Our friends the Rhinos have various and sundry new releases in the development process, but they're always interested in hearing what you'd like to see hit the virtual shelves of the Store. No promises, but you never know...

This topic is for requesting new DVDs. There are also topics for box sets and individual shows.

If you've already requested something in the previous Requests topic, you don't really need to request it again, but hey, if you just can't help yourself...

More videos please

I have purchased every official video release from GDM. All of these I have purchased again when they were re-released in the DVD format. So what I'm saying is that if you release video, ANY video, I will buy it. I promise, on this you can rely. Why have there been NO videos released since View From the Vault 4? Don't you want our money? Here's the deal: You offer videos for sale- I will buy them. You give me videos, I give you American dollars. Does that sound fair to you? By the way, do you realize it's been OVER five (5) years since VFTV4? Did you guys just space on putting out the videos? Sometimes I space out on doing stuff. Maybe if you tie a bow around your little finger, it would remind you to put out a few videos. So right now as soon as I post this, I'm heading out to get a big chunk of dough to give to you!!! All ya gotta do is drop a couple of videos... I know you can do it. Just try it, we'll all be so happy, it will be like the Forth of July!! Thank you for your co-operation in this matter. Sincerely yours, Bud Plant

Pre 1978

We were thrilled when the View from the Vault series started. Every year we got a new show that was great to watch. Then it dried up. Why???Yes, Sunshine Daydream is great. Especially if there would be more film footage then on the Pranksters movie. The music on the soundboard tapes is great. I prefer pre 1978 shows. But I am certainly not picky. Restart the series on a regular basis. As you can see everybody is longing for MORE. _________ Ship of Fools

Fillmore East Footage

I was just channel surfing when I came across a documentary about 70's music ("Have A Nice Decade") on VH1 Classic, and they mention The Allman Brothers and show some old live footage, I take a second to look and see if it's with Duane, and it was! Then after a few seconds on the bottom of the screen it says "Fillmore East 1970" (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). The reason I bring this up here is, didn't The Dead play with the Allmans at the Fillmore (I'm asking sarcasticly) maybe a couple of nights in February (I'm still being sarcastic). And if the cameras were rolling for The Allmans there's no reason to think they weren't rolling for The Dead, which means there's profesionaly done footage of The Dead at the Fillmore East in 1970. And to support this theory I'd like to bring up a video I've recently downloaded of Frank Zappa With John And Yoko sitting in, at the Fillmore East June 6 1971, that looks just the same as what was on VH1. So there's probrably all this great footage sitting somewhere. WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE WAITING FOR!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! THEY ARE SITTING ON A FORTUNE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not one of these putz's that think this should all be free and I think most people feel the same way. The people who own this footage have a nation of dead heads drooling to get this stuff, to pay like they would for any other live music DVD from any band they way we pay for the "View From The Vault" releases, The Dead Movie,and so on. I don't know if the Rhino people or anyone in that decision making proccess look at what's written here. But if they do I think I speak for a NATION of Dead Heads when I ask "What Are You Waiting For"?!?!Check Out My Orignal Music at myspace.com/salaversano

Shows

''Whatever it is 60's,70's,80's,90's,''I don't mind witch,I LOVE IT ALL''.Put two shows on the DVD, like what they did on, VIEW from the VAULT 4. Or how about 6 shows on 2or3 discs. That's not asking to much is it. ''PEACE my Sisters & Brothers''. ''''''''''''Long Live JERRY'''''''''''

DVDs

I would LOVE to see the closing week at Fillmore West show (7/2/71). The movie 'Last days at the Fillmore' showed 2 songs, Casey jones and Johnny B. Good, but they must've filmed the whole show. I hear the band felt they didn't play their best that show. SO!!! I still want to see it.

Europe 72 (and anything with Pigpen) DVD Footage

I would love a pro quality DVD release of the Grateful Dead on European TV from the Europe 72 tour, like the TV From The Tivoli and the Beat Club broadcasts. Anything with Pigpen would be great too, maybe a bonus DVD of the Dead being fronted by Pigpen.

Releases We'd Like To See

So Far

how bout releasing "So Far" for purchase besides being included in the new "all the years combined" collection. i'm sure, as i, the lot of us already have all the others and have been patiently waiting for a new. Furthermore, how about that blue ray ?

Another vote for 7/2/89

or 7/14/90 would do!

Fillmore West

Just watched a DVD about the closing of The Fillmore West and Bill Graham's business style. In addition to an incredible two songs by The GD... Santana, Jefferson Airplane and other "groups" were showcased. July 2nd,1971 is the date of The Grateful Dead's performace... it's obvious that this whole show was filmed, complete with close up's of Jerry and Bob and split screens of the crowd and twirling girls... Rhino probably doesn't have the rigbts to this footage... but it is so good, they should try to get it whoever owns it should release it themselves..

