Hey all!
Thanks, Dave & crew, for another year of 30 Days of Dead fun & community!
I hope each of you is healthy & happy and ready to rock & roll.
So fun waiting up for this treat on Halloween night to start this journey. My playground for a month! Looking forward to the many roads we're about to travel.
Re today's track, many clues in the song made it pretty much a gimme. So now I just might get some sleep tonight.
CHEERS!
Always Fun
Made my day when I woke up to 30 DoD.
PS, already one day in and no Pig. WTH? ; )
full of energy!!!
The slide is so smooth and fluid. Had fun finding this one. Had it narrowed down pretty good. Glad this first one was fairly easy to get me back in the swing of utilizing my methods.
hi y’all
hey everyone
happy november 1st
hope you had a good year. thanks dave as i have been counting down to this for a while.
so happy to be on the hunt even when you toss out one that’s easy for me.
nice to see posts from the tried and true veterans
good hunting.

happy bday d-rae
had a great time setting up the album to come on my music platform, with new art.
set up my new spreadsheet.
seems the venue / city section has been upgraded a bit. could that possibly been in response to 1 venue - 3 name problems from years past
already got msg set. these runs were key to my early education and i will never forget the explosion of joy after space in 83 when saint started.
yahoo i love this, highlight of my year, year 9 for me started out getting a handful, my record is 18, never won a prize but love listening to them as an album on road trips.
ttys my dear friends
"counting down to this for a while"
Same here, friend. I was so excited, I didn't even mind that the first song is "Passenger."
30 DOD
My only method is my DeadBase IX. Has never let me down, although my success rate is only about 33%. Still have fun, and have won the daily prize twice (calendar and a 7" single). Don't have time to "synch", no idea how to do that, and would not do it anyways. Seems like that makes it too easy, since the people that do that seem to get the right answer every day. Hope there is an "unknown location" this year. Have fun everyone!! That Grand Prize is a very sweet prize.
Looking...
I try and narrow it down after a listen, then hit Deadlists. That usually helps to narrow it down further, then I hit the Archive.
11/1 finally here
and it's like a hit of fresh air. Good to see all the regulars (and new folks too). Good luck to all and have fun!
And away we go again!
Welcome back everybody for year number 13! I never think I have the stamina to do this again, but it always starts on my birthday and I get sucked right in. Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines!
Another circle round the sun
Happy b-day D-Rae
Its mine as well.
Just picked the show, now off to dinner & a movie - GD 1972 Movie!
Site was mean to me
I submitted my guess, it failed with an error, then I immediately hit submit again, and I think it took it. Then it woudn't let me post this comment. Had to clear my browser history, which for some reason took forever. But day one is done!
Here we go!
Been doing this since the beginning. I sure hope after all these years I can win a day for a change. Maybe this is the year. I keep telling myself that. lol. It's all good fun anyway. lol
At This Show
If I guessed right that is.
And also was my 5th show?
Cheers and good to be back
And they're off!
Greetings to all of you 'Usual Suspects'! Looking forward to the banter in the comments, and good luck to all.
And the annual shout out to D-Rae. Happy Birthday!
Love the early songs
Spin the clock back a year or 2 and let's hear a Godchaux version, por favor. Good bass sound on this one.
Damn, I sure love it when November rock and rolls around
Sorry to say but I have never been able to identify shows like so many Deadheads but, at 72, every song bring a wide smiling grin to my old mug! Thanks to all involved.
Welcome Back!
Hey Now, great to be back in the land of the 30 days. Good to see so many ol' faces here!
It's the most wonderful time of the year!
Oh how I love participating in worthwhile fun. Hope all has been well with you and yours!
I Suck at This!
I suck at this but I'm glad it's back for the 13th year! I refuse to use the digital tools available to narrow down the answer... Let's go...
Off to a good start
I think I got this one... a few clues really helped to narrow down the search. An easier one just means I will spend too much time trying to solve the daily puzzle for the rest of the month.
Favorite Month of the Year
Hard to believe this is still happening. Love this every year. Rarely am able to guess but enjoy the songs.
Sliding right in!
