Last year, subscriptions went up on October 27th. ETA: I don’t know why I went back to find the receipt for my order in my email when I could have just checked the first post of this thread.
Last pick of the year is whatever DL wants, I think the past couple years has proven it to be a wildcard…….so late 80’s or 90’s is my guess. DaP 45 will be a strong release (& 46 w/ bonus disc (announced before the subscription sign up period ends) to drive sales.
Welcome to the world of Led Zeppelin where whole crucial tours are completely missing or only represented by nasty audience tapes. Of course I am also feel the pain as I would like to hear more '70 Dead as well.
He’s Gone 3/26/73. A DaP #49 highlight if not THE highlight. The outro reminded me of a warm buttermilk biscuit. The kind you’ve already had two of during Thanksgiving dinner but go back for more after the tryptophan kicks in.
Last picks of the year: Vol. 4: 1976 Vol. 8: 1980 Vol. 12: 1977 Vol. 16: 1973 Vol. 20: 1981 Vol. 24: 1972 Vol. 28: 1976 Vol. 32: 1973 Vol. 36: 1987 Vol. 40: 1990 It's not like a later years show is a guarantee here.
Looking at the last two years, though, combined with the releases we've already seen this year, makes it more likely IMO.
I believe almost all of that stuff was recorded to multitrack, so not eligible for Dick's or Dave's Picks.

So the past few years have had 2 post KD Picks but looking back that's not a guarantee. Nerd out!
I believe this 1979 show was post-K&D (Chicago 12-3-79). This definitely shows the trend towards the Brent years. Two Brent shows in the first six years, then six Brent shows in the last four years, but I think the current boxset should absorb the Brent quota for the next 12 months or so.
How dare they represent half their performing career with 7 out of 43 releases. I need to speak to a manager...
Nice. Good catch, thanks. Someone might also notice that the 2nd release in 2013 was actually a mix of 69 and 70. Here at the Grateful Thread we are determined(ish) to getting it right. I'm sticking with my Frost 88 bet. Gotta pick something...
Yeah, of course. I meant that particular show. I’ve not heard it. Also, just the one show, no double-feature.
Maybe some filler from 6/24? But yeah, a non-double header summer 90 show after last year's double header summer 90 shows makes this a little lackluster.
Like Dave’s 22 & 26. Back to Back so so late 71 shows with weak bonus discs. We get a great Dave’s 43 and then this?!?!
It seems like most people were predicting a Vince pick. Some people predicted 1988 or 89 but I don't think anyone was expecting another summer '90 show.
