That's easy enough for me to do - but where's the latest list of canceled dates 
that includes venues?

Btw, there's a poster for another show in the northwest that has no record of 
it, except the date is 11/15

Bruce - Thanks for you input to the 1968 listings.  I have updated the entry 
based on your info.


All -

Here is an updated entry for this show, to say that it was cancelled.

Rather than pull it out entirely, I'm updating it.  It would be cool if we had 
a simple DeadLists page with cancelled shows listed. That way they won't keep 
cropping up again years from now. 


Band Grateful Dead

Venue PNE Coliseum

Location Vancouver, BC

Date 11/16/68 - Saturday posters tickets, passes & laminates

Comments According to Bruce McLennan, tickets had been sold, but the show was 
cancelled. Newspaper ads called this the "Soul Explosion". The line-up was to 
be: "Grateful Dead, Loading Zone, Little Dion (7 year old wonder), Special 
added attraction: Chuck Berry. Starting time 8.00pm, tickets 2.50, 3.50, and 
4.50."

Hi

 
Can’t recall if it was deadlists I previously emailed about this or not but 
this 1968 show in Vancouver was cancelled. I had a ticket for it and was really 
bummed when I found out it wasn’t going to happen. It was a weird line-up but 
it would have been fantastic to have seen them live in 1968. It was never 
rescheduled.

 

Had to wait until 1973 before they came back to Vancouver and I finally got to 
see them live. By then the Dead was no longer the psychedelic beast that I 
still love the most. In fact, I’m listening to the Valentine’s Day show from 
1968 at the Carousel Ballroom as I type this. Amazing show.
