"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.)

Complete Recordings - Great Prices

I got a copy of Dick's Picks 30 at a great price after someone here mentioned seeing them online, so I thought I would return the favor to people who may be in need. Here are three great prices on box sets. Winterland June 1977: Complete Recordings $299. All others are in the $600 range. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Grateful-Dead-Winterland-June-1977-HDCD-Box-Set… Europe 72 with trunk $377 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Grateful-Dead-Europe-72-complete-recordings-non… Winterland 1973 Complete Recordings $120 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Grateful-Dead-Winterland-1973-Complete-Recordin…

Stoked about 30 Trips

I'm stoked to get my ears around 30 Trips Around The Sun. Love the idea of a show per year. I usually reside somewhere between 1968-78 with 72-74 as my favorite period. I love the improvisational monster jams focused around The Other One, Dark Star, Playin', Eyes, Weather Report not to mention the primal Live Dead jams. Love a good Scarlet-Fire and the Blues For Allah material live is always a hoot. That being said my 80's-90's ventures are usually 80-81' and 89'. I have The Warlocks and love it but skipped out on Spring 90' boxes... but figure I'll get to those soon enough. So I'm looking forward to diving into these 80'-90's shows in 30 Trips, and heck, maybe I'll see what I've been missing. I'm particularly pumped about 67' Shrine, 68' Greek, 69' Dream Bowl, 72' Waterbury, and 73' San Diego among others. I mean what other band releases so much great quality sounding live music for there fans? The quality of the Grateful Dead live archival releases over the past 20 years is completely unparalleled. Perhaps only the box sets and live releases of Miles Davis even comes close and that's fairly distant at best. If Pink Floyd released only a smidgeon of quality live shows from the 70's I'd be super stoked but so far just the Wembley 74' stuff. Frank Zappa releases quite a lot of live material when he was alive and the vault releases have been great but no one compares to the Dead releases. And I'm grateful for it. It's like Christmas every few months when a Dave's Picks arrives or Road Trips before that. Europe 72' is my favorite box followed by Winterland 73'. Like I said I'll get to Spring 90' in due time. So keep us guessing and keep em' coming!

80sFan 11/4/77

I checked out a couple of tunes from your link. Definitely a respectable version, and I like that you can hear all of the audience enthusiasm at various points (i.e. clapping on Bertha, cheering after the Brown-Eyed Women solo, which incidentally, is one of the best live versions ever in terms of Jerry's guitar solo). The instruments are definitely louder in the official version, particularly Keith's keyboard work and the drums; these two "mix factors" contribute heavily to the aggressive "rock" feel of the 11/4 show, as experienced in the official version. But yeah, it's always a good idea to own another show featuring the late great Keith Godchaux ;-) PM your address if you want and I'll send it to you.

Re: Keithfan and Bliss

Yes, KF, there are certainly noticeable differences in sound that are more than the mix itself. What a fabulous collection of venues on that tour, that's the difference. When I travel abroad.. Instead of being a typical nerdy tourist and hitting hard rock cafe's or whatever.. I usually try to pick a theme.. like lets hit all the big castles in Germany or hey, lets hit all the churches where they off'd people in the Angels & Demons movie in Italy.. so my big not so eminent Europe trip will hit all the theatre's they played at. Check them out, great history and some terrific venues. That's what's contributing to the rich sound and variations from night to night. Places like the Concertgebouw and the like. There's a wealth of information on the acoustics of these venues. You may have come to the party late, but you did your homework. Bliss.. one of the ways I cycle through a lot music is on road bike rides and kayaking. Lots of fun and you get a workout to boot. I think you get the big picture this way, overall vibe of the show and jams. You also get a nice progression of growth through a tour/year/decade that way. You do miss minute details like best version of a song on a tour which KF seems to specialize in.. anyway, you are not alone in listening habits.

The AUD of 11/4/77 https://archive.org/details/gd77-11-04.moore.jupile-weiner.15208.sbeok… Curious how it stacks up against DP12? I'm really into this version so i'm feeling (slightly) better about having been shut out of the official release!

listening to the band

Keith-Fan, Your post raises the question of how we go about enjoying this abundance of officially released riches. I listen to a show per day, usually in the background while working. A lot just sort of floats over me this way and I'm often unable to get a "best version" sort of feel, but do get to enjoy the overall sonics of a show. i'll be working away with the music drifiting over me and suddenly tune in and think, "whoa - how the hell did they get out here" ... Work-related listening has been random years/tours as the mood strikes. I have no favorite era. Everything offers something different and worthwhile depending on the mood. I listen to a lot of other music (funk, jazz, soul, rock from all eras), so it's not like I can engage in the deadicated listening a lot of these Dead shows deserve. (seeing RUSH twice next week - and am on a huge related listening kick in preparation -- seeing them is very much a cult-band family reunion kind of phenomenon not unlike the vibe at a Dead show - just a lot nerdier and less trippy). With the 30 Trips Box, I'm going to listen to a show per day on headphones while cycling. Chronologically. After, I'm going to listen to everything I have (pretty much all official releases) in chronological order the same way, ideally while riding and skiing. This is a wonderful way to consume release, as the music evolves and changes organically, in terms of both the playing and song choices. I've managed to do this once in the past, and it took the better part of a year. Psyched to do it again. Long live the Dead.

