Dead & Company at the Sphere.

I just flew to Las Vegas to see Dead & Company at the Sphere this past Thursday night. WOW! I’ve seen a lot of Dead shows since I jumped on the bus in 1976, but the Sphere was a really incredible experience, and the visuals were stunning. It’s been three days, and my neck still is sore from looking up all evening. John Mayer is really good with the band. Even Drums and Space (which is usually time for a bathroom break) was incredible. Otiel Burbridge, the bassist (from the Allman Bros.) filling in for Phil, joined in on percussion with Mickey and Jay Lane (from Bobby’s band) and three percussionists made it interesting. This is worth catching if you have a chance. I need to go back again. I can’t stand Vegas, so I did an overnight trip. It was well worth it.
