The older I get, the more grateful I am every day that I can enjoy this music in any way, shape or form that it is presented. 45+ years ago, I never even imagined that I could, with a click of a button enjoy the music that fills my heart with so much happiness anytime or anyplace and pick any time in the history of this bands extraordinary legacy and listen or view that time. My heart saddens when I read negativity from people about the recent or current configuration/tour of what is now 'The Dead'. You either have it or you don't, and these poor souls who attempt to pollute the happiness of so many of us simply do not have it.
@Airborne Poet OP was talking about people hating on the members of the band. Very different than acknowledging some shows are better than others. The whole segment of deadheads who hate d&c and mayer. Theyre the problem.

I feel bad for people who are hypercritical and negative about this. They should do this. They shouldn't do that. They shouldn't even be playing. They look funny. What I like to do is just take it as it comes into my ears and let it speak to me in the moment. This music still speaks to me. Was it better with Jerry? Yes sure, but I saw Jerry plenty of times and he couldn't muster a quarter of this energy. This is no nostalgia act; these guys rock! The Hart/Kreutzman/Weir rhythm section is beyond solid. You have to see this in person. It is an enormous spectacle like no other. And the songs... the Grateful Dead song catalog is beyond anyone's IMO. I enjoyed this very much. I saw them both nights in Boulder last year and have tix for both nights there this year. Bill Graham had a saying, "These guys aren't just the best at what they do; they're the only ones who do what they do." It's worth still doing.
Steve Goodman When Jerry was as young as Mayer is here, he could muster far more energy than John does at these shows. I mildly enjoy these shows and have no serious criticisms, but to me they are listless compared to Dead shows.
Recent Grateful Dead fan here! I wasn't lucky enough to be born while Jerry was still here, and the dead were in their prime but I can live vicariously through their recordings and also shows like this. Thank you John, Bob and all for keeping the music alive for people like me! :)
@@jocosaway8494 I was c. 1958... so really I came late to their party too.. only heard GD once in 73, once in 95... but shocked to realize... it's still going!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But just a little advice...catch while ya can! Always try to remember the question posed to the Long Distance Runner. Im still trying... anyway, best of luck young Way.... youre going to have a better life than many.. most, and tunes are great advantage, sublime luxury... just remember to take care of yourself, everyone else included...
Fans look at Jerry through rose colored glasses. When he was on he was really good. He just wasn't always on. Especially in the early 90's when I saw him. I saw him at Cardinal Stadium in Louisville, summer of 90. He was OK but not stellar. The sets were pretty good. The opening act was Bruce Hornsby and he was great. Brent, The keyboard player died shortly after that show (speedball OD) and Bruce filled in the next tour.
I paid to see this concert on nugs for about 35 bucks in hd was off the charts, and thought it was worth every penny. Now having the ability to see it again like this is amazing. I'm Grateful
I just had one of my best naps with this going. Thank you Dead for the memories. It was a pleasure to have met you many times. You will never be forgotten.
for the deadheads that have let Mayer into the dead..... good for us he truly has stepped up and has given us a chance to have more of this music our souls need, he is not Jerry but he is on that level. With out mayer i dont think we would have these tours we love and dam they are amazing a most times THANKS JOHN MAYER FOR ALL THE SHOWS YOU HELP MAKE POSSIBLE
I'll admit I thought Mayer was totally wrong for the Dead. Well, I'm glad to admit that I was very wrong. He's the perfect man for the job, and I'm convinced that playing this music is good for his soul.
You know I just ate my words about Mayer, too. I thought he was a total douche, but watching him actually play, wow OK he fits! I was wrong! I apologize to the universe. Who knew. You don't really know a man...
Nah, he doesn't fit the part. He may be doing better than others could, but it's nowhere near the same. I can't stand hearing non Jerry like riffs changing the music.... I am not into it at all, nothing like the old days...
There is no doubting Jerry was one of a kind. There is no doubt JM is too. Why not celebrate the continuation of excellence and joy? I'm a Dead Head. I love D&C. Rock on.