From Version to Version

It's only since I lost myself in the Grateful Dead Narnia that I've started to appreciate listening to the entire show. I came late to the Dead picnic, and while I saw them a couple of times before Jerry died, I didn't get "into" them until years later. With other bands (The Who, Yes, Rush), I would take the best live versions of songs and make a playlist. It seemed the prudent thing to do since there were only a few live versions of any particular song. The Dead is a different beast altogether, so it took some time to appreciate what they're up to from gig to gig, and clearly cherry picking the best versions is an impossible endeavor, as I end up with nothing on the cutting room floor. That being said, old habits die hard, and there's always a mental comparison going on in my head, hence the post about MSHSU Toodeleedoo. There's no doubt 9/3/77 is the best version for the jam, but not necessarily the bridge to Rio Grandio. And so it goes, there are many "best" versions. Muleskinner, check out Sugar Magnolia from 4/24 - this is thee version of thee song that pulled me in, never to return. I was at a home poker game when my buddy put on Rockin' The Rhein, and immediately caught the fever. 5/18 is close, despite a rare vocal flub where Bob Weir seems to forget he's onstage performing with the Grateful Dead. It's not that there's anything wrong with the 20 other versions from E72, it's just the perfect storm of nuances that come together on 4/24 (the guitars are mixed so smoothly for maximum "groove" effect, the piano is present, the solo is smooth and sweet, the drum fill at the....drum fill part is perfect, the blossoms are blooming, etc). Also wondering if anyone has noticed some of the subtle differences in overall sound from show to show on E72? For example, 4/24 seems to have more reverb than other dates (I don't know if reverb is the right word - it's an echo-like quality I catch on this one - a good thing to my ears); Amsterdam 5/10 also seems to have this quality. 4/11 and 4/29 seem to have a tad less fidelity and more tape hiss than other dates - not a big deal, I just turn the treble up a little bit. 4/26 has magnificent sound and low tape hiss, but Pigpen's organ is a bit lower than other dates (not sure how the fact that it was mixed for Hundred Year Hall plays into this). Heck even the comparison between Steppin' Out versions of the same tunes demonstrates significant differences in the mixing (for example crisper snare drum, compare 5/24 Cold Rain & Snow, or higher piano levels on some songs - check out 4/11 Brokedown Palace). Anyway, I spend waaaay too much time listening to this stuff, but I did earn a PhD in Europe '72, so it wasn't without merit.

any landings in...

CT yet?

Lost In Space

Well, I sit about 100 miles east of Taylor PA patiently awaiting UPS's arrival at my office, while I read about deliveries elsewhere in my general vicinity and farther afield (MD, IL). I got the shipping update email but my order status still says its backordered with estimated shipping date of 10/31. It does seem that there is no rhyme or reason to the sequence in which they are shipping based on the fact that a couple of the recipients posting here ordered the box after I did. But that's OK, I'm just glad they started shipping finally and it's fun reading all the giddy posts...like kids in a candy store. And I have plenty of good tunes to listen to until the box lands here. I'm a patient man.

Nothing in ma

No email about shipment, no shipping info., no emailed links for unveiling yikes !! Only gotten multiple emails about delays and shipping address confirmations. Item still says backorder and I placed it on day 1, hour two so now I'm getting worried. No news is still good news right?

USB has not gone out, according to someone at Dead.net

I just got off the phone with Dead.net, and they said that the USB chips are actually scheduled to go out at the end of the month while the box set is shipping now. Wonder why the USB chip is taking so long.

I should be...

...sleeping right now. I work third shift. I guess I'll go downstairs and sleep on the couch in case UPS knocks on the door.

