    the really short answer to that is that while we're looking at ways to make the place a bit more navigable, the fact is that the software on which this site runs is seriously deficient in dealing with some of these issues and some things are more fixable than others. Also, there IS a search function right there on the left, right above My Dead.net, which should help somewhat. But believe me, we're aware of the situation and trying to do what we can.

    What is there like 514 pages on deadnet? Why could'nt you give each page a specific number, alphabetical order the topics and maybe have a spot on the home page for search topic {like google} to access topics or pages quicker. If you could remember a specific number, it would be much easier to relate a number with a topic.Just my opinion, Phatmoye

    I would add to Mr. Pid's excellent answer
    that "melted content" does rather rule the day. For example, you'll find almost as many people looking for tix in Tix Offered as people with tix for sale. So discussions are not always where you expect to find them. Hence you may find that search feature in the left-had bar useful also. E.g. if you want to find all discussions involving the Gorge, you can do a search for "The Gorge" and it'll bring up everything with the reference.

    If users who upload photos that are a sequence would include a sequence number in the subject line it might make it easier for other users to follow that sequence, especially if the upload user's identity would return to the fan photo page layout (hint, hint.) If you go to a user's page all their uploaded photos can be found there. Regarding the forums, if you look at the top of left side of any page you should see a nav section titled "table of contents." The sixth major item from the top is the doorway to all forum topics regardless of how recently anyone has posted in them. It will take a little poking around to figure out where everything is as there are many nooks and crannies holding the melted content. Sorry, couldn't resist. Perhaps if there was a page structured like an exploded tree of links to all forum topics (sort of like a site map) it might make it easier for users to find specific topics more readily. Dialup? Ouch. I feel your pain. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

    photo question
    Sometimes people post a series of photos and I notice if I comment on one of them it removes it from the series and takes it to the top of the latest post list, disrupting the original series. Is there a way that the person posting the series can note on page that it is part of a series of say, five and a way that the viewer can easily look at the series?Also, someone here in one of the forums mentioned some topics being buried beneath other topics. Is there a list of all forums? Perhaps I am just missing some obvious accessibility but there are certain forums that haven't been posted in, in awhile and I would like to go back and read. For example I am always looking for a good book to read and if I dig around I could probably find that book forum but I would love a big old list. Peace & Music from old Docks here, on dialup, in more ways than one. Again, Peace

It was initially on the "Skeleton and Roses" (or Skullfuck) live album. (I believe) and then you can find it on the Dicks Picks Album(s) # 3, 7, 12, 13, 14, 18, 24, 25, 29, 31, 33, and 33 that you can order from the store here. It is one of my favorites and heard the Dead first play that on 616-74 and loved it ever since. It signals classic and emotional dead jams and often is at the heart of wonderful second sets. That is what I know. Get one of those and you will never regret it.

Have been having alot of trouble obtaining a copy of Dicks Picks #25 (New Haven/Springfield 1978). I tried to order it through a record store who has most of the others on their shelves, to no avail. Tried a few spots on the internet & came up empty also. Any suggestions? Please post an answer or send an email. Many Thanks, Patrick

I just ordered a CD which I thought was a new GD release called "Not Fade Away". Upon furthur checking I discovered that this is a low quality import. Do the band members get any compensation for products like this? Brian Michaelson

It's true, this is set up so only mods (i.e. izzie and I ) can start topics. However, if you send either of us a message about a topic you'd like started, we're usually pretty responsive. Maybe a little slower with the holidays, but just let us know and we'll do our best. Thanks!

Is quite the mystery man. I have tried to find out some info about him. I just know that he is an awesome artist that does alot of posters for concerts and feativals.. Even his site Terripan Productions says it has his bio but when you click into it, it just shows a picture of a snake. Yep good question!! Peace :)

be very careful with this. There are a lot of bootleg GD DVDs flying around Europe which are in fact hacked together compilations from various VFTV and other releases. I pointed this out to Rhino a while back and they all disappeared from Amazon soon after. The set list for this one (from Play.com) makes me suspect it is something similar...... # Bertha # Little Red Rooster # When Push Comes To Shove # Bird Song # The Music Never Stopped # Hell In A Bucket \ Happy New Year # Uncle John's Band # Lady With A Fan # Terrapin Station # The Other One # Wharf Rat # Throwing Stones # Not Fade Away # Knockin' On Heaven's Door

Not sure really what the value is in adding this info to the posts. Why is it important? You can look it up if you want to. If the techies have that much time on their hands please ask them to fix the system to DISPLAY THE LAST POST FIRST. Now that would be useful!
