    Is there anyone who knows the acoustics of Pauley Pavilion better than Bill "Grateful Red" Walton? We think not, so we signed him on as a liner note scribe for DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 48, the complete previously unreleased show from UCLA's Pauley Pavilion 11/20/71. He was there, after all, "driftin' and dreamin'" as the Dead shape-shifted through a first set of Americana classics from WORKINGMAN'S DEAD and AMERICAN BEAUTY into their second one featuring truly primal psychedelic jams (a 23+ minute "The Other One"). They peppered in hot takes on tracks from the recently released SKULL & ROSES ("Bertha," "Me And My Uncle," "Not Fade>GDTRFB") and road-tested tunes like "Ramble On Rose" and "Tennessee Jed" that would make the cut on the following year's EUROPE '72. It's all delivered with such precision that we've had to come up with some overtime for disc three. There you'll find 75+ minutes of music from the Kiel Opera House, St. Louis, MO, 10/24/70, with the rest of the show due sometime in the near future.

    Doingtheneedful - I really wish I had posted this last night.....Real Gone emailed me back just after my last post here, and directed me to another site - Real Gone Boot Camp. I don't understand why, but on that site they can sell albums to the UK. When I got through to them they had 5 left. So I was very lucky to be able to get a copy. That must have been about 9 hours ago - so I have probably left it too late to post this. I can only apologise.

    Dave Rock. We’re shiz outta luck I’m afraid. Spoke to RealGone this evening for the same reason, namely no UK shipping option.

    I was reliably (and apologetically) informed that courtesy of good old Brexit, UK trade legislation now requires the International vendor to collect tax and duty at the point of sale - for items either above or below a certain value, he wasn’t quite sure which - and process it on behalf of HMRC. RealGone are not equipped to manage this process as a small vendor and as a result can not offer UK addresses any product at this time.

    Yup. Sucks a phat one does that! Sorry to be the bringer of such bummer news.

    ....Dark Star -> Your Body Is A Wonderland -> Dark Star during his show in Chicago.
    You can take the person out of the Dead, but you can't take the Dead out of the person.
    “I’m not going to set it up, this is going to be the weirdest thing you ever saw in your life and I’m proud to do it,” Mayer told the crowd at his Oct. 18 concert in Chicago, before playing the opening riff to the Grateful Dead classic. “I want you to mark it on the setlist that this is technically ‘Dark Star.’ And I’m going from ‘Dark Star’ into this next song. It’s a transition. I want you to mark the transition.”
    Corny? Perhaps. But he gets IT.

    I think PF mentioned 10-8-81 recently, have to add that the Scarlet>Fire from this show is a favorite, very long and mellow.
    Regarding albums used for weed cleaning, Long John Silver by Jefferson Airplane was designed to be a stash box/cleaning tray, trouble was that the bottom had a picture of weed, so it could be tough to see the real weed :) More often than not I was cleaning the good old "round the town brown" back in those days. These days no cleaning is necessary with the legal weed.

    Says that they are waiting for the remaining 1500.

    Says on the page:
    Now, Dick’s Picks Vol. 2 has seen a very limited vinyl release before, but that release cut its lacquers from CD files. Well, as the recent saying goes, “Lordy, there are tapes!” Yup, Jeffrey Norman of Mockingbird Mastering has gone back to the original Scotch reel-to-reel tapes (pictured in the gatefold inner spread) to bring you a brand, spankin’ new master of this utterly amazing show.

    Brand, spankin’ new master you say?
    Hope that’s not just hype and that this sounds real and spectacular.

    71/70 & 4 discs...

    Hi All, I tried to add comment a few days ago but the site would not let me. Anyway this will be a cool release. In Dave L's seaside chat, he talks highly about the Other One from this show. During the Oct-Dec 1971 run with the newly added Keith, that tune would alternate from being split by another song in the middle ( Bobby McGee, Me & My Uncle, Sitting On Top of the World) to being to just a unbroken version that may or may not have a Cryptical bookend. For this show we get the non-split version which I think will be great to hear. However I am really looking forward to the 1970 material. If the way back machine is not getting dialed back 1967-1968, I feel like 1970 is a nice consolation prize. All around this looks like this is going to an interesting and fun installment in the Dave's Picks series.

    *Also in Dave's seaside chat he mentions that most Dave's Pics are are 3 CDs, but sometimes 4. I then believe he says more on that later. Maybe that was a hint that whatever is coming next, be it some other release or the Dave's Picks 2024 announcement, that 4 discs are on the docket. If it is not from the 1968 or 1970 era, I would love for that to be 2 1985 shows. I can see 2 complete 1985 shows fitting on 4 CDs. Time will tell, but in the meantime, I think we have some great music coming tous in Vol 48.

I am coming to Dave’s 48 with no overloaded expectations, but I know I will love it!!

Regarding lids: One of my favorite Dragnet episodes was when Sgt. Friday attended college courses at night, and caught a student with a “lid” of grass”. The episode had a great ending and I won’t spoil it.
More great Dead music in less than 2 weeks!!

Came in yesterday, have to say a beautiful package.

It's maybe 13 x 13,,, a chunk bigger than lp size. Made like an old photo album. Hinges open with 5 lps in separted cardboard sleeves (all have cover picture)

Cardboard cover is that thick stock with a clear coating.

A very pretty box.

Oh, number 148!

Count me amongst the enjoyers of recent posts. And I have to say, it's made me smile seeing folks offer to use their US-based addresses as destinations for products that can't be directly shipped to the UK, for example. Everybody's playing in the Heart of Gold Band...

