    Lost Levi Jacket
    This one falls under the "time flies when you're oblivious" category. Set the wayback machine, Sherman! Way, way back in 1983, on the way to the Ventura shows from Huntington Beach, my friends and I stopped at the MacDonald's on Kanan Rd in Agoura off the 101 Freeway for a quick bite. Somehow or another in the process of getting in and out of the car my Levi Jacket fell out, never to be seen again. I didn't notice it was missing until we got to the fairgrounds. I returned to MacDonald's in a frantic search but it was in vain as the jacket was gone and I ended up missing the first set. Didn't care about missing the show but the Jacket had sentimental value to me and couldn't be replaced. It was old and frayed and covered with Grateful Dead patches and buttons and had travelled all over the country with me for about 10 years. To this day I am saddened at losing that jacket so I thought that I would try a search here in case by some wierd coincidence someone out there found it. My only hope after losing it was that someone who was cold or really needed it found it. I refuse to think it was stolen, I know it was an accident and probably just fell out of the car. If someone out there has found it please, please let me know; it was a beloved friend and needs to come home. Thank You ............

    Bass Sheet Music
    I'm learning to play bass (lessons for about a year).Alas, I have been unable to find any books or sheet music that has any bass music for the Dead. Amazon seems to have nothing either. I can't even find much out there for PowerTabs or GuitarPro. I'm afraid my ear isn't trained well enough to pick out more than a few notes from a song. I realize Phil is very improvisational, but there are still key riffs, etc. that I could learn from sheet music. Does anyone know where I can get some of the Dead's basslines? I'm thinking something simple like Bertha to start with, then work up to GDTRFB, but I'd love to play any Dead. I just want to play it right. Thanks

    Concert for my sister;s death
    Hello, I do not want to ruin everything, but I had a sister than went to this concert when I was 6 years old and a drunk driver killed her after this show. This was the last time any of my family would see her. I was hoping you or someone else had a copy of Grateful Dead Live at Deer Creek Music Center on 1990-07-18 in good quality or anything from that show would mean a lot to me. Email me back at indyrdc@yahoo.com Thanks

Before the 2021 SPAC Dead &Co. show, a gal at the Belvedere hotel in Sch'dy had the most amazing SYF beadwork bag! Simply gorgeous. Her husband told me the name of the vendor, said he'd prolly be on Shakedown, but - I couldn't find him. And now I've forgotten the name, ofc.
Does anybody know who does simply stellar GD beadwork?
Any leads gratefully appreciated!

Hey everyone, I’ve got a small collection of tapes I’ve been working on but many have no J-cards or are just basic cards with set lists. I’m wondering if anyone out there has some old sheets of Deadhead created J-cards still available? I found 2 on eBay but nothing else. Any help is appreciated.

Taping Compendium, Volume III

Does anyone know a place that is selling it for $60-100? Or does anyone want to sell me their copy?

I own the first 2 but I can't find this one for under $200 (and many want $500+) and I can only afford $60-100.

PM if you know a place or if you want to sell me your copy.
Thank you

I'm seeking a recommendation for good software and/or an app to use to manage and play my ripped Dead CD collection. It seems surprisingly hard to find something that will work! At this point, my music is saved as FLAC files on a hard drive, and I am imagining using Dropbox for transfer between PC and iphone. I'm just need something to play the music, using playlists for my ripped CDs etc. Any ideas will help...thanks! -Bill ; wnschult@gmail

Hi, tried looking for the files in the internet but i didnt find anything. so i'm gonna rty my luck here.

Recently i bought the Cornell 77 vinyl box set and it was in bad shape due to humidity (don't worry sorted out partial refund with seller all good). this didn't bother me too much as the vinyls were undamaged and the box wasnt too bad on the outside, also I listen to my records and i am not going to resell the box. However, the booklet that came with the box was completely ruined and i really wanted to read through it while listening. I was therefore thinking that i would find some PDF files and print out the booklet myself. does andone have the booklet and could scan the pages for me og have access to a PDF file of the pages?

Thank you in advance!

Desperately searching for the 1996 Lithuania Olympics basketball team hat. It is a green baseball cap with a yellow, green, and red basketball going through a basketball net with the outline of a skull.

I went and looked at the Lithuania Strong website (years ago I got the 1992 poster from them, signed by Sarunas) and I'm not seeing any hats. Though the stealie-ish water bottle for this year's Olympics is kinda cool. (I have no connection with these guys, but due to a series of events I happened to be at the Warriors game where Bobby and Mickey presented the check to Sarunas in 1992, and it was memorable...)

Hi! I'm looking for concert posters from one or more of the following shows:
11/13/1972 (Kansas City)
11/13/78 (Boston)
11/13/87 (Long Beach, CA)

I'm not even sure if posters were released for all those dates. The only one I've seen a picture of is the Kansas City show. If anyone has any of these that they are willing to sell, or can point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

I have most of a version of this on a cassette which has seen better days. NOT the cover band, not the Mickey version. Clever, ascerbic Jerry vocals. "Not just your run-of-the-mill weird..." Does anyone have any information about this demo? My very old boom box tried to eat the cassette... I ought to find someplace that does digital transfers and see if any of it can be salvaged. Incomplete version, but it's really interesting. To me, anyway.

Hello, I am posting this here and on the Tapers area also.
My good buddy and Grateful Dead fan (Jerry) passed away in February. He turned me on to all things GD. I am helping his wife dispense with the cassettes Jerry collected over the last 40-50 years, estimated at appx. 500. This collection is in Charlotte, NC and available to any Deadhead who would enjoy and take as good care of them as Jerry did. If you are seriously interested, let me know. (400 in wall rack + 100 on a shelf). Most are GD, -some Hot Tuna, Airplane mixed in. Hopefully folks can reply and I will see it. Thanks Rick. I have pics of the collection to share if that helps. I'll check back here for interest.

Hello Rick, I'm sorry to hear of your good friend's passing. I saw your post regarding relocating his old Dead tapes. I don't live in Charlotte, but if you would be willing to put some in a box for me, I would pay for shipping and your time spent going to the trouble.
If this is something you're willing to do, I'd be glad to give those tapes a new home.
Again, sorry for your loss.
Best,
Wyatt

Hello friends,
I am looking for what I think might be a pretty rare poster. It is a small poster that just says “Grateful Dead” and has a picture of a skull wearing a Viking helmet. My friend had one (she claimed she offered it to me at some point, but I don’t think this happened because I’m not one to turn down a free GD poster rare or not), but she realized she could sell it and did so. The only other thing like it she found online while trying to figure out what she had was an envelope someone posted in a forum somewhere that had the same skull with a Viking helmet design. The poster she had she found in a random vinyl she got at the thrift store (not even sure it was a GD vinyl). Anyways, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this poster since- and I would really like to get my hands on one so that I can gift it to my friend who is an older deadhead who taught me a lot about the music and the band’s history. Does anybody know where I might find one of these? Like I said it’s just a small poster that says “Grateful Dead” and has a skull wearing a Viking helmet on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi All,

I'm trying to locate a documentary video of the 1980 Oakland NYE show. The video was up on Vimeo as video # 155876550 for a long time, but it is now password protected, and I can't identify the owner to request access.

My wife and I appear in the video at around 01 24 19. My current profile photo is an old frame grab from that video.

I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me with finding this. I'd really like to get a copy of the documentary. (YT has good videos of the show, itself, but not the documentary).

Thanks!
