    Extended-long Not Fade Away - Goin Down The Road segue
    The NFA - GDTR segue on "Grateful Dead" is from (I believe) a show in 1971 at the Manhatten Center. The CD (even the bonus CD in the box set) has a version that cuts off right after Goin Down The Road wraps up, but I have heard a version that continues, in a much slower pace, for another 2 - 3 minutes, then segues back into Not Fade Away. Does anyone either know, definitively, where I can find that "extended long" version, or know of a site that I could query to try to get to the bottom of it?

    100 dead songs poster
    Thanks to all who have reponded so far. I still don't have 100 but I at least have Spider Gawd. I was keeping it to just Dead songs and not the solo stuff but it is the only thing that fits. Thanks again. Maybe together we can all solve this thing. Dadhead

    I think you're right, Wing. But I would never have gotten 90 of 'em, so my hat is off to dadhead.

    100 Dead Songs Poster
    ha, ha....I haven't seen it for a while, but I do have a guess on the spider.....For some reason, the album 'Jerry Garcia', where it's just he and Bill Kruetzmann playing on the whole thing, comes to mind. Maybe a song from that album? Now you got me wondering;) Justin and I would put that CD on really loud in his grandfather's garage on Halloween night and just let it play through the valley in Mill Valley, CA. That was tons of fun! -L.Wing

    Please Help With 100 Dead Songs Poster
    Hello. I need a miracle. I have had the 100 dead songs poster for a while. It is in my cubicle, as is a statue of Jerry, to bring me serenity during work hours. However it is now a source of torment. I can't get all 100 songs. Is there a solution to this poster anywhere? I can get about 90 of them. The last 10 are killing me. What song is that spider from? I just can't think of it. Any help will be grately apprecited. Thanks. Gratefuldad

    You Tube question
    Just curious. There's some great video, b&w, of the 4/27/77 show in Passaic on You Tube. It is credited to "Brokedown House Productions." Anyone know the original source of this video? It was on WNEW radio. Was the show on tv somewhere? Was it a fan's tape? ??????? Enlightenment Please.

    Hey, I have hardly popped in
    Hey, I have hardly popped in any GD CD's in a long time. I've converted to MP3 and havn't turned my CD's into MP3 yet. I have plenty of live in MP3 from my computer...Anyways. I've listened to Greyfolded last evening and started to listen to my Infrared Roses this evening. Thanks a ton! Now that I've opened my CD collection (prolly 95% of what's been released) I need to put these in my iPod. Hell it holds 80G. A dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago... ________________________ www.autoquoteresearch.com

I'm working on a project where I want to attempt to archive Grateful Dead bootleg lot shirts. I would like to create a print publication as well as a website celebrating the lot bootleg shirt. I would also like to document the stories and lore behind the shirts. I would love to hear any stories about anyone funding their tour by selling shirts, stories from shirt creators, any crazy Dead bootleg story (favorite shirt, shirts tha led to introductions, crazy adventures, etc... Feel free to send me any pictures, stories, ideas, suggestions, etc.. Thanks! Peace.

A long, long time ago, when we listened to tapes, a friend of mine had this great show from (I think) May 1978. Here is what (I think) I remember:
Terrapin > Sunrise > Estimated, which were mind-blowing. Probably Donna's best Sunrise; will bring you to tears.
I'm fairly sure that Terrapin went straight in to Sunrise. But I'm sure that Sunrise went straight in to Estimated. I don't think it was edited that way.
They were playing these tunes a lot at that time, but I've combed through the archives and just can't locate a show with this sequence; my memories may be at fault.

Thanks!

In Deadbase X, the lists for all 30 Sunrises:
5-12-77 Estimated>Sunrise>Terrapin
5-22-77 Good Lovin'>Sunrise>Estimated
1-11-78 Samson>Sunrise>Terrapin
4-11-78 Fire>Sunrise>Terrapin
That's all that have either an Estimated or a Terrapin on either side.
So maybe that 5-12-77?
Cheers

Hey 1st Show!

Thanks for the assist; May 22 1977 is the one. Listening to it right now. You know what's wrong with that show? NOTHING! ;-) Many of the tunes played that night are easily top picks for me.

Does anyone have contact information for the photographer who was shooting family portraits at Laguna Seca in 1988? Today my daughter, who was three years old at those shows, mentioned that the post-show scene at those gigs is one of her earliest memories. I’d love to get a print of the photo that was taken by that photographer. Thanks!

When doing a data transfer I managed to lose all of the 30 Days music I'd collected over the years
I thought I once came across a site that allowed one to download previous years, but darned if I can find it again.
Anybody help me find it again, or something similar?
Thanks in advance.

Post over on the 30 days thread.
I'm sure someone there knows.
They are incredibly knowledgeable.
Good luck and cheers

HI I'm Malena and i would like to know more about the deadhead culture for a college project. Feel free to answer as many of the following questions as you like I'm thankful for every answer :)
1. How would you describe the Deadhead-Communities philosophy and mindset?
2. What is your favorite memory of the community or the concerts?
3. How did the Grateful Dead and the community affect your life and does it still have an impact on you now?
4. What , in your opinion, caused scandals linked to violence or drug overdoses?
5. What would you recommend new Deadheads that would like to join the community? Is there something they should keep in mind?

So as far as I am concerned the Deadhead Community is exclusively an online thing, that started for me about 10 years ago. Consequently it hasn't changed my life at all, although it is very pleasurable exchanging views with other people who listen to The Dead.