There's this interview with David Crosby where he's explaining he doesn't think he's good enough of a musician to play with Grateful Dead. So nothing but respect for Mayer who taught himself to play the entire GD catalogue in all it's complexity and who's playing it well. Much gratitude for keeping this music alive. Looking forward to the show in August.
Sometimes reading all these comments, makes me think i must have gone to shows for the wrong reason. Yeah, sometimes the boys were steaming, and sometimes not. But i never cared if Jerry lost his place, or Bobby forgot a few words, or if Phil sang too much...cuz I was out there dancing my ass off, laughing my head off, just always grateful to be there. My only complaint about D&C is that I wish they would pick up the tempo to make better to dance to. 68 and still shaking these old bones
What a thoroughly delicious treat. Been on Jerry Duty since my 1st Dead show in'68. There is some exquisite music being played here. Thanks sooooo much for sharing this. Keep it up, fellas.
This performance is a master class in how to jam in an unusual time signature. I love the way they all pick it up from Weir at 15:10. The Main Ten lives!
I saw the Dead when Jerry was skinny and when he was the great pumpkin at Halloween. The Grateful Dead is never coming back....but Dead & Co are making me smile, smile, smile!
I would have never guessed that John Mayer would be Dead before I heard him play. Dead and Company does capture the authenticity of the Dead experience. I am Grateful to be able to hear them play. It brings me back and comforts my soul
Loving the mixed energy between the mature percussion, the precision keyboards by Jeff and the superior vocals by all. Bobby is better than ever as the music director and Mayer is staying true to the music without being a parrot. Oteil's bass is as melodic as you can get. I've listened to the Dead since 1970 and this is one of the best sustaining renditions of this Hunter/Barlow song. I hope they carry on.
I still have the first album which I bought in 1967. Their first 7 or 8 albums were on my turntable constantly. Then I thought they lost their way for a decade or two and I drifted away. . Finally I came to realize it was ME who lost his way, and I'm back in the fold. I still recall the shock that reverberated throughout hippiedom when they released Workingman's Dead and American Beauty, which were folky and "country". That still ranks as the most revolutionary reinvention any band has ever pulled off. Whether folky and acoustic or deep into psychedelia, The GD took us all on an epic journey. This latest reinvention is within the spirit of that joyful evolution. Long live Jerry, Pigpen, and Robert Hunter and all the dead Dead.. These guys keep the Dead alive without being a mere "tribute" band. So cool.
Along with "Mars Hotel" and "Europe '72," you've just mentioned two of my favorite albums as I only caught them live in the 70's (Woodstock doesn't count as the equipment and weather (and Drugs) ruined their performance.)
@@irecordmyselfpractice7346 the lame comparisons Jerry vs Johnny are trivial and trite . How lucky are we to have excitement around the music we loved for so long again? It was magical and was gone for 20 years and the magic and spirit has come back and it’s fun, tight, and spiritual again. You never know if the next show will be better than the last. If you want to live on the past , that’s on you, but rippin on Johnny when he’s in the hardest shoes to fill with the biggest music critics , he’s grown and is filling those shoes through hard work and humility. As in Terrapin... “His job is to shed light And not to master” I prefer to enjoy the light and we are lucky to have it now and who knows how long it will last. So cherish every second of it.
Johnny wasn’t challenged with any other music until he had this opportunity. You have to play the band , not the notes and music. And bobby loves throwing a left handed monkey wrench in the mix all the time. I did not like Mayer at first but when Bobby got sober after muerte con queso, the magic happened and gets stronger every show. Mayer deserves accolades for working as hard as he did and respecting the music and fans. What an amazing gift we have right now. Hoping PITs4 will happen.
Too all those who find the tempo too slooowww. May I kindly suggest listening in the moment instead of anticipating something that isn't coming. This music is just exactly perfect for the moment it was being played. Furthermore, this music makes me feel good like it always has. Long live the music!
