Looking for a copy of a documentary of the 1980 Oakland NYE show

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!

Hello friends,I am looking…

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!

RE: GD Cassettes to a good Home

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

GD Cassettes to a good Home

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.

Only The Strange Remain studio demo

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.

Looking for posters

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!

Good luck in your quest

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...)

Lithuania Olympics Hat

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.

Does Anyone Know Where To Find....

A Gate Crashers Suck Tee-Shirt? as for me i was a little young for the scene and I was watching the '95 end of the road Dvd, when that guy Russ was selling stickers and Tee-Shirts that said "Gate Crashers Suck" on the front and " Thanks For Ruining Our Scene" on back... If anyone has any idea on where to find one via website, store, anything like that please let me know, I am in desperate search of one.

joses late nite final 1982

Looking for info on this P1010013.jpg Value, rarity, where to find more info, etc.

Op

is that the color separation for the poster?

Seems so

Appears as they went to add the next set of colors they put them upside down mistakenly. I purchased this about 15 years ago in Portland Oregon. As far as I know there is only one and this is it...

Sorry

For hijacking your post but this site will not let me start my own thread...

very true, it won't

no problem, this is close enough to the right topic! Are you in Portland? I lean to the theory that the next time Antiques Roadshow comes through town you should score a ticket and bring this thing. Then we'd ALL know! I think the dude with the aloha shirts and the ponytail (aha, here's his Web page: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/roadshow/series/appraisers/s-z/sohmers.html) would have a pretty good idea what the deal was. I used to know who the experts in SF were, but my knowledge is very out of date. You might want to email ol' ponytaildude about the thing and see what he says. Then come back and tell us!

Acoustic Live Dead CD's

Any for sale in the dead.net store? Already have DP 13, 14, 29, 32, 34, 35 & 36 but looking for some live acoustic recordings if there are any on CD. Thanks, Mike D

A band called pranava

I am looking for music by this band called Pranava. I was given a demo tape at a west coast dead show in the year of who knows when. It was mostly instrumental, but there were some words as well. I do remember a song called comes around here. The words were some thing like" it goes around again and up and down again and barely comes around here" or something like that. awesome instrumentals. I lost my mind a couple of times listening to that tape and then I lost the tape. Does it sound familiar to anyone? I would love to know.

blt

This band here? http://www.pranava.com/

marye

UMM yeah... I feel pretty dumb right about now. I have googled them before and get religion info. It never occured to me to try that. Thank you so much. "show me something BLT2LST something built to try"

well, cool!

yeah, I gather the name has religious significance in a tradition with which I'm not too familiar, but there they were a bit down the page in the search. Tell us more about the band when the dust settles!

Taper's Compendium 2

Ahoy,Can anyone please help me find a copy in good shape of the Deadheads Taping Compendium no.2? Please let me know the price that you ask. If possible an estimate of the postage in the U.S. (if you happen to live there, off course). Otherwise the book has to be sent to The Netherlands, where I live. I already own no. 1, which I enjoy very much. The episodes of the early history of the band and of the acid tests are excellent. I also use the book to read about the shows that I have and the ones that can be downloaded from the internet. I borrowed no.2 from a friend but he does not want to part with it and copying the entire book is just too much. I also looked in 2nd hand bookshops but the Grateful Dead are not very popular here so I can't find a copy here. So if you want to part with a book that you have but don't use anymore you can do me a great favor. "Ship of Fools"

Old Hippie

I found mine on Amazon.com used (had several to chose from) and it wasn't too pricey. Good luck!

