Addendum to GD Archives
Apologies for the double posting earlier...
Question: does anyone know if we DeadHeads/fans/collectors of stuff can submit additional material to the archives at UCSC? I have my own (relatively small) stash -- much of it from the parking lot scene ('83-'95), such as flyers I traded, tape covers, stickers, news clippings, photos, etc. I'd bet that many other 'Heads do also and may be willing to share. Just a thought...

This is terrific news! As one who has worked in the museum/curation field (studied pre-historic puebloan/cliff-dweller cultures in the southwestern U.S.) and as a DeadHead, I cannot wait to peruse the archives! Wink, a nod and a high five to Eileen. Way to go!

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."

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...
