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...

8/27/72

Another yes for Sunshine Daydream. We have heard about this film for years. 35 is long enough. That is more time than the start of WW II to the resignation of Nixon. Please, while some of us heads are still around and have the eyes and ears to enjoy it. It's release won't do us much good when we are dust. Do I contradict myself?

A couple of more ideas........

After doing a little exercise to the "Truckin of toe Buffalo" DVD, I realized that there were some HOT shows during this tour! How about the show before: 7/2/89 Sullivan Stadium! Playin > Crzy > Wang Dang SHOW OPENER! My goodness! The whole show is amazing! And how about the show after: 7/7/89 the last JFK Stadium show! The band was again in top form! How about releasing the whole TOUR! Also forgot to mention..... Would love to SEE some video of The Greek shows from ANY YEAR (preferably 1985 though!) That is it for now. I am not asking too much, am I? (^_^)

Yo quiero Sunshine Daydream.

"From day to day, just lettin' it ride,You get so far away from how it feels inside, You can't let go, 'cause you're afraid to fall, But the day may come when you can't feel at all."

Dead/ dylan Videos

...shall we go, you and I while we can... Two problems. One, Dylan wasn't satisfied with the shows himself, so he's disinclined to release the performance. That's why it wasn't on the VFTV release. Two, Jerry was very protective of those videos. After the show, he had a designated person bring him the video master, which he would put in his briefcase before leaving the venue. There probably aren't too many of these in the vault, although David Lemeiux would know. I thought some of them might turn up for the recent auction of the contents of his home, but didn't. So maybe the guy who bought his house or, more likely, Deborah Koontz, has them.

Dylan/Dead Video

I was at the D/D in Anaheim and most of it was released in the Vault Video with the Oakland show but I would love to see the footage from the Dylan set and the encores... I agree with HighVibe on the late 80s and early 90s shows. Many of the shows I was at had the screens i.e. Shoreline etc... So there has to be Video out there waiting to be released! - Eric

Dylan and the Dead - Giants Stadium July 12, 1987 +

The whole show had huge video screens going so you know that the cameras and footage are there! Would also like to see something, possibly a montage of some restored footage from the early to mid 70's. I am guessing there is a ton of footage out there with great audio to match it with. It doesn't matter if the whole show is not there, etc.... It would be great to just start getting that stuff out there. I feel it has been long over due and I was expecting (now that it is 12 years since Jerry is gone) that more video footage would be out there! Other requests would be: Silver Stadium 6/30/88 Warlocks 10/9/89 Nassau 3/29/90 Anything from Europe 1990 Shoreline 8/16/91 Oakland 10/31/91 - Bill's goodbye show Oakland 10/31/92 - Jerry Garcia Band - Jerry's 1st show back after his coma Any 199?'s show from Las Vegas - The Silver Bowl (what a magical place!). Shoreline 6/2/95 - the last west coast shows and the Gyoto monks - WOW! Praying for that miracle video! Brother A

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
