Grahame Lesh and the Lesh Family are proud to announce the return of the Terrapin Roadshow in 2026. More than a concert series, the Roadshow carries forward the spirit, sound, and sense of belonging that defined Terrapin Crossroads, creating a traveling home for this music and the community that has always followed it.
We’ve sought out some of the most intimate, magical, and majestic outdoor amphitheaters on the West Coast and beyond - from Northern California to the Rogue Valley in Oregon to the Western Slope of Colorado, we promise you’ll love these incredible venues.
Musically, the Roadshow is rooted deeply in the Grateful Dead songbook and tradition, honoring what came before while leaving space for exploration. With a rotating cast of world-class musicians, no two nights are ever the same. Expect beloved songs, deep cuts, and electrifying jams, played with intention, joy, and a shared understanding of why this music still matters.
If you’ve been wondering where to go, who to see, or maybe just been looking for familiar faces, We’ve got you covered. Keep On Truckin’ On…

August in Glenwood
Looks like I'll meet up with Oro in Glenwood for a couple shows in August. I'll roll in Saturday for the evening show, roll on after the Sunday afternoon show. Sure would be fun to join others from the forum. Personally, I don't go to tribute bands; making an exception here. Last GD-related shows probably the Phil Lesh Quintet runs, oh yeah and Phil & Friends with John Scofield, maybe Ratdog at Denver Fillmore. The Terrapin Roadshows will be three weeks shy of the 54th anniversary of my 1st GD show. So, what the hell? Let's get on with the show. HF
Ain't nothin' shakin' ...
So I might just as well.
That is, if the fates allow.
I missed the Grand Junction TTB.
Glenwood's like 3 hours from me.
Cheers
Summers here and the time is right…
…for dancing in the streets…er, a, I mean park.
Confluence park that is on the Colorado river, surrounded by beautiful Red Rock mountains in downtown Glenwood Springs Colorado!
Some of us Dnet “allstars” lol are going to use the shows as a chance to meet up and perhaps take our online friendships furthur! Ever wonder how Hendrix freaks organic form compares to his digital one, well here’s your chance. Just one example of course, hopefully we’ll be able to compare many more!
HF, myself and TOO have tix. Not sure about Istshow7878 or Bluecrow, but they said they would be there if their schedules allow. I’ve also pestered Jeff Smith, DV, Vguy, Jiminmd, etc.oh yeah, and Dennis, who due to the unfortunate passing of his very old D-O-G, (please except our condolences) now be interested also. Sure would be sweet if they, as well as some other of our brothers and sisters here on Dnet, could join us!!
Glenwood Springs is a nice summer outdoor destination in itself, but there’s also lots of music in the mountains around that time. Sorry I haven’t had time to compile a comprehensive list, but Jrad, Little Feat, String Cheese, Gov Mule are just a few. Little Feats Billy Paine is now officially on the TC schedule, and other special guests are promised!
I’ll try to compile a better concert list and some of the many natural and outdoor activities, including the famous Glenwood Hot Springs/Caves and pool.
Good stay options available from camping to high end luxury.
Aspens about a half hour, Vails an hour, if your looking for a luxury experience, and the amazing Glenwood Canyon flows right into town.
Perhaps make it a part of a family vaca!
I’m not compensated for this sales pitch, just would love to meet as many of you good folks as we can, but it is a busy place in summer so make your plans/reservations etc asap if your joining us as the hours getting late…
And wether you rise, fall, or climb to get to Terrapin, there’s ample means of conveyance with I70 through town, an Amtrak station nearby, airports at Eagle 1/2 hour, Aspen 45 minutes, Grand Junction 1.5 hours, and Denver less than 3 hours.
So chever way, the compass always points to Terrapin ; )
Hopefully this might get some mojo working, and I’ll feed y’all more info when I get a chance.
Doesn’t matter what you ware, just as long as you are there!
Hell, maybe Dave Lemieux will join us ; )
