Grateful Dead tribute band, Joe Russo’s Almost Dead started their long strange trip a little over 8 years ago. Russo gathered the gang for the first time on January 26th, 2013 at the Brooklyn Bowl during the 2nd night of Freak Ball XIII.
For the first show at the gate, JRAD showed incredible chops and command of the Dead catalogue. After the opener “Bertha” there was no doubt that this wasn’t just another Dead cover band.
