Warren Haynes to Lead Symphonic Celebration of Jerry Garcia


This summer Allman Brothers Band guitarist Warren Haynes is teaming
with distinguished symphonies like the Boston Pops and the San
Francisco Symphony to bring the music of Jerry Garcia to fans in an
entirely new way. The collaborators will approach the late singer’s
original compositions and Grateful Dead hits at nine different halls
and amphitheaters across the country.

Haynes is certainly no stranger to Garcia and the Dead music. He
toured with the Dead, playing guitar when Bob Weir, Phil Lesh and
company toured in the late-’00s. He’s been playing shows with the
remaining members since Garcia died in 1995. Garcia’s family is
curating the experience, which begins on June 18 in Pittsburgh, Pa.

A full list of shows is below, and ticket information is available at
JerryGarcia.com. Notable dates on the itinerary include the July 30
show at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado, and the Aug. 1 date —
which would have been Garcia’s 71st birthday – in his hometown of San
Francisco. Haynes’ show at the Davies Symphony Hall that day and on
Aug. 2 is sure to be special.

The June 20 show in Raleigh is not yet on Garcia’s website, but was
confirmed in a press release.

Tanglewood is a great venue. I saw the Who and Jethro Tull there in 1970. I also went to numerous BSO concerts, including an epic Rite of Spring ca. 1977 with Seiji Ozawa.

But I'm going to pass. Not a WH fan on this material and the opportunity for it to just be a self-indulgent maudlin affair is too high. Now if it were Nels Cline or Bill Frisell, that would be a
different story.

Maybe free sushi, and you'd have a deal!

This outfit is playing at Wolftrap in VA. Pass, and I'm a big WH fan (though not with Further).
