Phil Lesh and his crew just finished a whirlwind three-day run that included some of the top venues in NYC. The run started in Central Park, then headed up north to The Capitol Theatre and then last night, Phil, The Terrapin Family Band and his crew of friends and special guests hit up Harlem and played a benefit show at the legendary Apollo Theatre.

With the November mid-terms right around the corner, Headcount is out in full-force, getting the word out to vote. Billed as a benefit concert for Voter Participation, Phil was joined by The Family Terrapin Band and was joined by special guests including Eric Krasno, Nicki Bluhm, Talib Kweli, Robert Randolph and The Harlem Gospel Choir.

Phil, always up for a new crew of friends, treated Harlem to two sets of Dead and a handful of covers including a few Bob Dylan tunes.
