Grateful Dead

Sorry if I messed up this thread-perhaps a mod can delete this post if they see it?Thanks, I guess I'm still a little confused about this forum

IJWTS thank you Mary. (:-).

If you are in the Denver area, please come see Juba Juba! at Cactus Jack's in Evergreen, CO, this Friday night, 6/15. I'll be very curious if anyone comes from seeing this on this site, so if you do, please come up to the stage and say "Hi" to Steve. Peace, Steve www.jubajubaband.com

Not sure if this qualifies as an "announcement", but I figured I'd throw in my post and, if it's not appropriate, Marye can take it down. Was on tour pretty steady from late 70's thru mid-80's, then spent the next 10 years or so seeing the boys as often as I could till Jerry passed. Now I see who I can when they swing through town. Still lovin' it. I'm also a filmmaker who recently had a film taken away from me by some rather nasty producers who re-cut it from scratch and turned it into the polar opposite of everything I spent 8 years trying to get made. They released it to dvd with my name still attached as writer and director. I'm now in the midst of a grassroots campaign to get my cut of the film released and I need all the support I can muster up. I've got a web site that includes a petition (really need those signatures), an interview documentary with cast and crew, journalists/writers all talking about the Writers & Director's Cut and why it should be out there, written interviews, articles, etc.. I won't go on as all the information you need is at the web site. All I'll say is I managed to finish the film AFTER it was taken away from me and the response has been beyond incredible. I'll tell you right now that it is a thought-provoking supernatural thriller dealing with some very relevant social issues that was turned into a 2-dimensional horror film once Screen Gems became attached as the film's distributor and Clive Barker's name thrown above the title. If you have ANY interest in artists' rights or even in just adding your name to support this film and myself, It would be greatly appreciated. Take a look at the site and decide for yourself. This is one of the things going on in my life at the moment and the journey I'm currently undertaking. Here's the link: http://www.spreadingtheplague.com Thanks for your time.

I am going into 10th grade, and last year I noticed that no one was Really in to the Dead, THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE. If more people listened to the Grateful Dead, the world would be a happier place, for more reasons than just the music!!!

HIGH PEAKS is the name of an awsome GD cover band in the saratoga and albany area of NY.My step dad was the keyboard player, but he couldn't keep up. Check them out at http://www.highpeaksband.com/ there is music and video with some pictures and dates of upcoming Gigs SPREAD THE WORD

My sympathies to all who remain unfamiliar with the Dead and have not a clue what they're missing out on. I am talking about music appreciation on an unprecedented level and while I understand that it is an acquired taste (I didn't exactly immediately "get" it at first either but "Without a Net" sucked me in). I sneak the Dead into the background when I have friends over or when driving here or there with the hope that I might turn them on to it... not the easiest of challenges but it is a must! When was the last time another band or performer (Jerry) sent such shivers down the spine at that peak moment in a song? So do those near and dear to you a favor and help them wake up to find out that they are the eyes of the world. One way or another this darkness got to give.

I just go the email below from our own Steve-OCongratulations to him and his family! First baby on the new forums . Just to let you know Michael Henry was born today 10/19/07 9:06am. 8lbs. 21 1/2 inches. We are all healthy and happy. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. Wiliam Blake

At 11:00am EST today(1 hour from now) and again at 7:00pm EST today Sirius Satalite Radio will be replaying a run of songs from the 11/20/73 Denver show that is a MUST to hear if u haven't allready...Truckin>drums w/Phill Solo>The Other One>Stella Blue The Phil base solo with the drums is great and gets bigger when he shakes our brothers and sisters in Denver with his intro into The Other One and then it all settles down with a perfectly played (slow dance with ur lover) Stella Blue...Go Listen! 143or245 stay safe and feel good!

...sounds good (re the post above)...of course personally I'm up North snowed in so I won't be making an appearance.... ....but, i have a few new tunes and remixes of the older ones on my page now. The tunes are all tributes to the Dead except for On the Road which is more of a breeze through the beat scene etc (brief and not in depth but I think catchy) and Memphis Hideaway is more inspired by the Dead scene that a tribute to the band. I hope you enjoy them. http://www.myspace.com/dcmuir Merry Christmas all!

everybody sing: Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear Tiger Lily! Happy birthday to you! here is a little gift: http://www.archive.org/details/gd88-04-15.sbd.zei.2020.sbeok.shnf and http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=title%3A%28Grateful%20Dead%29%2… and http://www.archive.org/details/gd1983-04-15.fob.at.miller.87725.sbeok.f… I hope you enjoy the shows and have a GRATE birthday! love and peace!