Sixtus and LowSpark

Sixtus has it right. Congrats to those who have the box in hand!!! LowSpark: as far as taking the box off my front step, I know it will be the 90 year old woman next door. She is always peeking in my window wonderin, what is going on in there. Edit: LowSpark, you get to bed. Feel for you as I would be freaked out to work 3rd with Christmas Eve starting at 4pm

Thanks Minusmorgal(or whatever)

Got this pleasant message in my box: "you said: Sorry Profiteers.. Looks like you scalpers will have unsealed products to send out. Muah muah. I say: you deserve to be buried under medical bills and to rely on selling CDs to make ends meet, but I wouldn't wish that on anyone, so I forgive you for your malicious intent. But you should have a kinder attitude toward others, especially considering that selling a product is a legal activity, and one that your country is built on. Did you ever consider that one of the generous people on this board who answer your stupid questions all day long might be a re-seller of CDs? You're all class pal, take that ridiculous suit off." Because nobody else has financial woes, apparently. Oh, and I'm wearing athletic shorts and a t-shirt. I guess that would indeed make a ridiculous suit.

#0412

I found my number!! To all you folks waiting, this box is cool. I'm spinning the Midnight Hour from 7/3/66 with Pig screaming ALRIGHT! through the Polks. Life is good...:)

FYI

I didn't receive a shipping notice

Like everyone here, I am so

Like everyone here, I am so looking forward to receiving the box! I warned the guardian of my building a big parcel was sent to me as it takes for me in case I will not be home for delivery.A deadhead in Paris, very excited as a kid at Christmas.

no class

lol - I didn't want to embarrass you by posting that comment, but it appears you have no shame. Or maybe you do, as you didn't publicize your response. Like I said class act all the way. Selling 17 CDs from an era I don't care for from my box set and letting people bid on them to decide their worth is not gauging anybody, and folks in fact were appreciative that I broke up a box set. The irony was, I thought I would reach out to you to burn you some '73 stuff before I realized what a turd you are.

Alain

Been loving your posts the last few weeks, we are for the most part a giddy bunch. Question to all, how much space do you think 6,500 of these boxes takes up? I mean if they ship 1,000 a day, that is pretty impressive. I am sure the Europeans get a pallet or two. Then thousand+ (of boxes, maybe 64 boxes/pallet)to the West of the Mississip. I still bet 50% are in the NE corridor...as even Grateful Dead called it deadhead alley (Boston to Washington D.C.). Edit 1) So maybe the U.S. gets 5000 boxes (?) Europe 1,000 - Aussie 250 and maybe the rest of the world 250? Hmmm I would be absolutely interested in that data.

Landing in CT

No shipping yet notice from dead.net. But just got one from UPS my choice. Looks like it's landing in CT on Friday. Can't wait

Gary

Thank you, Gary. It will be a real celebration when I receive the package. I vividly remember the emotion and the excitement I had upon receipt of Europe '72. My friend had filmed me as I opened the box and I went out in all riches.

+

waiting in Montigny-le Bx , aussi !!!!! Hey, now !!!

+

So how many Aussies do you think are on board. Has to be close to 500. Just a WAG (wild a** guess).

AAUGH!!!

No box set for me today...sigh. It's been tough catching up on all the posts - did anyone mention if the sound quality is better than the streaming shows? (and they sounded pretty good). On a side note - this is a happy day, I would encourage everyone to refrain from antagonistic posts.

Keith

So far only one post on anything about the sound, that was an hour ago, He was listening to Midnight Hour from 66.

#4294 I think Arrived

NO Shipping email showed up on the porch they are NOT packaged like the DaPseries. The pictures or a video DOESN'T DUE IT JUSTICE.

# 6193 arrived in Bethlehem PA ...

@ 5:00 PM ET EXCELLENT! I AM VERY HAPPY! THANK YOU JACK (or at least your estate, may you rest in peace) SPOILER ALERT! Here are the dimensions of the box in US measurements (sorry Alain & others who use metric): 13.75 x 9.25 x 8.50 1st up: 1966

Boxzilla

Never got a shipping notification but Boxzilla just arrived on the east coast in MD. Time to get down to business. Refrained from the streams!

Here's one for One Man

for those needy and grateful heads who cant afford the box and only want one or two shows - the last FEW shows and the LOWEST price i'll ever go - each show $43US by paypal (inc postage from oz) - get in touch asap to reserve. Also if anyone wants 93 94 and 95 shows - 120 for the bundle email me gilmourstephen@hotmail.com remaining shows: 68 82 83 90 92 93 94 95

still wonder

Who wins the Contest. How many remained white as snow...

Now

Getting ready to transfer the discs to jewel cases and then packing this thing back up until I figure out how to display

Gary & All Other Fockers

Gary thanks for the update on the sound bro. Speaking of '66, that Monster song was a nice little 60s ditty, I'm looking forward to giving it the "crank test" (i.e. turn it up full blast in the car). I am so happy for everyone who got it, I can't wait to get mine, hopefully tomorrow...

Miracle?

anyone get a Miracle scroll yet?

