Deadhead

Plays entire live Grateful Dead shows from archive.org, randomly, one after another.

Listen to full, live, Grateful Dead concerts from archive.org's library of thousands of fan-recorded shows. Each show is picked randomly, one after another, displaying its venue, date, and setlist while it plays. It even displays the ticket or backstage pass from that show, if psilo.com has an image archived.Deadhead also keeps a history of the shows you have listened to, and allows you to flag your favorites, so you can easily find them to listen to them again. If you do not like a show, you can skip to the next one. Great for a party, or background music at work or while you study. UPDATE 1.2 ADDS RATDOG, FURTHUR, PHIL LESH AND MICKEY HART BAND.

Staff review

This does as it says and is an interesting way of providing access to the Grateful Dead shows and the other artists it now supports (via it's media library view). It will clear your playlist (due to how it works) but you are prompted first which is nice. Not much else to say.

A great little plug-in that does exactly what it says.I hope the author, arods.island, is not some corporate thing because I want this to stay alt and relevant, like The Dead.-dh4L - March 29, 2011 by KBizzle