Pendent

I am wondering if there are any Grateful Dead pendants out there? I don't really want a cheap one that will turn my neck green like i have the plague, haha. I appreciate all of your help. Thank you, Joseph <><

Hey JosephDurham

Check out Hippieshop.com they have lots of pendants to choose from $10 to $1000! Have fun shopping :)

Found Interesting Vinyl

I recently found a mint condition set of vinyl recordings of the Dead Live at Gizah. It is a 3 album set of all three days 9/14 915/ and 9/16, 1978. They have never been played and comes in the original box with the original sticker and the original program from the show. What is something like that worth???

stickers

i have a bunch of stickers that my father confiscated at a Hartford, CT civic center show. I was wondering if there were folks interested in buying them. I hope this is the right spot to ask questions about that. thanks Steph ;)

steph...

that's gotta be some kind of classic!

but

you might have better luck posting stuff for sale in the Your Own Storefront topic.

confiscated stuff

How about asking if anyone remembers something being confiscated, ask what it was and giving it back to them? For free of course. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

special offer

at one show I was right up front and when Bobby got all excited like he does I got showered in spittle. So I scraped some into a an empty Monster Munch packet I had in my pocket and kept it. Do you think anyone out there would like to buy it?

who pays...

for the DNA testing?

Marye

that is a grate one :) DNA LOL!!

apology

I would like to apologise for the crassness of my previous post. Having re read it carefully and thought about it a lot I realise now after some calm reflection that it was not sufficiently crass to express the sense of outrage I intended. I promise to try harder next time. btw Marye, I can provide a 'Genuine Certificate of Authenticity' for an extra 10 bucks!

Confiscated stuff

I'd like to applaud Hal R for taking the moral high ground here, but I'd like to see it go a half-step furthur. Let's say the rightful owner of the stickers could be found. Then let's say Steph puts the stickers up for bid on a storefront for, oh, I don't know, a month. Then at the end of the month, Steph "confiscates" the amount of the winning bid from her father, and returns that and the stickers to the rightful owner. Tut Zut! Whaddaya say? Wanna be known as Even Saint Steph(en)? Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

hmmm

..of course 'Steph' could be perpetrating an exceptionally cunning prank here...... or maybe not??

Prank or no?

Hard to say. No sign of Steph over on Shakedown Street yet. Regarding ownership authentication, all we know so far is stickers and Hartford. What isn't known yet is year of show, design on stickers, and approximate number of stickers. Those are things that whoever had them confiscated would probably know. Anybody who thinks that these things might belong to them could consider PMing Steph with that info. Likewise, Steph might consider keeping those details private, for now. And if it is just some kind of prank, I guess eventually we'll all be let in on the joke. Otherwise, there's not much of a point to it, is there? Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

Hey now BLT2LST

Did you know that Pranava in Sanskrit means "humming,Literally. I have never heard of them good luck!!

stickers addendum......

the stickers are of steal your face, shakedown and a larger one of jerry dated 83 and a partial roll of worchester oct 8&9 from 84. also are window stickers of shakedown and a one eyed skull with roses and a bone. pop was a security guard there by the way and he confiscated stuff at other shows too.... he also gave me about 6-8 tapes as well. not a joke folks, if any one interested i will scan them into the computer. steph

THE DEAD : Aug 19 2004 : Official Concert Recording

Apparently, this is no longer available for purchase, but I would love to get my hands on that last show in Atlanta. If somebody has it and doesn't mind burning it for me, I'll gladly pay for postage etc., and make a donation in the amount of the CD to a Grateful Dead charity. I would buy it from the band if I could, and not looking for a freebee - just no other way for me to get it. Thanks. JB

80's Somthing Poster

I recall a flag at a show once, or it may have been a poster. It was the image of a Minuteman holding a replica of Jerry's guitar. Does anyone else remember this? My first show was 83 but I don't think I saw that one until later on. I would really like to find a poster or something that I can use for an image design, Thanks in advance everyone or anyone . . . . .

Lot Tees

I'm interested in finding some of the fun parody t-shirts that used to pop up in the lot (for example: Morning Dew in the style of the Mountain Dew Logo, etc.). Anyone have any ideas? There are a few on ebay, but I feel like there have to be more out there for sale on the internets. Muchos Garcias
