    uconnjhd,Panicstream is a forum for music fans that centers around Widespread Panic. However, the community has a reverent affinity for Thee Grateful Dead and many other musicians. The website was updating last night's setlist frequently and I was enjoying reading the community's comments as many were streaming the show too. During the 2nd set, the site began to update the setlist in chunks. The chunks included tracks that hadn't been played on my Youtube stream. Thought there might be a gap in the stream too, but as I checked the live Periscope feeds from Levi's Stadium it seemed Youtube was streaming close to real time. Based on their comments, the Panicstream community seemed to enjoy seeing what was upcoming. Thought this community would feel the same way. Apologize if it spoiled surprises for anyone. What a show to take in! Fare Thee Well kicked off where it all started! Truckin' hit the road on this last journey fittingly and was the newest track of the night. Uncle Johns Band and Casey Jones bookended Workingman's Dead. Thoroughly enjoyed their placement. 2nd set was steeped in Live / Dead! First 3 sides of LP showcased. What's Become of the Baby was a gem from Aoxomoxoa. Anthem of the Sun was most prominent while sun and sunset was visually present. Loved that. Granted, Cryptical Envelopment was ripe pick for cloak of nightfall's arrival. Cream Puff War jam seemed like the point the jamming began to gel and it was cooking during Viola Lee Blues. The one thing that was a bit distracting last night was the snare mix from opening through mid first set. My favorite Youtube enhanced aspect of the stream was the footage during the extended set break which showed those parade floats. What is the source of that footage? I want to see it again. That rainbow over the stadium was icing on the cake!

    Sett List Leak
    At the end of the first set, I saw on facebook a complete (and accurate) second set setlist. It was incredible to see it, but I wish I hadn'r seen it. Apparently it was posted on a Phish website and reposted to Dead 50 Facebook page

Sorry to get people hopes up that I was disappearing. I check the forum everyday but not gonna spend as much time as I was doing. I see my rants about Santa Clara and the lack of communication regarding an announcement have fallen negatively upon some folks. For that I apologize. Will try to keep the posts to a minimum (as with the complaints as well). Hoping for an announcement, but expecting nothing. I was hoping for an announcement sooner than later so that maybe the current ticket prices would drop and availability of better seats would increase. But I know now what I want is completely irrelevant...(I will have to come to terms with that)

Where there's life there's hope.... Unlikely Gans/Lambert are gonna take an hour or two to say ....well you can buy the simulcast at $30 per night or $200 for the 3 day package...but the 3 day gives MP3 downloads... Jeez I hope it's not that....but compared to the 5+'grand I have invested in 3 days of my life it's a bargain.... The best I ever had.... I miss Keith Moon too.....

If I can go to CID directly they're based here in Philly at Broad & Market in Center City Philadelphia. I live about a 1/2 hour away.

Order in. System worked like a charm. No spinning wheels, no rush (either online or to the post office), confirmation of order already in hand, and at least a chance to complete with the scalpers. Thanks to the everyone behind the scenes who took a giant step back and delivered. I'm sure there will still be issues, but all in all a much superior approach. Good luck to everyone.

NO TM so may actually be fair this time...CID still available though way out of my league for paying for a ticket (not interested in $1000 for 2 days...) but put my name in the hat for 1 ticket each day...lets see. I am cautiously optimistic. Good luck Klanger

The real question i have is: If you put yourself into the pool and you come out a winner, have you then actually bought the tickets, or do you have a choice to say no at that point?? If you can't go, then is it a serious hassle to sell the tickets even for cost?

I have not gotten a Chicago rejection letter yet, nor have I gotten a confirmation e-mail. At this point all I care about is that my original letter requesting tickets did not get lost in the mail. Are there others of you still waiting...one way or another? Sorry if this has been covered recently...

Just realized I have hotel rooms at both venues but no tickets! WTF, FTW! Well, I think it will work out fine. I'll only be going to Santa Clara if I get tix though. Chicago I'm in with the rest of the Daydreamers regardless.

Bob, I had a CID package in the cart and had the same question. If it was an east coast show, I'd have pulled the trigger. Glad some on us can do both sets of dates! If I change my mind, check PMs for me politely asking for floor space. See you in Chicago with the SSDDers! (and Buzz)

The cost for an obstructed view 2 day pass just dropped to around $800...oh well I would prefer SFO I think over ORD I think, closer to home and if I am coming to the US, SFO is on the list of places I would like to visit...been to ORD.

...Klang is off the complaint bus. On the side of the road, contemplating getting back on the 'dreamer bus. Hopefully Dire Wolf won't murder me and rrrggrrr won't leave my dead ass by the side of the road. NO more rants about Santa Clara or not having a ticket. The boys are doing their best to deter the scalpers, this is great news. Can't ask anymore from them. It took awhile but we got our announcement. All is good and right in the GD world. I have a ticket for Friday and a possible ticket for Saturday. Thanks for the Friday miracle, you know who you are! Happy Friday all!

He's leasing out 1 square foot sections to scalpers at $100 per hour so they can pitch their tickets to passers-by and the mailman when he delivers his t-shirt.
