Reviews

"Just revisiting again today for the 15th or so time. Best 2nd set I've ever heard. These guys were in top form and so tight. Truly amazing. The 2nd set gripped me so tight that night and will forever be in my soul! Inspired me to enjoy many more couch shows summer of 23 leading me to get off the couch and fly out for 2 nights at SPAC because I couldn't take just sitting home listening. The reason I picked SPAC shows was because my cousin lives in NY and he reluctantly let me tag along to my first Dead show 40 years earlier in 1983 so it was a perfectly magical addition to the Long Strange Trip and I'm soooo grateful. Thank you to all the Dead family. "

"Wow. It's absolutely amazing. One of the best Dead and Co shows out there. I can't say enough about this show. I'll leave it at this. Thank you, boys! "

"Like other reviews have mentioned, the 2nd set was probably the best I’ve heard this band play. Brokedown was getting my eyes going!! Where it all started for me D"
Harry Hood — 6/1/2023 2:54:41 PM
"The 2nd set was the best hour and a half of music this band has ever played!! Legendary!!"
Jared — 5/29/2023 4:56:09 PM
"That 2nd set will hold up as time goes by. It was special and will be one i go back and listen to over and over. Excellent. John Mayer is just flat out amazing. The guy can do Jerry things better than anyone before him. He is starting to make things different in a good way. Wish he was around for longer or took this music we love to new places for us to continue to go out and see music and introduce loved ones to the special thing this band always provides. "

"The second set was one of the greatest musical experiences of my life! I've heard better Althea jams, but as soon as The Other One kicked in, they drew me in and didn't let go after that. I've heard Terrapin several times but they really brought back the magic like the first time I heard GD play it at one of my first shows in 1990. Our seats were in 5th row to side of stage and it felt so intimate like I was one of the privileged few they were playing for. Then suddenly the lights started pouring over the crowd and I almost fell over! Coming out of a really trippy jam and back into the aggressive, driving rhythm of Other One with the 3 of them lining up like Wyatt Earp and his boys in Tombstone was one of the coolest concert experiences I can remember. I missed the epic drums due to bathroom break so can't comment. They've played Stella Blue just about every year in LA but I still loved it. There seemed to be a pre-show buzz about Franklin's Tower (or maybe just my own buzz), but after Stella I figured they'd just play One More Saturday Night and an encore. As soon as they busted out with Help on the Way, my head exploded and I almost threw my back out as I leaped to my feet! Slipknot tends to be a dark and foreboding jam to contrast with the uplifting vibes of Franklin's Tower but this was really upbeat and fun and kept this incredible show "ROLL-ing AWAY" to it's epic conclusion. I didn't realize they could just decide to skip One More Saturday Night, so was surprised they didn't play it as the encore but oh well. "

"Tremendous few nights of music! Best this group has ever sounded. Venue, lights and the company made these amazing shows!"
Eric E — 5/24/2023 8:13:48 PM
"An extraordinary, transcendent night of music and group-mind expansion. The best D&C show I've seen in 8 years and one of the top "Dead" experiences of my life. Oh, and that Slipknot was the best West LA Fadeaway ever!"
RevChris — 5/24/2023 6:35:47 PM
"And Bobby’s guitar sounds so much better than the previous night’s mix. "
This fuckin band has found serious legs — 5/24/2023 7:17:49 AM
"Don’t miss the shows. Let’s hope they come back just like this one more time. A fever dream stretching out across the county like a spritzy mist. Take a double dose. Bring the family. "

