     Back when the Grateful Dead were still kicking and touring, one popular book among the faithful "Dead Heads" was Deadbase - The Complete Guide to Grateful Dead Setlists. 

During the time Jerry Garcia was still alive, and starting sometime around ’87 when the first edition of DeadBase was published, fans could refer back to Deadbase to reminisce about songs performed, hardcore fans into trivia could use the dbase function to learn how often or not a song had been performed, tapers could better identify and label tapes by cross-referencing Deadbase, and you could settle debates as to who remembered what really happened that night you made a illegible setlist found crumpled up in the bottom of your rucksack..
