Phil Lesh is making a handful of festival appearances this season starting with the annual Grateful Dead themed Skull and Roses festival in Ventura, CA. The 82 year young Lesh lead the band which also included Grahame Lesh, Stu Allen, Jason Crosby and John Molo.

To kick off the set, Phil and Friends treated Ventura to “Mississippi Half-Step > Franklin’s Tower.”
