Grateful Dead's 60th: The San Francisco Homecoming & The Dawn of a New Era
We returned to where it all began, under the San Francisco sky in Golden Gate Park, for what we believed was a homecoming—a celebration of 60 years of Grateful Dead music.
But as Dead & Company lit up the stage, something more than nostalgia was in the air. Was this just a concert, or a carefully orchestrated glimpse into the future? We’ll take you inside those three magical nights, sharing exclusive insights from Oteil Burbridge and San Francisco’s Mayor Daniel Lurie, and piecing together the clues whispered among the Deadheads on the ground.
When Billy Strings, Sturgill Simpson, and Trey Anastasio opened, was it just a show, or an audition? We explore the theory that this weekend wasn't an ending for Bob Weir and the band, but the beginning of a new chapter, a passing of the torch.
To understand what really happened that weekend, and what it means for the next 60 years, you have to hear this story.
