i also vote for net.music.dead. there are a number of dead heads around here, and i know several who should be on the net at nearby sites soon. i am (still) looking for a copy of ACE. i would like lyrics and guitar chords for various songs which are not published in the 'standard collections'. i am particularly interested in the songs which mention states (of the USA). i already have tennesee jed a few times, and i would like El Paso, Jack Straw, ... i would also like dark hollow, monkey and the engineer, on the road again, ... there is a head and waterbed shop in columbus, ohio near(ish) OSU that sells a couple of dead flags/banners. about 3'x4', nylon, several different colors, two different logos. one is skull and roses and i forget the other. if someone would like to call this place (it is the most obvious shop of that type, i think), check prices and availability, I would appreciate it. any other sources for this sort of thing? other flags or ? does anyone know where i can get an electric skull and/or other dead mirrors? blues for allah or ... any info on west coast concert schedules? thanks. hi heads, David (Reisner) uucp : ...!ucbvax!sdcsvax!logo arpanet : sdcsvax!logo@nosc

In response to the last of David Reisner's questions, there will be a Dead show at Irvine Meadows sometime at the end of March (I forget exactly) ... tickets go on sale about the end of February. There is a Grateful Dead hotline number in San Fransisco which gives recorded info about all dead shows and Garcia Band, Bobby & the Midnites, etc. The number is: (415)-457-6388 It generally takes about one to three minutes and is about as up-to-date as you can get (although they don't always remove old info quickly). There is also a similar number in New Jersey, but I don't know what it is. I suspect they tell you that number when you call up the SF number. -- Larry West, UCSD (...!sdcsvax!sdccsu3!ee163hp)

this evening when i came to my car in its parking lot, a schedule of the spring tour (northeast) was stuck under the windshield wiper. (this is not utterly astounding: i have a "in the land of the dark..." sticker on my bumper, and the car next to mine had a "steal your face" on the rear window) So i pass along the schedule: april 8 Virginia 15 Rochester ny 16 Meadowlands nj 17 ditto 22 New Haven 23 ditto 25 Philadelphia 26 ditto 28 Providence! the exclamation point was there. see you... judith !decvax!brunix!jss

{...now is the test of the boomerang...tossed in the night of redeeming...} Has anyone heard about the Grateful Dead touring New England in the near future? A few friends of mine said there were going to be shows in the beginning of October! More importantly... does anyone know how to find out when the tickets go on sale? (where's my sleeping bag?)...

The Grateful Dead will be touring this fall starting with an unconfirmed set of four or five shows in the Bay area around the end of September. The confirmed shows (since I will be out of the country, I haven't memorized the dates) are all on the East Coast and include Richmond, Hartford, Augusta, Meadowlands, and a few others, some with multiple nights. Tickets are available now by mail order only, for the entire tour only (the "Dead Pass"...something like $160 for I think about 13 shows). Tickets for individual shows may be on sale by mail order in the near future. For the most up-to-date and accurate information, call the Grateful Dead West Coast Hotline at (415) 457-6388. That gives tour info, the secondary number to call to get ticket ordering info, and also the number of the East Coast Hotline (in NJ) that I haven't bothered to memorize. I will be in the Arctic during the tour. If anyone plans on taping these shows, please let me know, I'd love to trade....

More importantly... does anyone know how to find out >when the tickets go on sale? (where's my sleeping bag?)... Thanx! The tour dates have been announced. There is a ticket "book" (for the full set of concerts) available. Check the hotline, all ye DeadHeads who live back there. I think that you need the east-coast hotline to get full details.

Alas, I moved much too slow... If anyone knows of even *one* extra ticket for the Grateful Dead Show in Richmond on Oct. 6, please let me know ASAP. Charlotte should be good, but I have a feeling Richmond will be even better. thanx, Tom Edds UUCP: ...mcnc!unc!psyche!edds or ...mcnc!unc!edds If the thunder don't get you, then the lightning will!!

How about this deadbit: The *Carolina Grateful Dead Society* (in Chapel Hill, NC) was recently organized, and has about 60 members. We're officially recognized by the University!!! The group has several functions: Last fall we got a bus for the Charlotte show, and we're going to try to do that for other nearby shows. As you might guess, much of the activity is exchanging information (facts, rumors, and otherwise) about the Dead. We're trying to get a tape library organized, so we can all expand our collections. If anybody has some ideas on how to set this up on a Unix system, I'd be glad to hear them. Other plans include having a tie-dye party to make shirts for the club, which we could sell to fund our trips. Maybe we should have a bake sale, too. It's great to see people enthusiastic enough to do something like this, gathering to share some common interest. Are there any other clubs like this? Let's hear about 'em! a l s o . . . The Dead played two hot shows in Hampton last weekend. It looks like nobody else is going to post them, so here are the set lists: Hampton, VA 3/21/85 Alabama Getaway-> China Cat-> I Know You Rider Greatest Story Playing in the Band-> They Love Each Other hot jam-> Drums-> Space El Paso The Wheel-> Tennessee Jed The Other One -> Ain't Superstitious Wharf Rat Looks Like Rain Johnny B. Goode Might As Well Around and Around (Keep Your) Day Job Hampton, VA 3/22/85 Feels Like a Stranger Scarlet Begonias -> Cold Rain & Snow Hell In a Bucket CC Rider Ship of Fools Brown Eyed Woman Terrapin-> Cassidy Truckin'-> Big RR Blues Smokestack Lightning -> Brother Esau Black Peter -> Don't Ease Me In Sugar Magnolia It's All Over Now Baby Blue "Bucket" was a *big* surprise, coming out of Scarlet the way it did - the crowd seemed to love it. Many of the tunes were the same ones played last Spring at Hampton, but that wouldn't have been as noticeable if I hadn't been listening to last year's show over and over.
