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!
Has anyone determined if these wav files are of superior quality compared to the typical 30 Days mp3 files?

What a lovely present to wake up to this morning. I may have been in the ball park, but I got lost in left field, picking dandelions, until I recalled a story about this show, and then I went crossed-eyed and struck gold. Lucky like a blind squirrel some days.
same. an awful lot of hoop jumping only to be left in the dark regarding the reason I signed up.
now I found the entry calendar, only to realize you gotta scroll backwards for 10 minutes to enter a simple date. Something else..... oh look. prove you're STILL not a robot.
