... "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

an LTApilot sighting?

cool!

Help

I have been able keep things mostly organized since being part of this community. I am at a total loss. I got some Feb-Mar 2011 Further stuff in the mail, and I have been up and down the threads, and I don't see a 2011 Further vine. I am sure it's right in front of my face. Is there a 2011 Further Vine?

No worries EDAD

Not a Furthur Vine. Just a couple of shows to share. Best Wishes-Jimmy

1969 Update

Well it appears I need a new burner. I wont be able to get one for a lil bit so I`ve sent all my original 1969 DVDs from Rick to kwitt so he can burn and turn instead of me risking more DVD issues. Everyone should be getting replacement discs and Parts 4 and 5 should be sent soon.I apologize for the hangup but I promise its worth the wait.

No problem Jake, thanks for

No problem Jake, thanks for all your hard work on this one! And thanks for stepping in, Kwitt!

1969 Update

The original DVDs arrived today. Will burn and turn each of the five vines ASAP. Thanks Jake!

1969 Update

I have re-burned all 5 vines although it looks like JBH69Flyer fixed #1. The remaining 4 will ship tomorrow. I'll update each vine list once they ship. Thanks to Jake for providing well organized info. Great stuff here folks!

1969 Vine Part One Update

Thanks kwitt for the great job on fixing the 1969 Vines. Yes, I was able to DL the needed shows to fix the 1969 Vine Part One. Planning to send zepthompson my fixes and then send the vine out to the next person on the list. Thanks again to Jake R for starting this vine and kwitt for the fixes. Great Stuff!! Best Wishes-Jimmy

awesome work

Keith and Jimmy side note headed out of town later this week I'll try to update any vines where it looks like I should be knocked down a notch or two gone for one week - should not be a big deal thanks again every one!

Zep

I wouldn't worry about making any adjustments to lists ... we can wait =) Have a good trip! "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"
