I LOVE this modern day ‘bootleg with visuals’. So psyched for these guys, such a great start to what I know is gonna be a fabulous run~Thx for sharing!
And don’t forget the 170,000-speaker HOLOPLOT multi-layered audio system. Oh yeah, there’s space for people, too. Seating for 17,500 includes 23 private suites - all inside a domed monitor to provide an immersive experience. So if you were entranced by the 580,000-square-foot “exosphere” - each LED is the size of a hockey puck - get ready for a high-res experience like nothing you’ve ever seen on the inside. As U2 guitarist The Edge reminds, this place was built for entertainment, not sports.
Thanks, this put a big smile on my face. Great visuals, huh, use to be back in the day, we ingested substances, then illegal, now are therapeutic, to get visuals like that at the shows. DeadHeads have always been both ahead and behind the times, at all times and all most never always now and forever.....PeaceOrElse
Thank you for posting this vid. From everything I’ve seen and heard, looks like a great opening night at the Sphere. Maybe a few mic adjustments and major tapers focus on all band members.
When they got to the jam part of Saint Stephen, I realized these guys definitely are still riding that wave of musical chemistry clicking that they had going on last summer. I mean they are just a monstrous band and they deal with this music in such an expert way. Super tight, yet constantly spontaneous, and totally hooked up. I miss the sound of Phil's Bass, but Bob's guitar playing has always been one of the most important parts of Grateful Dead music and he is basically dueling leads. as foJerry, well, he's been gone so long, the Grateful Dead actually existed for just about as long without him as they did with him .... so the days of it being hard to go see the remaining members play and that huge void being there, they have faded. I know that Jerry would think what John was doing was pretty cool. There are so many people that miss out on it because they're throwing off by some surface level thing like John Mayer being there or the tempos of the songs not being with their used to, but if you can get your head out of your ass you will realize that this is some the very best Grateful Dead music that will have ever been played....
Don't be sad that the good old days are gone... Be glad that you got to live in them..

Many thanks for a killer video!!
Love this band and the venue. They are a " dose" of joy every summer, the music never stops, we need it!
Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile!
Wildfire sadness brings wildflower gladness.
Ah the Silver guitar makes an appearance again, the McCarty 594. Probably my favorite Mayer dead and co tone.
“One man gathers what another man spills! “. Thank you for spilling.!!!!!!!

It's Vegas....fights are already scheduled for later in the summer.
WOW FACTOR!!
Thanks for the capture!!

Awesome! 🎸
sweet. i imagine that taping wasn't allowed for the show b/c the steep stairs, etc. sound is great tho even with just a cell phone mic

Fantastically put!
smiles from mt hood
doses doses
Nice! Which seat section this view is from?
for those that were there , how was the sound quality ?
I wasn't there but it seems to be very cavernous and not loud. Not a good combo IMO, especially with GD music played so lifelessly.
Greatest sound quality I’ve ever experienced in 60+ years! ❤
18,000 speakers

Overall, what did you think of the visuals throughout the whole show? Appreciate you posting!
mostly boring .. had no relation to the song and just repetitive ...
🌹
Weird seeing Mayer playing a McCarty
What section of seats was this taken in? Thinking about making the trip this summer...
110 / R26 / seat 2- limited view due to overhang
Id have to be tripping there...probably would be escorted out lol...
Def missing Jerry...he WAS the genius of the dead
Dead and Slow
Leave it to those caught up in time
The whiners could probably do it much better at age 78
people pay all that money to talk as loud as possible during St Stephen? WTF? Just terrible.
rock concert anarchy .... shameful ....
It really is as slow as they say
Of course it’s a slower tempo because it is a different band
Dude it's like this every song, they suck!
Speed kills...😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
@@gr8fulnbama59wow..that’s crazy, you old boomer!
Guess the drugs are good enough people dont notice too much. @gr8fulnbama59
🥱
Nope. Def not my bag but happy for those that enjoy this
I don't see how you could love Grateful Dead and not love this music they're playing.
@@matthewmaurysmith2486 because this band ISNT the Grateful Dead man. No Garcia, no Lesh, no Kreutzman. It’s simple.
The impotent St. Stephen
The jam with anything but impotent! And at least they played it a little faster than Jerry seemed to want to during the late seventies ;-)
Not a fan of The Sphere thing
