    "When we began discussing audio projects to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Grateful Dead back in 2012, we knew we wanted to do something completely unprecedented. We could think of nothing more exciting or ambitious than a career-spanning overview of the band's live legacy focused on what best tells the story: complete concerts. Our first criterion was the very best live music to represent any given year in the band’s history. We wanted to make sure that there were not only the tent-pole shows that fans have been demanding for decades but also ones that are slightly more under the radar, but equally excellent. For those who listen to the entire box straight through, chronologically, the narrative of the Grateful Dead's live legacy will be seen as second to none in the pantheon of music history." - David Lemieux

    We are more than pleased to announce the Grateful Dead's most ambitious release ever: 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUN. Available as both an 80-disc boxed set and a custom lightning-bolt USB drive, the collection includes 30 unreleased live shows, one for each year the band was together from 1966 to 1995, along with one track from their earliest recording sessions in 1965. Packed with over 73 hours of music, both the boxed set and the USB drive will be individually numbered limited editions.

    The 80-disc boxed set is individually numbered and limited to 6,500 copies, a nod to the band’s formation in 1965. Along with the CDs, it also includes a gold-colored 7-inch vinyl single which bookends the band’s career. The A-side is “Caution (Do Not Stop On Tracks)” from the band’s earliest recording session in 1965 with the B-side of the last song the band ever performed together live, “Box Of Rain” recorded during their final encore at Soldier Field in Chicago on July 9, 1995.

    The box also comes with a 288-page book that features an extensive, career-spanning essay written by Nick Meriwether, who oversees the Dead archives at the University of California, Santa Cruz, along with special remembrances of the band submitted by fans. Also included is a scroll that offers a visual representation of how the band’s live repertoire has evolved through the years.

    The USB drive version* will be shaped like a gold lightning bolt with the Grateful Dead 50th anniversary logo engraved on the side. The drive includes all of the music from the collection in both FLAC (96/24) and MP3 formats and is an individually numbered limited edition of 1,000 copies. Digital version of the book also included on USB.

    Shows will NOT be sold individually on CD. This release is sure to sell out quickly so pre-order your copy today and stick around as we will be revealing a mighty fine selection of music, art, and much, much more right here.

    (Looking for a smaller 50th Anniversary commemorative keepsake? September 18th will see the release of a four-CD version of the collection titled 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUN: THE DEFINITIVE LIVE STORY 1965-1995. More on that here.)

Time to check the bank account and find out where my nearest Red Cross is, so I can donate about 700 worth of blood. Hahah just kidding. Just gotta find where I put my credit card. This one is mammoth and will sit along nicely with the other 80 discs I just scored.

good thing you dont have to pay to watch your seaside chats,, the audio is awful, a little thing called wind makes it worse than listening to an awful audience tape. For somebody who is always picky about sound quality, ya might want to get those things fixed, so its not painful to watch

It seems like this would be an ultimate Dave's Picks with extras, so the price is actually cheaper than 7 years worth of Dave's picks.. or just about the same cost. Definetly worth the cash. This maybe one to pick up an extra copy and keep sealed. Crazy to think that, but this one trumps any Dave's picks going for 200-500 per 3 discs on the secondary market.

This is the big announcement I was hoping, but didn't actually believe, you guys would make! The price is intimidating at first, but it Does break down to less than $10 a disc, and I'm sure it will come with some real goodies!

Four things:1) This is only 7 more CDs than the Europe 72 box but costs another $250?!? WTF? 2) The USB version with no CDs costs the same as the physical version?!? WTF? 3) I am assuming since it says specifically says these shows will not be sold individually as CDs that they will be offering them as digital downloads. 4) You can already see the list of shows by looking at the 4 disc version on iTunes.

I can definitely say no to this one. While interesting, especially the early Pigpen era shows and some of the Brent era, there is absolutely no way this family guy can rationalize this one to the Mrs. Wish they would do some a la carte shows, but there you have it. I find this release a bit unfortunate-- only 7,500 people will have these shows in legitimate format (not copied). A few hot shows are going out of circulation for the masses. I gotta believe something like 9/18/87 would sell a lot of copies a la carte. They just went too big and priced many folks out. Alas, there is always Dave's Picks.

I knew something that was not affordable was coming our way but jeez. Tickets are sky high and so is this box set. Sorry I am not a hippie that turned yuppie. I am a gen x that is struggling to obtain the american way. lol. Any way why not break it down per decade on cd format. Another suggestion is to drop it down to down loadable format per show.(minus all the glitter and box) To all those that can afford it get it. I am sure you will enjoy. Well deserved and I am sure its beautiful. Peace.

Only the band themselves will be able to afford this. It's also very greedy to not split up the shows so people of limited means, which is basically their entire fanbase, can cobble this together over time.

My wife would kill me ten ways to Sunday if I even thought of it. lol I made a suggestion up above. It seems like there is no way to celebrate the dead at all this year in an affordable way. I also thought that they would be releasing more shows and trinkets this year. oh well rock on.