I was there and it was amazing. Dancing on the beach and in the ocean and paying tribute to Barlow with an amazing looks like rain with shared tears. D&C were really coming into themselves and only just a few weeks earlier did it all just click and become special. This was the first Playin in the Sand and have gone to everyone and won’t miss it ever. It is everything you could ask for in the present day.
I love the Dead they have made me hapy since 1969 and their music echoes through out my life...a 'band beyond description'. I am so glad this latest iteration continues and I am here to hear ...
Lmao why are people even worrying about Mayer and Jerry this is Dead and Company not grateful dead. Btw Bobby sounds incredible here. Hope they keep touring for a few more years
It got special after Bobby had that awful experience at Muerte con queso and had to be taken off stage. Once he got sober , he had a vision and executed and we are so lucky to have this amazing music back in our lives. For the first time in 20 years has it become magical again where every show may be better than the last. What a gift we were given.
Its High Time you keep your Day Job cuz its Hard To Handle that Big Boss Man Gunther S. Stompton! He'll put a Slip Knot around all your Crazy Fingers so he can get with your girl Rosemary. In 9 months she's gonna Bertha out little Kattie Mae outta her Box of Pain. At that moment you'll know the meaning of being a Friend of the Devil cuz he'll say we had a DEAL....you wanted a baby girl! You'll say I Need a Miracle and he'll tell you Mr. Charlie, Death Don't have no Mercy!
I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THIS. I AM OLD SCHOOL I WAS ON TOUR IN THE EARLY 80'S. I AM ON MY BENDED KNEES. BABY READ BETEWEEN THE LINES. IT'S NOT MUSIC IT'S A WAY OF LIFE.
So boss. I feel so lucky to see them before Jerry passed but the boys are still keeping the van between the ditches and that is super impressive. Great set. I hope they keep doing it forever.
When I listen to the old stuff, it takes me back to youthful joyful times. When I listen to new stuff, it reminds me of older youthful joyful times, and twenty years from now, GOD willing, I will be listening to whoever is playing this material the most joyfully. with gladness. My memories are keyed to music, and Dead music are the keys to many happy times, and CSNY the keys to others...
I went to the first show in Albany and one each summer since - these shows are just so laid back and fun. If you cannot enjoy this set up I do not know what you need. Peace All.
Playing in the Sand was always one of my favorite Dead songs. Not as much as Tennessee Ned or St Stephanie but definitely up there with Scarlet Petunias and Cousin Bob's Hand.
Cousin Bob's Hand reminds me of a very, "touchy/feely" - type cousin of mine who never could appreciate another's personal space. Stupid Cousin Bob....
I love love love this show. This was the Barlow show and the LLR was just that special and also they had technical difficulties and so nugs fans did not get it live like I did in Mexico. After seeing it live on the beach , I ran back to my room and rewatched the same show again. I had to leave in the middle of Casey Jones sine it was the fastest I’d ever heard and I thought my heart was going to explode. The visuals were one of a kind back then and it was the best D&C show I watched and heard at the time and I hadn’t missed one since Nov 2017 and pre appendix tour. What a great moment in dead and co history. Meant the world to me at the time and re listening brings me back.
Definitely awesome shows. One of a kind experience for sure, being able to swim in the ocean and watch the show, just crazy. Plus all inclusive meant lots of good food in the venue, waiters carrying you drinks even up to the front of the crowd, though you had to go to the beer tent for craft brews (still no $$).. Barefoot on the beach is the way to go! Its good to have friends who know people :D Thanks Jeff!!!!
Dead in Mansfield Ma. Tonight!!! Hey Now!!! This will be my first time seeing the current lineup, my last Dead related show other than D.S.O. was Furthur which I loved and thought they got better every show...... I'm looking forward to tonight.
We all know the original members of the Dead are AMAZING and John Mayer rocks, great fit but, I want to give a shout out to the Oteil on bass, so damn good. You sir, you are the glue!!!!!
