    Got it at 12:02AM. Subject
    Got it at 12:02AM. Subject says "Roseland Confirmation". Body of email is sparse. Venue instructions, time and location of show, and my name in bold print. Has a link at the bottom for Dead.net complete contest rules.BTW, I sent GDTSTOO a rather direct email about an hour ago telling them what I thought about the whole shebang.

    Confusion about "Guest" - Help Dead.net, need some clarity (^_^)
    I am a winner for Roseland and I did not see any place on my entry form to enter in the name of a guest. My winning email clearly states that "I have been selected to receive (2) tickets" but I do then also see on the email that it says, "The person accompanying them must be the same individual whose name is provided upon entering the ticket giveaway and this person must also provide a valid state-issued PHOTO ID in order to enter." And, my winning email has my name as BOTH the Winner and the Guest! Myself (Winner) and my guest are driving from very far tomorrow for the show, so we hope to get some clarity on this here in the next 12 hours before we hit the road! Boy this is confusing!!! I am praying that this is like how they did it when Phish played at the Filmore and you simply need to show up at the door with your guest (whoever it is) and if your name is on the list (as the winner) for 2 tickets it gets you both in. If someone from Dead.net gets this with any affirmation or clarity on this you can email me a response directly at antonio@dailypassion.com See you on the dance floor! (^_^)

    Further evidence that the latter part of the email related to the sweepstake entry on Friday from 6-9 is because this is what the entry form asked for, which is in the fine print of your email: Entrant's First Name Entrant's Last Name Entrant's Email address First Name of Entrant's Guest Last Name of Entrant's Guest

    This is the email I got. The top portion clearly does not sound like a sweepstakes entry. I took it that I had won. I figured the bottom portion of the email related to the initial entry into the sweepstakes from 6-9pm on Friday. When I get an email stating "You will be sent an email confirmation voucher that you must print and provide for entrance to the event", I take it to mean "You will be sent an email confirmation voucher that you must print and provide for entrance to the event".

    O.K. Here is the original e-mail I received from GDTS
    In the subject line: The Dead 3/30/09 Roseland Ballroom - you've been selected Hello, You have been selected for the GDTS TOO allotment of tickets for The Dead's performance at the Roseland Ballroom on Monday, March 30, 2009 at 11:00 PM. The intention of this small venue show is to provide an opportunity for fans to see The Dead in an intimate setting for free. Here's the deal....

You must enter the venue upon arrival and there are no in/out privileges. Please return this email with an "accept" or "decline" in the subject box. Again, this email must be returned by Saturday at High Noon. I responded "accept" and that was the last I heard from them.

Looking forward to seeing how adding Branford in the mix ends up sounding.Wished they would have had more guests for more of the shows. Maybe some surprises still to come, as they are only at mid-point of their tour? One can hope!!!

Was awesome, they didn't stream the show live, but they played the first set...which sounded like it was tearin the roof off NJ! Last night's first set rocked, was simply amazing....ENDING it in Lovelight....and this one had the energy of a freight train! It was pretty funny that in my home in Chicago, only 5 dayz! I was sitting here on my computer chair dancing, singing, twirling was chattin with other heads, and dancing and singing...Oh the computer age of Deadness. Everyone on that chatroom was amazing buzzed from the show. Wow, I thought, could this be the first time you've seen the boyz since 2004? WHOA, It's some pretty crazy stuff to think How awesome this tour is and I can't wait for May 4,5! WEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh, Dance! _____________________________________________ Will you come with me?

Tribute to the founding of the Hudson River by Henry Hudson in 1609. At least that is the only logical explanation I have heard. AMAZING night at the Garden. "One watch by night, one watch by day If you get confused, listen to the music play"

Monkey, depends on how far your willin to drive. Big Basin Redwoods SP is the shit but quite a ways south towards santa cruz near boulder creek. Portola redwwods SP is a little closer but still a ways south. It's somewhat near skyline blvd (ca 35). I've camped out there while seeing a couple ratdog shows in san jose last summer. It's a bit of a drive, especially fryin but worth it. Theres a place called anthony chabot regional park in castro valley on the east bay. I haven't been there but it's much closer to mountain view than the redwoods and I might also try camping there after the show. I highly reccomend Big Basin though if you don't mind driving. It's one of my favorite places anywhere.

I haven't heard about a June show with Dylan, Willie, Mellencamp, etc. but it's plausible. Dylan, Willie, the Dead and dozens of other bands are convening in MI the first week of July for the Rothbury festival, so some/all of those guys will be "in the area" 'bout that time. Try checking their websites. Since I'm catching only the two Spectrum shows on the spring tour, I broke down recently and picked up tickets for Rothbury (rothburyfestival.com). The boys headline Sat night 7/4 (anyone willing to take odds on a US Blues encore?) and Dylan's the main act on the final night, Sun 7/5. Gotta see the boys one more time!

