Closing of Winterland DVD Giveaway

Forums:

Thanks to the generosity of frank3, I now find myself with an extra copy of the Closing of Winterland DVD set. frank suggested that if I already had a copy of the DVD, I should pass it on, and that's what I'm doing here.

Let's make this a pick a number between 1 and 100 (inclusive) contest. The person who chooses a number closest to the number I've chosen without going over the number I've chosen wins the DVDs. One pick per zoner, please.

Just to keep things on the up-an-up, I've emailed a PDF to judit that contains the winning number. (judit, you're eligible to participate if you vow not to open the PDF until after the contest is over.)

This contest will end at 11:59 PM tomorrow, Wednesday, May 12, 2021.

Mike...are you a math teacher?

English, Ned. The "inclusive" thing?

OK, I was going to guess a prime number (23) if you were a math teacher. Now I have to put some thought into this....

Did you think up the number, or was it chosen randomly?

Do you like old gladiator movies?

I'm 60, Ned, so I'm past my prime, or some around here would have you believe that at least.

DId I think up the number? Do I look like I have time to come up with my own numbers, and a system to contain them? Sheesh. I picked one of the existing numbers.

I never liked old gladiator movies, but that doesn't mean I couldn't have strong feelings for an old gladiator.

Does the person with the most exclamation points win!?

60

That was easy.

lol @ Ned

doolittle, this is a number thing, not a punctuation thing. If you'd like, I can lecture you at length about the difference between the two.

joe already picked 78, slick.

Does a zoner even exist that don't already own this ?  If so, not much of a deadhead.

That's fucking hilarious, Ras. Where do you buy your material? Trollazon.com?

Over used word of the day - troll

You telling me all you fuckers here don't already have this in your collection ?  WTF do you jerkoffs do with your money, buy phish tix ? 

You sorry ass Sally's

70.

 

I have the audio, but I don't think I ever sprung for the vid.

 

Can I still be a Deadhead?

I'm trying to decide whether to use my favorite number or the sign-in math sum...

I'll go with

47

It sounds like Ras got himself some bad liquor, or just some liquor.

Surfdead, when did you see your first GD show? 1969? I think you're good to go on this one.

Unless Zero is somehow permissible. I'll always go with Zero.

Nothing's like Zero.

Next time I do one of these contests, I'll have to shift the range by minus one to include Zero.

Chance in a million

It just occurred to me that I'm giving away Mouse's work without his permission again. Bad Zoner. Someone should rat me out, stat!

>>> Does a zoner even exist that don't already own this ?  If so, not much of a deadhead. <<<

Thanks, Ras, I love finding out I''m not much of something I've been for, oh, maybe 55 or so years. Deadicated, but not much?

Mmmkay, Custie.

Keep yer day job mike, cuz you + funny have zero in common.

am  in trouble too ??

 

if not, i have some give aways coming up 

 

It's was Ras' doubling down on his ludicrous custier-than-thou proposition that really cracked me up. Some solid gold right there.

Edit: frank, you should probably contact the FBI about joining the Witness Protection Program. You know. For your own damn good.

i was thinking that

now that you have my name/addy

frank, shortly after receipt, your name and addy were disposed of in a burn bag in full compliance with Bureau policy. You're pretty much a nobody now, and a real nowhere man too. Enjoy your anonymity.

>>> joe already picked 78, slick.

Duh, didn't see it.

46. (For Biden.) 

hey slick ! 

I'm here just to gamble. If I win please send my prize to Raz. Priority Mail.

Hi Mike. Very cool! I'll pick 25 if still available. Thank you!

>> Chance in a million <<

Yes! ...we need some sort of complex algorithm(!) to accurately calculate the odds of picking a number between 1-100.

Hey Frank3. Hope the spring is treating you well. 

Sorry to cut in front of your 47, Ned.

Speaking of custies, how many of you buy every single dicks / daves picks ? Don't lie now,, you post about it with every release.  And yet you don't own the closing of winterland ?  You Fucking Pathetic Losers, yep you too jud.

And to differ with a post or a thread makes you a troll ?? GFY mike.  Wow has this place turned into a major league suckfest.

I'll try 45.

 

Which means I'll need to be exact.

 

Thanks, Mike!

Hmm -time stamp on the thread is 8:19, but the last post says 8:16.

Now where did those three minutes go?

Give it a rest Ras, we get it...you're number 1

Maybe it's an edit thing, Surf? Or gremlins, perhaps?

What a collection of loser fkn wannabe deadhead sub-custies!

-Raz

I forgot to specify the time zone in the OP for the end of this contest. I'm going to say 11:59 PM EDT, unless someone has a problem with this. Ras?

We're all #1 Dog Star, just don't step on my toes and I promise I won't stomp on yours.  Ok mike ? Good

Different points of view can be a bitch sometimes, but adults learn how to deal.

Ras, there's a big difference between having a different points of view, and coming into a chill thread like this one and telling people they're not deadheads because they don't own a DVD that you bought, and calling them names like fuckers, jerkoffs, and sorry ass Sally's [sic].

Get over yourself, and if you can't do that, kindly go and drag your ass across the carpet in another thread. Thanks.

I don't have the DVD. That's okay. I no longer own a DVD player.

I also don't own a single Dave's/Dick's Picks. I'd also rather that none of you freaks sends me sick pics.

Different points of view are important and swell and worth discussing. Throwing shit on Zoners is messy and not swell. Be good to us and yourself, Ras.

