On Saturday night Dead & Company featuring Grateful Dead members Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann and Bob Weir aided by John Mayer, Oteil Burbridge and Jeff Chimenti concluded Summer Tour 2016 with a Bay Area performance at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. Oteil has just shared footage from Saturday’s concert which gives us an interesting vantage point on the six-piece.
The videos below were shot from the side of the stage and allow viewers to eavesdrop on the communication between band members. Oteil has published seven different clips for our viewing enjoyment. There’s high-energy moments like “U.S. Blues,” improv-heavy moments such as “Cassidy” and a 15-minute “Dark Star” as well as more poignant moments like the “Brokedown Palace” that brought the tour to a close.
