"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.)

ROLLINGSTONE.COM SONG PREMIERE AND EXCLUSIVE DAVID LEMIEUX INTERVIEW
Head on over to Rollingstone.com for the very first listen of "Morning Dew" 9/18/87 Madison Square Garden, David Fricke's exclusive interview with archivist David Lemieux, and the reveal of 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUN's '69 and '84 shows.

*Helpful hints for using your USB:

Running the 30 Trips Player / Reader program:
On Windows – Navigate to the USB drive and double click the PCStart.exe file to run.
On MacOS – Open the GD 30 Trips drive, and double click the MacStart to run.

Viewing the digital book:
You can either view it within the program that comes on the drive, or by opening the PDF directly.

To view the PDF, open the PDF folder on the drive and the USB_bk_spreads_08-31 file within. Selecting the option within your PDF reading application to view as a “single page” might be preferable to viewing as a continuous document.

Importing music into iTunes and other library programs:
When you import the songs from the USB into your library, the information used to identify the track will likely leave them sorted incorrectly. Please use the song list found here to re-number the songs for each show so that they playback in the correct order.

woohoo digipacks

That makes me happy, even if they are delayed. I'd be happier with a photo of said digipacks. Its the silence from TPTB that creates the wild speculation on the board.

My crazy notes

If anyone is interested in the weird way I split up discs when I copy them, here's how the box set seems to be shaping up. For everyone else, please ignore the rest of this post: -1966 Discs 1 and 2 can be combined except for Midnight Hour (can be added to disc 1 or 2 from 1967) -1971 Add Greatest and JB Goode to another show as filler. Discs 2 and 3 can then be combined -1976 Samson added to end of set one disc and Playin-Encore on Disc 2 just leaves Roses for filler -1978 and all 3 disc shows (72-74, 82, 83-etc...will have some room for filler tracks) -Maybe keep Lindley Meadows intact as 2 discs, which leaves much room for other tracks on these 2 discs. -1979 Combine discs 2 and 3- Dancin-Black Peter(cut). Then Black Peter-Encore as filler (for 2 disc show) -1980 Stranger/To Lay Me Down at end of Set I (2 disc show) -1984 Cold Rain>Don't Need Love at the end of disc 1 (2 disc show) -1985 Good Lovin +Encore at end of disc 1 (2 disc show) -1988 Fantasy>Encore on Disc 1 (2 disc show) -1989 Estimated-Blow Away on Disc 1 (2 disc show) -1990 Throwin -Encore is extra for 2 disc show, also 10 minutes left at the end of disc 1 -1991 Help/Slip/Franklins on Disc 1 for 2 disc show -1992- Lovelight and Encore on Disc 1 for 2 disc show -1993 Days Between>Encore on disc 1 for 2 disc show -1994 is a 3 disc show (61,70,51 min) -1995 Encore on disc 1 for 2 disc show -1972/1973/1974/1981/1982/1983 and 1994 are all 3 disc shows. The current count looks to be 66 discs. Then again, this all depends on the accuracy of the allmusic timings. I can't imagine anyone splits up shows like I do, hence they're my crazy notes.

got a reply back today from Rhino

I'm new to this message board as of today but I have been following these threads for months now. I sent Rhino an email via their contact info on their website. This was my message and their response: Thank you for your email, Kevin. The shows will be in digipaks. Thank you for your patience. Dr. Rhino From: XXXXXX@yahoo.com [mailto:XXXXX@yahoo.com] Sent: Friday, September 11, 2015 1:04 PM To: Dr.Rhino Subject: 30 Trips Around The Sun (Grateful Dead) Hello, I’m sure at this point you have received many emails about this box set and now that the shipping date has been pushed back people are starting to get angry. I for one am not angry, but a little concerned. My concern is I have pre-ordered something that I have not yet seen and am about to be charged $700 for it. Is there any indication that this product will be revealed before I am to be billed for it on Sept 17th. Now, with no actual shipping date and no product information I am starting to consider cancelling my order. I don’t think it is a very good business practice to expect customers to pay up front for something and provide them so little information on the product itself and base their purchasing decisions solely on speculation. If you could answer one question, I would greatly greatly appreciate it. I just want to now how the cds will be packaged within the box. As individual shows? In digipaks? That sort of thing. If no information is given out about this product before the September 17th billing date, I will unfortunately have to cancel my order which I really don’t want to do. I just can’t justify supporting a business model such as this, playing on the loyalty of fans of this band. Thank you, XXXXX XXXXXX

