hmmm..bound to happen. guess the LOCKN showes are a no go. GD at Phish prices. I'll have to ponder this one. Trey is an amazing guitar player..but more fan hype for the choice imho. Stu Allen and a string of shows would have been a much better choice.

The Night When Miles Davis Opened for the Grateful Dead in 1970

What’s that, you ask? Did Miles Davis open for the Grateful Dead at the Fillmore West? In what world could such a thing happen? In the world of the late sixties/early seventies, when jazz fused with acid rock, acid rock with country, and pop culture took a long strange trip. The “inspired pairing” of the Dead with Davis’ electric band on April 9-12, 1970, “represented one of [promoter] Bill Graham’s most legendary bookings,” writes the blog Cryptical Developments. I’ll say. Davis had just released the groundbreaking double-LP Bitches Brew and was “at somewhat of an artistic and commercial crossroads,” experimenting with new, more fluid compositions.

Never got to see Jerry, but I'm so glad their music still lives on and is appreciated by millions. Love seeing Ratdog, Furthur, Phil and Friends, and other dead covers. Ratdog was the first concert I went to at the age of 12, I hadn't even smoked cannabis yet, but I knew I wanted to. Bought my first inside out glass spoon, opened my eyes to where I felt at home

Tphat


April 1995 saw the commissioning of Jerry's Top Hat guitar which was very rarely played with the Grateful Dead or any other project and customized by luthier Stephen Cripe. Consisting of a walnut core with laminated cocobolo top and back, maple and rosewood neck, laminated headstock, fretboard with recycled inlays, and black Schaller hardware, the guitar was intended to be a backup copy of Lightning Bolt.

We debated on going to the farewell shows but decided not to.. The last shows at Soldiers Field were enough to put me off that place for ever.. When Jerry Sang "Visions of Johanna" the second night( I believe).. People were whispering in the crowd.. "Hes gonna die".. Glad I was there for the last shows but it was not cool for the most part at this point.. Both Jerry and the Scene...
