Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Jay Lane's first full summer tour after joining in 2022, replacing Bill Kreutzmann who sat out due to health concerns.
The Pavilion at Star Lake has hosted Dead-related projects since 1989; this show continued a 34-year relationship with a venue locals still call by its original name, 'Star Lake,' ignoring corporate rebrands.
