Bon Jovi has played more than the Dead. I'm wondering if another group has more.

Throughout their career, the band have released eleven studio albums, two compilation albums and one live album, and have sold over 120 million albums worldwide.[7] They have performed more than 2,600 concerts in over 50 countries for more than 34 million fans,[8] and were inducted into the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2006.[9] The band was also honored with the Award of Merit at the American Music Awards in 2004,[10] and as songwriters and collaborators, Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora inducted into Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2009

I can't find a set answer but my guess would be Bob Dylan and his various bands. He began in the early 60's and...

"The Never Ending Tour is a popular name for Bob Dylan's ceaseless performing schedule since June 7, 1988. During the past twenty years, musicians have come and gone and the band has continued to evolve. Dylan's touring schedule has not been diminished by his age—he turned sixty-eight in 2009 and still plays around 100 shows a year....According to the count maintained by Olof Bjorner's Dylan web-site Still On The Road, Dylan played his 2000th show of the Never Ending Tour on October 16, 2007, in Dayton, Ohio."
