    "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.

    some shows are worth revisiting...already
    I have already found myself coming back to 2 shows ...many times: 1972.09.24 Palace Theater - Waterbury, CT 1979.10.27 Cape Cod Coliseum - South Yarmouth, MA For me it is not so much the set list or current members - they just sound great at these particular shows. I haven't really touched the 80's or 90's yet either so this list may grow.

    I'm betting...
    I'd bet we see another 30 trips sooner rather than later. Does the vault contain another show from all 30 years? I'd guess we've got stuff they could at least audience patch like they did with this one to get us another 30 shows. Hell, they made a few million off shows that wouldn't have been otherwise releasable in other formats. I don't see them waiting another 10 years or more for another box like this. Instead they can be clearing some stuff from the vaults while hanging onto the better stuff they have other plans for and bring in millions. That being said, what is disc rot? I haven't checked my whole box yet, doing that this weekend. I have bought thousands of CDs and stored thousands of burned CDs over the years and have never came across one that was bad or went bad over the years. What is this disc rot all about and what causes it?

    1972 audio issue
    Thanks Tom H for the confirmation. I also just had a thought and checked the audio stream on the site here and it is present there too. At least it isn't just me. It only lasts about a minute so no big deal. I was getting ready to add it to my Dr. Rhino shit be messed up list.

    Running Order of the USB
    Just been listening to a friend's copy of 30 Trips, and noticed that songs have been moved around (presumably to fit on discs), and it made me wonder if the USB will have the sets in their correct order ?The question may've been asked already, but a can't be arsed to look through all the posts.

    Gary, Thank you for your post. My first concert was that of May 4, 1972. It was my first contact with the Dead. I wish you good listening! You tell me what you think.

    Another hour or so.. and I start my weekend which includes digging into this box. I hear you G. Farseer.. I would be jonsin' to get my grubby paws on the box too, if mine were stuck in postal limbo. May all (or lots) of the people that haven't gotten their boxes get them today. Perhaps they need to bring in Santa to deliver all remaining by dawn tomorrow.

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!
