    "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.

    Europe '72 book
    g1u2i3, I can't claim Alain's most excellent reasons for the Europe '72 book being dear to his heart (super cool), but I love it. The treasury of photos alone is worth it, and one section is nothing BUT photos. Plus some great reminiscences by a variety of those who were aboard. Well worth seeking out, in my opinion. The definitive document on that tour. Well, except for the audio documents, of course.....

    How many of these shows are multi track masters?
    I know the 89 show is mastered the same way Spring TOO was, but which other shows do you think have that quality?

    Update from the Netherlands
    DHL phoned me this evening to tell me how much I would have to pay them (import duty, tax, their charges for presenting the thing to customs), asked me how I wanted to pay (I chose to pay the delivery man when he brings it - he has a mobile PIN thang for bank and credit cards) and told me that delivery would occur on Thursday. Gotta take a day off work to be home for that. Had already arranged to take Friday off so its gonna be a long weekend. No problem with that!

    Ok I screwed up..
    ... I thought I was just deleting all my "sent" "PM"S", but I deleted all my "PM's". I know I was in touch with a couple of people about "things",, a Jeremy and a "I" guy, took care of tony F today, but now I don't have your info. I think that was Jeremy K. If you're waiting to hear from me, you may need to remail. Hit me at dennis.wilmot@verizon.net. Jeremy K, I see you in my email files.

    I sucks to do, but at least it's my way. I don't rip them in like disc 1, disc 2, disc 3 with tracks 1-8, 1-6, 1-9. I rip them into a common folder and number them 1-end. My folder will contain all the songs numbered in order. I don't care which set it is, or if it's an encore. You'll know when you listen. The worst part is adding the ">" to the id tag. Still in the air if it's easier to just type filename with out and add greater than to tag after, or rip with greater than in filename, have it turn to an "_", then change the filename. It's a buck dancers choice I guess.

    Some more notes on box....
    I had mention (and others also) about veneer peeling off, I had suggested wood glue. My veneers on the two hidden flaps had just a little. Like when they opened it to put books and scroll inside it peeled a tiny bit. I got some wood glue, applied with a toothpick and clamped with a paper clip. Worked great. Since I've ripped all my disc in, I threw the box on the shelf, what really struck me was why didn't they start with Jerry's name on the front panel, now I look at the box and it says "Pen Bill Phil Mickey",,, kinda odd where they started?!? Minor complaints I know, glad I got it. The very last disc wasn't recognized in my desktop computer, but worked just fine in my wife's laptop. I've had that with lots of other disc, will not rip on drive 1, but works in drive 2. I don't know why??? But no missing disc, no cracked disc. Can always have a bad rip, will never know until I listen to them all. That may take awhile, only so much listen time available. I guess everyone was right about it looking like a case of beer, my wife came home last night and it was on the counter, finally she said, oh that's the box you bought, I thought it was a case of beer. :-) I also chuckled to myself several times while reading Dave's comments on the inside cover of each disc. Did he go to the Trump school of marketing. His use of superlatives for everything made me laugh, I could only hear "the Donald". It was a tremendously monsterest Don't Ease Me In, the like of which the world will never see again,,, and I know because people come up to me all the time and tell me I know Dead shows like no one else, but me an Jerry were personal friends. Many a time Jerry would tell me how he just couldn't keep up with me in the amount of blow I could do. And of course I only got the best blow,,,, Jer told me that all the time. Enjoy you boxes and the ones that didn't get one, their loser with low energy :-)

    In perfect condition. The box truly is a masterpiece. Little details: hidden magnets to close the two bottom compartments. The quotes inside the 'doors'. The book is beautiful. I checked and it does have threads stitched through the binding, so hopefully it will not fall apart over time even if the glue fails. Ticket: October 30, 1991- Oakland Coliseum, Pass: August 22, 1993 Autzen Stadium, Eugene Oregon. I am very much looking forward to listening to these shows!

    A few years ago I bought an original unused ticket from my first show, Ventura County Fairgrounds 7/22/84. Wouldn't you know it, the ticket in my 30 Trips box set is from my last show, Oakland Coliseum 10/27/91. Better than a Miracle scroll!

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!