Alain

I just received E72 about 90 days ago...had to order the generic version :( So no excitement from opening the Steamer Trunk. Oh well loving the music. Trying to remember which show you saw on E72. Will pay close attention when I get to hear it!

RE: MIRACLE

I had to go back and look at the email. my box has a number so it is not a miracle box. good luck to those still alive

Keith

I think I am going to have a friend who is a sound man come check my stereo this weekend. I mean I need to let everyone hear how good a 66 midnight hour is. Absolutely cannot wait.

Order Status

I was just wondering what the order status is of those that have received the box. Does it still show as backordered?

no communication

I have not received any communication. So there is some sort of Miracle Ticket? Is it Nassau Coliseum or Willy Wonka?

yes

YES IT WAS BACKORDERED THIS MORNING. The MIRACLE EMAIL READS LIKE THIS:Unroll that scroll! Does yours say MIRACLE? Well, we can't gift you with tickets to 78's best show but we ARE going to grant each miracle scroll holder with a personalized Grateful Dead 30 Trips RIAA-certified Gold Record plaque as well as your numbered scroll. To claim your miracle, we'll need you to follow a few simple steps – outlined here – by November 16th, 2015.

Gary Farseer...you mean this?

The Wonka Golden Ticket! http://www.cakebakeandsweets.com/melbourne/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2…

Order status meaningless

UPS tells me the box has shipped, but order status still says backordered, estimated to ship 10/31/15. I would say, Don't worry about the order status.

mmmm thanks sixtus

would love a Colorado Wanka Bar. I can almost see green chunks in there somewhere. Thanks for the update Fluffua, sorry if I did not get name right.

Sorry

I Hate being a spoiler but whenever most of you guys gets yours please answer this because ultimately it's about the music but to me this is about the BOX. I've owned a steamer and 90 1st box but this BOX takes the CIGAR WARLOCKS BOX to the next level. how do you guys feel? I've dubbed it the cigar dehumidifier

Fluff

sounds incredible! As I stated this morning, as Warlocks were my last shows, I think I will replay those tonight and tomorrow, even if I get the box tomorrow. Egad

@Born Cross Eyed

Thanks for the dimensions. When I saw the video yesterday I could see it was smaller then I originally expected it would be which is a good thing. I have just the perfect spot picked out in my music room for this baby. Glad to see you are in Bethlehem. My daughter went to Lehigh so we spent quite a bit of time down there a few years ago. I downloaded 9/25/81 show from Stabler Arena a couple of years ago. I like to have shows from venues that I know. Go Mt. Hawks! Rock on

Liner notes

Has anyone who has the box spoken about this yet? I haven't seen it. But I know someone else asked. From the quoted length of the book and the way it appears in the video, the liner notes Are Not in the book. So my edumacated guess is, The Liner Notes Are With The Individual Shows.

No Worries

You got it right. Colorado Wonka bars would be awesome Too bad its possibly +1.5 days from the WV. It seems we have Md. and THE WV panhandle covered that's closest to the VA mailing code

@rrot

Yes, someone earlier said each show is sort of like a DaP. Liner notes, photos, news articles, and the set lists are on the back of each show. Rock on

well gotta head east

Congrats to todays winners!

@rrot

I wasn't worried per-say but just curious. I live in the boonies where mail doesn't get delivered and was just trying to figure out if I should take a trip to the post office. I seriously doubt that it will arrive here in AK for a few weeks...which just sucks. :(

hopefully this helps

The CDS I looked at have a message from Dave I tried the last show. I couldn't find anything in the book but I'm probably the guy really answer but there is no booklet to the shows. the book reeads both you read half than have to make the back the cover I thought that was badass

Oh, I missed that

I did see someone post "they are NOT packaged like the DaPseries" But they are?

Got it, thanks.

They are NOT with photos, news, etc in the individual show cases. Just the brief notes we saw in the PDF.

they are NOT

It's kind of like Road trips meets Europe72 with a little bit of 77 in my opinion. So BE CAREFUL disc openings could be at the top of the show you pick out

If you really want to know

If you really want to know when the set will arrive at your door... Get a free UPS.com account (not a Premium, or whatever they call it). It will tell you the scheduled date and the tracking. You don't even have to know your package number, it will find it for you. Just have to make sure your name and address are exactly as dead.net has it.

AFTER SEEING THE BOX I WANT TO SEE A UNVEIL OF THE USB PACKAGING

Show notes compared to the 4CD-set

Can anyone give an opinion on the quality of the show notes. I believe in the 4cd truncated set - there were show-by-show reviews and notes. Are these replicated here or would the 4cd box be a good accompaniment to get to also get more detail on shows (as well as be a handy one for thee car).
