    Got it at 12:02AM. Subject
    Got it at 12:02AM. Subject says "Roseland Confirmation". Body of email is sparse. Venue instructions, time and location of show, and my name in bold print. Has a link at the bottom for Dead.net complete contest rules.BTW, I sent GDTSTOO a rather direct email about an hour ago telling them what I thought about the whole shebang.

    Confusion about "Guest" - Help Dead.net, need some clarity (^_^)
    I am a winner for Roseland and I did not see any place on my entry form to enter in the name of a guest. My winning email clearly states that "I have been selected to receive (2) tickets" but I do then also see on the email that it says, "The person accompanying them must be the same individual whose name is provided upon entering the ticket giveaway and this person must also provide a valid state-issued PHOTO ID in order to enter." And, my winning email has my name as BOTH the Winner and the Guest! Myself (Winner) and my guest are driving from very far tomorrow for the show, so we hope to get some clarity on this here in the next 12 hours before we hit the road! Boy this is confusing!!! I am praying that this is like how they did it when Phish played at the Filmore and you simply need to show up at the door with your guest (whoever it is) and if your name is on the list (as the winner) for 2 tickets it gets you both in. If someone from Dead.net gets this with any affirmation or clarity on this you can email me a response directly at antonio@dailypassion.com See you on the dance floor! (^_^)

    Further evidence that the latter part of the email related to the sweepstake entry on Friday from 6-9 is because this is what the entry form asked for, which is in the fine print of your email: Entrant's First Name Entrant's Last Name Entrant's Email address First Name of Entrant's Guest Last Name of Entrant's Guest

    This is the email I got. The top portion clearly does not sound like a sweepstakes entry. I took it that I had won. I figured the bottom portion of the email related to the initial entry into the sweepstakes from 6-9pm on Friday. When I get an email stating "You will be sent an email confirmation voucher that you must print and provide for entrance to the event", I take it to mean "You will be sent an email confirmation voucher that you must print and provide for entrance to the event".

    O.K. Here is the original e-mail I received from GDTS
    In the subject line: The Dead 3/30/09 Roseland Ballroom - you've been selected Hello, You have been selected for the GDTS TOO allotment of tickets for The Dead's performance at the Roseland Ballroom on Monday, March 30, 2009 at 11:00 PM. The intention of this small venue show is to provide an opportunity for fans to see The Dead in an intimate setting for free. Here's the deal.... You must respond to this email by Saturday, March 28 at high noon! Do not phone or email with any questions or you will be disqualified! This offer is non transferable, it is for you only! You and your guest must have a photo ID for entrance into the show. 2 tickets per person limit No tickets will be mailed out. You will be sent an email confirmation voucher that you must print and provide for entrance to the event. Once at the venue all concertgoers will be required to provide photo identification along with a copy of the email voucher which will be checked against our record of your confirmation. Once confirmed you will be allowed entrance into the concert. To avoid long lines; you are strongly encouraged to arrive early. You must enter the venue upon arrival and there are no in/out privileges. Please return this email with an "accept" or "decline" in the subject box. Again, this email must be returned by Saturday at High Noon. I responded "accept" and that was the last I heard from them.

I call Promised Land as the opening song of the first show in NC. last Dead tour in 2004, tix prices were something like 70$ I do not remember if that was before or after the bullshit Ticket Price Blaster 'convenience' charge or will call pick up bull shit extra charges. Phil and Ratdog for NYE 2008 were 65$ but Dec. 30th was only 45$ BEFORE the bullshit sur-charges. any link for that 5/9 ticketmaster thing, please?

http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/09004227B6A85BD0?artistid=865713&majo… Dinna pay anywhere near $70 to see The Dead or TOO. and just saw Dog where the top price was about $35 in a small venue. The prices listed above are in line with what other bands are charging, but we were kinda hoping for something affordable. Looks like obly one show for me.

I've seen this listed as "an Evening With" in a news report, which would makes it sound like the Dead and only the Dead.

I live in Pittsburgh, PA. I am a father of 3 and I work 60+ hours a week. After seeing the magic happen at Penn State, I am doing EVERYTHING I can to make 5 shows happen. If you want it, you gotta go get it. I am hitting GREENSBORO (8+ hours drive), MSG (either 7 hours drive, or I may have to FLY to get there), BOTH Philly shows (6 hours drive) and haven't decided between Chicago (would have to FLY) or Buffalo (4+ hours drive). I am not "loaded". I know I don't have the cash so readily available. But I am going to do everything I can to make it happen. This is IT, in my opinion. I cannot imagine these guys doing another tour of this magnitude after this one. So, (in the immortal words of Badfinger) if you want it - here it is, come and get it, make your mind up fast - you'd better hurry 'cause it's going fast.

If you think about it the uncertainty of it all is what made touring with the Grateful Dead such a thrill. Obviously we are all older now and probably (hopefully) better off than we were 20 years ago and with that I think comes the sense that uncertainty makes us uneasy. It's kind of too bad you know because I'll never forget the adventure of loading into a junker automobile with little to no money, gas, food and tickets (fully aware the shows you were driving to were sold out). We would drive 1200 miles to Cali, sleep in the car and somehow some way make it into at least a few shows and more amazingly make it 1200 miles back home (one year our car was in such bad shape we had to drive 25 mph the whole way home). I'll never forget those times and those memories are what make the Dead all the more special. More than just a band.

Granted I only got a few shows in before Jerry died, but those times will be with me forever. Being 17 and driving out to Vegas with no money, no hotel reservations, no responsibility and a crap load of beer to sell in the parking lot. Sleeping in the car with old friends, new friendss, then driving 6 hours home to San Diego after the Sunday show - all in time to make it to school Monday morning. I wish I had more years to follow the boys, but I'm grateful for the shows I was able to make and will always be thankful it was in time to see Jerry. I love hearing all the tour stories from HEads older than I am, always puts a smile on my face! Once again, I can't wait for May!!!

Those Vegas show were the bomb!! I was there in 91, 93 and 94 (not sure why I missed 92) and each time we had no hotel and we pretty much didn't sleep - LSD works good for that! But anyways one night we had to sleep so we snuck into the pool area at the Frontier and slept on the pool lounge chairs, woke up the next day about 9am to find the entire pool and every chair occupied by the hotel guests - people with their families, little kids, the works. We had to look like total bums laying there asleep in all our clothes! I still can't believe we didn't get arrested. Not to mention my buddy trying to bet his tickets at the blackjack table. Oh man! Thanks for jogging my memory of those Vegas shows! "Everybody's braggin' and drinking that wine, I can tell the queen of diamonds by the way she shines.

I made it to 92, my first show, only had tickets for Sat and was miracled in on Fri and Sunday. Slept (not really ;o) in the back of my 83 Honda civic behind some random strip mall. It was awesome, first time I had been to anything like that before and I fell in love. I've often said this before, but even though I was fairly young, I just felt at home in the parking lot, like big ole arms opening up and hugging me. Silly I know, but that's just the way it made me feel. I was back the following year (93) for a bitchen show, I can still remember the thunder and lightening cracking while Bobby was singing Looks Like Rain. Get chills thinking about it! p.s. I love your reference to Loser...one of my all time fav's!

Not a silly statement at all, I totally relate to what you say. I get chills walking down this memory lane! It is fun reminiscing! I also remember it being almost unbearably hot!! Everyone crowding under those fountains. That reminds me - we saw Jerry Seinfeld at one of those shows. The coolest thing about all of this - I have been in touch with some of my longtime touring friends from around the country and we are trying to reunite for some of these shows. Awesome!

And always at least 100 degrees or hotter lol! I remember the first year I got really sunburned, although I didn't feel it until I got home. But yes they were extremely hot, but when that tropical rain came in 93, it was awesome! And my little honda had an engine problem so I had to drive home with the heater on so that my engine wouldn't overheat...Good times, good people!

All life's riddles will be answered, as long as you feel the Vibe. Believe in it. Let it nurture you. Let it it flow. Let it grow. It gives you the strength, It gives you courage. Take its energy and turn it into a positive force. It will guide you to where you want to be. Forget about your trials and tribulations. I was at a Dead show in Paris 1990 at the Zenith Theatre. General admission. It is the size of a high school gym with and open floor and bleachers. I had money, a place to crash and tix to the sold out shows. But what was truly amazing was right before the show started, the French could not believe that these people traveled all the way to Paris without a ticket. So instead of turning them away, all the Dead heads outside were able to buy tickets and their was much rejoicing. True story( who says the French suck.) This the Vibe. Believe in it. Peace and Love. So the kids they dance and shake their bones. "Oh if a man tried To take his time on earth And prove before he died What one man's life could be worth I wonder what would happen To this world."

avoid ticketsnow --> they guarantee tickets but it is still a scalper site. they don't actually have tickets in hand yet and they 3-10x face value. hope it works out for daisymay but for everyone else just go for the presale, don't feed the scalper machine unless absolutely have to.....would hope there would be kind people at the shows but I have a feeling this will be a tough ticket no matter where....

Not sure, it's a big place but with one 2 So Cal shows, I would think it would sell out pretty quick. But again, I'm no expert so I guess we'll have to wait and see. I'll just be happy when I have my tix...my anxiety level is through the roof lol, I just want my tickets...can't wait!!!!

I'm not so sure. In the most recent Relix, there are interviews Phil, Bobby, Billy, and Mickey. I can't remember if it was Bobby or Phil, but one of them said that they'd likely try to do a summer tour in 2010 if the spring tour goes well. He was explicit in saying "not this summer, though." So if everyone stays healthy, they have apparently already at least talked about 2010 possibilities.

The lack of West Coast shows on the upcoming tour makes me think a two part Summer Tour is coming. I'm surprised there is only one show at MSG (although Nassau is an adjacent date). I miss living in upstate N.Y. right now, as I'm stuck in Houston with the northeast blues again. Anyway, anyone have rumors about how mail order or internet sales are going to work? Thanks! Andy