Now that I've actually attended a couple more shows, instead of just listening to them, thought I might make some observations. They definitely seem to be improving a bit with each show, and with the high baseline they set at the taxi tour shows this has made for a quite pleasurable experience. It is important to remember that this is The Dead, not the GOGD, and it is an evolution in perspective, practice and content. I also saw the 02, 03 and 04 incarnations and where they are now is better than any of those were. I have seen several others comment on one aspect that I find I must agree with, and that is that Warren just isn't loud enough often enough. Jerry would regularly play extremely loud, and that dimension (the loudness, not the particular notes or progressions) is just not present consistently. It's the thing that's holding back those crescendo points from ever really peaking the way they used to. Hopefully they'll figure that out, because most of what Warren is playing is quite good and fits well. Only the occasional spot of "there's that Allman Brothers thing again." Interestingly enough, they did have the good sense to mix Branford hot at times when he was really channeling Jerry. Listen to the Crazy Fingers from 4/29 for a good example. And throwing a meatball like Milestones straight into his wheelhouse, no surprise he hit that out of the park. I'm really glad I got to see the Branford shows because he really did fit in quite well, and was obviously having a great time being there. At points where he wasn't playing he was bopping and dancing right along. The onstage rapport and communication between all the band members seems really high and is certainly fun to watch. They are all quite clearly having a great time with it. Likewise Jeff is fitting right in as well, really kicking it up a notch where appropriate, otherwise providing a great deal of cohesion. Never obtrusive,always tasteful, and obviously an essential ingredient in the mix. It is good that Bob's guitar is more prominent because he is playing quite well despite the occasional equipment issue. He really is a much better guitar player than some people seem to think. I'll chalk up the "updated" vocal timings to "improvisation." Who ever said voice isn't an instrument anyway? And a show just isn't a show without a booted lyric somewhere, right? Phil just seems to never stop smiling, enough so that if you didn't know better you might be tempted to wonder if there wasn't some other reason why. But I'm pretty sure the reason is because he's just having a ball, and he's certainly playing like there's nothing else he'd rather do ever. I'm also happy to see and hear him singing more. I really don't get why some people have an issue with this. Is he Mel Torme, SInatra, Robert Plant? Hell no, he's Phil Lesh, and they're his songs. If he wants to sing them who the hell is anyone else to say no? How many times in the 70's did my friends and I stand in front of him yelling Unbroken Chain? Every show? Don't have to do that any more. Mickey and Billy are really, really on as others have noted. Both nights during Drums there were points where my chest was actually vibrating and my pant legs were flapping. Now if they would only learn to mix Warren that hot where appropriate... All in all, I am happy to have been able to be present where great music was being created, rather than merely replicated, and I'm really looking forward to Friday night. Any one else interested in that opportunity should get themselves to one of these shows. The only possible bad time is one that you might bring along, so do yourself a favor and don't bring one. Go expecting something new yet very familiar, and you will be rewarded. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

Get to rest up before the next 2 daze! Need it after the Izod shows. Very little sleep in the last couple days, have great memories, and am anxiously awaiting the next 2 shows!Shakedown continues to be risky with those peddling hippie drugs,in that there seems to be more then usual that will sell you something that is not as it is claimed to be. Be careful about the scams, they are skilled in getting you to part with your money. Otherwise, if you can catch a show or more, GO...and have a blast in whatever manner tickles your fancy! Grate to have them back on the road playing together again!!!

Dude, I must have done something really nice in my life time....the karma has come my way for Chicago's Cinco De Mayo celebration! 5/4 is gonna rock no doubt, getting to see all you crazy family members again and shakin my bones. I lucked out big time....just talked to my Buddy last night....he said, "Oh yeah, you remember me talking about luxury box seats for the Dead? I said, "Does a bear sh*t in the woods?" "Well my dad's company doesn't want them and he knew how much you love The Dead, you want to go on 5/5?" I think I almost fell down, but I mustered up enough strength to say, "Hell Yeah!" Needless to say, tis going to rock. And I can't wait to miracle two lucky heads and watch them smile from ear to ear!

i wanted to see some east coast shows but needed work, but i am going to the last 5 showsdenver, L A, 2 shorline, and the gorge in george, WA. i've seen orig dead, further dead, the other ones dead, the tribute dead in berkley, w/ trey, bruce, and merl, the new dead, ratdog, phil & friends, planet drum, and its truly the greatest story ever told, passenger, only one in ten thousand come for the show. the music is a living thing evolving, the shows become live art, the important thing to remember is why you came to the show, to just watch, or be a part of the art. the indoor shows have more reverb, but outdoor at shoreline, and the gorge, make it unreal with the colors of the sunset. i hope some of you easties get out for these shows the gorge camping is spendie but the shakedown is the best i've seen in years, 2004 was the 4th of july and was a sight. see ya on the road or at the show no-one noticed that the band was all packed and gone were they ever here at all, and they kept on dancing...... the music never stopped

I sure hope The Dead continues to play in the future. I was unable to go to any of the concerts during this tour. If they plan another tour in the future, does anyone have the dates? Hopefully they can swing down to Missouri next tour. God Bless the Dead!
