    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.

for 2 people to want to see 5 shows, at 119.00 a ticket (with the added fees) roughly adds up to 1,190.00. thats just the ticket price. the grateful dead has always said we, the dead heads, are the ones who made it happen. we are the reason they came and made musicfor us night after night...that with out us, it could not have been done. well, the way i see it, if the band does not step up and do something, anything, about the way ticket master rapes us on prices, it's going to be us who, sadly makes it not happen. i hope every single last scalper out there gets cancer. good luck everyone, have a great show where ever you may be goin

It was getting close to new years 1989, I was so excited my very first paid vacation was comming , so I got my airline ticket from Philly to L.A. with conecting flights to S.F. , GDTS has always been great to me , except this time .. My money order i sent in was .25 cents too much , well guise what , that was enough for GDTS to send it back to me .. .25 cents too much !! they could have just kept the quarter !! I`m not going to stress over 25 cents ..Anyway ,,I made it to S.F. , was shopping at one of the local piers in an art studio I met this guy who`s freinds broke down just west of Denver , this guy had all their ticketts ..being short on cash his freinds would not be making it to Oakland , $375.00 later I had my New Years ticket ..

I've seen that phish isn't letting people onto the lots until 2 hours before the doors open--i am thinking they are trying to stop a shakedown from forming. Hopefully the dead don't do the same. Anyone heard anything? On a side note i also saw that phish is charging 49.50 for all tix--not that i'd pay to see them

I stopped going to Grateful Dead concerts in '84 - so the lot scene wasn't all that big of a deal yet. It wasn't until '01 when I went to a Phil Lesh show in Burlington, VT that I got a taste of that experience. It was November, so it was cold outside. Even so, a few hundred folks were milling around in the parking lot near Memorial Auditorium, some of them selling stuff, others buying and even more just hanging out. though In '04, I caught The Dead at SPAC and the lot scene was a very big deal. The thing I thought was kind of sad about it all was that so many of the folks there neither had tickets nor had any real inclination to go to the show. They were just there to party with the folks who were going to the show (or just with other hangers on). I was always used to big crowds outside shows back when I caught the Grateful Dead between '76-'84, even when they played small theaters. The deal was that folks were trying to score tickets, not a buzz and a burrito. I guess it's all cool, but I always figured that the music made the scene, but that the scene wasn't an end unto itself. "When it comes to humility, I'm the greatest!" - Bullwinkle Moose

The parking lot at the penn show was pretty laid back, we arrived about 3 hours before the show, and i think we paid about 10 bux to park in the lot. We just wondered around the lot for a while, got a few veggy burritos, talked to other heads, drank a few beers, smoked alittle, the usuall lot scene. Now, after the show, campus police really didn't make anyone leave till about 3 hours after the show. As far as the security goes it was pretty laid back. Shakedown St. was deffinately going on for a good 3 hours after the show. I hope the philly shows are the same way!Phatmoye As for phish, save ur money, and see the DEAD!!!!!

greetings, i say phish can stand on their own. they're entirely different form the dead. i have had the pleasure of seeing both many times an well as all the spinoffs and i see no similarity. i would say it is possible to enjoy them all as they're all doing their own thing. i really enjoy hearing the familiar songs played with a twist never knowing what to expect. wonderful world beautiful people earthman I'd save the world but I'm short on cash

Hey does anyone know anybody who's going to Ratdog in Jamaica? I think it's tomorrow. Man that would be so chill. Jamaica is so much fun, it would be great hanging with some dreads listening to Bobby on the beach of Jamaica smokin and drinkin Appleton rum. Damn that would be fun!

As long as you respect other people and their property,I say "come one-come all!!!"Do you honestly think JERRY wanted to tell people how to act and what to do??GET REAL!! There is ALWAYS gonna be some assholes showing up who dont know how to act+some wimpy little note is'nt going to change that(sorry PHIL but its true)So just worry about the music-PHIL.The parking lot is not your concearn(NO disrespect intended)♪♪"Never had such a good time-in my life before-bound to have it one time more!!"♪♪

Actually, the disrespect shown by some patrons,gate crashing, blatant public displays of illegal drug use, among other things threatened the ability of the band to continue touring and broke Jerry's heart.

If you want to suck down industrial nitrous from gun-toting people who ain't there for the show, that is your business. I think PKP has a good point, but telling people not to come who don't have a ticket is ridiculous. The best shows I ever went to were one's that were free. They had a point for everything they wrote though, the best of which, to me, was;Deadheads, leave no tracks! (That means pick up your own garbage, in case you were wondering) How about this for a quote, R & C: "Took his rings, four bucks and change. Ain't that heaven sent?" Oh, that's right, you respect PROPERTY and p e o p l e . . .

My excitement about the Spring Tour and a potential four night run in NJ and Philly was quickly tempered by the ticket fiasco. First the absurd pricing left me chilled - taking my son on a four night run just became prohibitive considering I'd be coming from KY. No big deal I thought we'll make the Chicago show. Not to be given the server freeze up when tickets went on sale and when i finally made it through there were no tickets left unless i wanted to buy from Ticket Exchange at three to five time face value. The final blow came this past weekend when Ticketmaster sale started and within 2 minutes I was in, only to be told 2 tickets were not available - of course there were a multitude of tickets available from scalpers - something is really wrong here. Instead of a road trip with my son, I'll be looking for taper copies on-line. It feels like the Band left their fans hanging with this show and are more concerned about reaping financial rewards - more power to them and I am saddened for another generation will not experience the Dead - it marks the passing of another era!

Thanks for listening to my little rant.....just want to clarify that when I say "do what you want" I of course assume we are talking about peaceful fun....i.e. not gate crashing. I was at Deer Creek in '95 and that was a bogus scene....but I think those were kids and idiots....I doubt that that will happpen on this tour. HAVE FUN...YEAAHHHH! Thank you.
