    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 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!

    Hey, MaryE (reposted from DaP28 page)

    My problems

    1) Last night my password wouldn't work. to log in I had to request I new one (account info was remembered by the system).
    To comment today I again had to request a new password after my new password wasn't recognized.

    2) Wanted to post about this from IceCreamKid:
    "After posting that last comment I was sent to page 6 of this message board.
Why wasn’t I sent to the most recent post of this page?
    And another...
Those navigation numbers on the bottom of the page
First......1,2,3......Last
Put a copy of those on the top of the page too so that you don’t have to scroll to the bottom of the page just to move to another page."

    That experience happened to me too (at first, thought my comment had not posted, then saw the page number) and his request is one I firmly second. If you have comments appearing newest first, scrolling to the bottom the page to change pages is annoying and there should be the same page list/links available above the comments as there is below.

    Hope that my password problem goes away. Hope the vast fields of white do get filled in with something interesting but not distracting or obfuscatory.

    The site did seem to need an overhaul. Hopefully, this overhaul will be beneficial. Thanks for trying, GDM crew.
    (And when I posted this to the DaP page, I was bounced to page 6 again...)

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.

welcome to our merry band...

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.

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!

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

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...

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.

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

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.

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 to see a pickup-truck with a Maga and GD bumper sticker. I have never liked the Dead and their redneck/hillbilly followers.

HI there,
I am new here. Nice to e-meet you ya'll.
Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I have this book called: THE COMPLETE ANNOTATED GRATEFUL DEAD LYRICS - 2007(PAPERBACK). If anyone in Oz is interested please make contact.
Regards
The Biting Flea

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

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:
