April 24 (Bloomberg) -- The University of California atSanta Cruz will receive the Grateful Dead's archives from the
surviving members of the group, which helped to define the San
Francisco psychedelic sound, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The collection includes photos, artwork, press clippings,
posters, letters, backstage passes and other documents collected
by the band over 30 years, as well as fan memorabilia, the
Journal said. It doesn't include the group's vault of live
recordings, which still generate new releases and revenue, the
report said.

BK rumor
Now that would have been a strange one as right around when it was posted here, I got an email from GDSTOO list announcing the NYC boat show he is having on June 1st...
if it were not for my daughters dance recital getting out that time, I would so be there...

Press Conference
The Grateful Dead, whose songs celebrated personal freedom, American idealism and mind-altering drugs, will donate a cache of their papers, posters and props on Thursday to the University of California, Santa Cruz, which plans to use the musical miscellany as part of a research center to be known as Dead.
I won't hold my breath waiting for a refund of my contribution to the Terrapin Station project, but after this announcement they should lower the price of the album by ten bucks, at least.
"All that material, which Law explained would have found a home in the Dead's once-planned Terrapin Station museum, will be housed at the McHenry library at Santa Cruz."
RELIX Magazine
There is your answer. I haven't seen this comment in any other article regarding that UCSC deal. It's been more than a week. Don't bet on them posting the MP-3 of that press conference here either...
