Phil Lesh Returns To Capitol Theatre For Nine Night October ‘Phil-O-Ween’ Run

Remember that time a now 78-year-old Mick Jagger recorded the lyric, “What a drag it is getting old?”

Phil Lesh, who turned 82 yesterday (3/15) continues to prove age doesn’t matter and that octagenarians can rock on with the announcement of another run of Halloween shows, billed as Phil-O-Ween, at The Capitol Theater in Port Chester, N.Y.

The former Grateful Dead bassist announced yesterday on his birthday that a yet-to-be-revealed incarnation of Phil Lesh and Friends will take up residence for nine nights – marking his 100th performance at the storied venue – October 14-16, 21-23, and 28-31.

Tickets for Phil-O-Ween go on sale Friday, March 25 at 9:00 a.m. PST here.

It’s really quite fascinating that in 2022 there are many musicians still going strong in their 80s, including four for whom the road goes on forever.

Bob Dylan continues his unofficially-named Neverending Tour with 20 more dates this year between March 16 and April 14, Willie Nelson has 17 tour dates booked from March 20 to August 6, Buddy Guy has 30 dates on this year’s calendar between March 16 and September 16, and Herbie Hancock continues to “rock it” with 25 dates this year from April 24 to Aug. 10, including a 21-show European tour this summer.
