    "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.

    Gary,go if you can. John is an icon of American folk music and one of our greatest living songwriters.His voice is kind of rough these days but doesn't take away from the songs. I have seen him several times since 91 or so and it's always been great.

    Thanks Dave
    I appreciate that very much. Side note: there are a few seats for John Prine and Jason Isbell for tomorrow night. Anybody have any feelings on them. I know Jason pretty well but John Prine is still Virgin territory for me. But wow, some seats are spensive.

    Rdevil: I will update on Dylan and what I think for sure. Been reading and absorbing all that is being written. Love it, especially since this will all be a new experience to me. Been making notes, checking Amazon. Unfortunately, I think I am about to have yet another big music order for 2015. But hey, what else is there do do but music, coffee, Blueberry, and good beer on the weekends! That's the Spirit!

    When will the box ship?
    Who really knows, I don't have "inside information."My guess is the first week of October, starting on Monday the 5th. My early guess. My guess for the delay is related to the Europe 72 Steamer Trunk box. If you recall, many discs were sent out unpolished and it appeared that there were scratches on the playing surface and that each of the show disc sleeves were made with flimsy cardboard, a thinner grade that the Road Trips series cases. People seemed gypped and there were a lot of complaints, and Rhino had to send out a whole lot of new discs and sleeves. Or something like that. I was one of the lucky ones who had everything just exactly perfect on the Europe 72 box.

    Always happy to engage in debate or critical analysis of the man.. On that note, he largely has been playing the same setlist since 2013 with minor tweaks along the way. Admittedly has taken a lot of the fun out of watching the setlists, which was like religion before that. But still great shows. His Fall tour started in Oslo today and benefiting from the time difference, he's already done. That's the only good thing about him touring on a different continent! So he started working some songs into Shadows In The Night first last Fall briefly and then earlier this year a bit more. Tonight's definitely unusual in that it had 13 originals and 7 covers, including several (obscure) Sinatra covers that weren't even on SITN. They were both recorded at the time of those sessions, and there has been rumors of a Shadows vol. 2, but still, pretty random. Haha 1. Things Have Changed 2. She Belongs To Me 3. Beyond Here Lies Nothin' 4. The Night We Called It A Day 5. Duquesne Whistle 6. Why Try To Change Me 7. Pay In Blood 8. I'm A Fool To Want You 9. Tangled Up In Blue (intermission) 10. High Water (For Charley Patton) 11. Full Moon and Empty Arms 12. Early Roman Kings 13. Come Rain or Come Shine 14. Spirit On The Water 15. Scarlet Town 16. All Or Nothing At All 17. Long And Wasted Years 18. Autumn Leaves (encore) 19. Blowin' In The Wind 20. Love Sick

    IMO Dylans best work came from 64-67, with Blonde on Blonde being the peak/best. Chimes of Freedom really is a turning point, in my opinion everything after that song was gold. Just as many of the people in the 60s, Dylan went far out and then sorta lost it and had to come back to earth in order to make sense of what just happened. I found that after my own psychedelic experiences I wanted to strap myself to a tree with roots. Its crazy how many people I know personally that went through years of psychedelia only to become farmers haha, its like you either lose it and end up forever in space or you come WAY back down to earth. I never listened to bluegrass until after years of psychedelic music,so happy I now get to enjoy Grisman,Bill Keith,OAITW, Muleskinner etc. I now find psychedelia in almost all music. Dylan being ahead of everyone by atleast a year(64-67) was the first example of this with the great John Wesley Harding and Nashvile Skyline. Love Blood on the Tracks(Especially the NY versions) and Desire; and though I am not Christian I feel very moved by SlowTrain, Bob's vocals and raw emotion really come through atleast for me. I haven't listened to much of his 80s work, though Jokerman is alright by me. For the 90s I really enjoy World Gone Wrong the most, GarciaGrisman also did renditions of a couple of the tunes on there. Tempest and Shadows in the night feel like gifts to the world to me and I really enjoyed both. If I had to choose one album from Dylan to take with me, it would be Blonde on Blonde.

    Always seem to forget record store day as I have never really participated. I guess I will head down to our local freaky record shop on that day just to check in. I am sorry that I might ask this question next year.

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!
