On May 25, Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado will host a screening of the Grateful Dead documentary Long Strange Trip. The screening comes in advance of the Amir Bar-Lev-directed film coming to Amazon Prime Video on June 2.

Mangan IV, Alicia Sams, Andy Heller, Sandy Heller and surviving Grateful Dead members Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann, Phil Lesh and Bob Weir.
