    where is the "my shows" feature?

    where is the "my shows" feature? And why does 2/25/95 show up in the archive when 2/24/95 is selected....was reported as not functioning properly several times and yet...

    this site is not up to Dead standards of quality. Very frustrated.

    Thank you for your response…

    Thank you for your response and ideas. I was hoping to find a fan that would want it. And this place is full of them. Is there not a place on the site to post something like this? Plus with auctions you have to pay a percentage and I'd rather sell the painting for less to someone that really wants it. Again, thank you very much for your help. Here is a linke to eBay where I have it posted if you are interested in seeing it - https://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Grateful-Dead-Painting/253990201481

    Off the top of my head
    I'd do some internet searches for recent auctions of Dead memorabilia (there have been some notable ones lately as people's estates come up, etc.) and get in touch with the relevant auction houses. Also I see recent auctions of Pernish's work in a quick Google search, so I think it might be worth your while to research this a bit.

    How To Sell A Painting of PigPen

    Hello,
    I have a very nice oil on canvas painting of PigPen that was done by Paul Pernish in 1967 that once hung in a coffee shop on California Avenue in Palo Alto, California where the band used to hang out. The band knows this painting and it is stunning. It was a part of the John Bolles collection at one time. John Bolles was the architect that designed Candlestick Park, as well as many other San Francisco area landmarks. This painting is very well known and has real Grateful Dead, Bay Area, and artistic history. I'm interested in selling it and don't know if this site, or where on this site, would be the best place to do that. Would you, or someone, please help me. You can also pm me and I can send pictures. It really is quite special. Thank you in advance for your help. Peter

    shows in archive off by a day?

    Someone noticed this recently in the 30 Days comments, why are all the shows are off by a day when viewing them in list view? The data seems correct when you are viewing the full show detail page however. Seems like some weird parallel Grateful Dead universe.

    The links are at the bottom of the 30 Days Main Page. I'm surprised so many people have missed this...

    It's a bummer that we poor saps who live outside the USA can't go in for the competition as I actually know the answer to Day 7.
    Is this ever likely to be changed ?

Hello I am wondering if I could get help on an order for a shirt that I placed a month ago. I bought this as a Christmas present, but the site won't accept my information to find out where it is? I sent in an inquiry and I received an automated email telling me to do the same thing that I have been trying to do with no help.

Hoping helping... :-) :-) :-)

I'd like to know why the support for the store is MIA. Has anyone else had this issue? I purchased the American Beauty 50th so I could have the 2/18/71 show. The FLAC download has a corrupted cutoff GDTRFB and it's missing the NFA Pt. 2 and Uncle John's. I've reached out to support but they are MIA. Any ideas how to get ahold of them?

Hello, I'm sorry if this is off your topic but maybe you can help. I have written a nice book about the music from the early Brent Mydland years of the Grateful Dead, about 400 pages. I want to get permission to use a certain image on the cover, and to use a certain lyric for the title. Do you happen to know who I should be in touch with about this project? Thanks! --Ryan Bouchard

Many years ago I found 2 more verses and a bridge/chorus(?) posted online for Uncle John's Band. The source was alleged to be an acoustic set Jerry did at a small club (The Matrix?).
One verse starts with: "Why wait in the dark for dawn when the sun's still going down?"
Another starts with: "Would you carry me uphill, back the way I carried you?"
I don't want to post the full verses since I can't vouch for their authenticity.

Has anyone ever heard recordings of these verses? Any more info on them?

I would see what the Grateful Dead Annotated Lyrics had to say on the subject.

The manuscript version of the song includes these lines: Why wait in the dark for dawn / (while) when the sun's still going down?/ Maybe I'll dust off your chair/ If you say you're comin' 'round... There's more. Thanks, Wahrlock, and it's never a bad day to dive into the annotated lyrics...

Thank you for turning a long term frown into a smile! I have loved you since I touched your foot at the Garden Pier in AC & I am so happy you found the beautiful love of your life, your lovely children & that you got to got to have such a wonderful family. And I’m also very happy that you were able to meet and fill the great relationship with your biological father, something we were never allowed to do because that was a bad man within my mother died while I was in college, both of them very young and unexpectedly so many different. I hope you don’t mind, but I need to see if you have a source that could help me both my husband and I were born with congenital birth defect, mine left me permanently, disabled at only 34. Then hurricane Sandy was it a direct hit to us as a full strength, hurricane, and we were not allowed to live in our home for eight years a week after that we were diagnosed with hereditary autoimmune diseases and our doctors this time absolutely forbid us from going back to work outside the home as we have no immune system. For the last 14 years, we’ve both been struggling very hard at our small office assistance or badly struggling due to all this. We are in foreclosure on our home. I am not writing this to ask you for a handout but just for source or sources. I have an idea about a book card like to write about the Grateful Dead and I need someone who can help me find the sources and even corroborate Either as a co-author or anything that they would like to be called. I hope and pray you see this message and you can point me in the right direction so we don’t lose our home that my husband spent eight years in his blood. Sweat and tears rebuilding because that would devastate us both. Thank you Bobby and God bless you and your beautiful family.

the show listing itself here under archive and "mark attended". Use the search and enter date to find the show listing. Thanks to another poster here (Dancin Fool) I just figured that out too.
Cheers

Hi Mary, I wonder if you could help me. I am a long time subscriber to Dave's Picks. However, I am moving to a new address in February 2024. How do I update the address so that my Picks will come to my new address. Thank you.
