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!
All three songs were played at this concert. MISSISSIPPI HALF-STEP, BLACK-THROATED WIND, and BIRD SONG

happy day to all
enjoy the search
would post my current batting average so far but this too embarrassing.
today will help
Just logged on. Just started listening. Read the comments. Nothing to scathing on there. For a calendar. So my question is " Is not having Uptown Toodeloo a clue or question or typo?" For a band that was anti authoritarian we sure are sticklers round these parts.
...that was magical
Today's selection may be obvious to some but we are gettin' a little loose with the hints here.