I remember seeing the dead 7th row for Bobby's 38 birthday at the meadowlands. Jerry made Bob sing almost every song for the 2nd set. I thought those days were over but man you can see their having fun and the music shows it
Two years without a comment on this awesome show...sheesh...i will make one...what a damn good show...and the drums/space were in particular a stand out with Jeff John and Mickey all on the key boards together at the same time. Some DNC shows are only so so , but this one is definitely remarkable.
I avoid the commentary here, but so glad I stumbled across this show.... gotta warn ya, if you have a little (9hrs) brain surgery.. you'll come out a little different,,, like anything else i guess, (like 25 y ago, my first dose of vitamin a, flipped w/ vitaman e, 4example), but realize listening to music can be a little hard, uncomfortable sometimes... but in a good way, and I have to say, listening to whats left, of the Dead, those still alive, and to see and hear who Mayer has become... helps make me (even with what feels like an ice pick stuck into my left temple, in the center of a titanium mesh patch, covering where a tumour (size of baseball) was extracted) still really like being alive..
But are you a Dead Fan?? They played some stuff Really Slow. I'm a fan of their very first recordings. I was never a dead head. Faster tempo is perfect for JM.
Absolutely loving the D&C's down tempo vibe, and the fresh harmonies, dynamics, and voicings to the numbers with which our ears are so deeply familiar. Great new life!
Yeah I agree.people bitched about the tempo for 10 years.its supposed to be a chill vibe,feel good music.not speed metal.lol.i don’t get it.peeps have to be negative about everything I guess

John Mayer's really proven to be one of the best guitars of all the time never imagined him playing with the grateful Dead and filling in for Jerry playing his own style It's incredible.
@@Kevin-fj7og finally someone agrees with me. There's a reason why mountain girl said no you're not allowed to use the grateful Dead name. Everyone was mad at her but I thought she made the right decision. Jerry wouldn't want these clowns playing under The grateful Dead name he carried the whole band like his children.
@@Kevin-fj7og my first show was in 1984 at the spectrum maybe 85 I don't remember I have to look it up and think about it. I've only seen him 100 10 times are in the hundreds maybe thousands since 72 you seen some of the real vintage shows some songs I probably never got to hear live did you ever see St Stephens live. I heard the grateful Dead at Alpine valley do it in the daytime real loud for a few minutes for a sound-check but then they didn't play it for the show it was just kind of a teaser they did.
I was there on the sand and I almost had a heart attack during that Casey Jones. You’re right , it was so fast and so fricken cool. The background video to it was way cool as well and unlike others I’ve seen. It was a special moment and one ingrained in my mind forever.
He’s Gone sounds great ! Wish they would play a few more at the Dead’s original tempo because my feet want to move a little faster but that’s just me being selfish. Rock on boys!
Sitting up here listening to UA-cam then Your Love video came on what blew me away was this song " nothing going to take me back" I do Street Ministry and wait for I get to talk to people about being homeless using drugs or anything else that will stop them doing great things thank you very much you never know where a blessing will come from and you did a great job🎉🤗🫡👍👏🙏
I will be going to see Dead And Company at Lockn later this year and I just found out that Branford Marcellus will be playing with Dead And Company at Lockn
Hello! Great band, I was so young listening to the Dead back in the day and having a great time hearing the Music live and the reefer was just flowing and I got blinded with all those Tie dye Shirts----Hello!
I had a tough time getting past Jerry, I still mourn and miss him as I am sure many others do. Though the energy this new incarnation brings, to me it is exactly what Jerry always wanted (as he would have the lights up enough to see the audience to see their energy). Jerry would always ask first about something new "Is it fun?", and yes, this version of the Dead is. With explosive positive energy bouncing back and forth and sharing between band and audience. Thank you to John, Oteil, and Jeff for bringing beautiful new life and energy to the band and to us. I know people have their favorites, and that is okay. Though it is no excuse to send hate toward the non-favorites. For me, I am thankful for every single minute I have with these guys, and with all of you..my fellow brothers and sisters.. Because it is every one of us that make up a Grateful Dead Show!! And I am LOVING Dead & Co. I hope to see you all there in the audience, I will smile and dance with any and all of you. To all of you and your families.. a wonderful Thanksgiving today, a beautiful upcoming Christmas (or other preferred holiday), and a fulfilling New Year. Wishing you all nothing except happiness, and the strength to get through the times that are not. Love Serenity Divinity.. and.. Deific Majestic Transcendence to and for everyone!!

