The Grateful Dead Now Appearing at the New-York Historical Society No comments yet

From now through July 4th, one of the nation’s great repositories of history will play host to a remarkable and significant collection of cultural treasures: “The Grateful Dead – Now Appearing at the New-York Historical Society” is the first-ever traveling exhibition of materials on loan from the Dead’s own vast archive of art, documents, photographs and memorabilia, which the band donated in 2008 to the University of California at Santa Cruz.

Among the highlights of the exhibition are: some of the most unforgettable Grateful Dead artwork, ranging from early concert posters and album covers to some of the decorated envelopes containing ticket requests; mailings with news & tour announcements; concert memorabilia; instruments, including Jerry Garcia’s “Rosebud”, Bob Weir’s “Cowboy Fancy” guitars and a Pigpen harmonica.

Working for the Grateful Dead as the Official Archivist No comments yet

Hey, Wall Streeters: Fed up with your job trading now-worthless derivatives? Angry at The System for not recognizing systemic risk? Annoyed that your corporate Yankees box got yanked? Perhaps you should consider a career change. The University of California-Santa Cruz is looking for someone to fill what can truly be called a unique job opening: full-time Grateful Dead archivist.

It’s a dream job…for many. Christine Bunting, head of Special Collections and Archives at the university library, says she has received “several dozen” applications. The job has been posted for six days — which is about the length of the average Grateful Dead jam — so take note, all you burned-out hedgies: you’ve still got time!  Read more about working for the Grateful Dead here and apply!

Dead Show Podcast Tips No comments yet

Because some of these videos are very long, we found that for the best experience and quality- you should start the video and pause it after a two ro three seconds. This will alow the video to load up and provide a nice buffer for top quality sound and viewing pleasure. Even on YouTube this tip will help….. be sure to check out the Dream Set Playlist, its jamming and filled with the best of the web. .. PEACE

The Gem of the Web – Peggy O . Its pure magic for any Dead Head.

And The Music Never Stopped that same night 6-26-94 – Las Vegas aka Dead Head Nirvana for its cheap food and great dry weather.

Happy Birthday Jerry Garcia! No comments yet

Grateful Dead – A truly magical video from Las Vegas 1994. This one is all Jerry, frail yet strong and full of emotion. In my opinion, the solo alone is perhaps one of the most lingering and heartfelt of Jerry’s later years.

Also, just a shout-out to all of the amazing comments on this video… Couldn’t agree with you more! I’m so happy to hear such outpouring of gratitude for Jerry, which goes to show that his legacy still burns very brightly in all us.
