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!
In my 9 years of doing this, I've never seen anyone put an answer in the comments. Now I've seen 2 in two days. Reflective of the state of the country...
half way through 30 Days and still so called 'newbies' can't figure out the rules...how sad
how helpless many people are that they won't even scroll down to the BOTTOM OF THE PAGE...ya know...poke around???
Maybe the moderator will include directions next year for the handicapable..or just drop the comments and avoid all the whining, altogether
Hints have always been part of the game. I appreciate a clever or mysterious hint. The date of show is a no no. I have been here since the beginning so please post clever hints
Well took every bit of the fun out of it.
Scratch that. Some slack granted for wrong answer.
you gave a hint while telling someone to not give hints
Edit: what I meant to say was "you gave an answer while telling someone not to give an answer" in this chat........everybody just relax, we got you all night long (Harpur College)
