30 Days of Dead
It's a Dead Head's most wonderful time of the year! Welcome to another 30 days of unreleased Grateful Dead tracks from the vault, one for every day of the month, selected by archivist and producer David Lemieux. The tracks are yours, 100% free gua-ran-teed, but the real fun is taking part in the challenge for the chance to win some sweet swag from the Dead.
Those of you who know what to do, feel free to skip right on ahead. For those of you who need a refresher, here's the drill:
You know your Ables from your Bakers from your C's, but can your finely tuned ears differentiate the cosmic "comeback" tour from a spacey 70s show? Each day we'll post a song from one of the Dead's coveted shows. Will it be from that magical night at Madison Square Garden in '93 or from way back when they were just starting to warm it up at Winterland? Is that Pigpen's harmonica we hear? Brent on keys? If you think you know, lob your answer in and you just might find yourself taking home our daily prize of a 2025 Grateful Dead wall calendar or the grand prize – a copy of limited, numbered, FRIEND OF THE DEVILS: APRIL '78 boxed set!

Pretty quick find.
Fifteen years in, and nine days this year, and we still see folks posting their answer in the comments. Sheesh...
Sure did Love Brent’s soulful voice.
If I had my way, I’d listen to Brent & Jerry all day.
There are things & you can replace
And others you cannot.
Never forget the love we bring.
Thanks David.
And thanks to the most generous unselfish band for allowing fans to enjoy your live performances all these years.
Very Grateful!
Now why would you do that? I take that back and THANK YOU!

This was and might be one of the hardest to ever search for. After listening to countless Casey's, I came across some clear relics. Take a full listen to a very short version of Casey Jones from 1973-10-23 Bloomington, MN. This is totally outRAGEOUS and makes me wonder how many times this took place. You gotta love the words from the band!
and for those who think I gave a clue in the subject. It's a day late and just wanted to put my thought of yesterday's "Casey".
