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!
Hint:
A second set jam sequence that is about as classic from this era/year as it gets, featuring songs from 1967, 1970, and a double dose of 1972. We always try to go out with a bang during 30 Days Of Dead, and this certainly fits the bill

Indianapolis, IN, Market Square Arena
The two tours that surrounded the Fall Tour of 1976 (Summer 1976's comeback tour, and Spring 1977's tour of excellence) often overshadow this tour, but there are many great nights from September and early October 1976, including this great show in Indianapolis

Thank you! Finally found how to enter, that was very helpful!
Welcome all newcomers! But please don’t post your guess in the Comments section! First of all, that will not enter you in the contest. And 2nd, it’s just not the way the game's played.
The fun of this wild treasure hunt is to sleuth out your best guess. Sometimes Commenters give some pretty fun & clever & veiled hints as to what the answer might be. That’s part of the fun! But we never post our guesses here in the Comments.
Also, putting your answer in Comments doesn't enter you into the contest. The ONLY way you can enter your guess is to find the drop down menu for "Show," and the drop down menu for "Show Date." AND be sure to click on 'Submit My Entry' after you make your choices. It can be a bit glitchy to find the spot to enter, but once on the the main 30 DoD page—the one with the artwork on top—it should show the song title for that day. You may need to scroll down below the Comments to find the entry option. I can’t say for sure cuz I already entered today and once you make your entry, that info disappears and it says “THANKS FOR ENTERING TODAY!”
Just poke around & you’ll find it!! Have fun!
Where is this magical entry form? It’s nowhere to be found!
Dear Mary, or anyone behind the scenes — fyi, my download file is 64kb and others have mentioned low bit files. It'd be great to see the usual 320kb on the rest if possible, and hopefully re-post this one at 320kb. NOT complaining—I'm very grateful!! Just letting you know.
What a nice surprise in my inbox this morning reminding me that 30 Days of Dead has begun again! I thought about it a couple weeks ago but promptly forgot.
Not too many options today so a nice start.
So happy that both setlist.com and archive.org are back up just in time too!
Good luck and enjoy everyone!
