    "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.)

    *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.

    No ">" in the set
    I've started ripping the discs to iTunes. So far, there are no ">" on the track listings, indicating that one song goes seamlessly into the next. I use those markings to join tracks, so that adds a lot of extra work. Would have been nice if they showed the ">"!

    Ticket stub: 10/27/91Backstage pass: 6/9/93 red velvet lining Everything is all there as far as cds and goodies. Scroll had some damage at the top of it. Not sure what happened here. It looks like someone had issues with rolling up the scroll. Like they had to force it or something. Must have got in a hurry. So far, I love I love this box. I held out on listening to the entire shows while waiting for delivery. The highlights so far for me have been the 4/15/70, 10/21/83, 10/26/89, 3/18/71, and 11/10/67 shows. I still have quite a bit left to dive into. Things are lookin good in deadhead land. Here in a couple weeks we'll have DaP16 from 3/28/73. Can't wait!!

    Multitracks
    I'm with Judysparty on this. Are the multitracks from this box 11/10/67 and 10/26/89? I've seen 10/26/89 noted, but the only other one that makes sense to me is 11/10/67?

    DP 4
    The release itself is one my favorites, a classic and a true giant. I don't think comments indicated the release was a travesty.. to the contrary, that it is so good it deserved full show treatment. The use of the word travesty was as much a play on the word itself and that it has come up on these threads a good bit over the last six months. I guess I am a completest and love the acoustic portions that have been released. My comments were more that I wish the whole shows (acoustic and electric, early and late - whatever exists) were released. There was also a good big of dialogue about the history of Dicks Picks, one disc vs. two vs. three, etc. that is pertinent. I wouldn't consider this a negative comment, or at least it wasn't meant as such. Hope that helps clarify.. Dicks 4 is special as were the shows themselves.

    RE: funding project
    Thanks for the link to donate to Kevin's new PC. Kevin has been doing great work for over 15 years in bringing lost GD video to circulation and freely sharing it with anyone that wanted it. He is a great resource and lavishes time on syncing the best source audio in circulation and the bits of video that circulate for the shows, often with crappy original audio. Mr. Tobin is one of the behind the scene faces that brings the past to life with his work that inspires and entertains us all. I'm proud to help him get a new workstation, so he can continue his personal quest in sharing rare GD video to the deadhead community. Check out his past work here. http://db.etree.org/ktvids

    Dick's Picks 4 2/13-14/70
    Now that we've got all the facts aired (again), I want to say that this pick was really the furthest thing from a travesty. There really are not any tracks out of order at all. What we got in DP4 was essentially the complete second electric sets from the late shows on both the 13th and the 14th, missing only the AWBYG encore from the 13th. The only deviations from this both-second-sets format are quite minor and reasonable: we got one extra (you might say bonus) song, Casey Jones, from the opening electric set on the 14th, intro'd by Zacherle. Laudable. The only other deviation is that the material from the 14th, while it is complete and in proper running order, is interrupted by the material from the 13th. That, IMO, was also eminently sensible: how else to get all this stuff onto three discs without glaring breaks in the jam segments? [I did weep (a little) that a disc break had to come between Dark Star and TIFTOO, because that is one of my absolute favorite segues in the band's performance history -- just synapse searing stuff; the audience silence and reaction mirrors my own slack-jawed admiration as those last gentle notes and a cymbal wash open a perfect instant where nothing can happen, no applause, no whoops or cheers from the crowd, just a microsecond of awe and... into Cryptical at which point the attendees can't hold back their glee any longer -- but given the limitations of CDs I don't think there was another valid option. I have long since edited the tracks together for seamless playback of the entire 13th second set.] DP4 is a fantastic release. We could only wish for more of the material that was played on both nights (a virtual impossibility given the state of thinking on what disc buyers would accept at the time of the release, for reasons pointed out below).

    Re: Film
    I'm certainly glad they have more film.. I just wish they had more footage of the show. Two songs? At this point I am thankful for what we have.. I believe the scuttlebutt regarding the filming of the festival itself involves a camera and production crew that got into the kool aid, whether on purpose or by accident. Bet that put more than a couple people in a situation they were not prepared for...

This offering from 30 Trips is a classic Bruce/Vinnie show! The whole fall 1990 tour really. For a band who just hired two new players this tour has some mighty fine moments. New York to the UK and more! Good stuff!
