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!
Yup I clear my mornings the entire month of Nov., weekends my family wonders what is wrong with me when I set up shop in the living room
So much fun
Has anyone here ever won/received calendar/end of year grand prize?
I won last year and didn’t get a calendar, still don’t know what day it is lol
Nailed it today! Been listening to alot of BTW’s from the Wolf Bros. such a beautiful song
Yo no extra hints/clues in the comments let it be fun and fair for all
Too busy for a thorough search of my own today but I found your comments were helpful. Took some work to verify using only my phone but I concur. :)
There are hundreds of opportunity's to purchase live dead recordings out there.
Why can't this just be what it is ?
Without spoillish complaints?
I would confirm your notion that some would PAY $1.00 per song for a pristine download.
But I hardly think that it would cover the cost of doing so.
I love the notion of 30 days of November being a non commercial release of unreleased treasures.
"One man gathers what another man spills"
I really enjoy November, because The 30 Days of Dead. I am so happy that it is back again for another year. This band gives so much back to us fans. I am so happy they have shared so much with us over the course of my lifetime.
Forever Grateful!
