Daily game - guess the GD show year
Forums:
Anybody been playing this? A lot more straightforward than the 30 Days of Dead that David Lemieux runs in November, and very satisfying to get it right, especially on the first or second try. It's been a good daily ritual along with MapTap.

Some days are just killer, like today with a Drums, but usually there are enough clues to at least get pretty close by the 4th attempt. Also fun when it randomly pulls in an Acid Test tape that's on the Archive under GD -- those ones are pretty easy to nail.

Up 'till around '87/'88 I'm pretty good at this. After that it's all just kind of noisy, mainly deciding who's playing keys and then throwing a dart at a year.
But the one with just drums, and mostly with just Billy diddling around, is dumb. To do this right we have to hear the whole band.
I like this better than the map game. Probably because I know the GD much better than I know exactly where odd places in the world are.
Good thing I wasn't a pilot.

Guessed on second try today. I agree it's best to hear the whole band for this game, very difficult with just a minute of drums.

First time on the site
First time on the site yesterday heard Louie Louie, clearly not Garcia or Weir. Joey Covington on lead vocals, 6/7/69 w/Jorma & Jack, thanks setlists.net. Garcia sings JBG, 1st of 279.

Me too. I got in on the third try a couple of days, and then just tanked the one with drums, so maybe I don't suck as bad as I thought.

Got it on the second try today. A more active form of listening seems to be the key.

Jerry's tone got thinner when he switched to the Cripe Lightning Bolt guitar around 93-94. Tiger and Rosebud had more 'bite' to them imo.

Definitely true. And of course going back further, Wolf had more bite than either of them, especially when it first came back in fall 77 into spring 78.
