No one on earth could have done Jerry proud the way that Mayer does. May the god's bless him.

He's come such a long way since he first joined the Dead. He seems more matured, content and chilled as if he doesn't have to impress anyone anymore. Love it!!!!

Man it pains me to see people shit on John when he’s such a master. He fit in this band like a hand in a custom tailored glove. This performance is practically flawless. His tenure in this band will be a bigger and more important part of his legacy in the future than I think most people realize. The fact that he kicked so much ass while in Dead & Co., which is probably the best post-Garcia Dead iteration is a serious thing.

I have to be honest, I have been mostly ambivalent to this ensemble the past few years, but I do think they have their spots where they are really hitting. I am particularly fond of their takes on New Speedway and Deal. And of course in true "Dead" fashion they find their moments within each show / song to really shine. As an example I do like the solo and instrumental bridge in the middle here.

Been a Dead Head since 1970. Saw my first show in '71. Stayed with them thru it all. But a lot of us down here in Florida think there's something hinky about Dead & Co. cancelling both sold-out shows. We believe their vague "logistics" and "routing" explanation is a cover for punishing Florida for our Covid policies. But if it was not, then there shouldn't be any reason Weir can't calm the waters by giving a fuller explanation of the logistics and routing issues that led to the cancellations. Say it ain't so, Bob.
