We are approaching our third month of quarantine and while some of the country is opening back up, it’s safe to say that the concert experience we know and love will not be back for a long, long time. Luckily, the Grateful Dead have stepped up to the plate and hit a game-saving home run with their weekly Shakedown Stream.
Every Shakedown Stream is proceeded by a Pre-Show interview or chat. None other than Bob Weir appeared with Gary Lambert and David Lemieux during the pre-show to talk about life in quarantine among other topics. Bobby remarked that defunct recordings studio, “TRI is a flying saucer on the tarmac.” Let’s hope we see some more high quality recordings from TRI this summer!
Last night, the Dead share a show from Foxboro, MA during their summer 1989 tour on July 2nd. Mass-heads knew they were in for a treat when a smiling Jerry lead the Dead in an opening “Playin’ in the Band > Crazy Fingers > Wang Dang Doodle” that felt more like a second set jam than a first set opener.
