    ANNOUNCING DAVE’S PICKS 2025 SUBSCRIPTIONS AND DAVE’S PICKS VOLUME 53

    "As we enter our 14th year of the Dave's Picks series, heading into Volumes 53-56 in 2025, most days we feel we're just getting started. Every volume of the series is still just as exciting for us as the first few releases in the series back in 2012, and we hope you continue to get as much joy out of listening to them as we get from producing them. One of the greatest thrills we get from working on them is the flexibility to go where the music takes us in making the selections. For 2025, Volume 53 has been selected and is in the can, and we've just entered production on Volume 54 (and the subscribers' Bonus Disc!), but beyond that, it's a blank slate, and we're spending countless hours listening to determine what's to come for Volumes 55 and 56 in the second half of 2025. After the great variety we saw in 2024 (1985 x 2, 1977, 1971, and 1983), we focused on great variety again in 2025. Come along for the ride! If you've never subscribed, this would be a great year to start, as we head into the Grateful Dead's 60th year. There's plenty of room on the bus for everyone!"

    For some of you, it’s a done deal. For those of you still on the fence or new around these parts, we’ll lay it all out right here, right now. Dave’s Picks subscribers score all four numbered, limited-edition releases (totaling a minimum of 13 CDs) featuring previously unreleased complete live Grateful Dead shows. You’ll also get the subscription exclusive bonus disc, which remains one of the most highly sought-after collectibles we release, and free U.S. shipping. Subscriber bonus discs are not released outside of this offer. As always, early bird subscribers can nab a sub at $99.98 (regular pricing will be $119.92).

    Dave's Picks 2025 will once again be capped at 25,000 copies of each release. Your best bet is to subscribe, sit back, and relax as each show is delivered to your door quarterly.

    Have subscribed since the beginning when they were 1st offered on the final year of the Road Trips series.

    1976 has some interesting song placements within the sets unique to that year, which to me is always an interesting listen. The Cobo show from the 30 Trips box is a good one, as Im sure this will be as well. Dave picks many shows that are new to me and this is one of those.

    2025 wishlist -
    - hit on something from 1991
    - spring 89 (box would be awesome)
    - 88 , not nearly enough released from this year
    - fall 89/December 89/winter 90 box of the multitracks
    - Fall/winter 90
    - Blues For Allah 50th with Lindley Meadows show from 75 (the last unreleased 75 show)
    - Something from anytime between 68 thru 70
    - More bluray releases

    Was contemplating ala carte this year but with a 1976 to start then what the hell. That's what money is for, lol. My excuse would have been running out of storage space. A lame and embarrassing excuse I thought. But not having to scramble 4 times to go ala carte is just peace of mind as well.

DAaaaa~YO!
When Dave announce Fifty-Four
Bet it be a Banana Box Show!

My prediction is in. A 1970 pick prior to Bear's bust on 7/15/70.
Although some Autumn '70 would be good too. I dunno, maybe September 1969?

Those would be very welcome additions to my collection. I sure hope they get released. As I said before, the 12/19 HCS is still one of my favs. The day before show is pretty good, too. As I recall, it had a strange warp or drop out near the end of WRS. If they could fix that it would be amazing. Those 8/72 BCT shows are also top notch. I'm guessing those that remain unreleased will be a box set at some point.

They, {vault keepers} should rerelease them first few early Dick's picks as full shows. Preferably on disc but maybe on Lp too I guess. I'm sure this has been posted about before but I haven't read about it in awhile so here it is!

And as I type this, I'm realizing the answer...

Does Monsieur TheBest reveal the second DaP before the early bird special closes? I feel like that used to happen...

Baby, I felt burned after I talked myself into believing that the 2024 subscription would include 9.20.1970 with bonus disc of 9.19 and filler of 10.30 from the revelatory seaside chats...

Physical media space is getting hot, the time has come to weigh these things...

I haven't bought any Daves Picks this year, as none of them caught my fancy. I'm hoping they don't release 9/19/70 and 9/20/70 as a Pick with bonus disc. Not intending to subscribe, I'd miss the bonus, and if I do, I'm likely to be paying for shows I don't want. And I can' t be bothered trying to sell them.

I hate to be disputatious now we are all getting along so well, but I'll be glad when that Trump logo - avatar - whatever you call it - is ditched. That in itself political.

Since we'll be waiting until May 2025 to (possibly) listen to some groovy stuff, go to YOU TOOB and type
Zep 6 28 70 Bath. You're in for a treat. BRING IT ON HOME! DAZED AND CONFUSED!

Great footage! In the pouring rain.

It usually rained at British festivals. The soles of my shoes came off at Reading due to ploughing through the mud.
The last cd I played was also Led Zeppelin - "How The West Was Won". An absolute stonker -the highlight for me is the epic "Whole Lotta Love" with a rock n' roll blues medley in the middle.
