    Buckle up as we take a deep dive into Giants Stadium!

    What's Inside:

    5 Previously Unreleased Complete Giants Stadium Shows On 14 Discs

    7/12/87 (24-track masters)

    7/9/89  (24-track masters)

    7/10/89 (24-track masters)

    6/16/91 (48-track masters)

    6/17/91 (48-track masters)

    Blu-ray/DVD video of the complete 6/17/91 show, mixed in surround sound  Mixed from the multitrack master tapes by Jeffrey Norman at Bob Weir's TRI Studios Mastered in HDCD by David Glasser at Airshow Mastering with Plangent Processes restoration Individually Numbered, Limited Edition of 10,000

    By 1987, the Grateful Dead had lived many of their nine lives but were about to embark on one not a soul had seen coming. In The Dark, their first studio album in seven years, had spawned a hit (A TOP 10 SINGLE FOR THE GRATEFUL DEAD?!) and "Touch Of Grey" begat a new generation with their fanny packs and their MTV and their undeniable quest to join the party already in progress. And boy, did the Dead let them in! But not without fine-tuning their sonic vibes to meet the new demand.

    "The Swamp," as Giants Stadium was affectionately known, along with the grandstands the Dead had been frequenting, would seemingly equate with BIGGER and LOUDER, but the band "remained determined to give equal weight to the more subtle, oblique elements; to the exploratory improvisation and rhythmic complexities; to the fine details of the most heart-rending ballads as well as the weirdest dissonances in the jams."

    With GIANTS STADIUM 1987/1989/1991, we retrace this journey from their 1987 breakthrough to their 1989 revelation ("the closest they ever came to sounding like a really polished stadium-level rock act, but the band’s penchant for breaking out of the constraints of song structure and into freewheeling improvisation will remind you just who you’re listening to here") to their transformative return in 1991, aided by elegance of Vince Welnick and Bruce Hornsby.

    GIANTS STADIUM: 1987, 1989, 1991 features five previously unreleased shows that were recorded at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ on: July 12, 1987; July 9 and 10, 1989; and June 16 and 17, 1991. Originally recorded by John Cutler, each show has been mixed from the multitrack master tapes by Jeffrey Norman at Bob Weir's TRI Studios in San Rafael, CA, and mastered in HDCD by David Glasser at Airshow Mastering. The first three shows are mixed from 24-track masters. The final two from 1991 are the only Grateful Dead shows ever recorded to 48-track masters. We’re rounding things out with a little visual stimuli -  the entire multi-camera 6/17/91 concert recording on either two DVDs or a single Blu-ray, both with a surround mix by Norman.

    Due September 27th, this release is limited to 10,000 individually numbered copies and available exclusively from Dead.net. We highly suggest you grab a copy while you can so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy all the exclusive content we'll be rolling out.

    Prefer your boxed set byte-sized? The collection will also be available for HD digital download in FLAC and ALAC, exclusively at dead.net, on release day. You can pre-order it now too.

    re: Dead End

    Hey CaseyJanes.....astute observation.

    Well, for anyone else paying attention, we indeed had only TWO open houses about 3 weeks ago, and our home was IMMEDIATELY snatched up by the ensuing Monday (we had 3 offers all over ask and went with the one with NO contingencies and NO inspection - cha ching!). So the move is "on" for the middle of Labor Day week out to Sudbury.

    The interesting thing here is, in fact, our destination property is ALSO on a Dead End, as in, like, the very last house on the street. BUT, sadly, there is NO DEAD END SIGN!!! So this has had me contemplating a few things:

    - WHY no Dead End sign there, hmmmmmm? Seems a bit odd, but then again, the home is literally at the top of a Hill that may otherwise be perceived as a private drive, but there are 3 other houses on the same street

    - Can I put a Dead End sign up at the end, just outside of the property? Or would that need to be an actual DPW 'sanctioned' road sign?

    - I could very well put up a Dead End sign on the home's property I believe, in which case I would try to find an actual, real, like, Dead-esque 'Dead End' sign....if such items exist (Google will be my friend here).

