The Press Release
Seven years ago, when Jerry
passed, we made a conscious decision to retire the name Grateful
Dead. We did so after some deep soul searching and out of our love
and respect for what we had created together. After we played
our first shows together at Alpine Valley last year, we were all
profoundly affected by a sense of awe and connection that none of us
had felt since we played with Jerry.
It was a magical occurrence
that no one could have anticipated, yet one we all want to embrace.
To us, this was the Grateful Dead- without Jerry. We had stopped
being the "Other Ones" and were on our way to becoming
something new but at the same time very familiar.
Grateful Dead conjures up many different emotions and feelings for
all of us; it was a BAND, it continues to be a community, an
approach to life, a electrical current, a dream, the list goes on.
Whenever and wherever we played this past year, we all knew that we
were experiencing Grateful Dead in its multiplicity of forms. We
also know that this would not have been possible without all
of you joining to support us. Therefore, with the greatest
possible respect to our collective history, we have decided to keep
the name "Grateful Dead" retired in honor of Jerry's
memory, and call ourselves: "The Dead."
Please join The Dead and
very special guests for a Valentine’s Day celebration. All
proceeds will benefit the Unbroken Chain Foundation, the Rex
Foundation and the Furthur Foundation.
The show will take place on February 14, 2003, at the Warfield
Theater. Tickets will be available at noon on Monday, February 10
through Ticketmaster outlets and at Ticketmaster.com and online
through The Dead Tickets.
