30 days, no Pigpen, for shame!!!!

Nice, three Dark Stars this year, all very different versions. Goes to show the improvisational power of the band. I like this third offering the best but they're all really cool. Thanks for the tunes Dave and Co. - you're very generous. We're grateful. Good luck and see you all next year!

Isn't there supposed to be a zip file with the whole 30 days today?

It's been real folks, as always. If you have used archive (dot) org, please make a contribution. See you next year!

Looking forward to next year already!

The fastest 30 days of the year. See you all in November '24!

When I saw we were going out on this monster Dark Star and looked at all the possibilities I was ready to spend the better part of the day searching. But I really lucked out and nailed it on the first try. Thanks for another great month of music Dave. I'm putting the Deadbase back on the bookshelf. Have a great year everyone. Be safe! See you back here on my birthday in 11 months. And remember: if you get confused, listen to the music play!

I thought I'd jump right to that legendary tours, the sound is right but look like this one is not there or maybe its just a synching issue. I'll have to dive in after work and an important medical procedure for a loved one. Send some energy my way.

Thank you, Dave - and everyone who makes this yearly celebration happen! And my best to all the Deadheads who traded tapes with me way back when and helped foster my passion for this incredible band - and to those who I have yet to meet who continue to keep the fire burning.

Thanks once again for putting this together and uniting everyone here. Found some new favorite shows and Dead knowledge. See you all next year.

I LOVE you Jerry!!!!
I MISS you!!!!
Thanks Dave!!!!

Mahalo to Dave and everyone here! Feel like I'm on tour again! This is truly a grateful gift every year. Take care, be safe, and be kind...

So here we are 11/30/23 and you have done it again Dave...30 Special days of Audio Bliss....Thank You, Thank You!, Thank You!!!!...See Ya All Next Year...

First time I've gone 30 for 30! Thanks for all the tunes, Dave & Co.

was different with the huge amount of music released, and some of the hints were definitely helpful compared to years passed. The multi song suites were a joy. Thanks to all! I wonder how many of you other players I live near or have met at shows over the years.

I really enjoy and appreciate this every-November Christmas gift. 30 Days Of Dead is an event I look forward to all year long every year. In fact, I have a reminder in my calendar every Halloween thru Stardate 41153.7 to remind me of the next day's Treat! So...thanks and Happy Holidays to all Deadheads everywhere!!!

Thanks dave and the staff at dead net for an awesome month of fun.
Thanks to all my tour mates who kept it interesting and intense.
Never had such a good time.
Till next year everyone be blessed with peace love and happiness

Another great November. Big thanks to Dave, the good folks at jerrybase as well as the Every Dark Star Blog, the Grateful Dead Guide and all the other amazing GD related stuff out there. November is always a great reminder that aside from 1965-1995 there's never been a better time in the history of the universe to be a deadhead.

Thanks, Dave, for another fun November. Leaving us on a doozy!

Crazy how times fly. As usual, send me a DM if you're interested in the DeadSheet tracker. Thanks to all and have a great end of year.

Getting drawn into listening to the entire show of a previous year's 30 Days selection helped me out here a lot.

Until next year!

Thanks to all that provided the music and those that participated in the game. See ya'll next year, or on the Dave's Subscription threads.

What a great November it's been! See you all next year.....

Another great and fun 30DoD, thanks to everyone involved! Wanted to note that today is the 50th anniversary of my first GD concert (Dick's Picks 14). Dark Star continues to evolve, notable recent versions I've heard were the "Dark Star on the Big River" from Fenway this past June, and one from Weir's band with the Willie tour in Mansfield MA this past September. It persists.

Thank you for a real good time with everyone this year. I enjoy reading everyone's comments and thank you all for the connection to our shared past. Being part of this family has been one of the most fun and monumental of my life. And many thanks to 30 Days of Dead for bringing us together for a month every year! This year has been the easiest, and I see that is true for many of us so it is not just that my ear has improved over the years!! Ah well.

Be kind and keep safe everyone! See you next year everybody - I'm already looking forward to it and cannot wait!

Didn't listen enough before starting my search. Easy once I figured out which tour. This is a damn near perfect DS. Just the way I like them.
Cheers all

People ask why no Pigpen songs every year. There must be some limitations on what they can give away, especially cover tunes. I don't believe there's ever been a NFA, for example.

Farewell fellow Deadheads!!! Its been a wonderful November once again.

Not to be Debbie Downer, but I fear next November may be a darker time.

Pun intended with back-to-back Dark Stars. Thank you for another real fun time.

This was so much fun again this year. Thanks!

30 Days is always a special treat.

Incredible - three Dark Stars this year! This one was a surprise for me, especially given that it was sandwiched in this concert between two songs that I would never had associated with this most essential psychedelic Dead. Transitional period indeed!
November has gone by way too fast. Thanks to Dave and all of you for sharing once again this incredible time and music.
Peace.

For a real good time!

I was a little nervous about this one but a couple of great hints let me get this one on the second try. Well done all.

for the hours of music and for giving everyone a chance for the big fish. I was miserable with COVID yesterday so I missed it but got right every other day but 2 because of business. Easiest year ever by far. I even managed not to go off on a rant about box set fiascos. Maybe next year. Peace be with you and peace is always in.

yesterday's Dark Star was somewhat foreboding and cavernous, I found today's version uplifting, close and beautiful.

Perfect sync-up to sail-out on. Shall we go, you and I?

Thanks Dave & Co. for all the goods. See y'all in 2024.

bs embeds

just checking

I had so much to share with you all- sorry

I was 0 for 3 on the “iffy” venues issues- gonna have to guess differently next November!

Today’s DARK STAR is why- it’s what it’s all about

You all stay safe and happy until we meet up again. And thanks for another great November, Dave…

Miles from home. No computer and phone just won’t stream most of the time. I give up.

Definitely SURREAL.... The complete show is outstanding. Thanks Dave and all involved with 30 DoD it's been another GRATEFUL time. I wish all DEADHEADS who take the challenge each day the best in the future ahead of us. When reading all the comments there's times I feel as if I had been standing alongside y'all at this or that show. JUST DON'T NEVER NEVER KNOW, no no.
Stay HEALTHY!

Sad to see November end.

Wow, another 30 Days come and gone. How sweet it is to have shared it with you all! This truly is a special tribe that wanders back home here every November. Until we’re blessed to converge again further on up the road, peace and love and health to each of you!

And to the band, and Dave and everyone behind the scenes—THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart! What a particularly stellar year this 30 DoD has been! And EVERY year you make my heart grow bigger! Cheers!