    If anyone has any insight to these extremely important and pertinent questions, do share.

    Of course, once we move in, a HUGE Dead Party will be thrown, and all you cats will be invited.

    fun video, technologically challenge. I was reading the Youtube comments, they were pretty funny. Bodies tossed overboard, Donna facing the amps for most of the performance. Would've been fun to see the camera pan the whole audience to get an idea of the space they were playing. Sounds like a pretty decrepit boat...

    I wish they'd do a box package where you buy the physical box and vinyl you'd get a free Hi Res download of that last show. Now why would they do that when you can buy all individually ;)

    But VGuy, WHAT songs did they play at that training practice? I mean, if they seemed sleepy, they clearly weren't in the correct headspeace and/or not enough mustard on those tunes. I would hope that a crazy live string of improv from say, '68, or some jazzy '73 was played but that seems not to be the case here. Maybe that dude on the Eagles needs a helping hand on his "picks"....steer him here.

Switching gears a bit here...

I know '76 is a hit or miss year for a lot of Heads, but after a short Hendrix marathon yesterday, I decided to spin Dick's 33 for the first time in a long while.

Reminded me how much I loved that release when it first came out. Lots of great stuff in both shows.

You're welcome Exile. It was an interesting listening experience.

Skulltrip. I also popped on a '76 show a half hour ago with DaP 28. Cousins of.....avatar guy once pointed out how good Scarlet Begonias could get during the 2nd half jam in '76, before FOTM was attached to it. DP 33 is a steller example.

I am here to say - the between song banter on DaP 28 is so loud and funny. Maybe need headphonea

Dave's 28 is actually one of my favorite recent releases, KeithFan. It's gotten a lot of spin since it arrived in my mailbox.

And agreed on those '76 Scarlet Begonias. The '74s used to be my favorite stand alone versions for the longest time (Dave's 9 immediately comes to mind), but the ones from '76 definitely have a specific vibe that I've come to really dig.

Skulltrip and Keithfan,
76 is great stuff. Haven't come across a bad release yet. Some are better than others as far as sound quality is concerned. Dick's 33 is one of the best.

No shipping notice for me yet😭.
For those that have received them, what is the expected arrival date?

I had less than an hour left at work and decided it has been a while since I listened to Dave's Picks Volume 9. Cranked it through my headphones and had enough time for the first five songs. The last song I listened to before walking out the door was Scarlet Begonias from DaP 9. Then I read your post in the parking lot and now I'm replying at the gas station (no more posting and driving for me :D

Nice, KeithFan! I love when the big generator makes those synaptic connections. What my uncle used to call a "cosmic coincidence".

Dave's 9 is one of my fave and most played picks, and that particular Scarlet Begonias always gets me grinning. Everything about it hits my ear right in the sweet spot.

Golly-- the Release Date is tomorrow and mine hasn't even shipped yet. Lame. Has anyone else gotten Shipping notices?

No tracking # included in the email.
It says ‘Tracking Number’, but it was blank where there was supposed to be a number.

Guess its arrival date will be a surprise.

Fingers crossed for this weekend.

I got my shipping notification late on Tuesday and it did come with tracking info from UPS. It's saying it'll get here on Monday the 23rd after originally quoting me Friday the 20th. Understandable, given I'm in Houston and we're getting some flooding this week.

I think one of the next two Dave's Picks is going to be from Autumn 72. Maybe one of the Boston Music Hall shows from September 15th or 16th. I was just listening to the sound board of a Bird Song from the 16th and it is so so good. Any other Keith fans out there are going to enjoy the piano work he was doing on that one . It's a little low in the mix but you can definitely hear him working . The other show has a good Dark Star => Brokedown Palace (it appeared on 30 days of Dead a couple of years ago. While I would like to see it cap off 2019, I could also see him using it as the poster child for the 2020 Dave's Picks subscription. Can somebody please end this 1972 drought for fuck's sake. Give us Dark Stars. That's really the dream box set for me. Give me a 20 show box set where every show has a Dark Star. " the Dark Star Constellation". If Warner Brothers wants to put me under contract for 5 years to go marketing, I'll follow dead and Company and double the DaP subscription rate and box set production numbers. $200K a year + travel expenses and conjugal visits.

