Joe Russo’s Almost Dead (JRAD) isn’t your typical Grateful Dead cover band. The setlists might appear similar, but the music is interpreted with a renewed, high-energy take on the beloved catalogue. The songs have a familiar feel, but the expression is something far beyond the norm. The supergroup of musicians made up of Joe Russo […]

There was magic in the air of San Francisco over the last three days, with a high concentration centered in Golden Gate Park. Sixty years ago, a band beyond description was born that would forever alter the course of music history, in no particular way but their own. Celebrating 60 years of the Grateful Dead, […]

Anticipation was shattered the second song of set two last night. The highly hoped for notes of “Tweezer” were not simply teased as they were during the first set “Gumbo” but sent in a rather wild manner, catapulting the sold-out Bill Graham Civic Center into a frenzy that only “Tweezer” can bring. But that was […]

King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard returned to Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado on September 8th, the night before they would play two shows on Monday, September 9th at Red Rocks. On the backend of the first leg of a blistering U.S. tour, Gizz has been leaving its mark on each tour stop. At […]

Phish wasted no time last night (August 1st) at Madison Square Garden (MSG), stepping to the venerable stage for the 76th time and launching into a fiery “Ghost” that set the tone for a memorable Tuesday show in New York City. Continuing their seven-show MSG residency to cap Summer tour 2023, “Ghost” foreshadowed the night’s […]

There’s something to be said about going out on top. Of course, it’s natural to wonder why stop now, what really happened, how did we get to the final show? Regardless, after last night’s finale for Dead & Company the band reached a pinnacle. Playing as a cohesive unit throughout the night, the arc of […]

If you happened to be lucky enough to be in attendance for Monday’s show on 4/17/23, there is no explanation for why the Greek in Berkeley is so special, to so many is needed. What a night. After a singular historic show back in 1993, and a surprise run of three in 2010, this current […]

Bob Weir recently celebrated his 75th birthday, but there’s no sign of the legendary musician slowing down his long strange trip of sharing live music with the world. Bobby wasted little time upon taking the stage Wednesday, October 19th at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno, NV

Some shows have IT. Hanging out near section 104 last night (4/21/22), preshow, watching original Phish artist Jim Pollock sign various pieces of his work, raising money for the Waterwheel Foundation (Insert link), one couldn’t help but feel the vibes were tuned up for a special night. As it goes, when you walk into the […]

Night after night, throughout the whole of Fall tour 21’, Phish has been on fire. If you chat with anyone who’s attended shows or been listening in on streams, they will most certainly agree. Reaching yet another new high watermark, the band that has been playing live music together for over 30 years has longtime […]