And so good to be back. Loving that slide guitar and smooth organ - and especially looking forward to some choice comments from the rest of y'all. Onward!
The Only Game In Town Indeed!
Grate to be back and grooving righteously this penultimate month of 2022.
Thanks to Dave and all the generous music meisters behind the scenes who put this on every year, and welcome back everyone and anyone who joins us this year. No hints, just thanks!
The Whole World Is Burning
I love 30 Days of Dead! I was a rookie last year -- and I was a bit rusty at first on this one -- but I remembered most of my techniques from last year and nailed it! I was able to use a certain verbal clue to reach my destination!
As others have mentioned, definitely the only game in town!
That was a gimme
Was looking forward to a deep dive today. Got it on my first shot. I'm sure I'll look back on this fondly at some point this month.
always nice to start off with a softball
pretty easy to find/narrow down
30 Days, the only game in town
This destination I saw fairly clearly.
Love the 30 Days starting up again!
Takes the mind off all the painful political BS.
Wish our politicians had nothing to hide.
Good luck all
Submission
How do I know if my guess was correct (first time player, long time dead fan)?
Welcome Aboard
They'll give the answer at midnight when they put up the next day's song. Good luck with and have fun!
Long time, first time
God I love November, been Playin' for a few years but never join in the banter. Happy November everyone!!!
This is my Year
I've been playing since year one, and though I may not get every day, I get a lot, and never won. I feel it this year...!!!!!
Selecting winners
"First correct answer" is definitely not a criterion. I remember reading in the breakdown on the landing page that one winner is randomly selected from each day's correct answers.
1stshow70878 — some are into catching it when it drops...
...that's because the "wee hours" to some, are midnight rambles to others.

Grateful Thanks
A little change, the wind and rain. As Autumn falls, we are thankful for this month of listening, downloading and guessing about one of our favorite pursuits! Thanks!
Right up da road a piece....
... but I was only 10 years old (a day short of that anyway). Yep, this one was not too far from Holmes. It's all about the drum(mer) roll(s) right before the gtr solo wow... The crisp right up front tone on that slide to follow in the solo. Some Lowell-like moments. Have fun! So glad this is back again! Good to see the people!
Edit to add: The displaying of comments is always a crazy learning curve. When you are on the 30 DoD main page (url dead dot net slash 30daysofdead) you may see the recent comments. But if you click into the day's particular song (red song title above the player on the main 30 DoD page) then you can choose options of viewing the comments and.... they may actually work... or not. Hey it's all fun. I tried selecting "ALL" from the drop down for views of comments but was denied (kept showing only 3). Then I tried "50" option. Success! All comments showed. Then I tried "ALL" and "ALL" then worked ok!. Hope that helps.
And for newcomers, the REPLY underneath a person's comment may have different results than the red "POST COMMENTS HERE" on the main 30 DoD page. As well the "ADD NEW COMMENT" section you see once you are "clicked into" the particular day's song page. It is a strange layout but you (almost/never ha) get used to it! Have fun!
Grateful Diversion
Such a nice change of pace compared to the political hate speech and mud slinging going on right now. With that said, my submission was a total guess. Since it was a Seattle show, I figured it might be an omen...
30 Days 2022
Really do like this time. It brings many oh's and aha's . In addition, helps with my GD lore. Unless I was in attendance or by way of hearing it before and knowing the hint there won't be many guesses here. I miss my DBaseIV & JGB I- darn burglar. Anyhow, everybody have a joyous day, everyday. In Light.
30 days. Day 1
So I can hear Midland but got no other clue than that decade………
Thanks for continuing the 30 Days of Dead releases.
In the past a file was included which contains info about the show like date, place. It's useful to have this created as part of the download so it can be added to music apps like Music on macOS. Of course it's not hard to get it off the web site though. Or more conveniently, to create the MP3 files with the info embedded in the tag/metadata info.
Senior year of College [Not Lafayette] I finally got on the bus.
Friends came down to see the show as well. I've been recommending this show, and in fact that entire beginning of Brent's first tour. Check them all out, and you won't be disappointed.
I'm pretty proud I got the year right.
