Grateful Dead

I was unable to get my order filled for the MSG show and I received my returned mail order yesterday (2/17/09). My suspicion is that the filled orders will get mailed shortly. While I believe my orders will be filled for the other shows I am hoping to attend, it would be nice to have my tickets and know for sure.

I believe the vibes were felt - thanks for the gorge & thanks for 44 years..................................see ya there :-)

There is a link on GDTSTOO to sign up for information updates: http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/GDTSTOO/Following is a portion of an update that I received on 2/13 and was also previously posted in this thread: We are processing the last of the Philadelphia orders this week & next as well as MSG. The first Shoreline is the next out of the door. The remaining shows will be processed in 3-6 weeks. Credit cards will also be processed this week & next. Please try to hold your phone calls and emails as we are busy bees filling ticket orders. I will admit that mail order is slow. However, back in what my step-kids / grandkids refer to as "The Day" we had the east coast and west coast hot lines - this was before the incredible age of the internet when some of us were still ( and still are ) listening to vinyl. The folks at GDTSTOO are good people that have always worked hard to take care of us and deserve credit for all they do. After all there are far more fans wanting tix than there are peeps in their office. Try and take a deep breath and ...... smile, smile. smile there will after all be music to fill the air! Peaceful Journey to You All...... Saint Stephen with a rose. In and out of the garden he goes. Country garland in the wind and the rain. Wherever he goes the people all complain.... Shine On! Saint Stephen

try the Ride Board topic in the forums.

You know if you sign up for GDTSTOO email alerts, you can stay pretty informed. Try that before you lash out at them. Just a thought. "All we need is music, sweet music. There'll be music everywhere. There'll be laughing, singing, music swinging. Dancin in the street"

That's the only reason I got Sirius lol! It's great, all day and they play some rare gems. I love it! Can't say enough...well I"d love to hear more interviews maybe, but other than that I love it.~Tam

southerntam-you sold me,sweetie! Im gettin' that for sure! I dont think it's unreasonable to pay 12 bucks a month to hear DEAD music every time I put on my radio!☆☆☆♪♪♪"If nautical nonsense is something you wish-Then drop on the deck and flop like a fish"♪♪♪☆☆☆

I know it's hard to wait for mail order in the day of instant online ticket sales, and I know I'd be bummed to get my moneyorder back instead of a pair of tickets, but I was lucky enough to get two sweet seats in the mail yesterday and I hope the same goes for many of you! My buddy got our Spectrum tickets last week, so I presume that most people will be getting theirs in the next day or two (we're in PA and NJ). We're still waiting to hear on the other four MSG tickets for our group, so we're not exhaling just yet! It's gonna be a sweet run ;) As for the Dead radio, check out Jerryradio.com for a rotating selection of full shows. The Sirius/XM GD station is pretty siiiiick though... Good Times

May you have happy twirling at the MSG!! As for the Radio, why can't you just download a few FLAC files and be content? You can even make "personal" playlists too....it's amazing what you can do with even Itunes now! I remember sticking my cassettes (and I'm sure other heads would have said, pstttt 8 tracks) into the cassette player, only to hear kick arse music. I think letting someone else control your tunes is bs....not to mention it's not even the "whole" show/experience! Just putting my 1 and a 1/2 sense in! ____________________________________________________ Will you come with me? Once in awhile you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right!

I have no idea what a FLAC file is(im probably the only one) Its all greek to me! someone like me is better off just getting satalite radio-plus I dont think of it as someone else controlling my tunes-I look at it like-cool,cant wait to see what they play next!!! Know what I mean-Jelly bean?:-)♪♪☆☆peace

I have it and love it. Listen all the time, nothing wrong with a little suprise of whats going to play next, it is the grateful dead channel, kinda hard to go wrong there.They play some good concerts, some you cant get on the net. You get interviews on sat. morning, tales from the golden road with david gans on sunday, you get today in grateful dead history everyday with David Lemieux, you can call in and host your own setlist, theres guest dj's (Jackie Greene was a recent one) They did a day where they celebrated Dark Star and played various versions of the song from the deads entire career, They celebrated jerry's birthday, Now their doing a thing on welnick and hornsby. Nothing wrong with the dead channel at all if a person chooses to pay for it, i havent listened to the regular radio in years. Plus your not just getting the dead channel your gettting a variety of stuff.

