Dead Sets
The atmosphere was electric as the sun began to set on a hot day in an iconic venue. From the opening notes of "Playing in the Band" to the culminating "Not Fade Away", Dead & Company played two sets of great songs from the Grateful Dead catalog.

The Dead were as good or better than ever! John Mayer brings true talent and energy, Otiel blew the roof off with Fire on the Mountain and Bob rocked his legacy into the next generation. In awe of the drummers as always. So glad to know that everything didn’t hinge on Jerry... this group revives the spirit of joy and celebration that I had thought was gone... I was so uplifted and grateful to know it lives on! Best concert I’ve seen in 25 years ⚡️

Greatful dead was boring for me. did not enjoy
Hardly no singing. Mainly instrumental, that went on tooooo long!! Have to be on some kind of medicine to enjoy! I like songs I can sing along with the rest of the crowd and dance. For me never again! Waste of money

Dead and Company delivers
Bobby, Mickey, Billy, Johnny, Oteil and Jeff brought the heat! 108 degrees F that day and that night made us all forget that we were on the sun. Wonderful performance by a tight and rocking band. Always grateful when I can be there. The professionalism and staffing of the venue just made it that more enjoyable.

Leave your stepping stones behind...
As good as the Grateful Dead. There, I said it. The magic is strong, and I was transported.

Tech issues distort otherwise fine performance.
I was about 5 rows of people from the stage. The stage was rather low - we were looking at them from the knee up over the monitors, But at almost eye level. There was a 60 cycle line hum that was clearly annoying Bob Weir. They played over it, but announced at the break that it should be fixed and then they'd start again, so this is kind of unusual in this era. When they came back they started to go into Drums and Space, but it was cut very short and the band came back out started playing again, so D&R was kinda used to help fix the buzz. Seats were oddly empty with several rows between the next occupied section. There were a lot of gaps. Also, the venue-themed swag was sold out after the show - one of the drawbacks of being solo in GA Pit - you can't leave, or you're not likely to get back! It was a good show and it filled an urban need for a western run, and I learned a little more about LA in getting to and from the stadium. It was a Saturday night - I had hoped they would perform, "One More Saturday Night" - my only disappointment. I think the buzz killed it.
DEAD & COMPANY IN CONCERT:
Deadheads rejoice! The Grateful Dead have been reborn as Dead & Company, delivering all the groovy vibes and extended jams fans know and love. Longtime Dead members Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzmann, and Mickey Hart are joined by superstar singer/songwriter and accomplished blues guitarist John Mayer as they blend rock, folk, funk, jazz, and psychedelia to blow fans' minds with epic aural bliss. With their spacey instrumental interplay and awe-inspiring solos, the group organically weaves their way through audience favorites like "Truckin'", "Casey Jones", and "Fire on the Mountain". The long, strange trip is back on the road -- Dead & Company are bringing their positive energy and uncanny musical genius to ticket buyers everywhere.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
The Grateful Dead were instrumental to the '60s psychedelic sound and hippie culture. Jerry Garcia (guitar/vocals), Bob Weir (guitar/vocals), Phil Lesh (bass/vocals), Bill Kreutzmann (drums), and Ron McKernan (keyboards/vocals) got things rolling in 1965. Excluding McKernan and Garcia, who died in 1973 and 1995 respectively, the core lineup has remained virtually unchanged sinc then. Many other musicians have helped shape the band’s sound as well, especially second drummer Mickey Hart, who joined the Dead in 1967. The band toured excessively throughout the ‘70s, ‘80s, and ‘90s, famously playing sets that exceeded the three-hour mark. After Garcia's death the group soldiered on, continuing to build their legacy through fearless sonic exploration. It was not until their 50th anniversary in 2015 that the Grateful Dead decided to retire their name. Fortunately for fans, their retirement was short-lived as pop singer/songwriter and blues guitarist extraordinaire John Mayer brought Weir, Hart, and Kreutzmann back out for more legendary jam sessions. Dead & Company continues in the Dead's spontaneous and inventive musical tradition -- just the way Deadheads like it.