The latest 45 came the same way no tracking, and it was delivered by usps. So assumed smartpost.

UPS says I have a package coming tomorrow from WEA D2C Distribution.

Good thing that UPS knows the tracking number.

I highly recommend signing up for a UPS My Choice account. They will email you whenever they receive a tracking number going to your address. You can then watch the progress using the app.

Caught a few minutes of a Johnny Knoxville movie last night (I don't usually watch Johnny), call the Ringer. He was looking to enter the special Olympics to raise money and he's being pushed by his uncle to do it. And he was Uncle Gary! Is your Gary the kind of guy who'd enter the special Olympics?

No shipping notification yet. Checked my order on dead.net and it tells me it hasn’t shipped yet. Let’s hope this means it is being dispatched correctly to the UK and I might see it in three weeks or so with no extra freight charges. I notice my DaP 2019 subscription says #32 is released on 1st November so only a few weeks to go.

I also agree that this monster show is killer. The 'Here comes sunshine' and 'eyes' shine. Most key songs are a generous length in sweet time. Can't wait for the giants box. 4/2/73 sat in limbo till a few comments made me whip it out. Peace.

Damn google voice translator.

Dennis would you believe i have an uncle dennis as well. He shipped me my Grateful Dead starter kit, with copies of Ladies & Gentlemen, Nassau, Dozin' and....what was the 4th one...anyway.

Moses Quasar - funny you mentioned saving the '72 shows for Dave's Picks, because I was mulling over where they might make the most money on the '72 shows. Tough to say. On the one hand those shows would be a great way to sell Dave's subscriptions, but on the other hand they could make a hefty bundle of cash on a box set. I think they need to strike while the iron's hot. I would venture to say demand for 1972 will never be higher than it is right now. It does stand to lose it's high stock price over time though, as Dead & Co won't last forever (definitely helps sales), and we ain't all getting younger.

Like a fine wine in a vintage year.. these shows will likely cellar well for decades to come and do nothing but increase in value. Love them as I do, D&C is a mere thin and fizzy champagne in comparison.

Who knows what will become of all the 72 shows, when and how they will get released and I suspect not all are in the vault just yet. There appears to be shows that do circulate as glorious soundboards that Dave has not been able to get his grubby little paws on just yet.

I am also suspect that a customer service rep would give out details like this without them getting leaked to the real insiders.. but this is all speculation. I don't think this really gives us anything to go on.

One way to look at things from this point forward is.. when they break it all down, box sets vs. special releases vs. Dave's Picks all sell for about the same price per disc (give or take). This most recent box set is slated to sell 16k copies and it spans 87 through 91. The last box set will one day sell 15k copies. Dave's Picks is easily selling 20k copies and if they have to string us along with the occasional kind 1972 Normanized nugget, I'd call it pretty savvy marketing.

Either way, the business model is the same. They are spreading out the really good shows and in order to buy them, you have to get a box with a few crème de la crème with a few surrounding shows mixed in. The same with Dave's Picks. If you want the releases, they are going to temper the great with the other releasable shows that many people like and are still in high demand, yet not quite anthems.

That's all good with me. $100 a year plus a box and a vinyl disc or two.

As far as 1972, there are many in the fall that qualify as stupendous 5 star shows. My wish list is an October Fox Theatre box followed one week later by the rest of the August BCT shows in a box save the rest as tent poles to the Dave's Picks series. Vault crack, I know.. but hey I guy can dream, right?

I would settle with a 1972 Dave's Picks 32. That would be grand.

