    Jerry's been gone coming up on 20 years (in August)
    Sheesh. Twenty freakin' years. We miss you, dude. Check out the Facebook thingy with 12/30/77. That's a nice feature for the 50th. Thank goodness so much of the GD was recorded. Life would be very drab without it.

    Favorite venues.....
    ....favorite place I saw the Dead? Cal Expo. Beer stations everywhere. Favorite venue that they played, but never saw them there. Ventura Fairgrounds. Saw Phish there a couple times. Turn around and there's the ocean. Freakin' awesome. Did have some sound issues though due to the winds off the beach....

Oakland Coliseum Arena 1993 Chinese New Year Show. Corrina...I had an epic moment with many heads in a tunnel dancing in unison to the pulsating rhythm of that tune.....a great memory!

Hey All,I have an extra General Admission Field ticket for each night in SC. Face value, which I think was 199.50 or so. Waiting for my tickets so I am not 100% sure of exact dollar. PM if you want. Thanks and see you soon.

Has anyone heard anything re PPV? With FTW right around the corner, you'd think they'd want to promote it via the satellite and cable providers? Could it be Shapiro is hitting a business snag on one money-grab he can't leverage?

This doesn't hurt the scalper it only hurts the end user that made plans to drive or fly across the country before the show. The scalper will still sell his tickets. If I don't receive my Chicago tix before I leave for SC I am not sure what I am going to do.

I received the same email confirmation today from ticketmaster. My Santa Clara tickets arrived last Wednesday, five days prior to the email. More like Communication Breakdown. I feel the breeze picking up as people receive their Chicago tickets and let out a collective sigh of relief.

Did anyone else get the e-mail from MLB to create an account for the stream? Looks a little weird so wondered if anyone else got it.

I ordered the webcast just in case there would not be a ppv. No info on ppv yet but if it is going to happen I will cancel the webcast. Called Comcast couple weeks ago and the guy had no news but said check back around the 21st. That's when he said they get the new ppv schedule. I got the MLB . Com email today too. Thinking it's because I ordered the webcast. It had instructions on what to do. Grateful Dead forever!!

This ticket marketing is getting me down. What will be the next surprise announcement from the executives. I know the shows are going to be great & will be with all of you one last time BUT there will be a shadow of corporate greed over us this time. Sad we have come down to this VIP- ultra marketing.

Well I FINALLY caught they were sending my Chi-town tix via UPS as of today. I didn't get an email or tracking # upon delivery just did a random daily reference search on UPS of my order # and saw it was on the way....so you non mail order people might want to do the same. A "Heads" up :)

Tickets for the Chicago shows arrived from GDTS-TOO yesterday!! Just my SASE with regular postage. We live in Wake Forest, North Carolina (north side of Raleigh). I imagine everyone will be getting their tickets very soon. Best of luck. See you in Chicago!

UPS next day air envelope with am delivery with ticket master tix just arrived. should have just elected regular mail, but was being cautious. Anyone "connected" to the family/staging company have any word if the back and sides of the stage will be open? Quite sure it is not a 360 degree arrangement, but curious if an effort was made to add any sight lines? Some of my best shows were side and behind the stage on Jerry's side. Have had awesome views of Jerry and Brent, Jerry and Bruce, Jerry and Branford, etc. going back and forth and Jerry looking right at us when he came back to his stack for a smoke after every song.

I too am "patiently" awaiting more info on the cable TV PPV. It seems to me that this info has been very slow in coming. I have contacted my local cable Comcast branch a couple times with very little info or resolution on when I can order it. I also have contacted iNDEMAND, the source PPV company that offers the service to all cable and sat companies. They were very kind and helpful and assured me that all local branches will definitely be offering this PPV. They just could not give me an actual date. If I was trying to cash in on a PPV, I know that I would offer it in advance and would advertise; I have seen none of either.

Blessed to just be in ear shot of the sweet music but been wondering how the stage will truly go down. Shapiro did say all the speakers/screens will be directly behind the open stage. Everyone have a safe and blessed trip to both shows. Can't wait!!!

My guess about the PPV "debacle" (I have grown to like that word), is that MLB.com has the initial rights to all sales of this PPV event until a certain date has passed (so that they can bleed as many 'heads as they can before it is made available to the cable companies). More concert politics. I would even go as far as saying there is a gag order placed upon them to not discuss it with ANYONE until, let's say, a week before the first event. So approx. June 20 we should see something (if they are offering it all). Now we have yet another limbo, and more CONJECTURE (like we need more of that!) PPV LIMBO! OHHHHH YYYYEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!

I am envious of everyone getting tickets in their mail boxes. I have to wait until I get to Chicago to get mine. I have this recurring nightmare that I'll get to Chicago and the office will be like, "Good day Mr. Totem, those are fine pair of Dancing Bear Crocs your are wearing today. Umm, sorry Mr. Totem, we can't seem to find your tickets. The envelope is empty. Sorry, but we have no additional tickets available. Can we offer you a matching dancing bear lanyard and refund?" Those suckers better be locked up in a vault with guards armed with LSD super soakers!

I am hoping to help out our Dead family by providing someone with the experience of a lifetime. I have 2 tickets to each of the Santa Clara shows that I purchased through the lottery system. I am unable to go because I recently had surgery. I hope that I can be the "miracle every day" for some true fan. Please let me know if you are interested. ~peacefulkats

SiriusXM will be broadcasting the Chicago shows, just no video. www.siriusxm.com/gratefuldead We've got XM in the car and online for our computer, which has its audio output going to the stereo. This is where we'll be doing the Chicago shows. Still waiting for our secondary market Santa Clara tickets (Stubhub). Having been shutout of every other offering, those of us with secondary market purchases have to wait for tickets to be shipped and then reshipped to us! We're hoping they make it before we have to leave for Santa Clara. At least we're driving from Los Angeles and could leave in the late AM on Sat 6/27. Hoping to make a Friday departure though. See you in the 400's at Santa Clara!

Thanks to everyone offering miracles here, and tix to SC for face! So nice to see heads taking care of heads. Strange though, no one offering face value tix to Chicago? Suspicious...(I smell a conspiracy or 3)
