Well, by now a lot of you have probably heard the rumor that Jerry
has gone to meet his maker, and that the Dead organization is
keeping it a secret until they can figure out a way to announce
it without casing mass histeria.

Well, I don't have any inside info regarding this rumor, but
based on available evidence, I'd have to say it's a bunch
of unkosher bologna. I called the hotline today and there
was a brand new message announcing a bunch of new shows,
including - no - it can't be - 3 more Oakland shows! Also,
some Jerry Band shows in the Bay Area and also another
acoustic Jerry show! It's not likely they wouuld make these
announcements if, in fact, Jerry was visiting Pigpen and
Keith in Rock and Roll Heaven. It's also quite obvious
that I'm living on the wrong coast!
