Grateful Dead’s Third Annual Meet-Up at the Movies Featuring ‘Sunshine Daydream’

From Dead.net

On a blistering summer day in 1972, the Grateful Dead took the stage on the grounds of the Oregon Country Fair in Veneta, Ore. for what would become one of the most legendary concerts of the band’s storied history. Join us this summer when we screen the previously unreleased concert film “Sunshine Daydream” as part of our now annual Grateful Dead Meet Up At The Movies.
Originally shot on 16mm film and painstakingly restored to HD resolution, “Sunshine Daydream” captures the band at the height of their powers (fresh off the Europe ’72 tour) and at the epicenter of the counterculture movement. Special features include never-before-seen footage of the concert day as well as recently recorded interviews with key participants from the time such as Ken Babbs, Sam Cutler, Wavy Gravy and Carolyn “Mountain Girl” Garcia, who provide insight on how the community came together for this special event to help raise money to keep the local town’s Springfield Creamery afloat. This extraordinary screening also shines a spotlight on some mighty fine tunes, with a playlist containing all new Stereo and 5.1 Audio mixes done by Jeffrey Norman at TRI Studios in San Rafael, Calif. and mastered by Grammy® winning engineer David Glasser at Air Show Mastering in Boulder, Colo.
“Sunshine Daydream” will only be playing on the silver screen for one night! Come along and connect with Dead Heads in your neighborhood on Thursday, August 1 at 7:30 p.m. local time. Tickets are now available at FathomEvents.com.

Video ~ Jerry Garcia’s 70th Birthday Celebrated in Movie Theaters 8.1.12

From FathomEvents.com
“In celebration of what would have been the 70th birthday of the Grateful Dead’s Jerry Garcia, NCM Fathom Events and Rhino Entertainment will present “A Birthday Celebration: The Grateful Dead Movie Event” on Wednesday, August 1 at 7:00 p.m. local time. During this special in-theater gathering, fans will be treated to the 1977 cinematic concert journey “The Grateful Dead Movie,” as well as a special birthday commemoration on Garcia directed by Justin Kreutzmann featuring the Dead’s Bob Weir and other surprise guests.

Tickets for “A Birthday Celebration: The Grateful Dead Movie Event” are available at participating theater box offices and online at FathomEvents.com. For a complete list of theater locations and prices, click here (theaters and participants are subject to change).

The pre-show birthday commemoration features Weir and other luminaries reflecting on Garcia and also gives fans an inside look at Weir’s new state-of-the-art multimedia studio, the Tamalpais Research Institute (TRI). Audiences will also see a slideshow of rare photos of the band set to a previously unreleased live track.  

“Bringing ‘The Grateful Dead Movie’ back to U.S. cinemas is the ultimate way for Dead fans to celebrate Garcia’s 70th birthday,” said Shelly Maxwell, executive vice president of NCM Fathom Events. “This one-night event will allow fans to gather at their local theaters to honor Garcia as they once again experience the music that made him a legend.”

This one-night event will be broadcast to more than 450 select movie theaters across the country through NCM’s exclusive Digital Broadcast Network. NCM Fathom Events and Rhino Entertainment recently teamed up for the highly successful cinema presentation of “Grateful Dead Second Annual Meet-Up At The Movies 2012” in April of this year, as well as “The Grateful Dead Movie Event” in April of 2011.

Recorded more than 35-years ago under the direction of Garcia and co-directed by Leon Gast, “The Grateful Dead Movie” was shot in October 1974 at the Winterland Arena in San Francisco prior to the Grateful Dead taking a two-year sabbatical. Debuting at the Ziegfeld theatre in New York City on June 1, 1977, it chronicles several different facets of the original Dead Head phenomena and includes band performances of “U.S. Blues,” “One More Saturday Night,” “Casey Jones,” “Playing in the Band” and “Sugar Magnolia,” among other Dead classics. ”The Grateful Dead Movie” has become an iconic staple of popular culture for Dead Heads.”
