    SYF legal help
    Is it legal to use the SYF image in a sculpture? I made a cast aluminum wall hanging last week for myself (something I have wanted for a long time) and was wondering how legal it is to sell these things on lot? What if any are the copyright laws with the SYF logo? My piece is a original sculpture made by me molded by me and cast in alum. by me. I posted a photo of it on the fan photos page under fan art.

    last straw!!
    i am so pissed. who ever runs that dead.net site is wacked in the head. my 3rd disk dont play, and supervisor at 877-dead.net she told me i got to REBUY it. i paid good hard cash for my show CD at the show. and was told, i had to repay to get my disc. this is after losing me to a phone line that cuts me off. (22 minutes, 3rd call, it cuts me off, i had to call back a 4th time) well, why do i need to REBUY a broken item i BOUGHT already!?? i was told i could "hear" the show 15 minutes after the show, i am still waiting, 5 days later. the phonelines didnt work all weekend, then, i get "we dont handle Concert CD's here, you have TO REBUY it, so we can download it in your puter!!" well, thats all good'n fine, but i bought a CD, not a download!! and the only contact number on the CD is dead.net, if you contact them, as it is stated on package, and they dont handle the CD's sold at show time, how to i get this 3rd disc replaced without spending more then the show ticket? i have never felt so used and dirty dealing with a grateful dead vendor, as i did with dead.net. and i still didnt get an answer. i was told by manegment, that they will take a report, and take it to upper management, and i will get a call back within 3 to 5 days! thats over a WEEK AFTER THE SHOW, and bad CD. do you wait a week, to get the steak replaced that was over cooked in a restaurant? well, why should i wait aweek, to talk to manegment about a CD i bought, that just displays "read error" no 3rd CD, only 1st song after drums, no last half of set, no encore. i spent a lot of this same time frame of the show in RockMed, now i missed the show 2x. after all this negitive Karma with dead.net, i dont feel i will even listen to the show, can i sell my flawed faulty CD back to the dead please?

    reasoning
    on a lighter note, when rockmed people asked if i know why my wife got this bad, i told them she was too sick for raise the flag tour, now once again, she was sick, but we felt she was well enough, but we guessed wrong as it seams. then i told him it was the bands fault, if they did shoreline 2 times a year, 2 or 3 nights in a row, i could of taken her when she was feeling better. this 3 shows in 13 years at shoreline just isnt enough. we just had to go, we never know when they tour together again, like all outdoor venues, rain or shine, the show must go on. tix was bought, with no foreseen time of a return, we risked it. in truth, it was worth it, a bit scarry there, on the encore, i couldnt fight the crowd on the lawn, to try to find her, and if i left in the encore, i would of had to leave her alone, in a panic. i had to wait for lights to come on, to get help for her, without leaving her side. RockMed is the best. i wont get a lawn t9icket again, if they return, i like lawn at shoreline, but the wife is too ill. i sit in lines for hours'n hours, to get tix the day they come out, (now it is prebuy online, as a fanclub member, same thing) but the dead, shoreline, the lawn is where it is at, you cant dance in the seats. i miss the old cal-expo shows, with the open area in front of stage and the seating in the back. i always felt that the dance floor should be in front.

    The Wristband CD
    this was a great surprise, to find i could get the show, clearer, and better quality recording, then the old taper recordings i use to hunt down. i too had my wife taken away in an ambulance, at shoreline 5-14-09. it was asthma related, but my wife lost half a lung about 5 months ago to pneumonia, and has a tumor low on her back pushing into her spinal cord, and cuts off leg movement sometimes. the attack ,the crowds, and all got too her we figure. RockMed are the best. they was right there, on the ball, and got my wife off the lawn at shoreline, with my wife in a wheel chair, had an O2 tank ready for her not 2 minutes after reporting my wifes position on the lawn Thank You RockMed. now the question. the wristband CD had 3 discs, my disc three wont play any track after the 1st track on my car CD player. in my home CD player, a bit better quality wont play track 3-5-6 it shows "read error" the way it is, i only really get to listen to my car CD player. so i only get 1st track on 3rd disc!! i lose all but 1 song after drums/space. this disc is the same time frame my wife was having problems. i spent most of the last part of concert calming her down, and hunting down RockMed, and sitting in RockMed office with my wife. i dont want to lose last half of 2nd set again. who do i contact about this? you can ask RockMed at shoreline, the got a full report from me and wife there on file.

