someone told me the dead were touring with a new front man... i was really siked but i cant find any shows on jambase or anything. anybody know anything about it?
The dead is the remaining members of the Grateful Dead, and I can tell you the combos who have filled Jerry's position, if not his shoes. Ratdog and P&F have heavy schedules, and Mark said he thinks the doggie will be through Colorado this fall. (we try to catch up with each other: I know him through another band. Sweet guy) Given that, the chances of a Dead tour are tiny. I'm afraid your source is wishful thinking!
the dead, play with jimmy herring.....he plays Jerry's parts....maybe thats who your speaking of.....i'm preying for a NEW YEARS BASH, just like in 03-04.....what a great two shows....
Barry Sless of David Nelson Band was also at RR with Herring, sort of the Warren Haynes position. Sless is like Kimock...very astral and spacey with a LOT of talent backing it up. Amazing pedal steel player. Millownotme, there is plenty of life after Dead! see the music forum for jam bans, and start your shopping list. Or pick up a Relix magazine. www.relix.com
Well if they ever do, I'm sure theirs plenty would be more thna pleased to assist, unless of course your of to the wilds of nowhere.
