I called up Bill Graham Productions in San Fransisco at 1:20pm Pacific Time this afternoon and asked. They called the Dead office and then told me (with a trace of relief) that Jerry is not dead. Now, of course, the rumor was constructed such that a denial would be expected, but I guess we'll find out on Wednesday or Thursday. What a way to ruin a day... -- Larry West (USA+619-)452-6771 Institute for Cognitive Science non-business hours: 452-2256 UC San Diego (mailcode C-015) La Jolla, CA 92093 U.S.A.

Well, Wednesday night is here and there's a brand new
message on a new answering machine at the California
Dead Hotline (don't know about NJ), announcing concerts
in Long Beach and some Oakland convention center and
various East Coast locations....
So, it looks like that rumor (which I didn't start
but did forward to net.music.gdead from net.rumor)
was wrong -- sorry if I've disturbed or upset anyone.
I'll repeat that number for those of you on drugs:
415-457-6388
(the message is several minutes long.)

From: "David D. Story" <FTD%MIT-OZ@MIT-MC.ARPA> Of course J.G. owns the farm. So don't the rest of the family. Why would they be called the Dead ?
