New York City Question...

[PassedOutGuy]

While Ive been there several times I have never gone looking for any heady, Grateful Deadish related shops along the lines of Terrapin Station in Buffalo... does anyone know of any or have any suggestions?

Cheers

There's a couple of great CD shops with tons of bootlegs of Dead, Allmans etc... in Greenwich Village. It's not that large of a neighbourhood, so you should be able to find the stores I was in. One is the first floor of a house, up a small flight of steps.

Thanks Jaimoe... thinking more along the lines of shirts, accessories etc... but it doesnt hurt searching them out for something to do...

In fact, you could spend your entire trip in the Village you'd be happy. Don't forget The Blue Note (one of the US's best jazz clubs) is in the Village, plus the restaurants are great... and so is the shopping.

Oh i know... the blue note has Chick Corea with Victor Wooten on the 30th unfortunately I couldn't find tickets and we booked our dinner at Maze that night...

for sure, the village is where to go. the middle and east end of christopher street are your best bet. west 4th at christopher (turns into 9th street). and west 8th street between fifth and sixth aves. (just north of washington square). loads of headshops with dead content, but few deadshops. check out cigar shops too for glass. careful with directions in the village, some of the streets change directions, and it can be confusing.
