Hello to all of you.

My name is Kyle. I am 36 years old from the Toronto area of Ontario, Canada. I have been listening to the Dead for 22 years or so. I always had an appreciation for their music growing up. However, the extensive music collection seemed kind of intimidating from a new fan. 3 years ago, I got SIRIUSXM for free for a few months with a new vehicle and this was when I truly fell in love. Every time I hear one of their songs, it is as if I am hearing it for the first time all over again. Each performance was so very unique.
I am really stoked to join this community as I do not know many people who like the Dead.

Thank you all for being here!

Kyle

After your three months is up (or before) I recommend downloading the Relisten app. It has pretty much every Dead show that was recorded plus TONS of other stuff.

The way I mostly use though is to hit Grateful Dead and then browse through the selection of shows from today's date in various years. There are a few days where they never played a show but most of the time it will give you something new to explore.
