    I dont think there will be any Summer Tour dates as The Dead..Due to the RD summer tour and the AB summer tour..Unless they can Clone Jeff,Bobby and Warren and they can be 2 places at once! Hey,There's an idea(LOL) But judging from the amount of fun and how AWESOME this band sounds,I wouldn't rule out a fall tour and beyond..I think they're gonna ride it till the wheels fall off....And they should!!! :-) On a side note...I was wondering if anyone is familiar with a poster I seen many years ago that has License plates on it from all 50 states,All with some kind of Dead related vanity on it, ie: DRK-STR and at the top it just says "WE ARE EVERYWHERE" Please PM me if anyone has seen this or knows how to get it...Thank-You,My brothers and My sisters...peace, G :-)

    Summer Tour???
    Hey all. I've gotta miss this spring tour (though the boys are playing tonite right by my house). I took a gamble and decided not to see the indoor shows this spring. Haven't been to a show since Jerry's last one in 95. Anyone hear of any summer dates? I'm tempted to check out Rothbury in July but I was REALLY hoping for a summer outdoor show at Alpine Valley. I'm LOVING the setlists and the sound of the band this spring! This 'ol deadhead is on pins and needles!

    Man, I can't begin to explain the positive and loving vibes in the lot as well as the show:) It reminded me of one of the last shows I caught in 1994 at Buckeye Lake. The boys are playing quite well together and the energy is amazing!!! Seeing how I embarked on a spiritual adventure the night before, I toned it down and sisnt eat so much "enhancers" the 2nd night:) Both set lists the 2nd night was spectacular. I got to hear my MORNING DEW for the first time on this tour:) And I think 90% of the crowd new that SAMSON & DELILAH was gonna be the encore, and it was an excellent encore:) Thank you all!!! Dead.net friends, Thank you all (GIgi, Snodgrass, Techgurl,Rooster, Chuck...and all the rest) Thank you guys!!! You are my true FAMILY and I can't wait to see you all again at another show!!!:)Peace- Moye

    Crazy idea..
    I just had a funny thought.... The Dead are not allowed to play at Hampton, so they sneak in on an April Fools Day as the Grateful Dead!!!

I'm thrilled and excited about the Gorge Concert, but had so hoped that there would be at least a two nights of music... Most folks travel from afar, set up tents, enjoy the campgorund vibe, go a day or two without a shower, share their food, beer and tokes with fellow concert attendees... so a two or three day event would have me there in a heartbeat!! It's a long way to go for a one night stand...

Lets hope that theses bands can clear their schedule and join us on the bus. Now that would be a show to see, we all have our fav. bands to see with the boys but the Allmans and Doobies (of all kinds) would be historic.

In case anyone noticed or cared-I have not been online in like a month, I have internet through the wii system and all of a sudden it stopped working! We could'nt figure out why-Then it turns out we needed a router to get a wireless connection(apparently we were getting internet through someone elses signal)OOPS! told you I was a rookie! Anyway-For what it's worth,I missed talking to all my fellow DEADHEADS! I bought a router and now have my very own internet connection!! Look forward to hearing from you guys-GARCIALATER-G ♪♪"Arrows of neon flashing like keys out on main street"♪♪

Mail Order Tickets received today for MSG. Good Karma, as I was on top of pre-sale and ticketmaster sale and was shut down both times. I'll be there from Florida making 5 decades of seeing the boys live. Wish all good Karma.

Got my Spectrum tickets. Now I just have to wait and see if I lucked out with the "cheap" MSG tickets. The Deadheads gather at the rim of the volcano to dance and sing joyful songs in honor of their fallen hero.

I can't wait for the Gorge show..That is my favorite venue and I have talked to some friends around the country that are thinking of coming out here to go to the show..The set up is amazing and it allows camping so you don't have to drive after the show..I may be selling my Shoreline tickets now since I won't need to pay for air fare and 3 nights hotel

I've heard of this infamous venue. I would love to go, if I can get the time off of my two jobs, golf pro/restaurant, but as in the past....do I really care? NO, so talk me into it. How good is this going to be? Are "the boyz" really worth it (you know I'm smiling ear-to-shining-ear) to go to this show???????????____________________________________________________ Will you come with me?

Robbie - Go to your Inbox. Then to write a PM, on the top of the page you click the "compose" button. You need to know the person's dead.net username to send a PM. Either that or click on a person's username in a post and it will bring you to the PM page with their username already populated in the "To" field. To respond to a PM just click on the message, then hit the "Reply" button, then it's just like email. Write your PM then hit the "Send private message" button. Hope that helps.

for four tickets at the Gorge. YAHOO! And a friend who posts here at times got 3. So we now have a group of 7 from the Spokane area and beyond who will hang together. Also at least 3 others have told me they are getting tickets ASAP. So 10 +; we are all getting lawn tickets so we can hang together.

So, as tempted as I was to go for the reserved seating for this show, especially after seeing Bill Kreutzmann the other night so close, I opted for the lawn. (first time back on lawn since 92 Deer Creek) I just had too many other friends that are going to meet out here, that I wanted to be with family for this show. Either way, I am stoked. Haven't felt this good about seeing the band back together in years, more so than even the Alpine 2002 shows.I also feel a sense of togetherness with the band this time around that they have worked out their own differences that the music should gel together much more easily. I'm thinking these shows could be the best performances in 20 years. If you can make this one, especially if you've never been out there, you should make it if you can. See you there.

I tried to fax this morning using a free faxzero this morning at 9am pacific time and since it's a service I didn't know if it went through and had to go to work. So I get home from my split shift and bammo, they denied it after 5 times that it was busy. BUMMER!!!! Don't you hate the fact that they took off the fax program in Windows? They had this very easy to use program in every windows prior to Vista! So I'm in total high hopes and crossed fingers that I when I had my mom send it from work about 10 mins ago it will get to my brother's and sisters at GDTSTOO! I know it faxed, but I'm just hoping there are tickets left for the may 4th show at Chicago. I might be able to whip up some more cash later and order Shoreline tix, if they are not sold out by tommorow. I so hope that it wasn't too late!!!!!! I am such a fan of this band that's it's not funny. CROSSING FINGERS! Please lord! ____________________________________________________ Will you come with me?

does anybody know the status of spring tour mailorder? has anyone received their tickets? does anyone else think the whole thing was run a tad poorly and the lack of communication is hindering your making proper plans? any info or thoughts would be quite helpful. thanks and have a great day.

still waiting for any word on mine as well for MSG. Pretty ridiculous how long it has taken...missed all other opp's to get tickets because had faith in going old school. The lack of info coming from GTSTOO has been disappointing at best. Still holding out that they'll come in soon and i'll get to see the boys at MSG. Would love to hear if anyone has ANY info as to the mailorder tickets.
