Performance Notes
Bob Weir and Robert Hunter only wrote a handful of songs together for the Grateful Dead, as Hunter was primarily joined at the creative hip with Jerry Garcia and Weir’s primary source of lyrics was John Perry Barlow. But the Weir/Hunter joint output, modest as it was, yielded some stunning results, and none more so than “Jack Straw.” Weir was first inspired to tackle the subject matter of Depression-era outlaws on the lam by reading John Steinbeck’s classic novel “Of Mice And Men” and again by seeing the 1939 film adaptation of the same. Hunter’s extraordinary talent for narrative and Weir’s far-reaching musical sensibilities made for a perfect match in creating a captivating piece of storytelling - a cinematic epic somehow encapsulated in the confines of a song, delivered here with power and passion by Dead & Company.

Dead & Company was formed in 2015 when the Grateful Dead’s Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann and Bob Weir joined forces with artist and musician John Mayer, Allman Brothers’ bassist Oteil Burbridge, and Fare Thee Well and RatDog keyboardist Jeff Chimenti. The result was one of the most successful touring bands of the decade. The inaugural tour kicked off in the fall of 2015 with two sold-out shows at the legendary Madison Square Garden in New York City and ended with two sold-out performances at the ‘Fabulous’ Forum in Inglewood, California.
Since then, the band has completed five tours, playing to more than 1.5 million fans, and has become a record-breaking stadium act. Dead & Company has headlined iconic stadiums across the country including Folsom Field, Autzen Stadium, Citi Field, Fenway Park and Dodger Stadium. Additionally, the band broke Wrigley Field’s all-time concert attendance record in 2017. Dead & Company’s 2018 Summer Tour ranked in the top 25 of the Top 100 Worldwide Tours and for the past two years, their Summer Tours ranked in the top 15 of the Top Global Concert Tours.
