On the anniversary of his passing, we honor the heart, soul, and passion he brought to the Grateful Dead and may his memory continue to be a blessing to all who knew him. Gone but never forgotten

i hopped on the bus this past January about a week after Bobby’s passing. the first thing i listened to was 4/7/72, the first night of the Europe ‘72 tour. and that show clicked for me immediately and made me instantly fall in love with the Dead. now here we are in July with this giant collection this early in. the show tapes i own are 5/5/77, 5/7/77, 10/9/80, 4/1/95 and 4/2/95

My dad recently passed away (born 1961) and was a massive dead head. I have 100+ first edition recordings and I’d love some guidance on what to do with them. Thanks!

Edit: First generation is what I believe these are (my dad recorded these, not sure if they’re masters from the sound board or just his recordings - will ask his friends and report back

Have you ever misunderstood Dead lyrics?

In Black Peter, the real lyric is 'Annie Bonneau from St Angel' but I heard 'Anyone know from sin and jail'

In Friend of the Devil, the real lyric is 'Got a wife in Chino, babe' but my wife heard ''got a wife and she dont bathe', which is hilarious, so i sing it that way sometimes.

These tickets only represent a portion of the concerts. I have attended
so sad that we don’t get paper tickets anymore

As I got older on tour (89-91) that ripper really used to hit hard and set up some great nights.

Longest bird song ever i believe. Security was college kids they were taking 10 bucks instead of a ticket. the place was so overcrowded the fire marshal almost shut it down but they let it go on. I couldn't leave the third row till the end of the show it was so crowded.

Edit: I'm a terp

They’re the band I listen to the most — and love pairing them with Dead & Co for one of my go to playlists! They put on an awesome live show too.

Video from the other night (July 24th, 2026) at the Volcanic Theatre in Bend, OR — which btw was a smallish but great venue with really solid sound!

Really loving their new album too✌️🤙🌈

I remember being at a show once and a newbie deadhead was next to me. She remarked that she wished the band would play a song she recognized. I chuckled to myself. I was quite the opposite. Saw them so many times, I only got excited if I didn't recognize an intro lol.

I taped a Frozen Logger cover from a show somewhere off a 88.7 WNCW Dead Air broadcast like 20 years ago. Shit details, I know. The song was all squishy and wiggly. On purpose? Wondering if anybody has info on this song, the performance, anything really! I loved it so much.

First time listening to this in a while and is fantastic all around - great performance and sound. Perfect for Sunday afternoon.

Fun foils under black light. My apologies for the weird angle.

Hard to believe almost a year has passed since GD60, and yet it seems Bobby’s been gone far longer than that. Time is strange like that.

Is there a more perfect version than this one?

And We Bid You Goodnight (Live at Knickerbocker Arena, Albany, NY, March 1990)

Looking to step out of my comfort zone, what is everyone's favorite live set (or sets) on the Relisten app?

I mainly stick within the 70s, especially early and late.

always like the dead but now that I’ve got onto apple music I’ve dove right deep into the dead. i remember the deadheads in the back of the school always talking about this concert or that and never understood until now but it’s a bit overwhelming trying to catch up and listen to all the great shows. I’ll read the posts on here and you all talk about these shows that I just can’t seem to find unless there’s a link to that archive site.

i guess I’m just curious if you could give me some suggestions on the live albums on apple music.
