    Displaying the 30 Trips Scroll

    Hi all. I know this isn't the correct forum topic for this - but when I searched, I found that no one had posted in the "30 Trips Box Set and Digital" thread since 2017. Not sure if it's good form here at dead dot net to necro a thread, so...

    I'm wondering if anyone has framed or found a more economical way to display the scroll from the 30 Trips box set? Asking bc I just picked up a second such scroll for the specific purpose of doing this. I want to show it to the data science and graphic visualization students at the high school where I work. But I didn't realize how LONG this thing is! Looks like I'd have to order a custom frame.

    I know I could just reproduce it on the large-format color printer that we have... but I sorta want to show off the genuine article, not just for the edification of the students, but also for my own satisfaction! However, at first blush it's not going to be much cheaper to place it between two custom-cut pieces of acrylic (my first "low cost" idea) as it would be to bite the bullet and order a custom frame. So did anyone else go down this road/have any suggestions? Thank you all in advance, and sorry to hijack the thread.

    More on target: I am listening to "Pig's Boogie" from the 12/31/75 JGB show as I type this.

    Wonder if the arch breach is why I couldn’t get anything to play yesterday afternoon? Was on relisten not arch, but I thought shows were sourced from arch? I don’t have an account on arch so hopefully no worries there…

    Why would anyone want to mess with the archive? Idiots!

    Don't know if we'll ever see it released as a box. it will be expected to come with video? which I hear they don't want to release video. What's out already on vid is enough.

    Spectrum 89 would be nice box!

    10/6/84 saturday night
    went with 3 friends for a long weekend to VA
    2 friends swore-off GOGD concerts after that night
    so upset, so mad about the performance
    particularly the lead guitarist
    had to listen to them for the entire 6 hour ride home (lol as I write this)
    they wrote them off,
    and they NEVER returned
    those poor lost souls

    Peace for All!

    Close friend had an awesome time at that '83 show - he has a fond recollection of an endless stream of party favors moving along the line, help yourself and pass it along, as they waited to get in.

    The '87 show is a personal favorite from that year.

    Saw Bob and Wolf Brothers there last year. Awesome show on a stone cold gorgeous late summer evening/night. Just a stage set in front of the slope. My brother and I talked to some old timers we met there about whether the stage for Bob and Wolf Brothers was in same place as the earlier Dead shows. Memories were hazy but it seemed that it had moved, probably because there had been a lot of development over the years.

bringing it all back home.... https://youtu.be/MNwqV_HpMSE re Sam Price, would have had more credibility if the lead singer wasn't reading lyrics off a sheet of paper, that clip was made for radio.... ;-)