"That Birdsong has to be the greatest piece of music D"
Sometimes a great notion — 5/23/2023 3:14:59 PM
"I had floor seats next to the mixing board and I was on 2 tabs of acid at this show. I dropped them at 6:20 pm and started peaking when they began the first set around 7:30 pm To say this show was transcendental is an understatement. When I listened back to this show sober, I knew that it would’ve been transcendental no matter what substance one could be on. The band was in peak form this night! John Mayer’s playing all night was otherworldly. Mickey and Jay were playing to the beat of the universe. The other one suite, Birdsong and Slipknot had some of the most insane face-melting, psychedelic jams ever played. And oh my god that Drums was one of the best ever done. Bringing Steve Perrish out to join was so sweet. At one point Mickey was playing alone and the bass frequency he had rumbling was so intense I could feel it in my soul. It was incredible to experience on acid. All the lights and visuals were first-rate. The sold-out crowd was dancing from the floor to the roof all night. It was a beautiful energy all night. Having listened to their performance from the night before (5/19/23) it is clear that this second night was the better of the two. It was their last time playing LA and they went out giving it their all. Wow. Wow. Wow. I can’t wait to hear the rest of the tour. These guys are on a very special psychedelic musical wave that they’re all tapped into right now. This tour will be legendary."
Scotty S — 5/23/2023 11:59:20 AM
"What a show! Both nights of LA were super hot, the boys are throwing down some of the best stuff since they started…. Sorry Billy but it’s true, boys are on fire"
Toast — 5/23/2023 11:15:25 AM
"Just finished the first set. Awesome jack straw and good lovin ??. Don't ease me in???"
Newbreath — 5/23/2023 10:53:18 AM
"It makes me very sad to know that this is the last tour that we’ll hear John playing and singing some of these songs. Glad we’ve got these recordings to come back to as time moves on. Brokedown Palace is a gem"

"Man, that Birdsong and the whole second set transported me to a whole different dimension where my being was opened up and my soul massaged notes. What a brilliant place and all I want is to go back there. What a Long Strange Trip it’s been and I am thankful for bus ride. "
Daniel — 5/23/2023 9:46:16 AM
"What an amazing night!! Brought the whole family this night and we all had a blast! "
MD — 5/23/2023 9:21:57 AM
"Such a great show. The Terrapin was really fun and loved seeing JM slam the guitar. Both shows were great but I think night two was my favorite. "
Ryan — 5/23/2023 7:19:34 AM
"Jeff Chimenti..... Brown Eyed Women.... That is all I have to say. I'm STILL dancing to those solos!!!"
Grateful Jacket — 5/23/2023 6:56:24 AM
"5 Stars!!! Best DnC show I’ve ever seen. Not sure what the boys are drinking but this is shaping up to be one hell of a final tour. Off to Phoenix to continue the trip…"
Tim Maxwell — 5/23/2023 5:21:43 AM
"I was at both LA shows. They were so much fun. Sound and lighting were amazing. Band had great energy! 2nd set was one of the best I’ve heard from Dead "
Damion — 5/22/2023 10:27:56 PM
"Set 2! Goodness me. One of the finest sequences in 50+ years of these songs. So wonderful that there's this level of inventiveness in 2023!"
Midwest Matt — 5/22/2023 9:16:08 PM
"Just John&Jeff opening a portal to another dimension after the "tumble down shack" verse on BEW. As they do. Amazing stuff"
Zach — 5/22/2023 7:46:43 PM
"Audibly gasped on my couch during that transition from Althea to The Other One. Bird song was transcendent. What a summer this is going to be "
Matthew Mahaffey — 5/22/2023 7:32:31 PM
"A spectacular show. The mix was improved from night one. The Bird Song is special. "
Ryan — 5/22/2023 6:55:58 PM
"Jeff tried to turn the Forum into an amphitheater!!!! Almost BLEW the ROOF OFF on Brown Eyed Women!!! TWICE!!! Oteil on High Time is always great, but this one was special!!!"
Todd winegar — 5/22/2023 6:37:33 PM
"Great show… swear i saw a tear from Bob.. “Bertha” was a great to start.. n to end it with a tear for the “Brokedown Palace”.. the way they came in n out of “The Other One”.."
Hendershot — 5/22/2023 6:22:09 PM
"Was there. Was my first show since 95, and was amazing. These timeless somgs were done justice. Bobby’s still got it in spades and Mayer has found his place for sure. Incredible setlist and energy from the band. Can’t wait to listen to this show again!!"
Smoke show!!! — 5/22/2023 5:40:33 PM
"Damn the boys have been killing it. Just want some more variety and a few new songs! Excited to hear what comes the rest of the tour"
