A very nice sounding folk/acoustic gig by the Jerry Garcia Band from August 1987 http://www.wolfgangsvault.com/playlists/jerry-garcia-band-08-29-87/playlist-459360.html - great musicianship, and decent sound quality - yay!

Hahahahahahahaha.... Thanks A! Do me a favor though say a little prayer or whatever reflective thing you do for my taping buddy since 1986 who's under the knife right now getting a cancer removed from his hip. His favorite line has always been "God is good to Deadheads, fools and drunkards. And I have the first two covered". Let's hope that really IS the case.

It would totally suck to have to say goodbye or know out of this, I will soon. We've seen HUNDREDS of pretty damned significant moments in music history together ... the following among them...

Thanks skip, a great version of Traffic’s old tune. I’m afraid I’m an unbeliever (to alter that old line by the Monkeys) so don’t exactly pray but send your old pal my best wishes and some positive thoughts.

Members of Hold Steady, Vampire Weekend, more join Jerry Garcia tribute live-streaming this Friday

As those of you on the golden road (to unlimited devotion) already know, today would have been Jerry Garcia’s 70th birthday. And while the beloved Grateful Dead frontman is no longer sitting on top of the world, he’s still got plenty of friends truckin’ on his behalf, seventeen years after his death at age 53 of a heart attack.

Dead guitarist Bob Weir has announced that his TRI Studios will be live-streaming a Jerry Garcia tribute concert this Friday for the occasion. The high-definition webcast will be emceed by actor Luke Wilson and viewable at both TRI’s site and at Yahoo! Music starting at 6:30 pm PST, and feature a range of fans and friends.

So far, the announced roster includes indie-rock favorites like Hold Steady members Craig Finn and Tad Kubler, Vampire Weekend-er Chris Tomson, and California songwriter Cass McCombs, as well as folk-slash-jam artists like Phish vet Mike Gordon, psych dude Jonathan Wilson, and Willie Nelson and Paul Simon offspring Lukas Nelson and Harper Simon — all be headed by Weir.

Additionally, Carlos Santana will pay his respects to Garcia through a video interview, and David Crosby will read “I’m Missing Him Tonight,” a tribute he wrote specifically for the late head of the Dead.

The Grateful Dead at 710 Ashbury in San Francisco.
