    a peaceful lot scene is what it's about. the last tour in95 (especially deercreek) was filled with local kids not into the music just looking to get F'd up on anything and start fights. and the nitrous mafia needs to be run out of any lot...when they have head sets, guns, leather jackets, and wads of cash they aren't looking to make gas money to the next show

    Just to Clarify.....
    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.

    Spring Tour
    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!

    Hey R & C
    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 . . .

    Actually, the disrespect
    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.

The band says Happy New Year with an announcement of almost twenty shows in April and May.  More details to come!

First, let me say that no one can ever replace Jerry. Not even close, IMHO. That being said Warren is a monster. Last night was the first time I saw him play, and I think he will be great with the Dead. The Allman's even closed the second set with a kickin' jam of The Other One. Made me feel right at home. "One watch by night, one watch by day If you get confused, listen to the music play"

Nice! Hey now how do you import youtube vids like that? I tried to put one in a post in dead.net and all it did was paste the web link to youtube... Just wondering how you get the whole video like that? "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"

I think it's way cool to have green, sustainable camping at a four day event, but after looking at the VIP packages I'd have to say that the energy footprint for this festival is going to be a monster. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to lay our the $3400 for a safari tent with all the furnishings and electricity, air-conditioned bathrooms and showers and trucked in ice as well as the $118 vig for "shipping & handling" charges. I just wouldn't want anyone to think it was green, sustainable camping. Conspicuous consumption is just so retro these days, what with Feed The Children leading convoys of food into cities and all.... Wouldn't you just love to hire two white-jacketed eunuch nubians with black linen towels over their arms and say "Blend us up two more top-shelf ritas and bring us the mirror after you finish slicing & dicing. Chop-chop boys!"

This from Wikipedia: On April 4, 1996, Bob Weir and Deborah Koons spread half of Garcia's cremated ashes in the Ganges River in India, a site sacred to the Hindus. Then, according to Garcia's last wishes, the other half of his ashes were poured into the San Francisco Bay. Deborah Koons disallowed one of Garcia's ex-wives, Carolyn "Mountain Girl" Garcia, from attending the spreading of the ashes. Phil writes in Searching for the Sound that they made it under the Golden Gate to a point where the captain said the ashes would be carried out to sea. As they poured the ashes over the side of the vessel some of the ashes were blown back against the hull. Bobby leaned over with a cloth napkin and "scrubbed poor Jerry off the hull". Sometime later Phils wife Jill was weeding a garlic patch when she reached into her pocket and found the napkin Bobby had used. She offered a quick prayer and buried the napkin there in the field. May he rest in peace. We miss ya Jerry.

I was blown away the other night at the Allman Bros, Beacon Theater, NYC. I have a buddy on the inside who is always a reliable source but when he told me earlier in the week that Eric Clapton was going to show up I didn't believe. Sure enough, Clapton came out and jammed the whole second set. My bud also told me that Bobby and Phil are jamming with the Allmans closing night Mar 28. For all the lucky ones, just a little taste what what we're going to get on the tour. Always believe. If you get confused Listen to the music play "Oh if a man tried To take his time on earth And prove before he died What one man's life could be worth I wonder what would happen To this world."

Just received tickets from gdtstoo for the Charlottesville show and they are floor seats - wahoooo. Although I have not received tickets from the online pre-sale for the same show; called to check on them and MusicToday said they should be sent out seven to ten days before the show. Wow- talk about cutting it close. I have learned my lesson and will stick with gdtstoo and skip the "new" way to purchase tickets.

For presale tix? Man, what's the hurry? Make them will-call and I'll at least have some degree of confidence that we'll see them. Let's see, 7-10 days before the show I'm 900 miles away from my mailbox, and will stay that way until 3 days before Greensboro. I'm going to leave home before having tix in hand? First-in, last out. That's the way to run a business!

I'm sure we all will get our tickets in time, it's just a bit shady in my opinion and it doesn't make much sense. Unless they have to print every ticket by hand, using rare paper from deep in the rain forest, and special ink imported from the orient and then use carrier pigeons to deliver them all ... yeah yeah that's it! No wonder why its taking so long... :-) "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"