He is Dead
Jerry Rogers no one can answer this. I guess he’s nearly perfect for the gig.
gotta be careful how you read that lol.

It was magical and was gone for 20 years and the magic and spirit has come back and it’s fun, tight, and spiritual again. You never know if the next show will be better than the last. If you want to live on the past , that’s on you, but rippin on Johnny when he’s in the hardest shoes to fill with the biggest music critics , he’s grown and is filling those shoes through hard work and humility. As in Terrapin... “His job is to shed light And not to master” I prefer to enjoy the light and we are lucky to have it now and who knows how long it will last. So cherish every second of it.
Johnny wasn’t challenged with any other music until he had this opportunity. You have to play the band , not the notes and music. And bobby loves throwing a left handed monkey wrench in the mix all the time. I did not like Mayer at first but when Bobby got sober after muerte con queso, the magic happened and gets stronger every show. Mayer deserves accolades for working as hard as he did and respecting the music and fans. What an amazing gift we have right now. Hoping PITs4 will happen.
Listened while mowing the lawn. Awesome, good vibes!
Too all those who find the tempo too slooowww. May I kindly suggest listening in the moment instead of anticipating something that isn't coming. This music is just exactly perfect for the moment it was being played. Furthermore, this music makes me feel good like it always has. Long live the music!
well said
The slower the better. You can hear the music come through
I was there and it was amazing. Dancing on the beach and in the ocean and paying tribute to Barlow with an amazing looks like rain with shared tears. D&C were really coming into themselves and only just a few weeks earlier did it all just click and become special. This was the first Playin in the Sand and have gone to everyone and won’t miss it ever. It is everything you could ask for in the present day.
Amen. Sister! See you on tour!!
It's waaaaay too slooooooow. You can have it. I don't want it.
I continually watch and listen to this song and I think I'm going to melt. My family is so beautiful and they bring me home 🏘️🌷💫
Just saw them on 7/3/18 best experience of music I've ever had! The you D&C! 🍄🚀
john and the new guitar player brings the life back into this band, i love your new sound. a mix of cal jader and calypso and good old rock and roll.
I love the Dead they have made me hapy since 1969 and their music echoes through out my life...a 'band beyond description'. I am so glad this latest iteration continues and I am here to hear ...
That’s the year my mom was born. I’m 22 learned about them when I was 14. They make me very happy
Lmao why are people even worrying about Mayer and Jerry this is Dead and Company not grateful dead. Btw Bobby sounds incredible here. Hope they keep touring for a few more years
Absolutely! I'm grateful that we can go see Bobby and the boys. I'm going Lockn again. How many more chances???
It got special after Bobby had that awful experience at Muerte con queso and had to be taken off stage. Once he got sober , he had a vision and executed and we are so lucky to have this amazing music back in our lives. For the first time in 20 years has it become magical again where every show may be better than the last. What a gift we were given.
Its High Time you keep your Day Job cuz its Hard To Handle that Big Boss Man Gunther S. Stompton! He'll put a Slip Knot around all your Crazy Fingers so he can get with your girl Rosemary. In 9 months she's gonna Bertha out little Kattie Mae outta her Box of Pain. At that moment you'll know the meaning of being a Friend of the Devil cuz he'll say we had a DEAL....you wanted a baby girl! You'll say I Need a Miracle and he'll tell you Mr. Charlie, Death Don't have no Mercy!
A perfectly valid observation
@@augustwest5273 A perfectly valid observation! Keep going JOHN, some
day you may emulate the Great One!!!!
