    Congrats Kevin on your daughter's fine grades! Confederacy of Dunces is one of my favorite books. If she hasn't read it already, she should read Catch-22, similar in humor.

    to Mr. and Mrs. Dedicated and your daughter for her achievements. Looks like she is delving into the vault of our written culture, I remember when I read thos books and how much they have meant to me.

    Congrats
    Congrats to you and the misses and your very smart daughter. Best of luck to her in college. For those who don't know, catalytic converters contain precious metals. With the relatively recent spike in the price of these metals, it is becoming more common for creeps to saw them off your car and cash in. Pathetic, but true.

    congrats to Ms Deadicated
    well I have no idea what a 4.07 GPA is, but it is obviously good! Good luck to her with what ever the future brings. You may be glad that she has not inherited her father's Deadhead tendencies. Mixed with a generous dose of Live Dead, the influence of some of those books created a multi-year 'gap' in my life which I am only now slowly piecing together. Still I am sure she is far more sensible that me, but I wonder if she has inherited Deadicated's predilection for filing everything by date ;-)

I'm not sure if I'm asking this in the right forum area, but I hope so...Both of my parents have been life-long Deadheads. They started going to shows together in the mid-70's, and the music didn't stop until their divorce. My dad was Tim Davie, not sure if his name will ring a bell for anyone. He had a lot of friends, met a lot of awesome people, and always loved to have a good time. He worked his @$$ off every single day of my life to support his family. He passed away suddenly on Saturday February 12- less than a week ago. He was only 54. My younger brother and I are making arrangements for his memorial service. We have decided to create a soundtrack for him- and also for us. We were able to find a couple of songs that remind us of him. But even though we both grew up dancing around barefoot to the Dead, we are both at a complete loss for GD songs for the soundtrack. Can anyone suggest any GD songs that would be a good addition to Dad's soundtrack? Thanks so much for any suggestions <3

Can I talk about the novel I just published?? Available on Amazon.com? Called "The Hallucinogenic Bible". Based on years following the Dead around the country, being harassed by cops, sleeping in rest areas, selling sodas and grilled cheese, arguing with friends about the religious implications of the Dead? Is this the kind of thing I can brag about?? I hope so..... "The Hallucinogenic Bible" by J.T. Gossard

After 33 years of working, I retired today: Look for me on the slopes at Mary Jane starting Monday March 7th and throughout the month of March. I'll have my fly rod too if I see some stream water flowing freely....

So sorry for your lost, life is a fragile gift that is lost easy. I would suggest He's Gone,And to lay me down. Fire on the mountain and Shakedown street. Do you know what your father's favorite songs were? I would try to include them. I hope that this helps you in your time of sorrow.

Gr8fulTed ........Now, this isn't as good, but could be funny. A few weeks ago, my 7 yr. old grandson got in trouble @ school for peeing on the grass @ the playground. (my son thinks he was showing off or something) Last week, he got an award for highest academic score in the 2nd grade.....go figure-one extreme to the other....OH, maybe he takes a bit after me....haha....:)))

Let's see...Mary Jane, that's Winter Park, no?I'm thinking about retiring so I can listen to the E72 Box. I'm going to Steamboat this summer - it's going to be odd with no snow. I'll be training there because three weeks later is the SF 1/2 marathon. I did it last year and it about killed me - guess I'm a glutton for punishment! (My oldest daughter will be with me and hopefully she'll get me through with a little less agony). Have to say I'm a bit envious. Enjoy!!! " Where does the time go? "

After a completetly catastrophic end to 2010 (4 deaths in 3 months), things are improving so dramatically that I can barely believe it. I keep pinching myself to make sure that it is true, and not some dream that I will wake up from right back in the same old nightmare. Also I am happy to say that my daughter is pulling out of her year of sickness and loss-depression, and is back to focusing on school and going foreward. We are going to have a Give Thanks for Life Improvement Fest on the Spring Solstice this year.********************************** I am not young enough to know everything. Oscar Wilde

As a novice fisherman, it should be comical to watch me tie flies and actually hook and land a rainbow or brown trout in some beautiful setting. Kevin, I will be in Steamboat later in March to ski; however, the Yampa River runs through downtown and may offer a wading opportunity.Tiger Lilly: I'm really glad for you and your daughters looking ahead to better times ahead: I'll google Life Improvement on the Solstice. It just might help all of us out! Thanks Mary and Gypsy Cowgirl for the well-wishes: you know I'll be in contact when I visit northern California.

Amicus Foundation (Matthew Kelly, Bob Weir) who help refugees in Thailand are auctioning a Jerry Garcia guitar, Lucky #13. Please visit our website 4 more infohttp://www.jerrygarciaguitar.com June 5th-12th on eBay we will auction of a Jerry Garcia guitar we nicknamed Lucky #13. Virtually all proceeds of this auction will go to benefit Amicus Foundation (Matthew Kelly, Bob Weir). Can you please help us spread the word? Maybe a news item on your website, or a mention in your Twitter accounts? Briefly; This is an authenticated Jerry Garcia guitar made by the guitar building masters at Alembic: serial number #72-13, custom made for Jerry Garcia in 1972, the thirteenth instrument made by Alembic., June 5th at 7PM PST we will start the auction for this guitar on eBay. Virtually all proceeds from this auction will go to benefit Amicus Foundation. Amicus is dedicated to helping children at risk, developing educational opportunities and working with impoverished communities in Thailand., The guitar is steeped in history. In the early days of the Grateful Dead, Alembic, under Stanley "Bear" Owsley's inspiration, was making instruments and PAs that pushed the envelope, experimented with new ideas and were built as road worthy as possible using military grade electronics. Things that had never been done before with a guitar or bass were accomplished by Alembic. This guitar embodies all those qualities, especially the electronics. For example, there is an inline analogue filter with resonance that can really provide a truly unique sound. Jerry Garcia gave this guitar to Matthew Kelly during a recording session of "A Wing and A Prayer". Matthew in turn has donated the guitar to Amicus for auction. , Lots of photos and all the info you need concerning the guitar, the auction and Matthew's relationship with the extended GD family can be viewed here:, http://www.jerrygarciaguitar.com

Since they won't come to Europe I am very excited to have tickets booked to see Furthur near Portland on 27/28/29 September. It all fitted in perfectly with a planned work related trip to the US and with a little persuasion from Hal R, I am all set. Looking forward to meeting some folks there, Mona and Johnman and others. Now I just have to wait.

1. Been a Dave’s Picks subscriber continuously every year since 2014 (10 years running). Seems that I been a good customer. Well David L. how about giving back a little something to all us loyal customers of 10+ years?
2. How about re-issuing the 74 and 77 Winterland box sets with a twist -> make them 50 year anniversary re-do? I think that would be a get around legal issues of original release.
