Last Friday, October 25, 2024, was a difficult day for Grateful Dead fans, as jam rock bassist and patriarch Phil Lesh peacefully left this earth. The news began circulating around 5 p.m. EST, giving many bands, including Dogs in a Pile, enough time to prepare a tribute. The band was gearing up for a two-night run at the ever-welcoming Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia in Philadelphia, PA, and seized the opportunity to honor Lesh's legacy.