I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THIS. I AM OLD SCHOOL I WAS ON TOUR IN THE EARLY 80'S. I AM ON MY BENDED KNEES. BABY READ BETEWEEN THE LINES. IT'S NOT MUSIC IT'S A WAY OF LIFE.
So boss. I feel so lucky to see them before Jerry passed but the boys are still keeping the van between the ditches and that is super impressive. Great set. I hope they keep doing it forever.
Mayer''s first solo in Looks like Rain is all you need to hear to know he belongs in this band.
Then there is the pointless noodling of playin that reminds me there is no going back
thanks for the memories, you guys are great. take the trip, be cool !!!!
When I listen to the old stuff, it takes me back to youthful joyful times. When I listen to new stuff, it reminds me of older youthful joyful times, and twenty years from now, GOD willing, I will be listening to whoever is playing this material the most joyfully. with gladness. My memories are keyed to music, and Dead music are the keys to many happy times, and CSNY the keys to others...
I went to the first show in Albany and one each summer since - these shows are just so laid back and fun. If you cannot enjoy this set up I do not know what you need. Peace All.
From 77 to present I embrace the new spin, as always
Same here - prime touring years in late 70’s right after Europe in New Haven, Hartford, Umass
Que buen Grupo y buen tema. Primera vez que los escucho y me han parecido Geniales. Gracias por esta Música. Felicidades desde Chile.
Can’t wait for summer tour!!!
:) me too!
Me either! See you there!!!!
See ya in Georgia!
Moshe
Hopefully lakewood is as good as last year
Moshe I would love to attend a show but the tickets are so expensive
Que bien se siente saber que la amada musica de los Dead siga Viva y Bien. Un saludo fraterno desde Carvajal, Edo Trujillo, Venezuela .
Beautiful!!! Thanks. John is playing on my subconscious mind like Jerry frequently did.
Outstanding. Brought a tear to my eye.
Pass the torch for 1000 years! this is incredible!
Playing in the Sand was always one of my favorite Dead songs. Not as much as Tennessee Ned or St Stephanie but definitely up there with Scarlet Petunias and Cousin Bob's Hand.
Sounds like someone may have been playing in the sand a little too much.
Amazing comment.
It’s the name of a show they do in Mexico annually
@@timothydonovan1261 Oh man, dude...I think you missed the hilarity and inanity of the original comment.
Cousin Bob's Hand reminds me of a very, "touchy/feely" - type cousin of mine who never could appreciate another's personal space. Stupid Cousin Bob....
The Grateful Dead just keeps on getting better! So much great energy from Mr Mayor.. So positive!
Mayer* sorry
best setlist ever composed 🌹❤️
Am listening now and so grateful.
Great vibes! Great magic being made!
That guitar John has has a beautiful sound. Two Libras Jamin and one listening. Really good jam!
This is Fantastic the relationship between the sound and use all is brilliant and very special, take care be safe and Happy New Year. Peace
I love love love this show. This was the Barlow show and the LLR was just that special and also they had technical difficulties and so nugs fans did not get it live like I did in Mexico. After seeing it live on the beach , I ran back to my room and rewatched the same show again. I had to leave in the middle of Casey Jones sine it was the fastest I’d ever heard and I thought my heart was going to explode. The visuals were one of a kind back then and it was the best D&C show I watched and heard at the time and I hadn’t missed one since Nov 2017 and pre appendix tour. What a great moment in dead and co history. Meant the world to me at the time and re listening brings me back.
What a excellent show to have uploaded ✌️❤️💀
Love that transition from Eyes>Drums/Space. A whimsical instrumental break being slowly invaded by Mickey's ominous soundboard.
Loved that subtle transition to "Fire on the Mountain" which I don't think was part of their repertoire in the 70's when I saw them live.
