Counted from cover credits on each show page. Two special shows are excluded β€” the 4/20 "Dogs Play Dead" launch party and a private all-Dead set (0 more Dead-family covers between them) β€” because leaving them in would say more about two setlists than about a year of shows.

Only the 15 shows where every song carries the band’s own timing can compete β€” a show missing one length would lose on missing data, not on music.