And all this talk of '71 is making me want to get on board. I think I'll start by giving a listen to the Austin Road Trips release. I only added it to my collection recently, and I'm still largely unfamiliar with it. Similarly, although Dave's 26 has been in my collection since release, it is criminally underplayed. My brain is just so hardwired to think "Felt Forum" as soon as it hears "Late '71"

It's been a '74 weekend around these here parts, first because I realized there was a Hunter's Trix release of 8/4, and then I prevailed upon my wife to watch The Grateful Dead Movie with me as a birthday present (my birthdate being the anniversary of "The Last One"). I'd completely forgotten that scene where Garcia returns to the dressing room and tears about the place until he leaves again in frustration bc he can't find "water; just ice cold, clean water" :)

Well, I for one have written several messages that the linq identifier rejected, despite no linqs or any such thing in the body of the message. I keep editing the message and trying to submit, before usually giving up and trying to remember what it was and typing it again a day or so later. It's frustrating, especially when there's no actual guideline or red line underneath the offending comment, word, suspected linq, or whatever it is, just the same, stupid, message about keeping the interwebs safe or some crap.

ETA: of course, it didn't happen this time

I have had a few certainly clean posts fly back at me recently also. It's getting to the point where I have to use the wayback machine to go back in time to save a post so it goes through cleanly.

Don't get me wrong, we want to be able to post safely.. perhaps the new algorithm blocks posts created when you are smiling on a cloudy day.

Have a grateful week all. It's great to see a super positive vibe here. In a world of conflict, turmoil and trouble, the last great refuge is the Grateful Dead.

Whenever you post something or send a letter or Email on a Computer or even in regular mail Take a photo of it or Copy and paste it somewhere. Many times I have spent hours writing something and after it failed to send or other reasons it gets lost or deleted and you never can remember what you wrote after spending hours writing it

Copy it take a photo of it

Marye- In response to your last post, have had a problem with sending PM's over the last few days. In 5 attempts, only one has got through. I normally get that "Hey now" message, which is quite annoying. How are we suppose to respond to that? Just say "Hey now..that's okay!" I suppose.
After the failures on the PM board I came on here - but I was blocked and the fake friendly "Hey now" message appeared again. So I gave up

If I have long things to type about, I type them into a word/text file..

I've been burned by the long thing rejected and can't remember all the points made.

At least from a word/text file I can copy and paste in the post box.

I've also had this problem lately - as recently as yesterday. I was trying to reply to Oroborous and the suggestion of a Fall '89 box set. My post had lots of dates and venues, but that's it... the closest thing I could see that might be objectionable was a mention of a somewhat famous internet resource that was popular around that time (The W E L L) but I deleted that and mentions of a certain usenet msg board (I'm now leaving that vague ref here to see what happens) and it still wouldn't let me post.

The problem I have the most is a message that says I answered the reCRAPTCHA answer wrong, even though I was never even shown the question.
In those cases I copy the text, log out, clear browsing history, log back in, and paste the text. Usually works.
Recently I’ve had a few messages like other people are getting that accuses me of using lynx or embeds, even though I’m not.
Of course, I pasted a lynk the other day by making various changes including ‘dot’ instead of .
Then got penalized on my next post after that.

Now, let’s see if I get rejected with this post…..

....a lot of times I'll post something. Then right after, I'll remember something else that I want to add, then edit it. Then I do it again. This doesn't just occur on this site.
For example, I edited this four times. ADHD does that.

I started composing text in a file that can be saved whenever the I know the post will be a long/involved because I had too many that wouldn't post or might get lost. This started before recraptcha stuff.

Since then, I have started to try to organize some of these, as sometimes new posts have things that might relate to old posts.

If any of this can be followed/understood, Congrats. I am not sure right now if I am making sense or have stopped making sense.

I just saw Dave L's seaside chat for the 2024 subscription. Finally, Vol. 49 is 2 complete shows from 1985 at the Frost! I am pumped up for this as I have been requesting 1985 shows for about 3 years. Of course Dave eluded to Vol. 50 with the bonus disc being a big one given the milestone. I also think we are getting something between 90-95 for Vol. 51, based on what Dave says on his seaside chat. I am guessing that will likely be a Bruce and Vince show as we have yet to get that in the Dave's Picks series. Good times all around!

Was unable to find with a search, but happened upon a new Bill Walton video introducing DaP 48 in his own unique way, and in the midst of it, a linq popped up that said Dave's 2024. Clicked upon it, and there verified Grateful Han's news of 4-27-28-85 Frost shows as the next Pick. I'm not as happy as he is about it, really don't like the cassette master releases. Looked at the setlists when I saw Han's post, some interesting things. Will definitely give them a shot. Even the Little Red Rooster gets at least one spin. Would be shocked if it stayed in the rotation when '73 shows like DaP 38 can't. Did break it out again recently, but has nothing on any of the shows from the HCS box.

Hey All, so the seaside chat video for 2024 subscription is well, interesting. I noticed when I watched it that it only had a few views but it was listed as being released 11 days ago. I thought that was odd, so I added that video into my YouTube video library. I did x-out of YouTube as I went about my day. I tried to search for it later but discovered that it is not able to be found on the official Grateful Dead channel. However it is still saved in my video library on YouTube so I did watch it again. Now I have YouTube premium so maybe that allows me to see a video that might have been uploaded but not made available to non premium YouTube audience. I would share a screen shot but I don't think the website permits that these days.

I hope I don't get in hot water for sharing this- although I saw there were anomalies for the video when I first watched it, I did still think it was available to everyone. I was and still am excited about the 1985 releases. Maybe the seaside chat will available for all soon?
