Grateful Dead 50th Anniversary

Mighty Peeved

Just got the tix via FedEx in Chicago. Glad to go, they made us wait quite a bit. Boy, I am mighty peeved though. It is like the others are saying. That big anal wad Shapiro tricked us. I did mail order for the most expensive seats and received pretty much the worst ones for any show I've been to. Paid $200 for each ticket and am sitting in the stands at the Back of the stadium in the 200 levels. Could have easily paid the $100 for GA floor and got as close as I could. But no, these greedy fux took advantage of us. Usually the fans who pay the most get the most, better views, vip experiences, something. How about some free greens and beer, could make me forget about it. Oh well, I will be selling as much bootleg dead stuff as possible to make up for them stealing from me. It's only fair. I just hope the band themselves did not have any say in this. And if there is an actual class action lawsuit against Shapiro and Madison House, count me in.

S'mores

I like the IDEA of S'mores, more than I do the actual thing - I'm losing my taste for the super-sweet. Finally found the Reese's Oreos, and you'll be shocked - yes, shocked! to hear that I still prefer the original. Now, let's talk pie. I *love* pie, especially fruit pies (except peach) Tart cherry pie (ala mode, thank you!) is my absolute, positive, hands-down favorite.

Desktop Only?

Tried logging in on my laptop. No luck. Then saw this: Watch All 5 Nights Anywhere 2 Shows Live From Santa Clara 3 Shows Live From Chicago Available Worldwide Available on Desktop Only 30-Day Unlimited Video-On-Demand Tried logging in on my desktop, got in. Is this right - desktop only? Never saw this when I ordered.

has the webcast started? i

has the webcast started? i thought is was supposed to start at 5:00, 2 hrs before the show?? my screen says "will start soon"

Webcast

No pregame

Try Chrome

I could not get in using Internet Explorer - must be something in my configuration.I could get in when I used Chrome. Good Luck!

not on yet

I'm on through youtube on WiiU. I thought I saw Roku works too.It won't work with my Amazon box. I haven't tied the youtube app on my samsung tv. I guess some work, some don't. Unfortunately my receiver in being repaired and I'm down from 7.1 to 2 crappy tv speakers.

Webcast

bummer. thanks. thought i read different.

If all else fails...

SiriusXM.com offers a free-30 day trial for their internet radio.

Can't login for tonight's video

I paid for all 5 nights video and got a message that my credit card had been billed. But when I try to watch get asked for a Username and password. I was never asked for a username. Tried the email address about 20 times, no good. Been on hold with the phone help line for an hour. Concert starts in 25 minutes. This is a PPV abortion. And of course there are lots of disclaimers about how there will be no refunds. MLB.com you seriously blew this one.

laptop????

Is it desktop only??? I can't get it on my laptop.........

Can't get it on my desktop.

Can't get it on my desktop. Whoever is responsible for the paid stream is not performing.

Chrome worked for me, IE would not

Thanks mes7596

BUMMER

Desk Top Only - Seriously!

my youtube backround FTW

my youtube backround FTW paper stopped waving in the background. This is either very good, or very bad, or I need more stuff to make it start waving again. oh, it'waving again. I'm worried. Getting another beer. Those ARE working!

Laptops OK

I'm in on my laptop. But via Chrome, not internet explorer. With IE, I was getting the same login issue that others are having. You should be able to enter your email address and password that you set up with you did the "Redeem" from the email.

Is anything on

On my youtube it is as if the show hasn't started, maybe it hasn't I dont know

cannot either

Same as you. I even emailed the customer service people. Any news yet?

I'm on

I'm on, I'm on, I'm on !!!youtube works. Nice stream on my tv. Cancel and try YT?

Same Here

Can't Login, paid for it and they charged my card.Been on the phone for 40 minutes. TYpical "New Comercial GDCluster F***'. after 50 years of loyalty you'd thinkit's be free.... Bwahahahahaaaa

Webcast

Got on YouTube .have to have Google email account from what I can tell. No preshow camera movement/ inside or out of stadium. Would be nice to see what the scene looks like.

