I thought something was supposed to be happening with the Covers Project videos here mid-March.

Have to agree with broken angel. There's no link. Had to find this page doing a google search.

If I may ...
While I am greatly appreciative of this site and everything the people here do to make this it possible, please allow me to make a suggestion. It would be nice to see this thread more accessible to the average Joseph and Josephine just passing through to watch videos of friends and family. Perhaps a link on the home page titled ''Watch Dead Cover Projects Videos Here.'' If that is just not doable or too much trouble, I completely understand.
Have a Grateful Day!

Check out our video submission for the 2014 Dead Covers Project. A big thank you to Reiko Yanagi and Steven Speliotis for shooting and editing. Let me know what you think.facebook.com/grantstomb
...and here is the second of the three videos we will be posting as part of the "Grateful Dead Covers Project 2014", Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodleloo!
This ain't an official submission from the INTERLOPERS. I just wanted to share this stuff with y'all...
The INTERLOPERS are the buzz of the What's what, of what's goin' on around the BERKLEE COLLEGE of MUSIC scene, as well as the Greater New England area of the States for that matter. The first time I had the distinct pleasure of catching them live was this past fall, at GARCIA's (The CAPITOL THEATER ).
The INTERLOPERS were the official featured After-party, following the MICKEY HART BAND's absolutely freakin' STELLAR show at the CAPITOL THEATER in Port Chester NY that night...
pretty darn hard act to follow, but I'm tellin' you what...
the INTERLOPERS kept those Positive Vibes & groooove thangs going, going, strong in to the wee hours, & they did it up right; they made it happen CAP'n!!!
Super added bonus...
MICKEY HART's Lead vocalists, CRYSTAL MONEE HALL & JOE BAGALE sat in with the INTERLOPERS on a few tunes - twas sublime!
Keep your antennas tuned for more stuff from the INTERLOPERS, because they're coming, you're going to hear about the shows, & they are going to be gooood, good for your body & good for your soul :D !
Click it...
This is me giving back to Jerry as much as I can, straight from the heart to my keys, with all I learned about music from him. A few bad notes and all. Thank you Jerry.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UH-uY7x2LHk

Sorry to be a burden, but if anyone can tell me how to embed the video link thumbnail, I would appreciated it.
ANSWER: On YouTube, click the Share tab, then click Embed. You will get a window of code. Copy it. Paste it here.
THANK YOU!
one more time.

Thank you!
Was just wondering: Our DCP (Victim or the Crime, by accident of birth) has around 1700 views (putting it in about 6th place of the most viewed videos), and yet does not show up on the Dead's YouTube list. How come?
I've been really digging everyone's stuff! I hope you enjoy my submission this year, missed doing it last year. One of my favorite Hunter/Garcia tunes.
We'll segue into IKYR from almost anything :), but this seems particularly "right", especially when we started playing IKYR in A (for years, we played it in E). Hope you like it.
I pasted the embed html into a comment. No show. OTOH, there's a whole slue of similar postings of the same recent (ie, tonight) vintage. Just the Subject, maybe a line of text or two. No video.weird.
CANCEL THAT!. Just seems to take a minute or so show up.
All is well.
I can verify what gdradio is saying. The youtube playlist has been at 73 videos since about Valentines day.
After a couple of days, we went all out, and our videos are currently tagged all of the following:
DeadCoversProject
DeadCoversProject2014
DeadCoversProject 2014
Dead Covers Project 2014
so I think we've ruled out user error, here.
Let me know if there's anything else that I can do :)
....whatever. Check your Private Messages on your gdnet My Account Page to the right -> INBOX
Also, on their Facebook page banner, there is an -> to the right. If you click that, you can embed you're video into a Comment there too.
This contest is a fun opportunity to pay tribute to this wonderful band.I mean, the contest doesn't even really have prizes, so who cares who wins?
I just like being part of it!
Greetings from The Silent Trees! We're back this year covering Peggy-O.
We're enjoying everyone's videos, what a fun project!
Here's ours, hope you dig it!
If you want to hear more, give us a like on Facebook.
Thanks everyone.
We love you Jerry!!

I guess I didn't know this was a contest, I thought it was just a collection of music...a project. Where does it say it's a contest? Has it been a contest in years past? We're all winners as far as I can tell. Nice playin' ya'll! Peace, JP
Still no post for my submission on the list - I posted very early, sometime in January and I still haven't seen mine hit the youtube list. Just wondering if it will get there. Here's the video url
