Grateful Dead - Brokedown Palace - Fare Thee Well Live w/ Bill Walton at Levi's Stadium 6/28/2015
Музыка
This was the Grateful Dead's last song of the night from their last show in their hometown of San Francisco. It was filmed at Levi's Stadium from the pit in front of the band. And yes, the extremely tall guy with his arms up in the air is Bill Walton (FF to about 4:05 and 5:30 if you want to see him). He's still blocking shots to this day!

It was the perfect choice to end it at home. "Mama Mama many worlds I've come since I first left home"
I'm crying so hard right now. I remember when I was there. I realize how Beautiful this band was..I cry every time I hear there songs now because I know I'll never get to see them preform in person again

whole place was in tears, grate show
I was there for this performance, and this was a beautiful rendition of this song. As i grew up listening to American Beauty, I never thought I would see them play this live. This was an emotional moment, and I must admit I have cried watching these Fare Thee Wells several times since. So this is it, no more.
Listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock my soul. Rest easy Bill Walton ❤💜
Trey nailed that solo--gets me every time.
I was there, what a great show, thank you for posting this!
Trey reallllllly step up and did great. At times I heard that ole' guitar cry. It's been almost 20 years to the day since I heard that sound.
Bill Walton sat in front of my wife and I at a show in Foxborough when they toured with Dylan and my wife loudly complained about the "tall guy in front of us". Bill kindly switched seats with us! Nicest guy!

John Beesley I sat behind him in Worcester, MA in the late 80's. I thought I was imagining things in my slightly altered state until my brother confirmed...yes, thats him. He comes to many shows!

How could ANYONE not love the great Bill Walton??? Granted, it would kinda suck to be in yalls shoes John, but you know walton wants everyone to have a good time......but there really isnt much the man can do, ya know???? Its not his fault he is 9'4" and loves these guys.....good thing is that he can see from ANY spot in ANY venue with not the first problem.....what a guy....awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Astonishing! Bob's voice is majestic. Some of the best harmonies EVER from the Dead.
Just beautiful. Thanks for posting this.
Brought to tears.
Great footage! I was about 20 feet behind you and Big Red!
instant chills in the first three notes....thx
Goosebumps....... Thank-you for this..... Sad and happy at the same time...... Peace and Love to everyone on this planet.......
There were five things from this encore. First was Bobby's introduction, "ten seconds of silence for those that aren't here". Second, this one of only two times that night where I felt that Trey was actually trying to channel Jerry, and he NAILED IT ! Third, as the band came down for their bow, you can see that Micky seemed to be telling Trey the same thing. Tour was that my little sister (she miracle me into the show) called the encore halfway through Sugar Mag. And finally, I had tears flowing from the third note on ! Brokedown has always hit me in the heart, but that night it just grabbed hold and wouldn't let loose. THANK YOU to the band and to ALL of the family that was there to make it such a special night !!!
I was there....this was the final song...made us cry. We love you! We took that positive energy home, and will do something great with it. We will help you help the world!
For some reason, seeing Bill Walton("He's still blocking shots to this day", literally LOL). in any uv thee Fare Thee Well videos always puts a smile on my face. He's always got a Cheshire cat smile going on. Why shouldn't I??? WHat happened to the do do do do do do do do do do... part's though?!?!?!??!?? What in Thee FUCK????????? That's my favorite part uv thee song.
Every show is going to be different! Wish I could be at all of them!
Thank you soooooo MUCH for sharing this Travis!! Even with doing the Jan. 20th mail-order & being on two computers when the tickets were first sold, I never got my hands on a ticket. I toured from '90-'93 & then would hit up shows whenever possible. This song is one of my all-time top 5 that The Grateful Dead performed. Again, many thanks!! I'm sure you enjoyed the show! Peace, Love & Happiness...or Hippiness. (~);) ~Kate~
Heavenly
thank you so much for the memories.....1000 kisses dead nation
Love and Peace and Peace and Love. That's all about. Thak you so much
RIP legend.
That is fucking killer.
i cry watching it from my living room
Bill Walton guarding Dr. J at 4:10 lol.

Beautiful, hope we get a repeat in Chicago!!

***** you could not have said it better. That little "miscue" at the end of Hell In a Bucket was the greatest thing I've ever seen, first Phil tries to go over to get his attention, even Bobby too then they were like "fuck it he's rolling" and they just ripped it a few more bars before going back to the verse. A fine moment and the one that stuck out for me the most.

***** My wife and I have been debating the final song of July 5th....she still thinks Brokedown (especially with the "Fare Thee Well" tie-in, it does make sense)....I think Box (can't see them avoiding the connection to the '95 show). I'm actually predicting a double-encore of Brokedown>Box of Rain to close things out on the 5th....we'll see :) If they pull that double encore and haven't played Box of Rain yet...imagine how loud Soldier Field will be in anticipation, with everybody knowing what's coming next? I get chills just thinking about it.

jdig59 Guess my prediction is out the window right off the bat....hell of a first set to kick off the Chicago shows, for sure!
They ceased to be the Grateful Dead when Jerry died. This is Dead and Co, a very different thing.

Saw the name for this and thought they had bill Walton up on stage lmao
IWT 2015 Levi Stadium. Have a question for heads ? They actual called them selves Grateful Dead ?
"Be Kind "
Weir's vocal phrasing drives me nuts on Jerry's tunes.

Doug Lynch It's actually part of why I love Bob singing Jerry's tunes ~ he actually inhabits them in a purely Bob way. With the emotion only someone who played it alongside Jerry all those years can bring.
Trey is a good guitarist. He fits in good with The Dead.
Sounds good, alive! All the the stream transfers on YT that I've found sound like shit. I'm going to post something, admittedly not good video (side of stage) but like this it captures the real sound vibe..

btragal Ya, it turned out alright. I recorded it with my Galaxy S6 in case that helps anyone. Also, the video was pretty shakey (I have a broken shoulder and it was hard to hold up), so I auto-corrected the shakiness which I think caused some of the video issues you see here, but it's better than it was before I corrected for it.
Sorry to nitpick, but Santa Clara is most decidedly NOT San Francisco. Close but no cigar.

Yeah it just would have been kind of cool to have it all "legit" and all so everyone could be as loud as they want about it. And for the atmosphere, but then again it's sort of tradition to freely smoke pot illegally at Dead concerts. Having it legal might have ruined the vibe.

Ben E Chicago was chosen for very specific reasons. It along with Alpine Valley have always been where West and East coast heads have met--where the national family came together. It was also the last show for Jerry, of course. Notice they started with the same song they left off with in "95: "Box of Rain", also very significant because of the very difficult losses among band members which were the seed for its creation and message of support and healing, but also because using it for an opener symbolically seals the never-ending wheel that is their musical journey, itself a symbol of love and life--it just keeps turning and turning. :)
Personally I think Grateful Dead should have ended with Jerry's death. Most everything after his passing is pure nonsense...
Why are we supposed to care about Bill Walton's presence at this show? He's already ruined way too many basketball games with his overly-biased commentating. Now he gets to ruin a beautiful musical experience as well...?