There is not a chance that I can get wife approval for this one... Just goes to show how shamefully out of touch this corporation is with its fan base - seriously, a limited edition $700 box set in this economy. What a sick joke.Now we have months of torture while we see what shows are revealed. Great.

Yeah, same as seven years of Dave's Picks, but it is far easier for the budget for most folks to put up $100 per year. I will stick to that.

Why not run a individual pre-order sale for a short time and then they will know how many extra copies of each show they will need to produce.

It is worth noting that the info above says individuals shows will not be sold on CD. However, the possibility of individual shows being available as downloads still remains. "Never Trust a Prankster."

No way can I afford this and the wife would kill me too! I gotta agree with someone earlier mentioning how all the 50th stuff is so expensive. 700$ is just too much money right now especially with no advanced notice whatsoever for the presale. Thanks Dave nice to see that the show will not be available individually on CD or electronically. Gotta say this one stings, even more so than not being able to get a ticket to a single Santa Clara or Chicago show. Please make these available for individual purchasing or electronic download. Seriously.

There it is. There are some really nice shows in there. Some fine 80s shows too. I also can't afford to drop $700 on dead shows. That is not in the family budget. Why not make some sort of pre-order for individual shows and print more?? I gotta say I find this all pretty sad and nauseating. Everything that's come down for 2015 has been so high cost. This is so exclusive. This is one more run at the money. I think I need a break from dead.net

I hope they are sold individually at 24/96. That would suck if the only way to get them in that quality is via the $700 USB chip. Here is a great place for all the setlists: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~./gdead/setlists.html I am so looking forward to the 83/84/85 shows.

Hard to make it out from all that wind but I believe Dave said that for $700 & if you order it during pre-sale it gets hand delivered to your door by either Bob, Phil, Micky or Bill. After the presale you get Donna. In all seriousness I have that same feeling of rejection that I got when my Fare thee well envelope was returned. It's going to be epic yet most probably out of reach. Wish it was closer to $500, I'll have to settle for the comp.

Good point... appears to be catered to the "Dom Perignon" crowd ;) for sure not the Joe Six-pack crowd :)

If anyone wants to order an extra CD set I'd be looking to trade an original Musitronics Mutron III pedal with the box, a sealed Daves Picks Vol. 4 and/or some amount of cash in to sweeten the deal. Let me know if we can work something out!

Since the 50th kicked off, I have read many posters here who wanted / predicted a box with 30 shows, one from each year. Now here it is and many are complaining about the price. I have always said, be careful what you ask for. I mean, what did you expect? 80 discs was going to be a lot of coin no matter how you cut it. It is too rich for my wallet, but I am sure it will sell out and I am sure it will be awesome. Rock on

because i can't justify spending $700 for the entire box set. i'm sure it will sell out eventually, and perhaps someday it will sell for a lot more than $700 on ebay. unfortunately, i must pass on this release. ----

those managing the grateful dead aren't fools. like the koch brothers they realize their product has dwindling appeal, and they just want to strike while the iron is still hot. those who love the grateful dead are a dying breed. its sad, but true. the grateful dead are just trying to cash in, and maximize profits while they still can. its the same reason the koch brothers buy elections. we all know fossil fuels will eventually lose out to clean energy. its just a matter of time. ----

i agree, many did predict this... but, others where hoping maybe the 30 show crowd would be wrong... or at least, there would be something a little more manageable for the rest of us who couldn't do 700 dollars and there still might be! the year is still half-young

Phil, I really hope you don't serve Dom ice cold. What a waste, my friend. Anyway, 11/14/73 not being a future Dave's Pick hurts. Great shows on this set.

Thanks to all the users for years of expression. Good to know there are others out there like me who love our band dearly. I'm a first time post. Didn't get on bus until 1980 but rode it well over 300 times. 35 years of deadicated support. I love my extensive audio collection from all eras. Gotta say though I'm disappointed in the $700. box. Granted 30 unreleased shows is fantastic and well priced. We know the band can blow us away. They didn't have to prove it so abruptly. Wish they would have done increments of 5 years released 6 times throughout the year or something similar. Oh well, just another picky DeadHead. Enjoy and see you at Levi.

You know - I thought the Spring 1990 (The Other One) set would sell out, and yet, a year later, there are still boxes available. I think its silly (and a loss of viable income for band members) to not have these shows available for digital download.

Dave says "a couple" are mixed from multi-track and seems to unintentionally spill the beans that it is two. My guess is the 69 and 89 shows. Very excited about this release!

I did it... yes, reluctantly, I did it. My wife would absolutely kill me if she knew, but I have until Sept 18 to worry about that... As a release...I guess I had to do it so I___ (I'm drawing a blank here) I guess I would have felt bad if I missed the bus and heard how great a ride it was... so now I'm on a parked bus waiting until Sept to start moving! I hope it's worth it...you guys really didn't have to price it so high... you could have at least carved it up into 4 parts (FWIW).