Me And Tiger Lilly Busted out of Barcelona riding on a train Feeling nearly faded as her dress Tiger Lilly ate some paella just before the rain Farted all the way to Fi-guer-es Well I took my old cassette from my dirty sack Playin' slow while Lilly sang the blues Stinky farts keeping time Holding Lilly's spirit in mine We finallly sang near every song that we knew The Board's just another place to think about The Scene The Board can cheer you up -- if you know what I mean The internet is easy Lord, when there ain't no tour The Board is good enough for me Good enough for me and Tiger Lilly With the kind, grateful folks; rapin' here is fun Lilly shared the secrets of my soul Standing right beside me Lord in everything I done Lilly's spirit kept me from the cold Nowhere never on this Board, I'll let her slip her away Looking for memories I hope we'll find And I'll trade all my straight friends for a single head To be sharing Lilly's spirit, oh so KIND The Board's just another place to think about The Scene The Board can cheer you up -- if you know what I mean The Internet is easy Lord, when there ain't no tour The Board is good enough for me Good enough for me and Tiger Lilly yeah, I'm a re-gifter! Happy Birthday Tiger Lilly!!

ooops, one day early. I thought europe was ahead. anyways, Happy Birthday!!

Happy (would have been) 100th birthday, Edward R. Murrow! "Good night and good luck."

Happy birthday to all who have shared their love and magic with the world. All who have are "famous" in their own right, and by their own right. This is the thread that binds us all. Thank you.

Dr. Albert Hofmann - January 11 1906 - April 29 2008 It saddens us to confirm that Dr. Albert Hofmann passed away at his home in Burg outside of Basel, Switzerland today, April 29 2008 at the age of 102 years. Dr. Hofmann was at his home with two of his caretakers, he passed away at 9am local time. Dr Hofmann follows his late wife Anita, who passed away this past December. We do not have much more information at the moment but we will update this note once more becomes available. We send out condolences to his family and friends and as you all to join us in celebrating the life of one of the most important scientists of the last 102 years. Dr Hofmann's discoveries have touched countless people and brought tremendous change to the world in more ways than can be counted. We are very glad that Dr Hofmann could still witness the early stages of new studies with LSD that will start in Switzerland in the near future. This matter was very important to him, we are grateful to all that were involved in getting approval for this study. We thank you for all you have done dear Dr Hofmann, may your ways be blessed and peaceful. We will keep your spirit alive and will continue with our work.

Copy And Pass Along...Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY gasoline from the two biggest companies (which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL. If they are not selling any gas, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit. But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Exxon and Mobil gas buyers. It's really simple to do! Now, don't wimp out on me at this point...keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!! I am sending this note to 30 people. If each of us s end it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300) .. and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000)...and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth group of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers. If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!! Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all! (If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million and all you have to do is send this to 10 people.... Well, let's face it, you just aren't a mathematician. But I am . so trust me on this one. How long would all that take? If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!! I'll bet you didn't think you and I had that much potential, did you! Acting together we can make a difference. If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on. I suggest that we not buy from EXXON/MOBIL UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $2.00 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK. Keep it going

Yamadaog, We live in a capitalist country and these companies are service/product and ultimately profit driven like most public and private companies. Gas prices are going up for a host of reasons, most of which most people do not understand. Growing demand, limited supply, limited refining capacity, and fast growing middle class in Asia are all contributing to the higher gas prices. $2 gas is history and we better get used to it. Go ask a big oil company that earned $1bn last year to only earn $500mm this year. It isn't going to happen. Alternative energy sources are not the answer either because all that does is reduce the supply of gasoline and cause further inflation. Just like ethanol is doing right now to food prices. I don't know what the answer is, but boycotting isn't going to get it done.

Trippin to the Heavens PEACE Thanks ~ yamadog, I will certainly give that a try! $2 a gallon. Whoo Hoo

Southeast Kansas and Northeast East Oklahoma Deadheads Unite. 98.9 KKRK out of Coffeyville Kansas has started a new forum on their website radioresultsgroup.com specifically for the Dead. Not much action going on but due to an increasingly large amount of requests for the Grateful Dead during their Live at Lunch show they created a Dead thread in their forums. Last week two tickets were given away to the Chautaqua Hills Blues Festival if you answered the trivia question correctly. Only one person replied and won the tickets. Also we are getting kind of bored with only two or three people being active in there. So if you are in the area tune in or log in because there will be more prizes given away. Oh yeah it's kind of weird hearing Sugar Mag or Box of Rain on the radio in this part of the country. Peace, Zac

Happy Birthday! Have a Grateful Day! "You know what the trouble about real life is? There's no danger music."

Lovely picture GRTUD PEACE

PEACE..LOVE...HAPPINESS U R 1 of the GREATEST HAPPY BIRTHDAY WAVY

My mother had successful cancer surgery on August 22nd - prognosis is positive at this point. She has returned home and is resting comfortably.Thanks to each and every one of my true FRIENDS here on Deadnet for their positive vibes and thoughts directed towards my mother. I firmly believe that those healing beams made all the difference for her. Thanks again - and THANK YOU most of all, Gigi - for giving me extra strength when I needed it most. PEACE
