In a theater not so far away, where the walls hum with the echoes of a thousand nights, a gathering of cosmic proportions unfolded beneath the watchful gaze of the ever-spinning disco ball. The Capitol Theatre, a vessel adrift in the sea of time, Port Chester, its current harbor, bore witness to the convergence of spirits old and new, as the Philharmonic Orchestra of the Grateful, under the baton of one Phil Lesh, celebrated the maestro's 84th passage around the sun.

In the swirling mists of the jam rock universe, there's a beacon shining bright, pulsating with the deep, resonant vibes of Phil Lesh’s bass. As we orbit around the sun to mark his 84th trip this March 15th, 2024, we embark on a magic bus ride, not just through the spaces between notes, but through the heartbeats of a legacy that's more alive than ever, without ever saying it's a Kesey trip—but feeling it in every word.

Today, as we mark March 9th, 2024, Grateful Web tunes into the cosmic vibrations to honor the birthday of Ornette Coleman, the revolutionary saxophonist who reshaped the horizon of jazz with the audacity of a true pioneer.

On November 10th, 1999, I attended my first ever Phil Lesh & Friends show at the New Haven Coliseum. The venue, affectionately known as 'the old barn,' was just off I-95 in lovely downtown New Haven, Connecticut. It also hosted my second Grateful Dead concert back in May 1978. The New Haven Coliseum did not age well and it was gone shortly after that show in 1999. A young lad, the 20-year-old Derek Trucks, was called in as an emergency fill-in guitarist, hired on the fly.

The Grateful Dead performed at more benefits than they can count, to the point where they (amazingly!) got organized and created the Rex Foundation 40 years ago in 1984. Each year thereafter they would play shows for Rex, rendering unto the common good – small nonprofits that benefited society in the realms of the environment, arts, Native American issues, and education. This year they will celebrate grants that now total over ten million dollars given to over 1,400 grantees, a proud benchmark.
