"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.)

Any box set that was pre-ordered was not an immediate charge. It was at the time of shipping. Happened with both Spring 90s. Happened with Hampton, happened with Winterlands and I believe Europe as well. Key is pre-order. Not purchase at the time available for immediate shipping. If you were charged for a box at the time you ordered from this site it was not pre-order. As WarEagle points out though, other ventures are different including Ticketfly which charged immediately for Lesh Cap tix that were 8 month off. But here it has always been "not until shipping"

Who ends up getting #6500 anyway ?

I agree they totally misjudged this one in terms of physical sets. If you were asking for fan submissions in March of 2015 and knew since 2012, a career spanning set would go down. With most likely a few shows heavily requested and that were designated from the start. I'm guessing 10.12.84 was one. Is that the first release from 1984 ? It would have been a cool Dave's Pick, since I think it was on the original promo list, but it's in the box for $700. It will be interesting to see what the next Dave's Pick is. If it's another 70's pick, 80's folks may go nuts. Knowing they ponied up money in 2014 for a subscription after seeing that show mentioned on the promo list a few years ago hoping for it to finally show up after going through 14 of 15 with just one from after 1978. I think Rolling Stone mentions and I think it was also mentioned in the windy announcement video when the idea was pitched for the career spanning box jaws just dropped and big smiles were had. It definitely seems like most were overwhelmed from the start of the project. This ordering process fiasco better be the last gaffe for the remainder of this transaction. From a lot of angles Rhino botched this one up. It's nuts to think, like somebody else had pointed out. At the time of the announcement only 4 shows were revealed on the actual purchase page. And now a message reads they were scooped, so they announced all of them. If plans change that quick after sticking to a process. Then it's a sign to me that organization could have been better and I wonder really how well things were thought out. I would like the process to be a little more transparent. Put out a video of the product reveal.

30 Trips All Mucic Edition?

Without the box and stuff you could sell them for 6.5 dollars a disc which would make it 520 dollars.

Credit is not the same as debit and I used "credit" intentionally and for a reason. I know that can be different with debit cards. They definitely do operate differently on many issues.

Preorder

I have preordered every box release from the last few years. There is a hold to confirm card and then it is released. Costs are incurred in when it ships. That is the way it has worked every time and lists it as so on the FAQ section of this site.

Check your order

I would strongly urge everyone who made multiple orders yesterday because of the server problems to call Dead.net and confirm whether or not your unconfirmed orders went through. Despite some of the posts here, and despite an email last night from Dead.net indicating my order "probably" did NOT go through absent a confirming email and order # and advising me to re-order, an agent confirmed my order today by phone. She gave me an order # which I have confirmed on the site. Still no confirmation email but the order is there.

Jerry's thoughts

I always laugh to myself when folks think they know what Jerry would have to say about things today. Do you think in hind sight he might have cut back on the smack, Camels, milk shakes, etc.? Because unless he did, he would not be here today as is the case. So please. let's not make Jerry out to be THE oracle of the world. Thinking of him as some kind of God helped to drive him further into his isolated drug world. He was a great guy and a phenomenal guitarist, but he was human and had issues & foibles as we all do. Let him rest in peace and please don't tell me what he would have thought about the rest of the band going into business with Rhino. Key word there is business. Rhino does not do all of this just for the fun of it. This is the good old U.S. of A. where profit driven business is the norm. For 6 months folks here have been bitchin' about the lack of music released for the 50th. And you just HAD to know it was going to be huge. There is only one 50th celebration. So now it is announced and lots of folks are complaining. Could I afford the E'72 box when it came out at $450? No I could not at that time. But did I come on here and bitch? No way. Money was tight at that time for me but that didn't mean the box should not come out. You have 3.5 months to save up. Plus if you put it on your credit card and make monthly payments, even with interest, it will not be so bad. If you still think you cannot afford it, please do not piss on the folks who are buying it. Let them enjoy it and let's all continue to revel in all of the great music that is available to all of us from this great band. They are not super human beings. Just a bunch of guys who made some great music together. Rock on

So very nice

So so nice that we can finally put to rest that nasty rumor about the packaging -- it's not 80 discs in a zip-lok baggie after all!!

The Unveiling

Yeah.. I almost watched it. Stopped right after he opened the bottom to put the book back. I would rather undress this beauty myself, not watch someone else do it.

not shipping!

well it ain't shipping if you are an international customer and we are the ones who actually have to pay postage on this plus Rhino won't do (I asked) what they did with E72 steamer trunk and charge the customs upfront via UPS (who will happily do this) so that means when Rhino are finally bothered to send the last ones out it will sit in customs for week + I didn't mind the delay to box itself as they got it "just exactly perfect" but I really do mind paying more and then be stuck at the end of the line - this will be Rhino's doing not dead.net as before Rhino took over the dead operation treated international customers very well oh and before you say it is because I ordered it late I ordered this in the first 30 minutes of it being available sorry I just hate such blatant unfairness...

