Dark Star Orchestra—Recreating the Grateful Dead Experience
Fri, May 30, 2008 at 8pm
Tickets: $20-40 (no discounts)
Giving homage in a continually evolving artistic outlet, the Dark Star Orchestra (DSO) recreates historic Grateful Dead concerts with compelling accuracy. The group has their craft so well-refined that even members of the Dead themselves, rhythm guitarist/singer Bob Weir, drummer Bill Kreutzmann, and keyboardist Vince Welnick, have appeared on stage and performed with these live music interpreters. DSO concerts have been hailed as “the next best thing to being there,” due in part to the band’s impeccable musicianship and attention to detail. Whether you’re a Deadhead who has seen countless Grateful Dead concerts or you never had an opportunity to see the original Dead lineup live, DSO can and will fulfill your need to see a Grateful Dead show.
