So glad you made it... Welcome to the updated Dead.net! If you've been around for a while, you should find your familiar haunts much as you left them, though some of them may be in slightly different locations.
If you're joining us for the first time, we're delighted to see you! We invite you to just poke around and make yourselves at home.
A few possibilities:
-Tape trading (digital and otherwise)
- In Search Of (tickets! stuff! music! etc.!)
- The Ride Board (useful touring resource)
- All About My Band (the one you're playing in)
If you need a bit of navigational assistance, post here or send me (marye) a PM and we'll try to help!

Spacebro et al, good news re the old Store threads

They are all here: https://www.dead.net/forum/72336 There's actually a lot of good thought behind this, because it was often the case that something would sell out or otherwise become unavailable, but wait, there's this huge conversation attached, we can't just remove it... This way, we avoid causing further distress to people trying to order something that's been out of stock since 2011, and the conversations are in a nice safe place where folks can go right on conversing. So please do!

glitch?

I've been poking around...in the show archive section, if you key in a year, the screen returns with shows from that year. but if you try to page forward in the event the show you're looking for is not on the first page, the screen reverts back to 1965 shows. It didn't happen each time, but something like 4 out of 5 times this happened.
Searching by venue didn't seem to work at all.

EDIT: seems to be corrected now...thanks

also...your GOTCHA is incredibly aggressive

Checking out new layout

Looks like my account is intact. Are discussions about new product on the product order pages now gone permanantly?

3 days, 3 password problems

For the third day my password needed resetting to get me in.
The request email to reset password system works GREAT. Sends message instantly and the process is painless, but annoying. All in all, this is NOT a terrible problem for me and quite manageable.
Am logging in via a macBook, OS10.6.8 using FireFox 48.02. Did not have this problem before the site upgrade.

My avatar pic and account info all survived the upgrade fine and the password reset system leads me straight to my account. It is just the log in password recognition that has gone hinky.
My password choices are registered as "weak" by the evaluation system, but the "changes (are) recorded".

Thanks for spending your Sunday doing IT work.

Thanks Mary for all of your…

Thanks Mary for all of your patience, help and therapy!!! I know websites must stay current with trends and technology. I like the general direction the new site seems to be heading in, but will wait for pats-on-the-back at this point. Here are some things I've noticed.

[Viewing Via Chrome (Version 69.0.3497.100) on MacBook Pro/High Sierra v. 10.13.6]

GENERAL
1. Dim the background or add cool, subtle background so the new site does not continue causing headaches and/or blindness.
2. Seems like every time you do anything, you have to re-take the reCaptcha exam. Is this necessary?

MESSAGES
1. The personal message board takes a very long time to download compared to other locations on the new site..
2. There is no “PM member” button with poster’s avatar/comment, or on their member info page, or anywhere else I can see.
3. Doesn't look like you can "Preview" messages created on .../private_messages/ before sending. I'm only seeing a "Save" button.
4. PM’s seem to get posted to the wrong “Subject” thread, even if you re-enter the intended subject in the subject field. (Maybe they go to the first thread between the participants… or maybe by alphabet?)

COMMENTS PAGES
1. Indicate newly posted comments with “NEW”. This was a very helpful feature in the website’s previous incarnation.
2. Allow more comments per page - previously you could select how many comments were displayed per page.

Thanks again for the therapy!

Searching

Hi all. Does anyone know where to get covers, poly or other, for the cardboard covered CD? I'm especially looking for ones for the multi-disc sets, Daves Picks, and the 50 year anniversary sets.

Can't wait for the American Beauty set.

How do I add the shows I have attended to my account?

How to add shows attended

Figured it out!

Shows attended

I figured it out thanks

oh good!

welcome to our merry band...

Shows attended

Can't find my archived list of shows attended, wanted look it over. My account says no shows are listed. Ridiculous, I listed my shows with this website over a decade ago and listed 124 shows attended before 1995. Please
advise.

Hii

Just forgot my DNC password

So, as nice as this forum is, I've got over 20 years on DeadNetCentral. And wouldn't you know, I just now decided to change my password using one of those password generators, and I am...shut out.

Can anyone lend a hand. I miss my Latvala's Corner!

Marye Can you help?