Rip Off

Still can't get the video I paid for. They said the audio would be on XM, but they are playing a concert from 1984. Rip Off!!!!!

No Internet Explorer for MLB use firefox or chrome

Could not login switched to firefox all was good. Password reset page wouldn't work googled MLB password and found another page that did.

Show has not started you still have time to get it worked out

Show has not started you still have time to get it worked out.

Arrrrggghh

Paid twenty bucks and can't even get to a Login screen....sitting on hold with the Custer service line for 30 min....so frustrated, better get refund for this, talk about a letdown

Waxing Nostalgic

Sorry for all those having trouble logging in, try google chrome instead of internet explorer as previously mentioned. Wow, for a guy who's been "off the road" for 25 years (saw approx 150 shows, last in 1990), it's a little overwhelming to have mid-floor views on the big screen, so many memories are washing over me already. Really glad to be a part of this, no matter how it differs from the dream we dreamed long ago...

Fare Thee Well

Doesn't work on IE but chrome is good. I'M ON!!!! Thanks Jerry! Username is email address.

how do I get volume thru

how do I get volume thru google chrome

hey now

can someone send me alink please cant find the show

getting on (or off)

Strike that from the record.

YouTube

YouTube stream works great on PC, iPhone,Chromecast, and even Roku (it;s SD on Roku, but they said it wouldn't work at all, so better than nothing).

Trey

I want to give Trey the benefit of the doubt, but he just looks like an outsider up there, doesn't fit in with the boys. Maybe by day 5 he will.

Setlist

Set 1 Smokestacky jam> Truckin UJB Alligator Cumberland Born Cross-eyed Cream Puff War Viola Lee Blues>rainbow jam Set 2

setlist

My friend texts it as Slipnot>Truckin'. Maybe the instrumental intro wasn't recognized. Totem: You're probably right. I think the intro was not recognized by my friend — or maybe she really wanted to hear it. I'll bet Trey is holding his own.

blue mike

the intro had a bluesy smokestack feel to it, no slipknot I could hear

Good so far...

:), :), :) running just fine on the Mac system, tho couldn't get it to port over to the wi-fi & had to run a cable. As for hating on Trey; fer fucks sake, dude...." Shut up and dance"

Jam > Truckin...

??? Had an almost 'Tiger' feel to it...

~

My transmission from wrong planet. Thanks, Totem.

@Setlists

Set 1 Smokestack Lightning Cream Puff War Limb by Limb Bertha Sneaking Sally Through the Alley Resurrection Jam Milking the Turkey Set 2

@songs and things

Set 1 Smokestacky jam>Truckin UJB Alligator Cumberland Born Cross-eyed Cream Puff War Viola Lee Blues>rainbow jam Set 2 Cryptical Envelopment> Dark Star

Re: @ set lists...

Rotflmao. Tho that was more 'Limb By Limb' than Reba...:p

Jam

wheres the jam from on the PPV?

so far

They looked a bit lost but trey owned cream puff war and from there it's been great. Trey brings it all together imo.

@trey

He doesn't suck....meant in a good way

also..

Since I've been stuck here in the hospital for the past 3 days it's nice to hear some good vibes. Guess I'm lucky I got shut out of these shows, would've missed them anyway.

ppv jam

dunno but its good

Positive vibrations

It's moving to see the boys together again--- my wife broke into tears a few times--- I can't criticize, this is a dream come true. Phil looks vibrant and happy, they all do and they sound amazing after 50 years. Can't wait for Trey to let loose

Having fun

A few rough vocal moments but it had some high points. Long break !

Keep up the feedback,

Keep up the feedback, Grateful for it! Enjoy the ride!

Did they go take a nap?

Hitting the oxygen and

Hitting the oxygen and defibrillators pretty hard

O2 and defibs

What do you mean by that? @uconnjhd: I think you're right, and it's a clever way to point out another legendary long break, but perhaps also put them down for being old and slow. I guess I'm a little over-sensitive, as I am old and slow myself, and have had personal experience with defibrillators. They're not exactly something that you hit on like an asthma inhaler :-)