LOVE THIS LIST OF SONGS THEY ARE AWESOME I LOVED THEM WHEN I WAS VERY YOUNG NOW I AM OLDER I LOVE THEM MORE NOW THANK GOD FOR GREAT SONGS >
That Mayer is a beast
SOS SORDO
Definitely awesome shows. One of a kind experience for sure, being able to swim in the ocean and watch the show, just crazy. Plus all inclusive meant lots of good food in the venue, waiters carrying you drinks even up to the front of the crowd, though you had to go to the beer tent for craft brews (still no $$).. Barefoot on the beach is the way to go! Its good to have friends who know people :D Thanks Jeff!!!!
Obviously you were never there, huh? I mean a real show where you wallowed in the during a particular bout of storms in '89.
Glad you had drinks delivery. You know nothing at all.
@@paulhushon5716 no, I wasnt there in 89. But I guess that makes you special.
@@paulhushon5716 I know you're a wanker...
@@nagel616 hahaha people are too much man
Still to this day the best concert I have ever seen is Sting opening for Grateful Dead at Buckeye Lake!! Magical Night 🙂
Working from
Home 🤝 this set on repeat
seeing them on 6/23/19 at citi, so pumped
Jo Malone ooohh, you saw wolf
Dead in Mansfield Ma. Tonight!!! Hey Now!!! This will be my first time seeing the current lineup, my last Dead related show other than D.S.O. was Furthur which I loved and thought they got better every show...... I'm looking forward to tonight.
sick show!!!!! can not wait for Playing in the Sand 2022!!!!!!!!♥♥
Mid 70s mid 80s and just before Jerrmaster split the earthly realm. 3 great shows for the kid. Thanx... what a beautiful trip it still is
This music makes me feel so good, even on a Monday morning!
There isn't a day that goes by that I haven't listen to at least one Dead tune! 😊😊😊
We all know the original members of the Dead are AMAZING and John Mayer rocks, great fit but, I want to give a shout out to the Oteil on bass, so damn good. You sir, you are the glue!!!!!
oteil lays it DOWN
I'm 65, listening to the dead for yrs. Meyer makes it worth while
He's so good. Him and Oteil are perfect for the band. I don't care what anyone says. It's still Dead and the music is being played in the same spirit.
Cool little “Get Up, Stand Up” jam by Otiel and John at the beginning of Estimated Profit!
I remember seeing the dead 7th row for Bobby's 38 birthday at the meadowlands. Jerry made Bob sing almost every song for the 2nd set. I thought those days were over but man you can see their having fun and the music shows it
Love energy always an forever young the Dead & Company
Two years without a comment on this awesome show...sheesh...i will make one...what a damn good show...and the drums/space were in particular a stand out with Jeff John and Mickey all on the key boards together at the same time. Some DNC shows are only so so , but this one is definitely remarkable.
I avoid the commentary here, but so glad I stumbled across this show.... gotta warn ya, if you have a little (9hrs) brain surgery.. you'll come out a little different,,, like anything else i guess, (like 25 y ago, my first dose of vitamin a, flipped w/ vitaman e, 4example), but realize listening to music can be a little hard, uncomfortable sometimes... but in a good way, and I have to say, listening to whats left, of the Dead, those still alive, and to see and hear who Mayer has become... helps make me (even with what feels like an ice pick stuck into my left temple, in the center of a titanium mesh patch, covering where a tumour (size of baseball) was extracted) still really like being alive..
If you change the playback speed to 1.25, it’s SHOCKING how good this band is. Try it, you’ll be amazed at how much better it sounds!
This is the way
But are you a Dead Fan?? They played some stuff Really Slow. I'm a fan of their very first recordings. I was never a dead head. Faster tempo is perfect for JM.
This is the Way!
Absolutely loving the D&C's down tempo vibe, and the fresh harmonies, dynamics, and voicings to the numbers with which our ears are so deeply familiar. Great new life!
Yeah I agree.people bitched about the tempo for 10 years.its supposed to be a chill vibe,feel good music.not speed metal.lol.i don’t get it.peeps have to be negative about everything I guess
I absolutely LOVE the music
This is very nice. A friend of mine goes to this every year and wouldn't miss it for the world. we're getting pass ports. 2022 come on through!

