On Wednesday, November 13, Bob Weir and The Wolf Bros, complete with the horn section known as The Wolf Pack, brought their stripped-down renditions of the Grateful Dead catalog to the historic Cincinnati Music Hall. This show, however, was unlike any prior Wolf Bros concerts in previous tours. The band was joined by the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra, led by conductor John Morris Russell, in an elegant evening of classical renditions of Weir’s familiar tunes.
In the shadowed recesses of a desert oasis, where the neon lights of Las Vegas flicker like distant stars, Dead and Company brought their grand odyssey to a close on the evening of August 10th, 2024. It was a night that whispered of echoes, of journeys past and present, and of a legacy that refuses to be silenced.
Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros featuring The Wolfpack continue their groundbreaking and much beloved symphony collaborations. The band returns to the road this November, performing with the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra on November 13 at Cincinnati Music Hall, the Chicago Philharmonic on November 17 and 18 at the Auditorium Theatre and the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra on November 22 and 23 at the Saenger Theatre.
I didn’t plan on going to the Sphere to see Dead and Company (a.k.a. “Dead & Co.”) during their months-long “Dead Forever” residency. But after missing U2 and Phish during the inaugural year of the high-tech Las Vegas arena, it was high time I went to check out the uber-visual experience. It doesn’t hurt that Dead & Co.
Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros—led by Weir alongside Don Was, Jay Lane and Jeff Chimenti—featuring The Wolfpack will perform with the Stanford Symphony Orchestra at Frost Amphitheatre in Stanford, CA on October 29.
Under a sky lit by a "Buck" Supermoon and the shimmer of dancing drones, Dead and Company wrapped up their final tour performance at Folsom Field in Boulder. A beloved stop on their summer tours since 2016, Boulder, a Deadhead haven for almost six decades, witnessed an unforgettable show.
A day and a night, full of unforgettable moments and classic tunes, came to life at the hallowed ground of Folsom Field. On July 1st, 2023, Dead and Company unfurled their cosmic tapestry for the first of three nights in a location steeped in a deep and abiding love for the Grateful Dead. This trio of shows not only marks the band's last performances at the venue but is also the final whistle-stop on their grand farewell tour.
Dead & Company's Final Tour rolled on to Queens, NY for a two-night stand at Citi Field, home of the NY Mets. Night one in the Big Apple kicked off on June 21, 2023, at this MLB stadium, with a capacity of around 41,000 fans. The band brought two vibrant sets that included a sit-in by drummer Joe Russo, from Joe Russo's Almost Dead.
The stars must have been perfectly aligned over Saratoga Springs Performing Arts Center (SPAC) on the evening of June 18, 2023. Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Grateful Dead's maiden show at the very same venue, Dead & Company staged a performance that was not only a tribute to the music and legacy of the Grateful Dead but a testament to the enduring resonance of the band's music and culture.
On Tuesday, June 13, Dead and Company made their fifth and final stop in Cincinnati for one final night with the Queen City Deadheads. In an effort to leave a memorable impression on the sold-out crowd at Riverbend Music Center, the band delivered an unbelievable performance that is sure to echo in the memories of the audience for years to come.
