A lot of the better-known other bands have topics of their own. If you don't see your particular favorite with its own topic, feel free to talk about it here. And hey, if it takes on a life of its own we'll give it a topic!

10th Annual Warren Haynes Christmas Pre-Jam

Why is Warren Haynes smiling? Because a whole bunch of his musician friends and thousands of fans will gather in Asheville this weekend for the 20th Annual Warren Haynes Christmas Jam Weekend, benefiting the Asheville Area Habitat for Humanity. It kicks off this Thursday (Dec. 11th) with the 10th Annual Christmas Pre-Jam, broadcast LIVE on WNCW 88.7 and streamed on WNCW.org from Asheville's own The Orange Peel. Warren and his friends always light up the stage - and WNCW's airwaves - with hot performances and special guests, and WNCW takes you there LIVE.

Join us LIVE on-the-air (88.7 FM) or online, and hear who joins Warren & friends onstage! Thursday, starting at 6:00 PM on WNCW and WNCW.org!

The last time we played Moondog's in December, it was a day in Pittsburgh kinda like this one....cold, wet & snowy. We didn't think too many people would come, but wouldn't you know it? Great crowd and it was a night of pure magic!

Tonight, we return to Moondog's in December on a cold, wet & snowy night and we're having our First Annual Eat-Drink-And-Be-Merry Holiday Potluck Party! If you're in the 'Burgh, come on out and bring a hot or cold dish (and enough to share!)!! Doors open at 7pm and music starts around 10pm. We have a great list of tunes on tap and BOTH lovely ladies, CHERYLANN HAWK and JILL PAONE SIMMONS will be singing with us all night. Hope to see you there!

Oh, one more thing....here's the link for that cold, wet & snowy night in December '06 from Moondog's...fun stuff....

Santa Barbara Cover Bands?

Anyone know of any Grateful Dead-oriented bands in Santa Barbara? Moving from Albany where I can go out once a week and see an awesome cover for $5 plus a lot of other live music in the area, so I guess I kinda took it for granted at thought of not having that available to me . I actually don't know what I'd do being able to listenin to the music play when I get confused ;-). I'd definitely love to know where to find the local heads and good music. Much thanks.

Just caught three shows (Northhampton, Mass - and 12/30 & 12/31 Vancouver, BC)... these guys are amazing! If you are into kick ass music with a message then check them out...

WAHOO

ASWAH

STS9

I didnt see any comments on STS9. They are one of my top five bands at present. Surprised I didnt see any thing about them on the board. They are going to do two sets at Wakarusa. Sort of electronic Dead with no vocals lol ...... peace

Steve Kimock

Kimock with anybody. Last time I saw him was with Everyone Orchestra (another great improv project - quality depending on who's in the band at the moment).

Cornmeal - acoustic jammulation

Keller Williams, especially with Moseley, Droll and Sipes (WMDS)

Elephant Revival (sweet gypsy sweetness - beautiful people playing beautiful music)

Hot Buttered Rum

Anyone with Scott Law

I think all the above can be found on archive.org

DARK STAR ORCHESTRA

Dark star orchestra is probably the closest thing you'll ever get to a dead show. Note from note JohnK. (Jerrys part) Is a dead on match. Keller Williams is a great band too. Little Feet are a great band as well. Gettin pumped for the P.A. shows . Hope to see you all on tour!
