The shakedown was epic

Thanks for playing it with not only extended jam per my request, but within Shakedown street sandwich. The music this weekend was a reminder of why you should never miss the jubilee

I was mesmerized by the Shakedown—>Low Spark—>Shakedown right in front of Barraco on the rail. The non verbal communication between him and Warren was palatable as the notes, chords, and changes displayed their bonds as both looked at each other throughout. The rest of the band were the more than adequate backup players of this ridiculously good version and the musical highlight of the weekend for me. Another fantastic 3 days at the Jubilee. 100,000 steps in 3 days according to the smart watch.

been laying low for bit and spending time getting old lol ,,, and and suffering limits also such as work and no time for nothing but work for some reason , that needs to change ... the DSO schedule is not lining up for me either right now , just missing the Atlantic City show by a little , I'm driving cross country from cali to nj in sept and back , hoping something pops up along the way.

Last night Skip Vangelas Rob Baracco John Kadlecik Rob Eaton Jay Lane and Jake Wolf played a private concert for us in celebration of Whitney and my marriage. Whitney and I got married April 25 2025. Last night was something real special on so many levels for me. I must start by thanking Mitch Stein and Jake Wolf for helping me put this together. The production was top of the line. I must also give many thanks to Prescott who really helped me get the ball rolling on this. Putting me in touch with Jake and directing me Mitch Cafe Istanbul. Without Mitch Jake and Pres this would not have been possible. I also must thank the band for putting on such an incredible show for us. What an experience. Their performance was top of the line Grateful Dead music. Sadly I can’t remember the whole set list and I’m gonna make this post before I can get it from someone but I have a loose recollection. Help Slip Franklins Jack Straw They Love Each Other Lazy Lightning Supplication Broken Arrow Terrapin Playing Shakedown Samson Standing on the Moon Corrina Two Souls Eyes Drums WRS Lovelight World to Give I think I’m missing something’s especially in the 2nd set but I think I’ve got most of it there.

Hey all, This is Mik, of The Garcia Project. I've been lurking around the forums and thought I would drop in and say hello. Way back in 2002 (I think?) I was at The Gathering of the vibes and it was the first time I saw Melvin play with John K - as DSO was headlining....They did a Jerry Band set that brought me right back to the old days of Jerry Band tour. I was backstage and met Melvin that night but I also walked John from the stage to his trailer with his guitars. We chatted for a while and I told him that I thought he and Melvin sounded great and would love to hear more of it. He said he loved it too but was very busy with DSO...Then I quipped that I might have to start a "Jerry Band" to keep it going....He said Go for it! He was so kind and nice to talk to. And now he's back playing with Melvin! Love it! Since then, I met up with Kat Walkerson, who subbed in for Cheryl and sang with Shirley for a few shows with Melvin and JGB (Stu Allen was lead at that time). I had just started The Garcia Project (2010) and Kat joined the band for our second show and onward! We both loved how DSO did the GD sets lists and we started doing actual Jerry Band set lists with the same style, arrangement and feel of the original. We built the original gear and were gifted guitars from Andy Logan (Grateful Guitars Foundation) and since then we have played many shows with Melvin Seals, Jacklyn LaBranch, Maria Muldaur and Buzz Buchannon, covering sets from 1976 through 1995! Now in 2025, we have assembled the absolute best band and crew and are out touring again through the USA. We all absolutely love and miss Jerry and the experience that was a Jerry Garcia Band show. We strive to recreate that feeling at every show. We even have a couple of shows on our March tour with the one and only Jackie LaBranch! We love singing with her and her voice brings us right back..... I saw my first GD show back in 1987 at Silver Stadium in Rochester, NY - Right after the show my friend asked me what I thought...I said it was amazing, but what if Jerry sang every song??!! He said to me, Go see Jerry Band.....I sad WHAAAAAT??? There is a Jerry Band? And the following year I saw my first Jerry Band shows at Great Woods. Hooked ever since. Ive always missed that rich beautiful tone of his guitar playing and his soulful voice and presence, Anyway, we've done a lot over that last 15 years (including recording an album of Jerry Garcia spiritual songs called SPIRIT with Maria Muldaur, Jackie LaBranch, Peter Rowan, Jason Crosby and more....) --- and its our mission in life to continue on the musical legacy, keeping true to the original arrangements, feel and style that Jerry laid down from 1976-1995. I hope y'all will give us a shot if we play your neck of the woods and Im happy to answer any questions or tell any fun stories. We absolutely LOVE DSO and sometimes get to see them when our tours cross or we are on the same bill....Cotter has even run sound for a few times. Love the band, the community and the music! We would love to join y'all at the Jubilee or Jamaica some day.....Peace, love and music.... Mik
