    "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.

    TOS Violation
    Sorry, but I have to agree with saintstephen 1971. A Clear violation of the TOS. Granted it is only one post, but still, one is too many. Fair is fair people.

    Wow!
    Thanks to all who have sent me private messages for your kind words and support! Very awesome. There are more than messages than I have time to reply to at this moment, but want to express my appreciation for your support. We all love this band and the vast majority of folks are respectful to them as well as those who work for them, by simply being honest and not taking or giving away something that legally doesn't belong to them. By showing simple respect and courtesy to tptb, both here in their house, and elsewhere, we as fans can continue to look forward to many years of new releases by tptb. Often times, doing the RIGHT thing isn't popular in certain circles. Doing the right thing, being honest and being respectful yields the greatest rewards in life. Thank you again! There are many many awesome people here.

    Should your betrothed come out with a losing hand trying to procure the pearls, harp, and diamond ring, would you be true to his dying day...or find another sweet man to treat you with style? The eight-sided whispering hallelujah hat rack is the true grail here. I do hope you'd be willing to share it, though, should my quest prove successful ~ two of the eight sides is my only supplication (that's how many hats I actually wear of the myriad ones perpetually tumbling over each other atop my coat rack).

    Damaged disks
    I finally finished burning all of the disks except for the 2 I received that had big cracks in them. As I figured they were unreadable and just made that tell-tale clicking/grinding noise. Disk 1 of the 75’ show and disk 2 of the 94’ show. The cracks were almost identical in length going from the inside outward. I wanted to burn them all to make sure none of the others had any issues before I contacted customer service. Just got off the phone with cs and I have officially been put on the Dr. Rhino shit be messed up list. I was told that I would be contacted via email within a couple of weeks. Amy said they were compiling a list of all the issues being reported. I haven’t seen anyone report here that they had any issues with their cases. I guess there was one person who said they had a spine splice. I don’t have that but about 9 of my cases had some smudging/spotting/smearing. Some just had a few minor spots but 2 or 3 had quite a few spots front and back. Is anyone else seeing this? I didn’t report it to customer service but when the good dr. reaches out I may ask for some replacements. Normally I wouldn’t bother but since they will be sending me 2 disks anyway it won’t hurt them any to toss in some empty cases.

    box art
    Apparently I wasn't sharp enough to realize that one of the moons on the box lid was a new moon. Thanks for setting me straight, Jeffsmith. Kind of cool how the names of the earliest band members start in "Spring." It would have been nice if Keith and Donna's names were together on the same side of the box but Keith and TC are the only names on the "Fall" side and they each joined the band in the Fall. Coincidence, or was that planned? Also, I'm a little surprised Bruce's name is not on the box. He was a member for about as long as TC. It's not a big deal but I'm curious about how that decision was made. Listened to the '84 show the last two nights and it sounds great. I'm really enjoying skipping around and taking my time with the shows.

    Europe 72 Book, Box arrivals & Defective Boxes . . .
    Thanks to Alain, JimInMD, antonjo & Born Cross Eyed for giving me your opinions on the Europe 72 Book. Sounds like everyone thinks it's a good one. Now I just have to find one. I missed out on the Trunk and have the music only edition. Glad to hear the Boxes are showing up around the World. Feeling for those who have not received theirs yet. Your patience is being tested "Grately", but hopefully it is just around the corner. So far, I've not been contacted by anyone from Dead.net or Rhino, with a resolution for the "name panel" error on my 30 Trips Box (it has 2 "T.C. Keith" panels and no "Jerry Bob Pig" panel). Have others with damage/defective Boxes received any definitive resolution to their Box issues? If so, from whom did the resolution come?

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!
