Aren’t there already like a infinite number of Dead box sets out there? And lots of them audiophile and under $200? This shit is gonna probably be close to or over $300

The Dead.net crowd will be alerted through the vibes and come running for this. They will pay literally whatever VMP decides to charge bc that is the only band many of them listen to.

Edit: I'm not even joking. The Porch Crusher and the Europe '72 travel trunk sold out quick. If this is $350 it won't even be close to the most expensive Dead set.

Oh damn, I came on N&G to see what the deal with the Grateful Dead post was, thinking it was a ROTM, but a full box set....wow. Ironically if it was a single album release I would of gone for it no doubt, but im just not familiar enough to go in on a box set. Guessing it will be a pricy one....

Yeah, I’ll be honest. I have both the Europe 72 and thirty trial around the sun CD box sets, I got both slightly used off Craigslist and still paid close to 800 for the two of them. And that’s considered a good deal

Yeah that is actually a steal. I have no idea why I have as much Dead stuff as I do. There is just something about them. And they are marketed VERY well.

I got lucky. The woman had it because a friend gave it to her and she didn’t want it I guess. Was very happy to get it for the price. But same. I used to have a spreadsheet with all the dead shows I own and I stop updating it because it made me realize no one needs this much of one band. But they are a band worth loving. You a phish fan at all?

What if it's just dead studio albums?

I'm actually really curious on what this could be. There is already a Warner box set out of the studio albums, and they have been reissuing them for their anniversaries the last few years with new remasters and bonus live content. Considering that those are really inexpensive, a Dead studio box would not be worth purchasing IMO. Plus the Deadheads are not going to shell out for a studio album redux when they consider those almost novelties anyway and already have them.

But then comes the live stuff- the full live shows is the domain of the Dave's Picks; plus whenever they have issued a full concert on LP it has RARELY listed for <$100. So I don't think we are getting full shows. Rarities? Covered in full with comps.

I think it is going to be a chronological live document of cherry picked performances from '66 to maybe '91. And honestly that could be great. I'm usually up for full sets but those don't translate well to vinyl side flipping just to get through another god damn fucking El Paso or a Looks Like Rain that they were going through the motions for or 15 min of Donna caterwauling into the mic at the end of a Playing In The Band that was up until that point, enjoyable.
