Taken this past saturday night at the legendary Sweetwater in Mill Valley, California. The guy in the green polo shirt playing guitar is my friend Eric, aka e-money, aka jefferson, aka the better half of brody. The old guy on the right playing guitar is Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead.
Jelly is the name of Eric's band by the way.

Even as a non-Dead fan I'm impressed. What was the setlist? Are you going to post a boot?

i wasn't there. eric says they got recordings from a soundboard feed, so if he sends me something, i'll post them.
apparently, it was a mix of acoustic dead tunes and originals. i wouldn't be surprised if bob knows about songfight now.

eric has been playing in this band (jelly) for the past year or so now. the other guitar player (john) is a longtime friend of bob weir. in fact, he lives in garcia's old house in nicasio. the show was a private party, which i think is the biggest reason bob decided to play with the band.

That is indeed awesome. Very cool to jam with gods. He the man. I have a small story, nothing like jamming or anything. I met him at one of his trip parties at the exploratorium. "Fun cookies", I recall thinking. It was more a visual thing after that

i just got off the phone with e money. apparently, bob had so much fun playing with eric and his band (jelly),
he's asked them to back him up in about 2 weeks. 300 people are paying $175 a pop to hear them play at the mill valley community center.
maybe grateful jelly isn't that much of a stretch
