Only one possibility...
...made this one a breeze. Now I can ease in to the whole show.
Love that tinkling! Mmmmmm, mmmm.
Cheers, and enjoy wherever your search brings you today!
13/13.
30 Days of Dead, day 13 Row Jimmy /Picasso Moon/Don't Ease Me In
I finally worked one out! But it won't let me enter as I am in the UK :-(
Don't EASE us in on a MONDAY
Simple work of that. A four-night run at this location. Catching the Third and Fourth nights wasn't bad. I'd like to have put the 1st set from night one with the 2nd set from night three. Though the third night was the best of the two I attended... the best of all four! Short story no need to hint around today.
Venue name
Another curve ball? But I do believe the name “flew higher” in this particular year. I went to shows 1 and 4 on this tour. At the day 1 show, my58th Grateful Dead show, everything was green. Fun times!
day 12
Should be only Dark Star > St. Stephen. All the archive recording timings are wrong for St. Stephen and The Eleven because the William Tell Bridge of St. Stephen is indicated as The Eleven. Just as they begin transition to The Eleven, someone calls "fade out" and they stop. The comments on deadlists fill in more details.
eleven research
yes you are 100% right about the eleven.
deadbase does not list eleven as played
selection should have been
dark star-saint stephen extended-eleven jam.
william tell bridge is part of saint stephen according to robert hunter and
2 minutes into eleven they stop for several minutes with equipment problem.
deadbase set list does not mention eleven nor do some others.
archive notes eleven stopped after intro jam
setlist.com and other sites that mention the eleven have it at 7+ minutes but if you listen the jam stops 2 minutes in.
just information i found during yesterdays search.
Researchin'
According to my searching, there were 70 shows to start with. But this clearly was unique due to the length of The Eleven.
The Dark Star lined up pretty spot-on with the Dark Star Graph. Deadlists noted it as The Eleven 3 49 with a note. Setlists noted it as The Eleven Jam.
Really didn't leave me with any other options.
Get back home where you belong...
Anyone who can't get this shouldn't be playing. I was at the last show of this run and they played a very unique jam.
When is a JAM a JAM- or not… and more
THE SETLIST PROGRAM (Google it) is much more helpful than DEADBASE, especially, if like me, you’re using a 28 year old hard copy (people used to call that a BOOK). After going through “every”
DS-> STEPHEN-> 11 played from 1968-70 twice I was getting nowhere, with the only real clue being the long pause In STEPHEN prior to the “lady fingers” section that was prevalent in 1968. The ELEVEN was so short- was it considered only a JAM, but being an instrumental, how can you tell?
Anyway, the SETLIST PROGRAM had an ELEVEN JAM listed for that show, and I didn’t even listen- just went with it. If only the Jets could’ve also gotten a miracle.
Just a couple of things about hints while I’m rambling. Some are helpful, but most aren’t- just use what you’ve got. Yesterday we got a two minute ELEVEN, or ELEVEN JAM- whatever- and that was what your search should have been all about. People talking about synching and such works real well sometimes, but look for the obvious clues. People clearly found the “TEN miles skiddin’” in the HE’S GONE- but then it was hinted at by just too many people. And today, clearly a gift, but the hint about it being part of a 4-night run? Come on- hints are to add to the fun, not to just give it away.
Well, time for my coffee…
May I presume to imagine.............
that today's choice will not be difficult to find for us astute listeners?? Either way it's most certainly not going to be difficult on the ears. Thanks for easin' us in on this Monday morning Dave!
November 13th Guess the Show Email
Couldn't find where to answer for Today's trio of songs promo (11/13/23) So I'm putting it here: Its March 18 1991 Capital Centre Landover MD No Brent was a huge giveaway.
Why would you do that Jeff Solomons?
It won't count for you, and all it does is spoil it for everyone else. You scroll to the bottom past the comments to put the answer. Please delete your comment.
@Jeff Solomons – where to post your guess/Contest entry
Hey there JS! I’m guessing you might be a newcomer to 30 DoD(?), so I’m hoping here’s a little help from a friend.
1st off, do not post guesses/answers here in “Comments” section because doing so will NOT enter you in the contest. And 2nd, it’s just not done, cuz it gives away the answer to others who want to find it themselves! And the fun is in the search!
The ONLY way to enter your guess is to Go to the the main 30 DoD page—the one with the 30 DoD artwork on top. Below the artwork, it should show the song title for that day, e.g., “Row Jimmy….”. Scroll DOWN below the Comments to find the entry option. There’s a drop down menu for "Show," and a drop down menu for "Show Date." AND then be sure to click “Submit My Entry” after you make your choices. After you successfully make your entry, it will say “THANKS FOR ENTERING TODAY!”
The fun of this wild treasure hunt is to sleuth out your best guess. Sometimes Commenters leave some pretty fun, clever, veiled hints as to what the answer might be. And that’s part of the fun! But never post your guesses here in the Comments.
Have fun!
It's Either A or A
Picasso Moon may well be my least favorite Dead song but I like the rest of the sandwich!
Thankfully the spoiler didn't succeed in spoiling anything because this one was so easy anyway (as long as you avoid punctuation traps!).
Contest entry form position
In years past, the contest entry forms were below the song player and above the comments. This year, they put the entry forms below the comments. I think that is why you get people putting their guesses in the comments. I hope they return the entry forms to their previous position.
To thismikebenz - re: finding Contest entry form
Agreed! All good now, but the entry placement this year has been confusing. I, too, think that that's why folks don't know where to post their entry, especially newcomers. You gotta poke around more than usual.
And yep, I also think it'd be better to return the entry form to its previous position just under the song name. Crazy fingers crossed!
That’s it for the other one
Pushing the offending comment below the fold…
Dough Knees = The Hot Dog Song
Was there not a better time to boogie on over to the concessions stand than during the first chords of this first set closer?
I had a job trading bits for pieces…
We'd make wrinkles, advertise them as creases!
Where is Phil?
I noticed an absence of Phil on the entire track of day 13. Maybe it my ears but Phil is non-existent. Maybe the mix is way off. Any thoughts anyone?
thx for the gumball Mickey !
fastest find this year .. (from Deadbase's perspective, that combination literally happened 1 time)
gumball mickey
a very small percentage would grock that reference!
