30 Days Of Dead - November 1st

We're on a mission to make a miracle every day. As a token of our appreciation for making 2010 an epic year, we're giving away a high-quality 320Kbps download every day this November. That's 30 days of Dead! Intrigued? We're also going to put your knowledge to the test and give you the chance to win some great music from the Dead.
                                                     + More Info
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 70's show? Each day we'll post a free download 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? Step right up and try your hand.

Each day, the first person to guess the venue & date correctly will get a Road Trips of their choice. If you’re not first but you've answered correctly, you will also be automatically entered for a weekly prize of THE WARNER BROTHERS STUDIO ALBUMS VINYL BOX (EXCLUSIVE EDITION) or a FORMERLY THE WARLOCKS boxed set. Log in now and enter to win!

bdank9333 was the first person to answer correctly and will get to pick a Road Trips of their choice. You will be contacted within 5 business days with instructions on how to get your prize.
We haven't selected a winner for the week of 11/22 yet!

Can't believe people are actually THANKING you for throwing us a bone....I'm gettin' too old for this crap.....why not just release ALL 30 SHOWS for download and REALLY make 2010 a banner year ( and 320K is hardly high quality)

It is 100% September 20th, 1970 - Fillmore East, New York, NY.

I've tried a few times to put in my answer but it says I've already done it - which I haven't...

Cool idea - but a few kinks to work out...

Hey man, it didn't work?

Said I made a submission & I didn't.
Sounded like another time in a forgotten space to me . . .

possible glitch?

So...the contest/giveaway seems pretty cool. Of course, if we could hear a little of the song before or after it would be a lot easier to look 'em up in the old Deadbase. Just kidding!!! The fun is in guessing, right?
Seriously, though. I tried clicking on the "select date & venue" and all it gave me was the beginning (alphabetically - A) of the venue list and then I couldn't scroll down or choose a date or anything.
Also, I am already registered on this site, but it seems like you have to log-in separately for the 30 days of November deal.
I hope y'all can get this straightened out.
As always, thanks for the music!!

dang

I knew the answer, but it said I had already submitted (which I hadn't).

Oh well - maybe they'll get it fixed by tomorrow and we can get a HARD question ...
