    "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.

    The 11/8/70 Show
    This show has some interesting things about the set lists: 1st: 'Around And Around' Final: 'Operator', 'Main Ten',' Wake up Little Susie' Only: 'Mystery Train', 'My Babe' Others: 'New Orleans' (Bob) > 'Searchin' (Pigpen) / 'Operator' follows 'Ripple' (I'm a sucker for both). The 'Dancin' Jam' out of 'The Main Ten' & 'Dark Star" has a great spacey feel to it (w/ "Dark Star' traces) before the band finally picks up the pace and goes into a 1970 style 'Dancin' In The Streets'. In short, I love this show! So much so that I downloaded it from Archive, if for no other reason than historical perspective. I find that my hearing adjusts after a few songs. While the sound quality is about the same a few others I downloaded for the same reason are: 4-15-69 (Pig in all his glory) / 3-21-70 / 5-7-70 / 6-24-70 2 shows. / 10-23-70 listen to the guy at the very end! /12-28-70 great audience recording on this one. A show that can only be streamed, but you might want to hear from a cultural standpoint: 6/7/70. The band starts the electric set with 'Cryptical'. As it's winding down you can hear a woman in the audience giving everyone *grief* because they're not doing enough to stop the Vietnam War. The band slows down enough to let her have her say and then slams into 'The Other One'. This show also has the 1st 'Sugar Magnolia' (it sounds like it!) with a 'Louie Louie' tease after it. Sorry for being so long-winded and hope you enjoy.

    "Famous, Original Ray's..." and all the variations, heh. There was only one Ray's, though. And now it's gone. Hell, used to be you could still get a decent slice most anywhere. That's all changed, too. Now you can't get a decent slice almost anywhere. Well, at least we still have John's Pizza on Bleecker Street (though that would be a pie, not a slice). So, I go into a deli nowadays and ask for a regular coffee, and they say, "Milk and sugar?" What? I said a REGULAR coffee! Didn't you hear me? Sheesh! That was always known as milk, 2 sugars... I'm a stranger in my own city now.

    Hard to imagine no Ray's.A slice cost a lot more by the time I found it but worth every penny. Remember all the places that used a variation of the name to try and trick people?

    Yeah, dude. Ray's Pizza (the one in Greenwich Village) that's been there since like 1973 is no more. When I went elementary school across the street, a slice was 50 cents (that was expensive back then, other places were charging 35 cents!), Ray's would give us kids a half slice for a quarter. They've been gone for a few years now. NYC is done. Stick a fork in it.

    Say it Ain't So ...Now you're making me hungry and a little homesick. I also grew up in NY and now live in sunny CA. As I got older I couldn't deal with living indoors for so many months a year.

    No Dead for me tonight
    just some Dave Van Ronk, and some Donald Fagen to close the night out. An all-Manhattan night for me ;) Ah memories...by the way, NYC is effectively dead to me now (and not in a good way)...9 out of 10 native NYers surveyed agree, NYC is mostly populated by hipster douchebag transplants these days. The closing of Ray's Pizza on 11th Street and Sixth Ave was the last straw for me...oh, and those fking bike lanes, it takes every last ounce of my self control to not run those citibike-riding mfkers over...just serving the rest of my time until I can escape to the country and collect a pension... Maybe I'm just growing old(er) and cynical.

    Yeah, man... One I didn't know about until I streamed (on the recommendations from a few friends on this board via PM), but I am now hooked on.

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!