Ras is edgy. He has me quaking in my Birks and pissing in my Guatie pants.

I own the DVD but I never watch it because all of it is on youtube. That way, when I feel like watching something from that show I don't have to get out of my rocker to put the DVD on.

It is a great documentation of that great band when they were still great though, and is worth watching.

The only Dick's Picks or other official full show releases that I own is the first one from the Great American Music Hall. Otherwise those deals are just not my thing.

As I think of it, the only DVD I do watch is an added documentary that comes with the 25th Anniversary Bridge School Benefit Concerts DVD, but I only watch that because I'm in it two or three times for a moment.

I get a kick out of seeing myself on the TV.

Hey, Mike. Since you are always starting give away threads, why don't you just give zoners money? How bout everyone just picks a number and you send it to them? 
 

2000

Hey, Timpane, we already have Ras spewing bile up in this thread. You're a day late and a dollar short as usual, bud.

You wil get more friends if you give away money. 
 

4000

Sez the guy with no zoner friends.

No winterland closing, not true deadheads hurt yer widdle feelings ? That's what got all yer panties in a bun ? Well thats just too fucking bad, cuz it's true.  And yep, definitely a Sally or possibly a Nancy, take your pick ladies.

The Vagina Monologues is what you are.

Ras, meet Timpy. Timpy, meet Ras.

Please don't invite me to your wedding.

Raz ain't Ateix.

He saw Jerry. 

Vagina's commin out of the woodwork for this thread,, atta gurls

Ras, what's your deal? Many Zoners love vaginas and the people attached to them. I'd like to see more women on Viva. I don't care about their vaginas if they're happy with them.

((((Vaginas))))

The way Raz is talking, he clearly thinks women are the lesser sex.

Really man, "Sally"? "Gurls"?

Glad you're keeping it classy.

I blame the black screen in between. By that I mean if you could be here to see me post, guaranteed you'd be laughing with me instead of the alternative. Imo, that any of you still can't loosen up enough to get a chuckle out of my posts, really ain't my fault. Zoners for the most part take themelves waaaaaaaaaay to seriously and I'm trying to help with that affliction.  Not True Deadheads gets you bent ? Wow, that's some messed up shit. Like I really give a fuck what dvd's you own. And seeing you tight asses get in such a huff over what I consider, absolutely nothing, just makes me wana fuck with you more and grease that ass'a yers loose. Damn near impossible task but I'll keep at it. Of course if y'all don't know me by now, you never will. 

all the cliches:

didn't read this

posting anyway

sweet offer

no spot taken

~~~(:

I always thought you were a nice guy, Ras. Don't know what to think now, so I won't. The black screen doesn't have inflection or nuance, it's just words laying there.

Not true Deadheads didn't "get me bent", I just always think it's absurd when people tell me what I am (or amn't).

 

Ras, buddy, you're the only one with their panties in a bunch.

I feel bad for Ras's new pup

He'll have to teach the dog to read before it can misinterpret writing on the black screen.

36

I love vaginas. Ras is killin you guys out here. Damn. Bk still protecting his little protégée.

 

<<<<~~~~ #3~~~~~>>>>>
 

Coming soon, Mikey boy. I know you can do it

timpane, you've got a pretty ornate entry into the contest:

<<<<~~~~ #3~~~~~>>>>>

3, right?

Only an hour and 9 minutes left...

Timpane, you have zero credibility here, and you're the zone's version of a village idiot. That's really quite an accomplishment, when you consider the history of the black screen.

The number I chose was 99, so (gwtcsmc) joe, who picked 78, is the winner.

Joe, I have your new address, and will get these out to you tomorrow.

Thanks again to frank3 for gifting me the DVDs in the first place. Random acts of kindness strike again.

What can I say, the absolute fucking boredom of this place lately just gets to me, so mixing it up old zone style seemed appropriate. No hate intended. A bit surprised only a couple of the usual loudmouths and judit responded.

Believe me if you knew this pup you'd pity me,, I'm too old for this shit.

I got one more for ya Lance, bk, mikee, dog star, slackster, then I'll put it to rest. Weather finally cooperating, have a great weekend peeps.

Shit, now I have to overstate the obvious for Timpy. Over the last 7 years, every little turd with an inferiority complex and axe to grind has made a point of coming after one particular person, me. It's pretty clear that you little shits see me as alpha, the one to take down. Roar.

Personally, I don't give a fuck about that shit, but it's clear that you and your little swing-dick pals do.

Now, to overstate another obvious: all those other idiots are no longer here, and I am. You're the last one, and you're relegated to being the village idiot.

That said, maybe it's time for you to shut the fuck up for once.

 

Thanks, mike!!!  And frank3 for the generosity!

Much appreciated guys!!

I'll add this to my non-deadhead collection ;-)

 

 

Shut 'er down....

^^^4.2. I just think you suck at zoning. No one thinks your "alpha", lol. Classic melt.

^ Classic ODD.

Thanks for the chuckle.

Oh Timpy....classic gaslighting.  And a day late, taboot.

Ned, you're a jerk off lol. Stop trying to alpha fight with Bk, he already called it.

Nobody's "alpha fighting." We all agree that you're an idiot.

I reject your labels.

Be yourself.

TGIF

bk is an alpha male? 

bwahahahahahahhahahaha

he really is taking 6's timeout hard.
