The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum is proud to present a major exhibition devoted to a truly unique American rock and roll band, Grateful Dead: The Long, Strange Trip. The exhibit will open on Thursday, April 12, as a part of the 2012 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Week events.

What a wonderful month it's been, sharing our love of the Grateful Dead through song and video! We applaud all the hard work and effort that you, the fans, put into the DEAD COVERS PROJECT, and we hope you'll continue to watch and support all the amazing participant videos on YouTube until we fire up the DEAD COVERS PROJECT again next February.
Throughout the month of April, we'll be shining our lovelight on a handful of artists that really made the grade. You'll get to know each of these five artists and find out just what made them connect with the Dead in our exclusive DEAD COVERS PROJECT profiles, but for now we'd simply like to congratulate the following participants (in no particular order)...
In the Grateful Dead days, it was always fun to see the band after they hadn’t played for a few weeks, because even inveterate set list analysts were hard-pressed to predict what they might play the first night back, and whatever rotational habits they might have gotten into during a tour had similarly been obliterated. It was a clean slate.
On January 12, a glittering cavalcade of Bay Area jam band stars will gather for a special one-of-a-kind benefit show at Slim’s nightclub in SF to honor the memory of the late roadie Steve Block and to raise money for Sweet Relief, a wonderful non-profit organization
Fans have been asking, who is in the Mickey Hart Band? Here is your first glimpse at the members of the Mickey Hart Band. Stay tuned for more inside looks coming soon.
It seems as though there’s always something to talk about in Mickey Hart’s universe. The Busy One has been working in the studio on an album with his dynamic new band, and at the end of November will embark on a big West and Midwest tour with the group.
Look for the the 7 Walkers, featuring Bill Kreutzmann, guitarist Papa Mali, multi-instrumentalist Matt Hubbard (Willie Nelson, Fastball), and legendary New Orleans bass man George Porter Jr. (The Meters, Funky Meters) in a city near you this Fall.
Furthur will be playing the East Coast and Midwest throughout November, 2011, with the tour dates below. Go to Furthur.net for complete tour information and ticketing information.

Mickey Hart has discovered the rhythm of the America’s Cup.
“This is multi-dimensional rhythm machine,” Hart said after an exhilarating sail as a guest racer on board an AC45 with Russell Coutts and the ORACLE Racing team today. “The sails, the boat, the current, the wind, the integration of the sailors. These guys are rhythm masters.

This covers 3 months but is the smallest of the 5 Parts. I'll add some extra filler for this one to make up for it.

My wife Caitin and I along with two unidentified "ushers" at the Further show in C-Bus Ohio on 7/3/10. Firework show next door that night was icing on the cake!
Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzmann’s latest musical project is 7 Walkers. He and the entire group including Papa Mali, George Porter Jr and Matt Hubbard stop by the Grateful Dead Channel studios to perform live and chat with host Gary Lambert during this special 1-hour broadcast!
May be hard to see this small, but, Phil, Bob, Mickey, Jerry, and I believe, Vince, are all visible in my copy. My last time getting the opportunity to shoot a picture of Jerry, unbeknownst to me, and this is what I settle for. I thought that though Jerry may wobble, he wouldn't fall down. I am only now beginning to understand how old his body may have been getting. Miss you Jerry.

So over in "If You're Going to San Francisco," Cosmicbadger was telling the harrowing tale of a near-death experience while hitchhiking in Northern California. One thing led to another, and now we've got this topic.
A one stop shop for all the winter tour shows including Phil's 70th birthday bash in San Francisco. 24 bit versions of a couple of the shows also included in fact the 2/22 show is only in 24b format and if there is interest in this format I can add more to the vine. Anyways this is just an easy way to get the whole tour. Summer tour is coming up!

Penn State, The Dead, Oct. 13, 2008, and a beautiful sunset over the stadium, complete with sundogs, kissing the skyline. Always weird weather anomalies, when we all get together, and in tune. Strange how that works?
If you're in Chicago for The Dead shows, be sure to catch this exhibit right across the street from Allstate Arena!

Totally overcome with grief, I drew this picture of Jerry the day after he passed away. I'm not a very good artist but I am proud of this little sketch. I put my love for him into it and I will always remember those extremely sad days after his passing. Where I was standing the moment I heard the news, how depressed we all became as a family.
Dead Head Sticker on a Cadillac-seen today in Golden Gate Park, SF @ Jimmy's Old Car Picnic.......isn't that a lyric from an Eagles song????? think so....xoxox & Pink, too! xoxoxo Gypsy Cowgirl
We promise not to make a habit of soliciting donations from Dead Heads, but this opportunity was too good to pass up, as it benefits someone we dearly love: Mark Karan.