HI Mary - I'm so sorry - I've tried since Dave's Picks 33 was released to fix this with customer service. I've been subscribing to the DP series since the beginning, always shipped to my work address at 1350 West St., Pittsfield MA, 01201. For some reason Dave's 33 was sent to "350 West Street" and never made it to me. I contacted customer service at the time (Feb 2020), they said it would be dealt with. Nothing for months. I contacted them again recently, they said sorry it would be sent. Today I got a shipping notice for it, but it says it's sent to my home address, which they also have wrong (even though it's my billing address - which also now appears wrong on the shipping notice). They have me in Cummington NJ but I live in Cummington MA. I sent them a note back today, but it's clear to me that I need more help. (To boot, Oct 29 '77 is one of my top five shows of '77 :) Any help is so appreciated thank you! -- Claney

Dr. Rhino?

Hi again Mary, I did just find what I think might be the contact for Dr. Rhino and will send the same note to that email. Not sure if that's what to do, but again thank you for any help you can provide. Just trying to describe the chain of events makes me sound like a crazy person...

Dancing again

Yay! We are up and dancing again! I hope the tech problems last night weren’t too serious! 😉😆

30 Days of Dead 2020?

Has anyone heard about whether or not this series will continue? 10 years is a great run, and one of the highlights to the Holidaze for me.

Peace

Still looking, looking, looking...

High-Ho! Still looking for other compulsive vinyl completists to share notes and "myths" of existing rarities. Discography section, ("Coming Soon"...), has been barren for ever. Anyone have any info to share on:
- Bob Weir - "Cassidy"/"One More Saturday Night" WB US STOCK Copy?
- Diga Rhythm Band - "Happiness is Drumming"/ "Razooli" - 7" single?
- "Anthem of the Sun" WB 7" Radio Spots?
A 40-Year collection, and a few "ugly rumors" of unknowns still exist. Info & photos welcome! - Way Out West

HI, Is there a way to search…

HI, Is there a way to search for and reach out to registered users? Im trying to contact someone who recently won 30 days of dead, because they live in the same small town as me.

Grateful Dead nights at Giants games were fun with Moonalice

I still miss Jerry... The Dead sang at several Giants games over the years.
I first saw the Dead (at the Fillmore) in 1966...and continued to enjoy them till 1995.
They never disappointed their fans.
We still go to Dead & Co when they are in the Bay Area ...and they never disappoint.

survey

Interesting survey. Love to read your thesis when you're done :)

Deadhead survey

I filled in the survey Leenlipham good luck with your thesis.

they sure as hell were prone to occasionally disappoint. They're men, after all.

Republicans and Grateful Dead

As a foreigner from Europe I've noticed that Grateful Dead has a very large fanbase of Trumpers especially from the red states of America. This is confusing, I'm sure the late Jerry would not approve such fascism or would he?

Thanks for any replies.

It's not unusual in America…

It's not unusual in America to see a pickup-truck with a Maga and GD bumper sticker. I have never liked the Dead and their redneck/hillbilly followers.

Loving the site

Thanks for putting this site together I've been a dead head ever since my mom showed me back in 1975. Now im a roofing contractor in FL and rock with the dead.

Box of rain

Hey Now Flea,

Yeah, I had box of rain with the C.D. on top of it! I decided to act upon the wordz in the song, so I left it where it was at and passed it on to the next person. Someone out there is listening to Hunter(live 1990) with a bonus C.D. to go with the lyrics written in the book. As it's been said the songs are about people...Though I'm wondering who said "I'm a loving man" to give Pig Pen a moment towards your book with lyrics. You won't find everything written within the cover...or will you? You decide...not everything is written..and everything sung has yet to be discovered. Well welcome, welcome. It .... "seldom turns out the way it does in a song," yet "once in a while you get shown the light>>>>In the strangest of places if you look at it right." It would be really cool if someone in the vault woke up and found some early vintage stuff while the bussss was rolling along La Honda :) Well, Flea I hope you find some magic written in your book. I know I have enjoyed this roller coaster ride all these years, as there's some alligator outside my door someplace waiting for a snappy biting tune to wake him up. "And we bid you goodnight" Peace, JiMi

NEWBIE!

This is what jerry wants. Rest in peace brother!

Dead and co. recklessly supporting experimental deadly vaccinei

It is absolutely outrageous that Dead and Company would push the covid vaccine on its fans. The vaccine has killed 10s of 1000s of people, is experimental and untested, is not a real vaccine and u have a much greater chance of dying from the vaccine than from covid. It is outrageous and reckless and will kill deadheads. U r not doctors or scientists. Watch this video and wake up and immediately remove any vaccine policy to see ur shows and save lives:
