Dead & Co Announce Farewell Tour Dates
Earlier this year Dead & Co. shot down reports that 2022 would be their last year touring. As it turns out, 2023 will be their last year touring. The band — comprising Grateful Dead founding members Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann, and Bob Weir, plus John Mayer, Oteil Burbridge, Jeff Chimenti — just announced the dates for a farewell jaunt that will have them crisscrossing the United States next spring and summer.
Is this really the end of the long, strange trip? Dead & Co. famously launched just months after the Grateful Dead’s Fare Thee Well gigs in 2015, so I wouldn’t be surprised to learn some other permutation of the Dead braintrust will be carrying on after this. But those core band members are getting up there in years, so maybe it’s really over this time.