So we started at 12,000 and now we are at 20,000 a year. How do you make it jump to 21,000 or 22,000 for 2020...... Release a well known show to start the subscription process ..It won't be anything with the Allman Brothers either, because the potential as a stand alone release is much higher. 6/14/76 Beacon Theatre is a good example to start 2020 with or a 2/15/73 Dane County... . Hofheinz Pavilion 11/19/72. Something along those lines to make us all crazy. The fourth show for 2019 when you already close to being sold out, while I hope it is a 1972 show ,is more likely to be a one off show that is awesome but not talked about.... Sorry over served... bob t

Wow is right.

Doesn't surprise me that much.. hundreds of thousands of people were at these shows.

Garbage? I think not.

PM MaryE or Email Dr. Rhino. I bet they can get it straightened out. Consider buying the DVD perhaps, that will sell out in short order too at this point, especially once people get their first listens and some decide it in fact kicks ass.

I know I just wrote highly of 1972, and meant it.. but there was something in the water in the some of the later years, especially 89 (and 91). I just got of an 80's bender of sorts and it was remarkably refreshing.

Come on in boys.. the water is fine.

"D&C is a mere thin and fizzy champagne in comparison." Aptly stated!

No Doubt. I told myself I would never waste my time on them unless somebody offered me a free ticket. I'm going for the third time at the Garden in a couple of months. As my cousin said (and this is the same guy who showed up from Buffalo at my front door unannounced on July 7th 1989 with a JFK ticket for me), " there's no way we're going to get rained out of this one". If you recall I went with him to the Camden New Jersey show and got rained out two songs into the second set. I bitched about it here for a couple of posts and then moved on.

I agree, the 72 shows age like fine wine. I was just thinking that there won't be as many fine wine connoisseurs in demand of these shows in another five years. Doesn't mean the wines getting any worse, just means the demand for it getting less. I hope I'm right and that Pinkus and Lemieux are thinking along those lines, only because I'm selfish and I want them released as soon.

I've been enjoying the live stuff from January of 69 that was released with the anniversary edition of Aoxomoxoa. Clementine, Alligator, New Potato Caboose. There are many factors of course, but the difference in sounds from eta to era Thai in so largely to Jerry's guitar and rig. I absolutely love the Gibson SG. All the great players were using it in 69 & 70: Garcia, Townshend, Mick Taylor, Hendrix.....and later Angus Young. They're the guys I'm most familiar with, I'm sure they were other greats who used it. I was at a store called Woodstock, coincidentally on the anniversary back in August. They had a band playing on the front lawn, and the guitar player was using none other than the classic Gibson SG. I was ten feet from him and took several pictures, as I've never been that close to one that wasn't behind glass.

I knew that comment would come back and bite me.

Don't get me wrong, I love what D&C are doing and really enjoy seeing them. They are on to something.. but 72 has some of the better moments the band ever did. I meant this as more praise for 72 than a detraction for what's going on now.

Besides.. I like champagne, just not as much as a good vintage Bordeaux or Burgundy.

If that makes sense. I do have a strong respect for what the boys are doing now and am so appreciative and grateful they are still out there doing it. Wish ticket prices were a bit lower, I like to be in the pit.

when I got home today, and it is very nice. What a nice little package, all box sets should be this size. Glad I did not not order. Can't wait to dive into this baby, 91 is one of my favorite years and with Bruce, that makes it a seven man band. gimme, gimme, gimme, slobber>drool. Got the entire weekend to relish this beauty, ahhhhh, I wonder what the poor people are doing this fine day. I think I will sit back and crack a cold one and roll up a big fatty and enjoy this flashback. To compare D&C to the Grateful Dead is just.....wrong. After I listen to this a few times, I will report my findings.

I love these buy n forget, no stress Grateful Dead gems that are announced with a faint knock by U.P.S. Ground. If my music was on I may have missed the single knock or was it the sound of the 12x8x3.5 box hitting the ground and bottom of door. I was one of the "No Tracking Numbers" recieved this time too. After a brief review of the contents I must say, if all the disc play glitch-free "This box may be the most UserFriendly offered to us yet".