Sometimes people post a series of photos and I notice if I comment on one of them it removes it from the series and takes it to the top of the latest post list, disrupting the original series. Is there a way that the person posting the series can note on page that it is part of a series of say, five and a way that the viewer can easily look at the series?Also, someone here in one of the forums mentioned some topics being buried beneath other topics. Is there a list of all forums? Perhaps I am just missing some obvious accessibility but there are certain forums that haven't been posted in, in awhile and I would like to go back and read. For example I am always looking for a good book to read and if I dig around I could probably find that book forum but I would love a big old list. Peace & Music from old Docks here, on dialup, in more ways than one. Again, Peace

If users who upload photos that are a sequence would include a sequence number in the subject line it might make it easier for other users to follow that sequence, especially if the upload user's identity would return to the fan photo page layout (hint, hint.) If you go to a user's page all their uploaded photos can be found there. Regarding the forums, if you look at the top of left side of any page you should see a nav section titled "table of contents." The sixth major item from the top is the doorway to all forum topics regardless of how recently anyone has posted in them. It will take a little poking around to figure out where everything is as there are many nooks and crannies holding the melted content. Sorry, couldn't resist. Perhaps if there was a page structured like an exploded tree of links to all forum topics (sort of like a site map) it might make it easier for users to find specific topics more readily. Dialup? Ouch. I feel your pain. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

that "melted content" does rather rule the day. For example, you'll find almost as many people looking for tix in Tix Offered as people with tix for sale. So discussions are not always where you expect to find them. Hence you may find that search feature in the left-had bar useful also. E.g. if you want to find all discussions involving the Gorge, you can do a search for "The Gorge" and it'll bring up everything with the reference.

What is there like 514 pages on deadnet? Why could'nt you give each page a specific number, alphabetical order the topics and maybe have a spot on the home page for search topic {like google} to access topics or pages quicker. If you could remember a specific number, it would be much easier to relate a number with a topic.Just my opinion, Phatmoye

the really short answer to that is that while we're looking at ways to make the place a bit more navigable, the fact is that the software on which this site runs is seriously deficient in dealing with some of these issues and some things are more fixable than others. Also, there IS a search function right there on the left, right above My Dead.net, which should help somewhat. But believe me, we're aware of the situation and trying to do what we can.

hey now, I was wondering if you could tell me who I might speak to about volunteering on spring tour.I trained with Calico. I passed out garbage bags in the rain with her at Alpine 89'. Whatever I can do to help make shakedown street a safe and fun experience, sign me up.I remember when the only way I knew what day of the week it was by my ticket stub. I couldn't wait to get to a dead show just so I could change my clothes.

Not having ordered Gorge tickets, I can't speak to the status, but you might get a more direct answer by going to the GDTSTOO.com site and contacting the ticket ladies directly.

historically still cameras including SLRs have never been a problem and video cameras almost always have. However, I would check with the venue as different ones have different policies.

I get the sense that they are shipping the hard tix out really late to prevent scalping, but you should have them in plenty of time. There's a lot of discussion of this in the various venue topics, so you might want to compare notes with people over in the relevant venue topics (e.g. Meet Me in Buffalo).

I would like to know if GDTS sends out an e-mail before they send off the tix or do they send them out and they show up at the door??? I'm still waiting on 2 for 4/22 in Wilkes-Barre. From the Western Union in Ottawa here they do not do any american money orders so I sent a canadian money order. Know I relize that they asked for american money orders only and with the exchange I could be short by 2 or 3 dollars with our dollar falling since Jan. It will be a true miricale if the folks at GDTS can fix my order up and send some sweet tix. Any experiences out there with GDTS fixing things like this???

Thanks Marye, I have been asking and the latest word they tell me is that they have mailed my tix!!!! I can't believe it after I royaly screwed up my order, they made it right and have sent my order out. I allready have tix through Consider it Dan but with these now I can bring my 19 son who worked the winter on the ski hills out in BC and is coming back for the summer. I will now be stalking the mailman for a couple of days. LOL Fare Thee Well