Aw, shucks lgreen!

lgreen: "sorry I just hate such blatant unfairness..." Did you make it to adulthood still thinking the world is fair? If you live a billion miles away from Rhino vs next door, it's going to take longer, and cost more, to get it to you. What isn't obvious about that?

One man!!

Bravo one man! Bravo.....well done......l.

Aw, shucks America first

I know it doesn't take as long to send something from California to Oregon than it does to send to England - but that process takes even longer if you send all the nearby (i.e. American orders out first) and only then send out the order to further away... also I (like all international purchasers) pay postage which was free in continental America - so the unfairness is the prioritisation of the American orders and that is "blatant unfairness"... anyway thank you for your kind message rbmumkin

even more Aw, shucks

According to an email from "customer services" which says "I'm looking at your order and it appears to be shipping around or about the middle of November. " I assume that is a mistake but who knows

if it makes you feel better

This American hasn't gotten a shipping notice.

ROCK & ROLL HOOCHIE KOO!!!!!! BOXZILLA HAS LANDED IN PHILADEPHIA

JUST GOT IT!!! Dancing In The Street In Northeast Philadelphia PA USA!!!!! It's Fucking Beatiful! Yes YES YES !!!!! Now regarding The "MIRACLE SCROLL"-> NOT Seeing Anything on the scroll that says MIRACLE on It! So if anyone gets a "MIRACLE" Scroll, PLEASE, PLEASE tell me WHERE IT SAYS MIRACLE ON THE SCROLL. How do you know you got a Miracle scroll? Where does It Say MIRACLE? (Also, I personally think it is Not Fair that some people will get a miracle scroll and others who PAID just as much as everyone else will not get a "MIRACLE" Scroll.) WE ALL SHOULD GET A PLAQUE NOT JUST A CHOSEN FEW! -> BOGUS! Whatever!!! I AM SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!! UPDATE TO MIRACLE SCROLL. Miracle Scroll E-MAIL States that if your SCROLL IS NOT NUMBERED-> YOU ARE A PLAQUE WINNER!!! So I answered my own question. I am probably too excited! Also, I did not get a receipt in the box. Anybody get a physical receipt included?

Shhhhhh!

That bogan in Australia is asleep. Everyone PM MaryE with a request that he be banned for his commercial activities!

One has to hope...

that our antipodean nemesis is not sleeping but hibernating for the next few months. Maybe he should get his own thread where he can continue endlessly posting the same message and where we don't have to be continually subjected to it. Is he not aware of the fact that if you post this sort of thing on eBay you only have to do it once as opposed to once every few hours.

Rhino hates Europeans

A second email from "Customer services" my box won't be dispatching till mid November so I guess that is true for all international orders... I will carefully restrain what I say to suggest this shows contempt for many people who love the Dead and pay [more] for these releases... I've tried emailing drrhino but nothing MaryE is there nothing that the real Dead.net can do?

Anyone get an actual shipping

Anyone get an actual shipping notice from dead.net? Or just UPS notices? Also, is anyone outside NC, VA, PA, MD, DE area receiving notices?

Rhino loves Europeans

I got a mail from Dead.net today and it says: "We are pleased to inform you that the beautiful sold out 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUN boxed sets are beginning to ship (yep, finally)!" and furthermore: "You will receive shipment confirmation email with a tracking number separately, once your order has left the warehouse." I live in Europe and it don't say nuthin' about November. Also, when it was ordered makes absolutely no difference to when it ships. Igreen - maybe Customer Service have taken umbridge at your bad attitude and have singled you out for special treatment. Just sayin', as our American friends like to say.

#2660 has landed in Illinois !!!!!!!

