Grateful Dead tribute act Joe Russo’s Almost Dead made their debut at Brooklyn Bowl in NYC on January 26, 2013. Russo put the band together on a lark to perform at the 2013 installment of Freaks Ball, an event put together by members of the influential e-mail list the NYC-Freaks. JRAD’s debut blew many minds that night and thankfully the band has played a number of shows since. The quintet will return to the place it all started for the event that started it all this January.

Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, which features Joe Russo on drums, Scott Metzger and Tom Hamilton on guitar and vocals, Dave Dreiwitz on bass and Marco Benevento on keys, will perform at both nights of Freaks Ball XV on January 23 and 24.

Tickets go up for grabs this Friday, October 17 at noon ET via the venue’s website and we wouldn’t be surprised if they sell out quickly.
