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!
Happy when I can find the shows before I head to work. Then I know my music line up that will be playin in my office. Today it will be this show and the second half of yesterday's show.
Mistakes happen, thanks for being quick about getting the info off the chat
Answers are not posted in the chat even if they are wrong or right .... people want to hunt for the shows.
Thanks and peace
I was at a Davie Bowie show this night, one thing led to another (as they often do) and I ended up in the hoosegow. While waiting for morning I met several heads who were at this show, had some great conversations, heard some amazing stories and this experience ignited something inside me....not long after I was on the Bus for Life.
