    GDTSToo - got my MSG tix yesterday
    I know it's hard to wait for mail order in the day of instant online ticket sales, and I know I'd be bummed to get my moneyorder back instead of a pair of tickets, but I was lucky enough to get two sweet seats in the mail yesterday and I hope the same goes for many of you! My buddy got our Spectrum tickets last week, so I presume that most people will be getting theirs in the next day or two (we're in PA and NJ). We're still waiting to hear on the other four MSG tickets for our group, so we're not exhaling just yet! It's gonna be a sweet run ;) As for the Dead radio, check out Jerryradio.com for a rotating selection of full shows. The Sirius/XM GD station is pretty siiiiick though... Good Times

    You want it, you got it, but you got to pay for it. It's good, but it's gottern very commercial. GDradio.com was pretty much all dead with the rest of the boy's music thrown in there with some interviews and stuff. There were a few commercial messages, but pretty low key. You could see what show was playing. I just checked it out after a long hiatus and see that deadnetcentral.com and icenine seemed to have laid down the law to those folks. Even on this site Lemieux got slammed for putting a whole show in pieces in the taper's section (5/5/78) and nobody is allowed to download (easily) taper's section anymore. Message to Bobby, Phil, Billy, Mickey & Hunter: How much money is enough? I understand how it is feeling that everybody trying to feed off a piece of you but lines that keep getting drawn in the sand wash into the sea, evetually... Have a good tour everybody!!! I'm outta here :-)(-:

    re: mail order status
    There is a link on GDTSTOO to sign up for information updates: http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/GDTSTOO/Following is a portion of an update that I received on 2/13 and was also previously posted in this thread: We are processing the last of the Philadelphia orders this week & next as well as MSG. The first Shoreline is the next out of the door. The remaining shows will be processed in 3-6 weeks. Credit cards will also be processed this week & next. Please try to hold your phone calls and emails as we are busy bees filling ticket orders. I will admit that mail order is slow. However, back in what my step-kids / grandkids refer to as "The Day" we had the east coast and west coast hot lines - this was before the incredible age of the internet when some of us were still ( and still are ) listening to vinyl. The folks at GDTSTOO are good people that have always worked hard to take care of us and deserve credit for all they do. After all there are far more fans wanting tix than there are peeps in their office. Try and take a deep breath and ...... smile, smile. smile there will after all be music to fill the air! Peaceful Journey to You All...... Saint Stephen with a rose. In and out of the garden he goes. Country garland in the wind and the rain. Wherever he goes the people all complain.... Shine On!

this tour is kind of over, but other forum topics are reasonably lively. There's a good deal more to the site than this one topic.

Hey there, can anyone tell me if GDTS-TOO has sent out the mail order tickets for the Further gigs for Sept. 18-19-20 in Oakland? Did anyone here receive their tix yet? Gigs are two weeks from today, and though I haven't done mail order since spring tour '95 it seems that I always got my tickets in the mail by the time it was two weeks to the show date. Thanks!

We're definitely considering DSO on 11/21. Do you really think they're worth seeing?

out of the bush for a little while, met up with a little birdie who told me to keep yer eyes and ears open for some NYE shows at the Great American Music Hall in SF. odds are it will be Further rather then the Dead or possibly the DOG and Phriends... at the very least, Jackie Greene will be playing!! ( -: the rumor mill has just started cranking back to life. love and peace.

that'd be a real tough ticket. The GAMH is tiny. Really cool venue, but tiny.

Since DSO and Govt Mule each have NYE plans already I would place my bet on a RatDog/Phriends show like last year. "I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel. Can't win for tryin. Dust off those rusty strings just one more time. Gonna make em shine."

yup, the music hall only has about a 5 or 600 standing capacity... Greene is slated to play there 12/30 / 12/31; will some of the boys show up to jam? will the Dog or Phriends set up their own joint gigs back at the Civic Center like last year?? well, well, well, you can never tell. Further is busy until mid-Dec, on the east coast... figure a couple of weeks off for Christmas, and then... hmmmm.... peace.

What is the address of the Great American Music Hall and is it near the Cal Train Station? Have regard for your covenant, because haunts of violence fill the dark places of the land. Do not let the oppressed retreat in disgrace; may the poor and needy praise your name. Psalm 74

folks, please keep in mind The Dead or the Dog or Phriends or Further for NYE is a rumour. IF, Lesh or Weir do not schedule their own shows, they MAYBE might, MAYBE show up at the Music Hall and jam with Jackie... well, well, well, you can never tell... peace.

Hi! I am working on research for a film about DIY music venues, and in the process have stumbled across accounts of the Dead's 1967 "Great Northern Tour." I have read that this was one of the first instances of a major band financing an entire tour themselves. I do not know much more than this, or am I very knowledgeable about the Dead but I thought someone here might be able to answer some questions and shed some light on the history. Is there a board member I should talk to in particular? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Direct message me with any and all insights. THANK YOU -Sam

as I recall from postings elsewhere, Jackie Greene is doing HIS NYE shows at the GAMH those nights.

well well well, you can never tell. right NOW, Jackie is scheduled and tix on sale for the GAMH, 12/30 and 12/31/09 same same last year, Jackie WAS slated for the GAMH around this time, but once Weir and Lesh decided to play the civic center, Jackie cancelled the GAMH and joined in over there. last year, it was, however, around this time that Jackie cancelled the GAMH... so if there is no word from Weir or Lesh in the next couple of weeks, I wouldN't expect any dead / Phriends / DOg shows. the BIG factor this year, , Weir and Lesh are doing the Furthur thing on the east coast until 12/13... so who knows? maybe those boys will just want to take a well deserved rest... Weir got to rest up for the Jamaica thing, too. personally, I think there will NOT be any DOG or Phriends shows, but they MAYBE will show up at the GAMH and jam with jackie. (they did that before some other show a while back...) rumours still flying around... if there is any confirmation one way or the other, please let us know. likewise, I'll do the same. peace.

but with our luck (or mine anywhose..) it would be left over green beer from St. Patty's Day and for my money, one thing the world does NOT need right now (or ever for that matter) is a bunch of drunk monkies flying around sick on green beer. Hate it when that happens. The camp on Mem. weekend sounds nice BTW.

Hey now! New to the forums, but long to the vibe! We're traveling from DC/VA to CA for this summer's Mountain Air Fest!! Curious to know from other's who have been to this location- the Calaveras County Fairgrounds/Angel's Camp....should we expect it to be as large and as well outfitted as our (east-coast) All Good Festival, for example? Car camping probable if one arrives early? Bountiful food vendors, so as not to worry about cooking? Port-a-johns and pay-showers available? Kind friends? Mellow/safe vibe, despite the huge turnout? We'd love to know as much as we can so we can be well prepared to party! Thanks! ...and see ya'll west-coasters out east for the remainder of the Spring shows!

This thread is pretty old, but I don't know if it's old enough to need wrinkle cream. Besides, wouldn't that just make our monitors look all streaky? Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

I suppose it says something that wrinkle cream is now considered an indispensable tour accoutrement. Wrinkle cream spam deleted...
