Fare Thee Well PPV?

[ttomni6]

Has anyone heard whether DISH will be one of the satellite providers that are supposed to be carrying the final Grateful Dead shows PPV's?

I've called DISH several times but the CSR's haven't had any information.

I'd bet they will, but they'll probably charge some outrageous price like $99.00

Looks like online, it is $20 to $30 per show. All 5 for just $109.95. Man, that is like getting it for free or something!

Online only. Some local theaters are carrying the simulcasts too as well as SiriusXM.

"The Chicago performances are billed as the final time the Dead's "core four" will perform together. Not only will the Chicago shows be webcast and simulcast in theaters, but Pay-Per-View broadcasts will be available from cable and satellite providers. Lesh, Kreutzmann, Hart, Weir, Hornsby, Chimenti and Anastasio will play two sets each night. A pre-sale for the webcasts is available here and costs $79.95 for all five nights. The pre-sale will run from May 1 to May 15."

Looks like the order period for the Chicago shows on DISH has started.
$29.95 per show or $69.95 for all 3.
