OK. I'm 60 have seen alot. GD well over 200 . Always thought this is for the Kids not my gig. WTF I AM TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY. These guys are the shit. Kick Ass Rock and Roll. I for one am very impressed. 😎
Arent' they great? While they skew younger-ish, they play the music with a ton of historical knowledge, reverence, and CONFIDENCE! Oh, and originality. I take this band over really any other Dead tribute/cover/whatever band I've ever seen :)
My favorite aspect about these guys is at any given time during their jams they always incorporate different parts of songs from other bands like maybe steely Dan or genisis just enough to be recognized
@@brianlavoie1603 what label you put on them is fine. they are a talented group of musicians the put a spin on the dead music that is in my opinion fantastic!
Absolutely love this band. Great musicians. Wonderful playing. The guitar players has channeled Jerry Garcia wonderfully, but, God, I miss the Grateful Dead. It been a long, strange trip since I first saw the Dead as The Warlocks at Magoos in the 1960s. 72 and still dancing.
Keeping it going and taking it the extra mile for the 21st Century, what can you say, warms an old Deadhead's heart to hear them, hope to see JRAD in DC again soon!
I almost got whacked in the face by Dave’s bass back at show on long island of 30 people with metzger and Russo too. I was standing within 2 feet while these guys tore it up.

364 Shows here. These guys have some spirit, spunk and a whole lotta funk. Bass player is off the chain. Silvio>Betha=flat out filthy!
I'm 65 and thought the same thang✌🤠
God I hope this band stays together for 30 more fucking years!! Keeping the Dead Alive!!!!
Fantastic rendition of Bertha. More than Dead worthy. Tempo, soloing, vocals all outstanding. Puts their own stamp on it.

Happy 80th birthday Bob Dylan!!
The way Tommy charges that transition into bertha is why I get up in the morning!!!!!!!
And a day shall come when my son takes his son... "someone else's Almost JRAD"😉
Just like we already know.... This music NEVER STOPS!
That’s so beautiful! REAL LIVE MUSIC!! (looks so fun, they sound SO good!:)
Cracking Sylvio into a storming Bertha.
can not wait to see these guys play at the peach again! they are top notch!
TOP NOTCH COVER BAND.

That moment when you say "I've discovered this great new band!" and then you find out they've been touring for 10 years.
Are you serious?
Bummer
Your comment is perfect.

So, you were 12?
@@jayflaherty5260 Right cause I'm 59 and born in 64 and they played maggots in 65 so I'm calling B's on that
@@jonathanlund590 I was a 15 year old runaway in 1965. Made it to the Haight in time for the alleged "Summer of Love." think what you like.
Every time I listen to jrad I smile to myself thinking that jerry would have loved tosit in with these guys. Just spectacular
Oh my. Talk about finding the groove early with Silvio.
Ratdog style

Wow I love this one the keys are off the hook !!! Keep it up !!! See you soon !!! Happy trails !!
This band is so fucking sick.
Yep 🙌
Won’t buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Live Music, Looking forward to a great summer/fall tour schedule!!
Sooooooo good
that was only a SNEAK PEAK!!???!!! best sneak peak off all time, of any kind, BY FAR
These are both very well done covers. I've seen Bob perform Silvio many times; what a rocking song.
Super sick Silvio to start off the show, excellent jam prior to Scott singing. They are bringing it in terrible weather and not many fans. JRAD rules
wow, gigs at tennis stadiums are pretty groovy. Great seats and a dance floor.
For sure. Looks like a cool place to see a show.
Grateful Dead in Indianapolis summer 1984, tennis court.
Excellent!
love it! can't wait for The Frost!
Scott sounds great
Happy to see TH has brought back the scares
Fu*k yeah 🤘🏼
Hipster Jerry is killing it
Their version of Help on the Way was my most listened to song of 2020 lol
I love that song!! Can you send me a link?

Yowza yowza yowza
Patiently waiting for hulaween
ALSO HOW THE FUCK DID THEY BOOK LIKE 8 SHOWS ON YALE CAMPUS? JRAD stepping up into the IVY LEAUGE... LOVE IT
Dddddddaaaaaaaammmmmm
Sylvio is that a Dylan tune?, or Robert Hunter 🍄🌵 Tucson Arizona Sonoran desert 🏜️
So Cali.
....I thought the thumbnail was Will Ferrell with a beard n hat!!! 🤣
Was it limited capacity due to covid? Or just crappy weather?
covid, only 1500 allowed in, both nights have been sweeeeeeeeeet
LOL...remember all those super crowded gen-admin Dead show where you wish you had that much room?
Isn't this the Purple Turtles ?
Come down south. Play in packed stadiums

Dead and Co. Caint touch this. Jerry sez spend your grilled cheese wisely.