GDTRFB
Grateful for these guys. the weight was awesome. nice take. I liked the funky little reggae riff they added to it.
THANK YOU NUGS
Needed tonight!
John Mayer's really proven to be one of the best guitars of all the time never imagined him playing with the grateful Dead and filling in for Jerry playing his own style It's incredible.
He makes that aneurysm face when he's playing. I make that face whenever I have to hear it.
I been seeing the dead since1972.out of respect for Jerry I won't listen or see this carnival.
@@Kevin-fj7og finally someone agrees with me. There's a reason why mountain girl said no you're not allowed to use the grateful Dead name. Everyone was mad at her but I thought she made the right decision. Jerry wouldn't want these clowns playing under The grateful Dead name he carried the whole band like his children.
@@Kevin-fj7og my first show was in 1984 at the spectrum maybe 85 I don't remember I have to look it up and think about it. I've only seen him 100 10 times are in the hundreds maybe thousands since 72 you seen some of the real vintage shows some songs I probably never got to hear live did you ever see St Stephens live. I heard the grateful Dead at Alpine valley do it in the daytime real loud for a few minutes for a sound-check but then they didn't play it for the show it was just kind of a teaser they did.
the fact oteil sneaks the bob marley riff into estimated is amazing
music to sooth the soul
Lovely picking guys, thank you most kindly!
When I saw the live stream, I had to get up and dance during "Casey Jones." That was the fastest, funkiest version I've ever heard.
I was there on the sand and I almost had a heart attack during that Casey Jones. You’re right , it was so fast and so fricken cool. The background video to it was way cool as well and unlike others I’ve seen. It was a special moment and one ingrained in my mind forever.
He’s Gone sounds great ! Wish they would play a few more at the Dead’s original tempo because my feet want to move a little faster but that’s just me being selfish. Rock on boys!
Insane jam. Made me smile.
Sitting up here listening to UA-cam then Your Love video came on what blew me away was this song " nothing going to take me back" I do Street Ministry and wait for I get to talk to people about being homeless using drugs or anything else that will stop them doing great things thank you very much you never know where a blessing will come from and you did a great job🎉🤗🫡👍👏🙏
I will be going to see Dead And Company at Lockn later this year and I just found out that Branford Marcellus will be playing with Dead And Company at Lockn
Joshua Sudduth ... guaranteed eyes of the world coming out with branford
This version of Brown Eyed Women is incredible.
We are lucky to have had both Jerry and John. Uncle John’s band. It’s cosmic!❤
Hello! Great band, I was so young listening to the Dead back in the day and having a great time hearing the Music live and the reefer was just flowing and I got blinded with all those Tie dye Shirts----Hello!
I had a tough time getting past Jerry, I still mourn and miss him as I am sure many others do. Though the energy this new incarnation brings, to me it is exactly what Jerry always wanted (as he would have the lights up enough to see the audience to see their energy). Jerry would always ask first about something new "Is it fun?", and yes, this version of the Dead is. With explosive positive energy bouncing back and forth and sharing between band and audience. Thank you to John, Oteil, and Jeff for bringing beautiful new life and energy to the band and to us.
I know people have their favorites, and that is okay. Though it is no excuse to send hate toward the non-favorites. For me, I am thankful for every single minute I have with these guys, and with all of you..my fellow brothers and sisters.. Because it is every one of us that make up a Grateful Dead Show!! And I am LOVING Dead & Co. I hope to see you all there in the audience, I will smile and dance with any and all of you.
To all of you and your families.. a wonderful Thanksgiving today, a beautiful upcoming Christmas (or other preferred holiday), and a fulfilling New Year. Wishing you all nothing except happiness, and the strength to get through the times that are not.
Love Serenity Divinity.. and.. Deific Majestic Transcendence to and for everyone!!
Thank you...and all the best to you and yours.
