Ahhhhh, those back up and lead vocals on Crazy Fingers are luscious and delightful, Love the way Warren phrases his verses png West LA. This is just outstanding in every way.

Thank you for posting. I listened to this show the night it was broadcasted. But I can listen to again and again. How Rolling Stone left Warren off its top 100 guitarists list is beyond me.
Fell in love w Warren the summer he toured w the Dead…whatever iteration that was…The Other Ones, I think? Saw a bunch of shows w him and ended up going out and buying some of his solo stuff. Amazing. Singing, playing…love the guy!!!
Bobby's rhythm chops are on full display... wow!. Warren is fantastic (such a soulful and intelligent musician), but Bobby is putting on a clinic for rhythm players here. So grateful these guys are still putting out great music. Tip of the hat to Jeff Chimenti on piano... and those background singers are killing it.
Was so into the music that I was perplex when Bob started to sing Jerry's lyrics again. Absolutely beautiful and Bob is as great as he's ever been here.
I haven't read all the comments, but did anyone else notice that during "Bird Song", after the jam, they came back and sang "All I know is something like a bird with in HIM sang/HE sang a little while and then flew off" It was very clear. A class nod to Jerry! Bobby is way more classy than many give him credit!
I know!! I was knocked sideways for a second, thought it was a background singer! I'm not a musicologist of Weir's every show, still I've been listening to the Dead and his musical journey since 1983 and I've never heard Bobby do that before or since.May he continue to sing his song.
TRI is amazing, you can change the acoustics in the studio to sound like literally any music hall/concert venue, cathedral, etc. that you want to...It's amazing.
Yeah dude.. They mic everything so the can play and sing softly compared to other venues. It's also why they usually post poor quality videos of the TRI sets. They can get better quality out of youtube if they leave the vid quality low. TRI sets are amazing
Love both of them. Great song together. I've had the pleasure of seeing Govn Mule twice, Ratdog twice, and both of them playing with the Grateful Dead reunion tour in St. Louus, Mo. at River port.
+grandbbq I was on his bus once and didn't see/smell any sign of marijuana. Leave your "real" comments to yourself please. Do you think Warren would like this comment? Just think. I'm not trying to ruin anything with you but Warren is the coolest, soberest, and hardest working man in the music biz.
tyler toner Hey listen my man. I think if your at a concert getting drunk and molesting women and only getting a warning from security... That's wrong. But someone who takes one hit of a doobie and gets thrown out of the concert... That's wrong also. Yeah marijuana is wrong. I'm not promoting marijuana in anyway, shape, or form but I guess it is better then a drunken idiot.
So good. Had to come back for more in August of 19! I was backstage with Warren during a jazz fest run a few years back and he couldn't have been any cooler to chill with. Love seeing WOLF being played with gifted hands to tickle my spine.
From all the dead shows I have seen to all the other great shows I have seen (last waltz, allman bros at winterland, stones 72 tour, Monterrey, pink floyd @ Pompeii......) this is the most special and one of the best. The intimacy the small venue provides is first class. Warren Haynes who is obviously an awesome guitar player and what a voice. And I know this is a celebration of jerry and a lot of ppl will disagree but to me bob was the dead. Bob is the man. Such a great rhythm player and a good voice. This is great. Thanks for the post.
Don t you cry ; dry your eyes on the wind ! :) :) God i love the deads music more every minute of my life. you get caught up in the beautiful melodies and forget to listen to the words Forever Grateful
I agree. When Phil Lesh and Friends do Bird Song, they often say "all I know is something like a bird within him sang" instead of "within her sang". You may know this already, but the song was originally written about Janis Joplin, but I think the meaning can apply to any beautiful singer who has passed on.
Seriously, some great music here. Warren seems to be getting better. He's not trapped by any patterns of playing. His soloing is all about the song, not the other way around.
everyone in this set played so well you can really feel this, everyone on point and feelin the jam very very nice, everyones input is tasty and smooth thanks so much for the post
Watching Bob opened up the guitar neck for me. He is a superb arranger with his instrument. I'd like his to do some instructional vids, with acoustic guitar, on how to play Grateful Dead songs, the right way. He built the perfect large living room environment to play music in. Thanks, Don.
Mule and Warren were my inroads to all of this phenomenal music. The dead, panic, the allmans, string cheese, Billy….dozens of others. It it hadn’t been for hearing one of the govt mule tunes come across some Spotify playlist 15 years ago while I was working, and running to the phone to see who it was, I would still be stuck on Tool and Primus (who are great). But I’d never have given the dead a listen as an adult and I sure wouldn’t have taken my 7 year old son to see Billy strings in Minneapolis playing some progressive bluegrass jazz metal master music out of what I considered my fatherly duty to expose him to the Jimmy Hendrix of our generation.
Love when Bobby plays with his range on The Weight, very nice. bobby is always stretching himself to be better. I wish TRI would sell these sessions, I would definitely buy them...
Thanks 👏so much for the comments and support you’ve showed me towards my Music 🎵 , I'm so grateful and happy to check on you! You can leave me a text on my mail; and let me know more about you ❤️🇺🇸🎶
Rolling Stone also left Bob Weir off its list of 50 rhythm guitarists and like the other man said they left Sinatra off the list of the top 100 singers.So much for the culturally deprived but we know better and what a wonderful little show this is.
Life may be sweeter, for this i know. they sound so nice, love the vocals with the background ladies (could see them singing up front?) guitars never sounded so in synch as this!
7/31/13 "bob" and "warren" played very good! l like the road 2 the couch! classical! "sugar-ree classic! the "jerry picture's beautiful! another couch talk! l liked it very much! thank-u!
Nebraska Brian here Bobby..Love You & figured it out...I'm officially "Scaring the Children," yup my Facebook photo got that scary mojo!!!! What a long strange trip it is!
As an armature musician I found the best part was the music, but more so the talk section where you discus the details and intricacies of how you arrange the music. Thank you for the information from master musicians such as yourselves.
Thanks for liking my aspiration and never giving up on my aspirations .I’m so pleased with the love and support you’ve showered on me that makes me feel really good.. if you’re okay with me adding you as my special fan?
Armature , oh the shame, without my now needed varifocal glasses on nose, auto spell check is a minefield. (armature, minefield did you see what I did there). Should have been amateur
first time gov't mule went to italy 2004 april I went to the concert hall 1 month earlier.. i bought the ticket 2 months before ...so excited that i didn't watch the date properly..i think i'm a true fan
I know the song, now. Been watching all of this. It's easy for me, the listener, to get "lost" into. MAN! It's got to be tough to play. Love the 'Dead" Bob Wier has the sound. I hope Rich had it........
Was happily grooving to this video when I was violently stirred by a dub step youtube commercial about 30 minutes in.. God damnit, youtube Im trying to watch GOOD music here!!
Couldn't agree more.AND...they're making it nearly impossible to download vids anuymore also ! Vids that people WANT downloaded !! $$$$ hungry pigs !!!!!!!!!!
