30 Days of Dead and More

Once more, it's time for 30 Days of Dead where for each day in November you can download a high-quality MP3 of a Grateful Dead song. Even better than that, it's free.  

We hope you've been brushing up on your live Grateful Dead and making room on all your devices because we're about to drop a motherload of high-quality MP3 downloads on you. Yes, there will once again be 30 days of unreleased Grateful Dead tracks from the vault, one for every day in November, selected by archivist and producer David Lemieux. The tracks are yours, no strings attached, but we hope you’ll stick around for the challenge and the chance to win some sweet swag from the Dead.

You know your Ables from your Bakers from your C's, but can your finely tuned ears differentiate the cosmic "comeback" tour from a spacey 70s show? Each day we'll post a song from one of the Dead's coveted shows. Will it be from that magical night at Madison Square Garden in '93 or from way back when they were just starting to warm it up at Winterland? Is that Pigpen's harmonica we hear? Brent on keys? If you think you know, lob your answer in and you just might find yourself taking home our daily prize of a 2023 Grateful Dead wall calendar or the grand prize - both, YES BOTH - of this year's coveted boxed set.

If you want even more of the Grateful Dead, this Saturday you can attend this year's Meet-Up at the Movies, featuring a performance from the Tivoli Concert Hall on April 17, 1972. I went to the Tuesday night screening and loved it; it was the Grateful Dead at their rocking best.