WOW. Everything is lavish. Solid wood with metal hinges. Red felt covered cubby holes on the bottom for the book and the scroll. The book's cover appears to be leather but even if it's faux leather, it's thick and has a skeleton and roses pressed into it on both sides. The two halves of the book have the pages reversed, so the historical essay half faces one way, then you flip it over to read the half with all the deadhead stories. The lid opens in which the 30 digipaks are lovingly caressed into cubby holes that hold groups of five digipaks each. Each show has its liner notes, tracks with timings, photos of newspaper clippings or band shots, etc, with a basic track list on the back. Nice thick gold 45 has its own sleeve on the inside of top cover. The box itself, with all its artwork is very cool. I will leave it to the more talented to describe and/or analyze the Deadland artwork itself. Oh, a ticket and backstage pass were placed inside the book. Unlike the ones in the 1990 boxes, these are NOT repros. These are original authentic tickets and backstage passes from their archives. My ticket is for 10/30/91 and pass from 6/21/93. The scroll, tied with a small leather strap, is quite long. It lists every song played (or close to it - I don't know what the parameters were for inclusion) and shows what years it was played in (with easily seen gaps). It is in chronological order, so songs played in 1965 are listed first, etc. At the top of your scroll is your box #. I think this is where it would say miracle if you got one. This is quite miracle enough for me. Thank you Deadland!!!!!!!

rhino should clarify their response to Europeans

Simonrob I got the same email you mention but that doesn't say when they plan to ship - I am not suggesting Europeans get special treatment just that they/international customers shouldn't have to wait 6 to 8 weeks longer than American customers... if it were the other way round and there were all being dispatched overseas and not to US there would be a ton of outrage!

Rick Derringer?

Rick is indeed an incredible guitarist...love Hoochie Koo, who can't love the raw rocknroll. Hang on Snoopy uh I mean Sloopy...nice I must have been a bad boy for the 50th...still no shipping email. That is alright. As I said yesterday I have had stuff arrive before the email. So no big deal. It would have been nice to track so that I could be home to ensure it isn't stolen. Because of the delay I had to cancel a Trip to the beach...boohoo. On the best of the bright side, maybe I will get mine tomorrow. The 26th anniversary of my last show. Also arriving within the week are Winterland 73, the 50th Anniversary of the Complete Annotated Grateful Dead Lyrics. Might not be around here as much; I know that upsets many...Also pre-ordered Blair's book "This is all a dream" which won't be here until November. Some great posts the last 15 hours or so...As far as today and tomorrow, think I will revisit the box with my last shows. Have only made it through a 3rd of E72, wanted to be at the halfway point. Thanks to Kate I picked up 3 DP's last week. Listened to (Number 9, number 9, number 9) Madison Square Garden Sept. 1990 last weekend. It was much better than I was expecting. Got pretty darn spacey during No MSG Jam into drums. Also got number 11 from 1972 and it was good as well. Way too much to absorb, I might have an official release stroke...

No shipping notice here yet.

Got the email about the Miracle scroll. All well and good, but I want my box already!!!!

Shipping to Europe

It normally takes two or two and a half weeks for me to receive orders shipped by Dead.net, not 6 to 8 weeks longer than American customers. What exactly should be clarified?

Shipping to Europe

Yes Simonrob I know it takes 2 weeks longer normally (for a Dave's Picks or similar) but what Customer Services are suggesting - which is what I am saying is unfair - is that they are not sending out all 6500 Boxes at the same time but have staggered it so that the American ones have already started dispatching (and being received) and the overseas ones (or at least some European ones) will go much later - presumably this is because they haven't assembled all 6500 boxes yet and/or the price of dispatch overseas is more than they thought and so have cut the cheapest deal they could which means we wait I don't think there is anything wrong in expecting all paying customers to be treated equally which plainly is not happening here... I am particularly surprised that a fellow overseas customer clearly thinks I am making too much of this...

Magic scroll

Oh and if someone overseas whose box isn't dispatched till mid November happens to have one of the 78 magic scrolls it will be too late to claim their gold record!

Shipping much later to Europe?

I just don't understand where you get the idea that boxes will be shipped to European customers "much later" than to American customers, or indeed that European shipments will occur in mid-November. I have not seen this stated, or even alluded to, anywhere. That not all 6500 boxes are being shipped at the same instant is not really surprising and I have no reason to have any negative feelings or expectations. I would imagine that it would take a few days for all the boxes to ship.

Has anyone gotten the USB yet?

I hear that the boxes have been shipped out, and some peeps even got it already. That is great to hear. Any word on the USB?

Are the CDs sealed in plastic wrap?

Shipping much later to Europe?

Simonrob, I asked Customer Services when my box would ship and they emailed to say: "I'm looking at your order and it appears to be shipping around or about the middle of November. " I assumed this was a mistyping so I asked them to confirm and they said: "I apologize for the inconvenience, but from our records it will not ship until the date that I sent you and I am very sorry for this. I'm also a music lover and I know how disappointed you must be, but we need to receive more from the manufacturer. Sir, at this point the product is sold out. If we get it in sooner than we will send it to you. Thank you for your patience and understanding." Thus I posted on here and - reasonably I think - reckon this is pretty shoddy!

