 The Dead Summer Getaway 2003!

Let?s make this thread the official Dead summer tour thread. Here, fans of the band can add facts, rumours, dates, opinions, etc. relating to the summer 2003 Dead tour. And hopefully after these shows happen, people will post their personal experiences from shows they attended.
Today The Dead announced part of their summer tour. There are two legs to this tour and they announced dates for most of the 1st leg.
June 15th-- Bonnaroo Music Festival, Manchester, TN
June 17th-- TBA
June 18th-- TBA
June 20th-- Saratoga Performing Arts Center, Saratoga Springs, NY
June 21st-- The Meadows, Hartford, CT
June 22nd-- Tweeter Center @ Great Woods, Mansfield, MA
June 24th-- PNC Bank Arts Center, Holmdel, NJ
June 25th-- PNC Bank Arts Center, Holmdel, NJ
June 27th-- Tweeter Waterfront, Camden, NJ
June 28th-- Tweeter Waterfront, Camden, NJ
June 29th-- Vernon Downs Raceway Vernon, NY
July 1st-- Summerfest, Milwaukee, WI
July 2nd-- UMB Bank Pavilion, St. Louis, MO
July 4th-- Willie Nelson?s Picnic, Austin, TX
July 6th-- TBA
July 7th-- TBA
July 8th-- TBA
The second leg, July 29th-August 10th has yet to be announced.
Apparently Joan Osbourne is now in the band. Interesting.
I?m keeping my fingers crossed that they will play Alpine or Deer Creek. But I imagine they?ll be covering mostly the west coast for their second leg. Either way, The Dead is going to make this summer great for me. I?m sure many long, strange trips await me.

Yeah Bonnaroo is in the list I posted but I put in the wrong date. I put down June 25th when really it's June 15th. I edited my original post so now it's correct.

july 6th-8th must be deer creek. the dead and phish were both confirmed for seperate three day runs at deer creek about a month ago, and the 6th-8th was originally thought to be the phish dates... so it would only make sense...

I didn't know that. If they play three nights at Deer Creek, I will without a doubt go to all three shows. I love Deer Creek.

Call me crazy, but when you lose your lead singer, you should stop playing music. I cant stand Journeys new front man, who do they have singing for the dead?

You think just because Jerry died, all the other band members should stop playing music? The remaining members are all very talented and have an incredible passion for the music they play. There is also a large following that has a great passion for the music they play. Why should they stop? Jerry was great but the Grateful Dead phenomenon was not just about him. The band is happy. The fans are happy. Why not keep playing? And to answer your question, most of the band members sing. Lesh sings way more than he did with Grateful Dead. The new lead guitarist, Jimmy Herring sings. The keyboardist Rob Barraco sings. Even Hart sings a little.

I have logged in this once so that I can set the "last seen" feature up. let the faggots flow forth into OTD and have it. Its funny how they all grew nuts after I left. I'm not here, I'm not reading, but I urge you all to keep melting down over me. I know, I hurt alot of people, and they deserved it. epic win for me, epic fail for you.
ythan, you rock dude. i feel that my time at the shroomery was very positive and enjoyable, but this site is no longer for me. im not mad or upset or disappointed, i just want no part in a pg rated faggot festival.

By all means keep playing. But the name should remain with the original band.

They retired the name Grateful Dead. Now they're just The Dead.

Steve Winwood will open seven dates on the first leg of the tour, beginning on June 17 (location TBA). In the summer of 1994, Winwood opened ten shows for the Grateful Dead when an incarnation of Traffic briefly reunited (the line-up also featured original member Jim Capaldi). Willie Nelson will perform at six Getaway shows, with moe. making an additional appearance at the June 29th gig at Vernon Downs Raceway in Vernon, NY.

Wow, nice to know I cannot speak my mind with out losing a shroom over it. What are they suppose to be anyway? Some sort of status thing? You can take them all, I say what I want to say when I feel like saying it. You can?t take THAT away from me now can you?

Although it's much further from me than Deer Creek, three nights at Red Rocks would be awesome. I've never been to Red Rocks so this might be the summer to do so.

Red Rocks is definitly one place I would love to see them. I saw Willie Nelson there awhile ago and it was amazing. Too bad I live in Pennsylvania and its so far away.
