|How many shows did the GD play in '93 I know that by the end of june they
|had played 50 so I was wondering if they hit 100.
81 shows this year (Note, the recent posts about the Dead being the top
touring band said 78. This most likely didn't include the final 3-show
Oakland run. With those 3 shows included, the total gross would be >$1M
higher, but the average per show would drop, since Oakland is not a
stadium-sized arena). Yes, they did hit 50 by the end of June, but they
do 3 East-Midwest tours a year, and the summer tour ended in June, so
that tilts the average a little. They will most likely not play 50 by the
end of June this year, probably 35-40. They have not played over 87 shows
a year since 1970. The breakdown of number of shows (courtesy of DeadBase IV
{a little older, so the early years might not be as accurate as they are now}
and Eric Simon's stats for the last couple of years):
1993 - 81
1992 - 55 (Jerry illness)
1991 - 77
1990 - 74
1989 - 73
1988 - 80
1987 - 85
1986 - 46 (Jerry illness)
1985 - 71
1984 - 64
1983 - 66
1982 - 61
1981 - 82
1980 - 86
1979 - 75
1978 - 80
1977 - 60
1976 - 41 (post-retirement)
1975 - 4 (retirement)
1974 - 40 (pre-retirement)
1973 - 72
1972 - 87
1971 - 82
1970 - 145
1969 - 133
1968 - 105
1967 - 117
1966 - 104
1965 - 15

1/93 - 3 at Warfield
2/93 - 3 at Warfield
4/93 - 2 L.A., 1 S.D., 1 Warfield (am I missing one or more here?)
8/93 - 1 Seattle, 1 Portland, 1 Shoreline
10/93 - 3 Warfield, 1 Halloween @ Meadowlands

Following up to myself:

|4/93 - 2 L.A., 1 S.D., 1 Warfield (am I missing one or more here?)

|11/93 - 14 East Coast Tour

As I suspected, there were 3 Warfield shows in April, not 1. So the grand
total is: 33.
