    In search of old dead head Winddancer aka jonathan?
    New to this site.. Searching for my birth father with little leads.. I was conceived in Eugene oregon in the summer of "79. My mother devorah met him and they were only together for a short while.. I imagine, there are many others like me, products of a free loving time:)He went by the name winddancer. I do not have his birthname.. I believe he frequented santa cruz california, not sure if he was from there or not. any leads, info or ideas will be gratefully appreciated.. He would most likely be in his late 50's to early 60's now.. I know the circle was tight back then, so I am sending this out into the universe, that there is the chance that someone may have known this man.. Thank you, Sarah

    Calling All Dead Heads!
    hi everyone. I admit I am a new Dead Head - never been to a show (in fact most of them happened before I was born). But I am taking a Religion and Popular Culture class at NYU and I am writing about Dead Heads, the effect the band has had and how the culture started. I would love to hear from some of you about the experiences you've had with the band and how they have changed you! Feel free to send me a message on here or my email, maiacanter@gmail.com Thanks so much! I hope to hear from some of you soon :)

    Deadheads in MIssouri
    Deadheads in Missouri? I know there's some in Kansas City besides me. I know I'm not the only one. I've liked the GD since the 80's, even though I listen to the rock station, I do love the GD. They are in my Ipod touch,and my Ipod shuffle, and in my CD player in my car. A guy named Rob, whom I used to go out with, liked them,and a was a big deadhead, and he started me on liking them.

Searching for that young woman who I miracled into the show back in the 90's. Not much going on here just another late night thinking about the project ahead of me! Yawn. Where did all those people go? Well, I must be getting older. Time for some ZZZZZ's.

Yeah, I might have to make a internet show of photos the way things are going these days.

Hello! I’m the daughter of Perry Green. She passed when I was 5 so I’m trying to dig through her history in hopes of learning more about her. I’d assume she traveled throughout California shows in the late 70s- early 80s. She was beautiful, kind and had a great laugh :)

We connected after I left FL. I posted a " missed connection" on CL and a friend told you about it. Since then, you have disappeared; someone told you to "break ties with your past" Well, I disagree! ( for what that's worth.) I told you I think of you when I see Orion in the Eastern Sky. He rises in the winter when we met at the " Warf" where Crazy Fingers would play on Thursdays. I hope you or a friend sees this and asks you to reach out. I sure miss you.
sincerely
Ruddy

My lovely wife Sue worked for Emily K in Santa Barbara around 1980, and she had a coworker named Karen Mariott, who was from Ventura, Ca. We became friends with Karen and husband Bill, who lived in Ventura. I last saw Bill in Ojai in 1985.
They went to shows with the Beanie Copter Crew, in CalTrans orange.
Karen used to bake goodies for Harry Popick, who mixed stage monitors
We lost track of them many years ago, and hope to reconnect..

Hi! I am trying to find Marcus, the shakedown street vendor artist who creates the soft black Tshirts screen printing a white pirate stealie with swords on the front. I would like to support this artist by purchasing 4 shirts from him as I did not have the money while at the last two shows - in NY and in PA. Thank you so much!!!

Looking for an old friend from the early 80s's. His name was Skip, and attended many shows in that period, selling shirts and other things he made. He also had a store selling his dead shirts and other similar items in Queens, NY in 1983, when i knew him. Any one know who i am talking about and any idea if he is still with him and how to contact him?

It's been 30 years now since we last hitchhiked across across the land from sea to sea to sea over mountains across endless plains through National parks and forests through a desert or two north south east west whichever way the flip of a lucky quarter directed us to go . It's been 15 years or so since we last kicked around a hackysack somewhere near Dayton Ohio . You met and married your wife there and had started a family . We lost contact after that day . Never thought that as I drove away it would be the last time we would see or talk to each other. I tried to get in touch with you through Willie a couple years ago only to find that he had passed away ( my condolences he was a good friend and brother ) . I know this is a long shot since you have no presence anywhere on the net that I can find which is not a surprise considering where and how you were living and I assume still are . If by chance you should come across this message just know that your legend lives forever in memories with kind smiles . Peace be the journey and blessed be thy thumb . Hope you are well and that we will meet again if not in this lifetime then in the next .

It just makes me a bit sad that so many people are looking for folks that made an indelible impression on them. Do they find each other and reunite? Could they use this site to do that? I want to see a success story! Please! Here Comes Sunshine…!

We attended some shows together and parted ways, and lost each other for 19 years

We have lost each other again
Maybe next lifetime we will be there pirate ship I will love you forever

Lenny, Lenny, Lenny!!!!! I know you!! I don't actually. I know of you because back somewhere between 95-98, I was in Santa Cruz when my friend Paul Rush rode his motorcycle all the way from Delaware to hopefully meet up with me. Unfortunately I had left to go back to PA three days before his arrival. We wrote many letters back and forth, and Paul wrote about you, and how you had helped him when he first got to Santa Cruz. I'm hoping you know of some way to reach him because somehow we lost touch and I've been looking for him for many many years. My name is Tarah Smith- aka Cordy. My email address is autodidact43@outlook.com

Hey now!

Anyone know how to find the person or people in charge of licensing for Dead-related stuff?

I'm trying to navigate through Rhino and the only licensing stuff I can find seems to be about music. What about gear?

Thanks in advance for any help or answers provided!

Anyone know this lady Deadhead? She made these beautiful hand-painted parking lot shirts in 1980. I bought one. They were a limited edition of 100. I just wonder if she is still around. Thanks.

Looking for Cindy Wright. Bay Area deadhead who used to work at BASS tickets and who was seeing the Dead since her first show at the closing of the Fillmore West in July 1971. She lived in Oakland or Alameda but was originally from Modesto or some other Central Valley time. Message me on twitter at @DrBeechwood if you have any info!

Tobin and I attended July 10th 1987 Dylan/Dead show in Philly together and he got lost en route to the venue! We also went to the same high school, Bullis, in Potomac, MD circa 86-87. I'd love to run into him again and catch up.
I knew Domo from school too. Good times.
Is anybody else out there a dead head from Bullis HS in the late 80's? Did you attend our little Trips festival we had in Fall '86 at school during 'Recreation Day' or some such thing?

I am looking for a pen pal to write real pen and paper letters... share memories of the Grateful Dead, and stories about Ireland.

I write poetry and shun technology. I have no email... a friend Dave is posting on my behalf. I am 74 years old. Let me know if you would like me to write a real old snal mail ;-)
