I like to imagine that this is sort of like the State of the Union for jam bands where one band is not allowed there and secured in a safe, secret location so that if terrorists hit, utter shit music can live on.

We've got a bunch of old timers and then 3rd and 4th tier jam bands plunkin' away at Dead tunes. No way this is better than Fare Thee Well, hutch. Can you imagine the reggae version of St. Stephen that OAR slays, chills!!!

I love Los Lobos, but them playing a seven minute Bertha doesn't make up for the other four hours of music.

and the idea of seeing Kreutzmann, Lesh, Weir and the rest paying tribute in their own way in their own projects appeals much more to me than seeing them in a fake "Grateful Dead"

The Grateful Dead died when Jerry died...

Stay off the drugs Yada...seriously. This is a great lineup in a great venue that JERRY PLAYED REPEATEDLY with the JGB  and you know what? Its in our area!

We can wait for further info to see how long acts will play.. heck maybe they'll have two stages..at this point we don't know...

but Soldier Field, to me, compared to this seems like a ROOT CANAL.