UnBox Cutter

Kate I agree, what an infectious grin that guy in the unboxing video has. At least, I thought so, until I noticed the box cutter stashed in his shirt.

@Minas

No, they CD's are not sealed in plastic wrap. That would have been odd, though, don't you think?

Claney, Kate Boxcutter

LOL You know, a few of you, like Claney, Kate, Dantian, JimInMD (I'm sure there are a few others I should include) should be able to put an act together and go on the road. Dead Comic Crew.

Packaging

Very happy here - the box is a nice manageable size, and the individual show packages look perfect. And the ticket, pass - super nice touch. Some of the backstage passes I've seen are frame-able for sure. Can't wait. EDIT: Aw shucks wjon, thanks! I'll be here all week.

@wjonjd

I don't know, I didn't get the Europe '72 box, but I bought them individually and they were sealed, so I don't know what to expect. I'm selling my 80s and 90s so am curious if they're sealed. Thanks wjonjd, appreciate the feedback.

It's Here!!

I'm only 40 miles from Taylor, Pa. the box got here before the shipping email. Thank You!

@Minas

Oh, I didn't realize that about the E72 shows. I got the trunk, and they were not sealed. Hope you don't have to wait too long! This thing is freaking beautiful.

Box Bandits

For those of you who are concerned about not being home when the box arrives and having it stolen off your porch.. I can't imagine any shipping company, UPS, FEDEX, or USPS would drop a $700 package without requiring a signature.. right?

Sorry Profiteers..

Looks like you scalpers will have unsealed products to send out. Muah muah.

Nothing Left To Do But Smile, Smile, Smile

#0956 has arrived,never received a shipping email. Wasn't expecting it today nice Lil surprise. Beautiful box.

Anticipation

Ok....now seeing some luckies having received Boxzilla I can't help but wish upon that (Dark) Star...but up here in MA and no official "It's Shipped" email yet but also they have a flair for sending stuff out first and getting shipping notices after receipt. I need the 'stoop camera' to check my stoop!!! Cheers to those who have received, today is a magic day. EDIT: Negatory on stoop-age....fingers crossed for tomorrow as we head into a long weekend...here's to hoping!

Question for those who have received

Are there liner notes for the individual shows?

Left Coast

Are any of you lucky recipients on the West Coast?

YES!

Just received mine in Maryland. No shipping email after the one from dead.net. No signature required.

Receiving boxes before being told they shipped?

Wow, ok, now I can't wait to get home from work! Just my luck I'll keep having to wait. I live in Los Angeles you'd think we'd be one of the first to get the thing! Been an extremely rough couple of days, I could use a Miracle right about now!

email

Received the email everybody is talking about, though it still says backordered in my order status. Mail hasn't arrived here yet, so hopefully today will be the day. The following items are for sale for those who only want half: 1 half fresh pile of toenail clipping with bonus mung 1 half pair of holy underwear worn circa 1998-2002 1 old shoe 1 half of a coffee filter half filled with still wet grounds and bonus half egg shells in deluxe paper bag 1 half of a brown and black banana peel - fruit flies are extra

I call dibs on the shoe..

i'm missing one. Is it for the left or the right foot?

@Judysparty

Thanks for confirming what I thought, some people are never satisfied! I guess if you won a new car you would complain that the gas tank was not full Rock on

The Grand Tsetse

Hey Spacebro, the fruit flies are spoken for. Please adjust this for future postings, Thanks.

Shipping Company?

For those that have already received their box, what type of shipping was used? I am just praying that its not UPS mail innovations or FedEx smartpost. It takes about 3 weeks for anything shipped that way to get to me here in Alaska. Thanks!

It's here

Mine arrived in Cumberland, MD. It was shipped by ups ground. My 9/10/91 case is a lil smashed on the corner but rather than that, all looks good!! I can't seem to find the issue number on the box....

Size?

Could someone who has received the box take out a tape measure and give us the outside dimensions of the box? I am trying to plan where I will be displaying this. Rock on

# 1042

Has arrived in Philly!!! It's WOOD and the wood is GOOD!!!!! The limited number is on the scroll. It's a beautiful box set TPTB have truly out done themselves, way way beyond any of my expectations. A GRATE way to celebrate the only the band that does what they do, did what they did & still are a very important of MY life, the GRATEFUL DEAD!!!!!! To: EVERYONE who made this happen, THANKS YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!!

I take it all back - thanks Dr Rhino

Just had an email from Dr Rhino and international orders are shipping tomorrow... so I can go back to counting down till it arrives Suddenly the day seems so much better

To all the people receiving their copy of boxzilla....

.....Bastards! :-) Can only hope mine is on the way, no word yet :-(
