    Thanks- so probably a bounce back instead of more released (not saying there was ever a statement about more being released).

    Happy to hear more good news!
    What batch email number where you, GOtime? I hear you Graceful Dead when I read that, I feared mine was stuck under an area rug, wish I could Frankie and ask her to double check!

    One more day ...
    ..I find myself alive after a visit for the mail carrier. My worst fear: many trays of envelopes were left in the son's bedroom at GDTSTOO to be processed "later". My fondest hope: Well, you know. PS to "Itsgotime", I hope you can appreciate what a thrill your news gave me.

    Great story, love it when things happen like that, a little gift...Glad you are still keeping the faith. I am kicking myself for not picking up the phone and trying one of the more antiquated ways. We debated on waking up our 13 year old daughter to help us on her phone but she is just not at her best when she is woken up on a sat. am. She probably would have thought of the phone option as well, glad your daughter was thinking. I would be happy too to have any seat because I love the breezy hallways and it looks like there might be some decent ones there. Enjoy!

    Simple twist of fate
    OK, SO... I almost feel guilty about posting this but .... Have to share some joy!!Although I am still in limbo on my mail-order, I have been fortunate enough to score 2 TM tix belatedly for Friday night! My daughter got through on her phone to the automated phone line on ticketmaster whilst I was staring at the hypnotic spinning wheel afraid to refresh. I told the robot all my information, spelled it all, repeated it all because my last name is long & stuff, then I read off the credit card info and I screwed up on the security ode as I was looking at my BF's credit card that I was unfamiliar with and said "oh wait , No! , it's - - -". Then the robot paused and told me it was sorry it could not process my card at the time and had to release my tickets. Oh My Goodness, was I ever mad at myself! Fast forward to Tuesday night, the BF shows up at my dtr's band concert and & says that his credit card was charged $440.00, long story somewhat shorter, 2 days later I find out I have the two seats it said it released!!!!! WHAAAAAT!!!!!! Utter JOY!!!!!!! SO GRATEFUL, and they are in the backest most corneriest corner of the stadium and jimmy crack corn & I don't care because I will likely be spinnin in an entrance tunnel thingy majig :-)somewhere Now my latest reflections on mail order...if Art didn't matter, they should've said decorated envelopes are "entertaining" not "appreciated" & I started getting kicked to the operator finally on my MO, and the lady I talked to dutifully asked me if I had started an inquiry or whatever they call it, and I said no & when she said that she validated my MO, and I was like "so it's still in the system then?' she said "Yes, Ma'am, it will remain in the system until it is c...dead silence" like she cut herself off at the last moment from saying cashed. Then said something else that didn't tell me anything at all and we hung up So, I believe mine are not cashed. I still gotta have a little hope though after what happened with TM. I am grateful to go to one show for sure, but would love to go to all!

    Kind of funny Jimmy Cliff is playing for the Garcia tribute
    If Jimmy doesn't sing waiting in Limbo for the Garcia tribute at Merriweather I would be surprised. Thank you Marye for setting this up! Does anyone know if there is a deadline for trying to get a refund on Mail Orders? I haven't wanted to look because then I would have to admit I am beginning to give up hope. Mailed mine in at 4:55 on the 20th, hand stamped by the postal worker that even though he was nice, for some reason I was worried I got him instead of the other one. He kept looking at me kind of funny, know that sounds completely paranoid... Hopefully they GDTS TOO will let us know when they are finished with emails and MO's. Good luck everyone!

sorry for the repost, but i am curious about this. i still have not heard an official word from GDTSTOO. my mo's have been cashed. i went to the post office and filled out a form to see who cashed the money orders. anyone still in this boat or am i floating alone?

exact same situation. i have my copies of my cashed MOs but cannot get confirmation from GDTSTOO that I'll get tix. Elvis @ GDTSTOO said I'm not on the reject or "winner" lists. It will take a few more days to conform...but I've heard that 3 times now. hard to stay patient. I "assume" i have tix, and you probably do, too, but really need the confirmation.GDTSTOO cashed my tickets.

thanks for the reply. i have gotten the same response from elvis- not on the winners list or rejection list. i know i am not on the rejection list because my MO's have been cashed. i am either on the winner's list or stolen list. i am stilling holding tight and being patient. i went to the post office on monday and filled out a 6401 form, so i guess i will find out sooner than later who cashed those MO's. i will keep you posted on my situation @mkav. i am rooting for us!

I am still in limbo. MOs were cashed but no confirmation email. Elvis said I should be good to go and that they just lost me in the database shuffle. Sure would be nice to get a confirmation and info as to what tickets I 'might' get. Are there others out there waiting (hoping) like me?

hey now. i was in limbo land for a very long time. i was lost in the data base as well, but elvis found me and sent me a confirmation email about two weeks ago. i was in communication with him for a while. all of my correspondence to him were respectful, patient, kind worded, mellow, and reasonable. he always got back to me and he, in turn, was respectful, patient, kind worded, mellow, and reasonable. he really tried hard to help me out. i think if you keep corresponding with him, in a reasonable manner, he will find you in the data base and get back to you. those folks at gdtstoo had a big job and i thought they did a good job and made the best out of a very difficult and trying situation. my hat is off to them. also, if you sent gdtstoo a postal money order you can file a PS form 6401 with your post office. it cost $6.10. i did this for ONE of my six money orders. i received a scanned copy of the money order. on the back of the money order, it showed the offical GDTSTOO stamp on the endorsement line. this gave me a piece of mind and i would recommend doing it if you are worried that they were stolen. good luck to you! i am sure you got tickets. from on limbo lander to another, i am pulling for you. see you in chi!

I had similar experience as HeadyB. By all means, trace at least one of the MOs to be sure GDTSTOO cashed them. I emigrated from limbo land to the promised land when Elvis was finally able to confirm my tickets, but I was 99% of the way there when I saw that GDTSTOO cashed my emails. I emailed Elvis my MO #s...almost immediately after that, he confirmed my tix. It may have been mere coincidence on that part, though. Good luck. If GDTSTOO cashed your MOS, you should be good.

You were right. After waiting patiently, Elvis sent me my congratulatory email last night. See y'all in Chicago. Now for those California tickets.

that is some good news thornwave! enjoy the shows and see you there. i found santa clara to be a very easy ticket. there seem to be way more extras floating around. i was able to find two for each night, face value- worse seats (also the cheapest- which is nice) in the house, but we are in! good luck to any other limbolanders!

There is limited availability of 12 and 20 person Sky Suites for the Chicago Fare The Well shows. They are obstructed view but there will be big screens showing the band. The tickets are $200 and you must buy the whole suite. I don't know which dates are available but if you can round up enough buddies to do this it will at least get you in. You can contact them at suites@soldierfield.net and ask for information. Hope this helps!

HeIlo all....

I am searching for Bobby and Billy NYE Kauai tickets they sold out today. Do you have any idea where I might locate these on a ticket forum in the Dead community? I am really looking hard as I want to gift a ticket to my beloved for Christmas. Any help would be much appreciated. 2 tickets would be ideal but 1 would be just fine as well. Thanks for any leads!
