    Jeff has mentioned a few times about seeing the GD. Vegas was one of them with his brother.
    Ed has met Jerry, accordingly to what Simon Townshend said. I can't find out anything more than that but I need details!
    Yup to Chicago

    Cool as hell that Trey is playing with them too. If I was anywhere nearby I would be there.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    Was thinking GD should offer PJ their stage to play after they are done, again. I could try to knock off 2 of some my most regretted missed shows. Had tix for GD in '95. Chose not to go and was not aware that PJ was playing after. Thought I catch them some other time. Then Jerry gone. I am 90% going in July. I think Fri and Sat. 10% on the lake because that is what is done on the 4th. \:D/ b-(

    I'm hopeful they'll headline at this summer's Outside Lands Festival in Golden Gate Park.
    After all, it is their backyard and where they got their start playing for free on the back of a flat bed truck.
    It would only seem fitting to say a final "goodbye" to the home town family.

    Saw them at the Manhattan Ballroom in new York City in 1971. Pigpen was still alive. Great show. Great crowd.
    Hold On

    To keep on topic it seems that Jeff is the only confirmed member to see a GD show? I'm betting Boom caught a show.

    To be on topic, I know for a FACT that vedder has seen the dead live even when Jerry was alive. Hung out with one of vedders friends at msg in 98 and the dude told me how him and vedder saw the dead, I want to say either Milwaukee or New Orleans.

    To keep on topic, Fact? Prove it. How do you know for a fact that Ed saw the dead live?

    Hmmmm, good point Scott. The guy could've been bullshitting me for my nugs. He seemed like a legit dude.

    Ed told me he saw the Dead in the mid-west when he was younger growing up there. I told him I use to follow the Dead, but when Jerry's playing started to fall off in the 90's I switched to Pearl Jam. He seemed slightly concerned that I was critiquing Jerry's playing.

    I'm trying to stay on point hear, but what the hell is shakedown ally? Is it another bad dead song? Or is it where "ed" supposedly talked to you at a dead show?

    It's a right of passage when you go see the dead. I went back in 94 to the sports arena in LA. What a show both inside and out. I wonder if any of the boys walked down that ally.

    To keep on topic, there's no way any of the boys did something as silly as that.
