Grateful Dead

What a beautiful transition into this 30 Days of Dead and the gift of hanging with you all once again. Welcome back family!

Fare thee well, dear Phil. We were so blessed to have had you here for so long. Such a sweet happy heart! Feeling tender, while smiling at the same time.

Lovely start to what has become my favourite time of the year....thanks to all involved

Another Great start to 30 Days
Unfortunate the low bitrate

so excited to b back again this year
have had a rough time with health and life
now a month of some thing to get excited about every day.

i miss you phil. may the four winds blow you safely home.

Hello everyone and look forward to this time each year. Thank You to all involved. Going to try to beat last year and get more then half guesses correctly.

Glad to be back for all the fun. Will have to wait until later to dive in. Happy that the Archive is back up or I'd be sunk!
It’s Friday, 30 DoD has started, and Dave’s 52 is scheduled for delivery. It’s like the planets have aligned or something!

Here we go!!!!!!!!

Let the fun begin!

Pretty sure my dad was at this show…

Posting here to try to bump the guess off the first page

Please do not post your guess.

My guess...6/11/1991

Please do not post your guess here. We all want to play.

124kbps. Disappointing.

Let's keep the guesses to the official form!!!

Luv this groovy stuff from the vault
Keep em A- comin' !!

where is the official form?

…and I accessed from the email, too. Help please!

I got a bit rate of 128 ?

You may need to work just a little bit harder to find this one.
Very grateful to be Playin' the 30 Days of Dead again.

RIP Phil. You will be missed by many, but your music will be cherished for generations to come. By the Grace of God, keep your big wheel turning on the next road of existence...

A lovely way to start the best thing about November! Looking forward to spending the next 30 days with all of you.

Can’t get Phil off my mind this windy autumn morn. Fare thee well, old friend.

Can't believe this is the 15th year we've been playing this game!

Just like last year, the first day's file is a lower bit rate than the standard 320kbps (mine was 64). A new 320 file was up by the afternoon last time, so I'll try DLing it again later today while crossing my crazy fingers. Regardless of bit rate, great choice to lead off the month!

Thanks Dave for giving us an easy one to ease back into it. This is, I believe, my third year doing 30 Days and I thoroughly enjoyed the first 2 years so this is something to look forward to in what otherwise appear to be dark times.

And, I sincerely want to note: all love and respect to the mighty Phil Lesh!!!

Back in the swing, had been looking forward to it for a couple of weeks. Gonna keep the set list but online versions of this little duo are of much higher quality.

They liked to have these 2 segments pop up post space but not always in this order. Found a ton of the reverse out there. The first 30 seconds have these great post drums moments from Jerry that I love. I had many 80s tapes where he played similar runs to the first 30 seconds or so here. Just getting it warmed up... like we all are here today! Welcome!

Hint: A couple of songs from Bob's and Jerry's respective 1972 solo albums, never recorded in the studio by the Grateful Dead

I don't understand this hint. What about the "couple of songs"?

The download bitrate was only 124.. it has always been 320 in the past

Thanks to all the team that makes this possible every year.

As a UK based Deadhead I cannot enter the comp, but that doesn't detract from enjoying the daily challenge of identifiying date and place.

Now where did I leave my copy of Deadbase........

Man, every year really is getting shorter... great to be back.

RIP Phil Lesh - legend - you brought me much joy.

Don't be a jerk please

Welcome Back, everyone! Looking forward to another fun year. Sad about Phil of course. A box of rain will ease the pain, and love will see you through.

The "couple of songs" you are asking about are Playing in the Band and The Wheel.
Edit: And the hints aren't always actual "hints," like this one.

can't find where to vote. tried entering from the email and just the web site, but still don't see it...

I did not always gravitate to the Phil Zone but when I did I danced my ass off. Rest Easy Philly, and Thank You for a REAL GOOD TIME. This is a great Nov tradition to keep the community vibrant, Thank You dead.net.

In all the previous years of the 30 Days in November the downloaded files are 320 kbps mp3 files. The first download for 2024 is 128 kbps. Can we get 320 kbps files? Thanks!
