The Core Four of the Grateful Dead have announced plans for an additional date at Madison Square Garden and plan to give away 10,000 seats for the November 7 concert. Facing a chorus of criticism from fans after adding tour dates after having charged exorbitant fees for tickets sold during their supposed farewell concerts in Chicago and California, the Dead & Company will have to hope secondary market outlets and scalpers don't figure out ways to snatch-up 'free' tickets to sell as they did during the Pope's recent US visit. Fans unable to get tickets won't be entirely shut out. The concert will be streamed under the American Express Unstaged series of web casts.
