This might seem crazy but.. in Jan 09 I decided to listen to all of Grateful Dead shows in order. Around this time I acquired an IPOD and discovered the "Archive" (multiple recordings of every gig). So I started with the beginning of 1986 and at this point I am in Oct. 1989. I will continue to 7/1990 (Brent's death) and then jump back to 1983-1985, then 1979-1982, then 1975-1978, then 1971-1974, and then 1967-1970. We'll see about 1965-1966, when I get to that point (probably be several years!). I listen to a lot of other stuff so most of this sequential listening happens either in the basement shop or the car. I must be at least a little crazy.

That's DEADicated for sure
I have listened to a lot of shows on tape and a few on disk but I'd never be able to do what you are gonna do. Good luck
I have a show from 66 I think at Troopers Hall, earliest I have.


thank you Jerry

It is the journey not the destination that is important.

Ohh this sounds heavenly! I may have to start to rebuild my collection again. I had a lot of stuff stolen over the years and it's down to a just a few shows. Have fun with it!:smokin: Enjoy the ride:grins:

check out etree.org. lots of soundboard quality shows on there. little bit of a pain as your have to convert them to a wav or mp3 format but has a huge list. I've gotten over 80 shows off there over the last few years.

They put out some amazing stuff from 75-78. Another favorite era was 89-90 when Brent was "peaking". Those shows at the Nick in Albany were awesome.