I always was a fan of David Gans (Dead Hour) especially with the interviews! Alright, maybe it couldn't be all that bad....~Peace~____________________________________________________ Will you come with me?

Which hotel are all the out of towners staying at ? Suggestions? I'd like to be close to the venue ! Please PM with info... Much Love

Can *uck my B****

Robbie and Cassidy: FLAC files (free lossless audio codecs) are available from many sights. Don't need to speak geek, key word here is free. Its just a good way to compress large audio files (entire shows) to make them easy to download. This is in keeping with the bands policy of taping and trading over the years. Its quite simple to do and if you are interested I can hook you up with everything you need, all free. I have nothing against Sirius per say as they are offering you other stations for your $12.00 a month or whatever it is. If they were only giving you live Dead and charging for it, I would be one of the first to get up in thier face. Keep the music free!

TicketMaster posted (in the last day or so) new tickets for sale for the Pepsi Center in Denver. It looks like the "Club Level" seats in the 200's section are now available for purchase. These are great seats and are between the lower level and the upper level. Just picked up 3!

I was wondering if anyone has received their mail order tix for this tour. I mail ordered for the 1st Shoreline show, now it's sold out and I still have heard/received nothing in tearms of mail order tix's.

I got my MSG tickets in the mail, good seats section 103. I had faith in the mail order and it came through. Going to Nassau Coliseum on Fri and MSG on Sat.

I dont know if you got my PM but Im pretty sure I cant do all that with just a WII system and a wireless router(can i?)--G

No MSG tix for us. First time since I started mail ordering in 90 that I was denied. OK, now I gotta get resourceful!! I can Tell the Queen of Diamonds by the way she shines!

Has anyone received any mail order tix for the Albany venue yet?.....patiently...anxiously...waiting!

Just bought a lawn ticket, with fees it came to $64! Will be hiking and hot springing my way there, should be fun. might as well might as well

Anyone get their stubs for Wilkes-Barre yet?? GDTS TOO said in an e-mail on Feb. 2 that in 2-3 weeks the envelopes would be opened and the tix given out. I may be going to hell in a bucket But at least I'm enjoyin' the ride.

I've been so busy lately, with two jobs, car breaking down, I don't even have time to take a phat d*mp! Seriously though, I'm glad to see others are on the ball by explaining this to the kind people with questions! May the grass always be greener and the wine always be sweeter! ____________________________________________________ Will you come with me?

Really looking forward to two April shows in Worcester. It's not the happiest of times in the universe, so those concerts on my horizon help me to Keep on Truckin On! Crickets and cicadas sing, a rare and different tune, Terrapin Station.

Don't know about the rest of the country, but the sky in New England is amazing tonight. Crisp, clear, stars, planets, the spiral light of venus rising first and shining best . . . Crickets and cicadas sing, a rare and different tune, Terrapin Station.

Check out the Dead.net main page SYF. Then click on the planet that looks like Saturn, a pop up appears and the road to terrapin comes up. This is getting weirder!!! And I like it!!!

I scored 20th row for the Gorge!!ABB & The Dead what a sweet evening it shall be........ Hope to see you there>>>>>>>>>> I MISS you Jerry!

