Dupree's Diamond News started in 1985 as Terrapin Flyer, a double-sided free handout that volunteers distributed at Grateful Dead shows all over the country and Europe, too! The handout was made up of set lists from previous shows, reviews, tour dates, and notes of interest. We decided to expand on all these ideas with a magazine. The magazine started in 1987 and contained all that was in the flyer plus artwork, photographs, in depth reviews, interviews, set analyses, spiritual articles, scene articles, historical articles, games, personal ads, vendor ads, and all sorts of other fun and interesting content.
