Grateful Dead
30 Days Of Dead - November 25th
+ 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! - Less Info

I was @ this show! Too bad I didn't guess it :-)))
May there be light where there was once none!
May there be music where there was once silence!!
Sandman Out!!!
Are you ready for a brand new beat???
Critter, you keep doing amazing things. My wife is not a big deadhead :-((( but she is a huge Funk Fan. SOOOOOO, huge jugs (I meant this typo :-))) and, well... you know.
Thanx!
May there be light where there was once none!
May there be music where there was once silence!!
Sandman Out!!!
How did I do it? Well, I didn't know where to start because they played it for such a short time it could have been any of them. So I just started listening to the shows I was at that they played it. And, wah-la, Hampton 84.
Thank you dead.net!
Can you win the daily and the weekly or I'm I being too greedy?
way to go dude
Congrats on the win. I think it's fair gaime to continue entering for the weekly prize. Good luck getting your Road Trips. I won on the 10th and it's been a hassle getting a response from anyone other than marye, but she can only relay information apparently.
Thank you Canyon Critter for posting links to the mp3s, I missed a few of the songs, but thanks to you I now have them all. Good Karma for you.

And by that I mean the Pen Kind.....Easy Wind A and B makes me smile smile smile.
Beeen Drinking that Jack and Ballin' that....welll yes you will.
Lyrics By: Robert Hunter
Music By: Robert Hunter
I've been balling a shiny black steel jack-hammer
Been chipping up rocks for the great highway
I'll live five years if I take my time
Balling that jack and drinking my wine
I been chipping them rocks from dawn till doom
While my rider hide my bottle in the other room (note 1)
Doctor say better stop balling that jack
If I live five years I'm gonna bust my back, yes I will (note 2)
Easy wind, cross the Bayou today (note 3)
'Cause there's a whole lotta women, Mama
Out in red on the streets today (note 4)
And the river keeps a talking
But you never heard a word it said
Gotta find a woman be good to me
Won't hide my liquor try, to serve me tea
'Cause I'm a stone jack baller and my heart is true
And I'll give everything that I got to you, yes I will
(1) on the version on DP16, Pigpen sings "While my baby hide my bottle ..."
(2) on DP16, Pigpen sings "In another five years I'm gonna bust my back"
(3) on DP16, Pigpen starts with the chorus before before the first verse, and he sings "Easy wind, blowin' cross the Bayou today"
(4) variants that Pigpen sang include "Out dressed in red ...", "Out on the streets in red today" and "Out in red that way."