Let the freakiness ensue! "When the smoke has cleared she said, that's what she said to me. You're gonna want a bed to lay your head and a little sympathy"

Yeah Rosa/Jack--Im diggin' your positive vibes about the Spring shows--Think about it-The snow will melt away,The birds will begin to sing,The flowers-Trees and Feilds will begin to bloom and fill with beautiful colors and smells-The parking lots will fill with Happy people and kind veggie burrito's-People in little towns will say-"oh look Martha,there's those hairy people with the colorful t-shirts again."Let the Freakiness ensue, indeed!!!♪♪♪♪"People can you feel it-The song is in the air-Love is everywhere!!!"♪♪♪♪

Hey yeah thats pretty cool-Wonder what Hartford 77 and stay tuned/coming soon means?Did you notice its supposed to be like your inside a vehicle(you can see the wiper)and the terrapin turtle dude is thumbin'? Would you pick him up? I dont he looks kinda sketchy(probably has some good buds-though)HAHAHA!!!!♪♪♪"You know its gonna get stranger......"♪♪♪

I think I have a pretty good idea what they have up their sleeves, but I hate to spoil a surprise, especially one with such good artwork. Clues and metaphors abound. If I'm right, we're likely to see That Old Debate arise again (seems like the last incarnation had just finally quieted down) and I was wondering if they were going to do anything with what was my first show. I wonder what else might be in the mix? Perhaps some tasty morsels from someplace Far Above Cayuga's Waters? Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

the weird turn pro!!!!

I just got a ticket for Clapton/Winwood ($96.40 for the nose bleeds) 6/21 in Denver - now all I need is one more night @ Shoreline or the Gorge! Got a feelin' it's gonna be a good year for shows! I do believe we need to get our freak flags out and wave the real real high!!! Lady finger, dipped in moonlight Writing "What for?" across the morning sky Sunlight splatters dawn with answers Darkness shrugs and bids the day goodbye Peaceful Journey To You All Saint Stephen

Does anyone know the deal with camping for the gorge show out there? Do you have to purchase a seperate ticket ahead of time, or just show up there and camp. My previous experience was buying a seperate camping ticket. I didn't see anywhere on the ticket sites any info on this. Anyone have info on this?

Thanks to the guys for putting aside whatever small diferences that people may have to keep the vibe going. Sometimes a greater whole is bigger than any one part but without those parts you can't make a whole. May you keep on rockin' a in a free world and may the Forewinds Blow you Safetly Home

http://www.livenation.com/venue/the-gorge-amphitheatre-details Here is a link to the camping section, there is a number you can call on the link!!!

Have 4 tix together, sec. 317. Looking for what I paid (incl. TicketSheisters Vig). Double ordered and got bit in the a__. $450.00, cash only. Can hand deliver in Long Island NY area. Thx, Max.

Sorry, I can be reached at syf1961@yahoo.com. Thx Max.

We just realized this concert is on easter so we will be unable to attend..I have 2 tickets in section 234....just wanna get face value back. if anyone interested giarc8371@yahoo.com is how i can be reached

wow, 200 pages, we should be proud.

MARYE-You seem to be very wise and intelligent....Could you please tell me why "FAT CHANCE" and "SLIM CHANCE" mean the same thing?

You don't have to buy camping ticket ahead of time. Buy camping supplies before you get too close. It is at least $40 and a hardly any facilities other than porta-pottys, but there are acres and acres of desert. Welcome to the other side of Washington.They haven't planted any trees, summer can be hot and windy with no shade but the venue is sweet. Carved into cliffside above the Columbia River Gorge. .You can tell musicians love playing there-One More Saturday NIght.

take a crack at that one too RobbienCassidy? Think it might be fun to try to logic that out. The word chance=something like luck and/or opportunity, if I understand it correctly. SOOO that could mean that the wider (fat) your range of opportunitly/luck is, is not as likely you will be lucky for one particular thing, when are more variables involved. And also goes for a smaller range (slim) chance-cuz would mean have less chances to be lucky as well. Am indeed in suspense what wise Marye would say, cuz may well be total crap what I just said. ********************************** It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

Gorge is hot in the Summer... May 16 should get very cool at night, bring sunscreen as no shade, but hey, we'll be at the amphitheater all afternoon, so bring sunscreen for the show!! Also recommend a polar fleece, sweater, or blanket, something for night. Even a rain pancho might be good to have. Even with all those bodies, all that dancin', and any mind altering stimuli, it might get chilly!!

phil lesh on lil bush? how did i miss this?http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4427480705023931062&ei=ZBSiSd-…
