Curious......

I guess this is to the band. My friend, Robbi C was wanting to vend at a show you played last yr. As DSO know who she is, I was surprised that they didn't let her vend her incredible pics of the GD. We have NO intent of "stealing' money from ANY band. We want everyone to be able to keep on keeping on. She's not aware of this post. So shes not responsible for my question. Just want to make that clear. We love DSO very much!!! You guys/gals are surely keeping the GD music/spirit alive. I just think that it would have been a good fit to have her sell pics of GD there. There is always been a connection with members of the GD and DSO, and also extended family, which we are. If people want a DSO shirt/cd thats what they'll spend their money on . And rightly so!! But if they want a pic of the GD, then thats where there money will go. The vending scene in the early yrs of the GD was one of cooperation. Its still like that SOMETIMES, but the venders have gotten a little outta hand over the years.(this comment does NOT refer to DSO at all)

Just curious,thats all. After all, DSO IS a cover band of the GD. Albeit the BEST cover band!!! lol And yes, you folks do add your "own" thing to the music. That is one thing I love about this band. Jeff REALLY is adding his own thing, but still keeping in the Garcia style. Jeff, keep it up.

I appreciate DSO VERY much. And the fact that I'd say a large % of your fans have NOT seen the GD is a testament to both the power of the GD AND DSO. Keep it rocking and moving.........

you let one person vend ... then you got 2 people vending ... then 6 and it gets ugly and unorganized...

nobody likes Anarchy ... except Anarchists ...

I highly doubt it is personal on the part of DSO ... but somebody has to put the foot down and that foot is DSO (Animal House reference)
