Have no fear Dave, at Nassau last year I got a handout at the show expressing the dead's opinion of video equipment. It stated very eloquently that there was a problem at prior shows with videots and that the use of such equipment is expressly forbidden. The tapers may stay at their pit. While I agree with your views on videotaping, I must say that tapes have gotten me through many happy occasions and tapers(audio) have done much for the popularity of the dead and the spread of the subculture. To all those tapers who have taken their time and money towards improving their quality, I must say: Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile. You people are great, and thanks for the many hours filled in between shows. Keep it up! "Going where the water tastes like wine" -Glenn
