 In this, our first mailing, we are pleased to announce that DeadBase X
 has finally gone to the printers.  As press schedules are tight, the best
 promise our printers had was to ship it on December 5th, barely in time
 for us to distribute it in time for Christmas.  The postcards have been
 going out to our faithful customers, and we are now taking advanced
 orders for DeadBase X; edition numbers are on a postmark priority.
 
 DeadBase X is our greatest edition to date.  Despite trying our best to
 keep the page count "down" to the 576 of the last four editions, there
 was just too much new material -- the new book is 608 pages.  This was
 despite removing the Jerry Garcia solo lists and seating charts, and
 despite setting the lists in a smaller, two-column format (this compact
 format is also easier to scan through for a particular show).  Nearly
 half the book is brand new material.
 
 Contents:
 Set Lists -- set lists for 1965 - 1995, including many newly-discovered
 lists
 Songs Played - information on the songs the Dead have performed
 Discography - the Dead on vinyl, in print, and on video
 Table - a yearly table of the songs played
 Statistics - extensive statistics on the songs played
 Played/Not Played - a look at how the Dead's playlist evolved
 Every Time Played - complete cross-reference by song, a favorite
 Places Played - cross-reference by venue
 Feedback - our exhaustive survey of the best of the Dead on tape
 Deadhead Survey - demographic survey of Deadheads
 Timings - timings of classic Dead tapes
 Reviews - over 400 concert and tape reviews, featuring many new live
 reviews from the early 70's
 DeadBase '95:
      Timings '95 -- complete timings for every show
      Photos '95 -- every stand is represented on 32 pages
      Feedback '95 -- an extensive survey covering the Grateful Dead and
 Deadhead culture in 1995
      Reviews '95 -- every concert covered, some with three or four
 opinions
 Odds & Ends -- an eclectic assortment of square-peg information
 
 We prefer that you mail us a money order or check -- there is plenty of
 time for checks to clear, and credit cards cost us.  We do also take Visa
 and Mastercard (please remember the expiration date).  For credit card
 orders, our policy is to charge cards upon receipt of the order to give
 you the lowest edition number possible.  If you do not care about the
 edition number, and would prefer that we do not charge your card until
 the books return from the printers, please make this clear in your order.