Sunshine Daydream official release

The best show of all time deserves a formal release

Also more Blu-Ray

No more releases on DVD!

1982?

As I stumbled out of the Oregon Country Fair on Sunday, wondering where we left the car, I asked if they filmed the 1982 show there? Also curious to know where the stage was for these shows, if anyone remembers.Would make a lovely box set-Sunshine Daydream 72 and the 10th anniversary show in 82. Just sayin........

I'll have to dig out my slides from '82

and see if they tell us anything.

8/27/72 Sunshine Daydream.

I recently went to my local HMV and bought a bootleg DVD of this show. It cost 10 bucks and only has 7 or 8 songs on it. Other entities are making money on this by somehow getting "reputable" music stores to sell copies. So yeah... It needs to be an official release.

1995-06-30 - Rain!

Not the best performance of the available 90's video screens but awesome energy because of good old mother nature.

Now that SSDD is a reality (Wow!), 7/18/89 Alpine

Already seen it at meet up at the movies last year. Throw in the Music Never stopped (and the rest of the end of the 1st set cut off from Downhill on 7/17/89 as a bonus). You guys already have the footage. It sounds great. A very good show. Not on the level of SSDD, but almost nothing is.

Foxboro 7/2/89 - i agree!

This would be an awesome release... The soundboard isn't in circulation, at least I could never find it! The show is an absolute monster too... Playin' -> Crazy Fingers to open the first set and an incredible up-tempo Friend of The Devil to start the second set.

Alpine Valley Show

Please, you put it on the big screen for us. We all went to the "Dead night at the Movies". That show is complete, just waiting to be purchased and mailed to us. We need to see Jerry again, grinning at Brent and the whole band roaring that night. What are you waiting for? Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself.

8/4/2017 Jerry's 75th B-day Celebration at Red Rocks

I know this isn't really the right forum for this but w/ the ad-hoc bands that played it's hard to find the "Right Site". What an incredible show! I didn't see a ton of shows (~20 from '73-'87), and all in the northern plains and midwest. Some were great, all but 1 were very good. This show at Red Rocks was the best. Please publish it! DVD would work. Just the music would be fine with me.

6.30.95

sorry for repeat

agree...incredible convergence of GD and mother nature.

Château d’Hérouville 1971-06-21

The show was filmed by ORTF (the former French national TV agency), and the original should be in the ORTF archives in the Institut National de l'Audiovisuel. Get a copy, clean it up, sync it with the SBD that was also made that night, and profit (spiritually and financially).

Would love to have a CD from Santa Cruz Fair grounds 9-24-83

Please make enough copies for every one Daves picks only puts out 20,000 not enough missed out on the last two

So Far - Outtakes and All Footage Shot

So little has been released from 1985 - can we have the So Far sessions released in total on video, and if you want to include all of the '85 NYE with Ken Kesey and Bill Walton and Guido Sarducci talking about USS Merrimac and Wagner himself, that'd be okay as well!

Fare Thee Well shows --- Santa Clara!

Why does everyone always forget about these great!! shows? I would love to own a box set of these wonderful two performances!, especially 6/27/2015. Awesome!!
Thanks for reading!

Woodstock footage

I would love to see a DVD release of the Woodstock performance. The version of Dark Star is really quite beautiful - I was listening to it and watching it on You Tube and my cat became fascinated by it and came and sat on the keyboard so as to get close to the screen. I played it many times, but now it has been removed for copyright reasons. I would love to have access to the video footage as well as the music, once again!!!

Hey, hows about we quit…

Hey, hows about we quit laming around and start releasing Summer 89' video box sets. Start with complete Alpine and go from there. Mixes need not be flat. Gets get some energy. There is such a thing as over mastering.

I am in the Boston area with…

I am in the Boston area with an extra ticket to the movie today if someone wants it. I am going to the fenway theater. 617 686 9653

DVD Box: Centered on summer '89

I second that emotion. Alpine '89 has to be the center. But I think a MeetUp at the Movies type box would be fantastic, similar to the All The Years Combine DVD box.

Out:
2011: GD Movie (no need)
2013: Sunshine Daydream (no need)
2018: Crimson, White, & Indigo (7/7/89, Philly)
2019: Giants Stadium Box (7/17/91)

In:
2012: 7/18/89 Alpine
2014: 4/12/72 Beat Club, Bremen, West Germany
2015: 7/19/89 Alpine
2016: 7/2/89 Sullivan Stadium
2017: 7/12/89 RFK, DC
2022: 4/17/72: Tivoli, Copenhagen (Danish TV)
2023: 6/22/91, Soldier Field, Chicago
Plus: 7/17/89 Alpine (Downhill Omits the last 2 of the first set, and this is the centerpiece of the release)

That's 8 shows. 6 complete. Add some of the others back in if you want more.

Beat Club

Can we get the Beat Club Europe 72 show? It would be great to have a blu ray quality release