re: packaging, delay, lack of info

I hope they are similar to Dave's Picks and not like E72 or the RTs where they scratch the disk or rip the cardboard. Would be cool if they had liner notes for each and every show. Bummed that they're delayed, but would rather wait and receive it exactly right from the crack equipment crew. I think the negativity would be a lot worse if they released it messed up and then had the horror show of taking it back and sending out whatever is messed up. SNAFUs happen, would be nice to know what happened. Not interested in low quality mp3 streams. I'd rather listen from my stereo speakers than my pc speakers. Would be a nice reward to be able to download high quality flac/alac or even HD tracks for this issue, but I totally understand why they would not do that... I think the lack of details in the actual cd packaging is TPTB's attempt at trying to minimize the profiteers the opportunity to gather the remaining stock. I do wish Dave had done more videos talking about the shows and why they were chosen. His enthusiasm is contageous and I look forward to them even with the wind and distractions. The effort they spent with the countdown, they should've really celebrated this boxset while we waited. IMHO they should've included the Flash Drive with the boxset and increased the number available to reach the same profit margin. While we wait, could the wise sages here come up with the runner up 30 trips for us to listen to (archive or release) while we wait? I do hope that there's a companion show released for DaP16 (Oxford ME anyone???) I look forward to Bliss's interview with Dave! Keep it cool - we're all frustrated - it's going to be worth the wait!!! What's everyone listening tonight???

Qustions Unanswered...

Look..although I have been a lurker here for years, this is my first post. I have really been frustrated at the unanswered questions posed here, so I decided to contact Rhino corporate in Burbank. I just received a call-back. Most of the information was useless, but I did relay lots of concerns mentioned here. I was told he will try to talk to the "higher-up" powers that be, to post answers to these questions on the dead net site. 1. Will the USB have fades or will the second sets run continuously with no breaks A--no idea. But good question. He will raise this question and hopes to have the answer posted on dead net. 2. Why was the box delayed. A--not certain, but he understands it was an issue that needed to be addressed and could not be overlooked. 3. Will the shows be individually packaged or will they be included either with the book or packed together in some sort of folder. A--Although he personally has not seen the box he has been told each show will be in its own packaging. Whether digi-packs or tri-fold sleeves or whatever he wasn't sure. Along these lines, he said everything he has heard about the book would point to the book being a separate part of the set and not some sort of integrated book/disc package. For grins I asked about the decision to not include Santa Clara in the Fare thee Well set. He said this has been a huge cause of complaints. He has relayed this up the chain before and will do this again. Please...I know there isn't much here that is very solid. I pass this along as an example that getting straight answers, even from corporate Rhino is impossible. At best, maybe these questions will be passed to someone who matters and knows. Please--no flames towards me here--I'm only trying to get some answers like all of you. Hey, I'm shocked I got a call-back/response.

your post

I know. I don't anything about Hd files or flacc files. I've only bought files for shows that don't have an option physical copies. as a purist I don't know anything about new technology. Ponos I have no clue about but they look baddass. I really wish the digital owners would get the USB with box because it's deserving for the price. thank you for your explanation because I'm old fashioned. I agree with you I will use the files to put in Itunes but will wait for the box because to me it's like having sex before you meet someone. thanks for your post and knowledge

Packaging

I stand corrected, most of those boxes has the paper Road Trip style fold out sleeves that scratch the CDs when you try to remove them from the sleeves, not really what I consider individual packaging that stands up to being put on the shelf out of the boxes. I would like digipacks like Dave's picks, not trifold sleeves that barely fit the CDs or DVD sized packaging that only fit on my DVD shelf. I guess it doesn't really matter as they will go in storage for safe keeping once they are ripped.

tracklist

There's some 31-40 min discs in there. I would imagine it would be the acme of foolishness to expect some filler. Franklin's Dancin' as an entire disc does not have my heart palpitating. Since it appears they kept the long jam of 11/14/73 together by moving some things, is it complaining too much to think they might have done the same on some shows they could have knocked down to two discs? I went through Spring '90/TOO to burn my car discs as 2 disc versions, and I only had to take out Space on a couple of shows and move some encores or parts of set II to disc 1 to accomplish that. (Though I also had to excise the fades as well, which took the most time, and I removed some crowd noise on a couple of shows.) Also, I'm curious at the specificity of the review on the allmusic page. You'd think that that review was actually written by someone who listened to the entire set, especially given the comment on the drums becoming more schtick as the years/shows progressed.

This setlist exceeds my hopes. Nobody's Fault, Tastebud, and Cardboard Cowboy...yes! No Early Morning Rain or Good Day Sunshine, alas. Disc 7 (Doin That Rag > Stephen > Eleven jam > Lovelight) sure looks sweet-tastin'....

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).
