Our friends the Rhinos have various and sundry new releases in the development process, but they're always interested in hearing what you'd like to see hit the virtual shelves of the Store. No promises, but you never know...
This topic is for requesting new box sets. There are also topics for individual shows and DVDs.
If you've already requested something in the previous Requests topic, you don't really need to request it again, but hey, if you just can't help yourself...

‘81 Europe
Can we discuss some sort of ‘81 Europe box set or releases? Some real gems in there and ‘81 is soooooo underrated!
A couple days ago on Sirius…
A couple days ago on Sirius TIGDH David Lemieux played some tunes from the 7-1-1973 Universal Amphitheater show. I was fortunate to see 2 of 3 of this 3-night run 6-29, 6-30, 7-1-1973 and was wondering if it could possibly be considered for a future small box release. The venue was brand new and still a virgin open-air outdoor amphitheater was since converted to an indoor venue. The GD was THE very first act to play there that weekend and covered a lot of the newer & as-yet unreleased material. Frank Sinatra was the "Official" first artist doing a week of shows a few days later but the Dead had already christened it in a spectacular way.
This was a short notice ticket sale event that as I recall was only listed locally 2 or 3 weeks before. I went to the box office on day of Saturday show and scored 2 front row seats on piano side of the stage with a great view of Garcia & Weir and some great interplay.
Should definitely be given a listen.
End 2023 with Watkins Glen…
End 2023 with Watkins Glen release.
2024 box set: 1974
2025 box set: MASSIVE 1985, and give us working class folk enough notice to pull the money together for it, thanks in advance.
As always a crispy Summer 82' box set someday.
1991 Box, please
The end of the Summer Tour in '91 was hot, hot, hot! So how about a box with the DVD/Blu-Ray of the 6/22/91 Chicago show, boxed up with the following three shows--6/24 & 6/25/91 (Sandstone--both shows have been played on SiriusXM) and 6/28/91 (Mile High--which was on a GD Hour)?
The three shows at the Richfield Coliseum (9/4-6/91) to kick off the Fall Tour were pretty dang hot as well . . .
Thanks for your consideration!
Road Trips style set
Especially for the later years, but you could even be more creative for lesser tapped years like 68 or 86.
how about a vinyl subscription.....
it seems to work for the CDs why not try it with vinyl? The pressing plants backlog has gotten way better why not offer 4 box sets a year (just an idea could be more/less) This would be way cooler than just something else for Record store day. Made to order type deal...this way the fans get what we want and no worries about investing in 10000 box sets that may not sell out. Id be all about it...anyone else?
GD Movie Soundtrack/Ladies and Gentleman the Grateful Dead vinyl
With next year being the 50th anniversary of 1974 why not release the 2005 Grateful Dead Movie 5 cd Soundtrack as a vinyl box set? I’d also love to see the Ladies and Gentleman the Grateful Dead 4 cd box set come out on vinyl. Both would be big vinyl box sets but I’d dish out the cash for it. Both come from 16 track recordings and would sound excellent on vinyl and look great next to my other GD box sets
Have they released anything…
Have they released anything from Alaska?
Englishtown '77
Is this ever going to be released on vinyl? Further, is there an optimal place to check for upcoming vinyl releases? Much thanks!
how's about an acoustic
5-CD box set to span the all years, different band configurations: 1970/1980/1981/1994; hint hint nudge nudge...Alfred, Warfield, Radio City, San Mateo, BCT + any others you feel are appropriate thank you for listening
Peace All!
Spring 1978
Will make a great box. Betty boards. Has the swagger.
Cheers
50 yrs
and everyone loves 1974, so BOX ME UP!
let's start with the COMPLETE shows from IOWA & LOUISVILLE,
for a total 4 shows in the box, by adding of any of these 2 (oakland, atlanta, springfield)
would leave us with nothing left to do but SMILE
Peace All!

Box Set Request
I would love to see the 1980 Warfield Theartre and Radio City Music Hall Acoustic & Electric shows as a box set. That would be amazing!
I think the Tower Theater…
I think the Tower Theater shows from Upper Darby, PA in June of 1976 would make a killer box set! Whether it’s a box set or a Dave’s picks or whatever, I think they deserve an official GD release! Thanks!
I like music because it's the only invisible art form.....
Hey rockers!!!!
Next box? Early 1969. From the OSF reels. Will include Vegas from March and the Avalon run from early April. Unless they want to hold Vegas for single release and include the Ark shows instead. Or maybe the February Philly shows? Heck, make it a mega mega box!!!!!
I have no definite talent or trade, and how I stay alive is largely a matter of magic......
Doc
You must learn to be still in the midst of activity and to be vibrantly alive in repose......
A dream
That's it exactly Doc. Just whats needed for a 69 box, after the FW supernova, shows you note, Avalon, Ark, et al first half of the year represent the mature, fully flowered primal phase. Fortunate to have some as downloads, audio issues would resolve with a most welcome update by Norman and crew. Time to revisit FW early June series, been a while.
Gents! I think an…
Gents! I think an interesting path for boxsets would be "Holiday Shows"...boxset of NYE shows across years...boxset of July 4th shows across years...
AND...
...during a recent 12 hour R/T drive with a bit of brain stimulation,...yup GOT more IDEAS lol, for BOXES, like in SETS of...
SOLDIER FIELD an easy 8-10 CD's
JUNE 28 could easily cover 8-10 SHOWS, 1967/1969/1976/1979/1983/1985/1987/1988/1991/1992
thnx :) for LISTENING!
