Mayer is killing it imo, even though he has impossible shoes to fill. We all know no one can replace Jerry but Mayer got his stuff DOWN 🤝 I think Jerry would be proud of this continuation of their music. They’re keeping the spirit alive.
In case anybody was wondering about the visuals, there are alot more to come and they will be adding them in each show. They are uploading more as we speak. Literally. The files for each of the visuals are over 10 TB in size and it takes forever to transfer to the server at the Sphere, so they are constantly transferring new files and adding them in as the residency goes on. They didn't have time to upload everything in the time between Phish's shows and the D&C shows. They talked about all of this Friday on the GD channel on SiriusXM.
So you're telling me that with all the cutting edge technology in the Sphere, they couldn't afford a good internet connection? I really need to hear this explanation on SiriusXM. 😂
@@larrym2434 you must be ignorant of how tEcHnOloGy works. It would be an offline download, has nothing to do with the internet. There is just so much data that has to be transferred because the files are abnormally large, and that takes time. The videos are in 12K resolution. I'm guessing you don't know what a TB is, but it's so large you wouldn't even use 1 TB of data on your phone in 2 years.
@@FaTalHaz3x Think harder, buddy. A TB is 1,000 GB. A USB 3.0 cable can transfer at the rate of 5Gbit/sec ( = 625MByte/sec) ... so a TB can be transferred from an external HD to a computer in 800 seconds, or less than 14 mintues. So ... a 10TB hard drive can be fedexed over night, and the whole contents can be transferred in under 140 minutes. Or with high speed fiber optic (AT&T sells fiber optic to consumers with same speed as USB 3.0 transfer) you can skip the FedEx overnight and make the transfer from Grateful Dead's production studio to Sphere computers in under 2.5 hours. Talk to your tech savvy friends if this doesn't make sense. Thank you and have a good day.
I don't know anything about the technology. If what you're saying is that much better visuals are on the way that's great. What I do know is that these aren't. This is probably my favorite dead tune and I envisioned alot more. Nine minutes in gets better
@@FaTalHaz3x OK, consider this. Say that the D&C video producers create a 10TB video file. They can overnight FedEx a 10TB hard drive (cost of HD - $250) Then, at the Sphere production studio in Vegas, they copy over the 10TB video via a USB 3.0 cable which transmits at 5Gbits/sec (= 625MB/sec). You’re smart so you know that there are 1,000GB in 1TB, so I’ll save you the math, but the file transfer will take 16,000 seconds, or just under 4.5 hours. Also, AT&T sells high speed fiber optic internet to consumers that will match the speed of a USB 3.0 cable, so instead of using FedEx, the 10TB file can be transferred over the internet in 4.5 hours. Of course, I am describing a consumer grade solution. A billion dollar operation like the Sphere could easily transfer files faster than what I have described, if they’re willing to spend a few thousand dollars on implementation. I’m still curious to know who was talking on SiriusXM, because either (1) You misheard them, or (2) they’re confused or (3) they’re blowing smoke. Thank you and have a good day.
Who gives a wet f if one can afford the ticket price...? Btw, don't you think the stuff they deliver soundwise as well as visiually got a lot more elaborate? To me that really justifies the ticketfare..
Ultimate venue!! Wow you guys have been in my life for sooooo over 55 years now and you are always Awesome!! I Love Yas, be safe, be well , and have a Grateful Show!!!!! Love Chinadoll1995 13:02
Scott, thank you so much. You have such wonderful video from Sphere, you capture the event so well with minimal intrusive camera fiddling. You got the best seating to experience the full event. What a great job !!! Thank you for your filming and your sharing.😊
It took 9 minutes to go somewhere visual. This comes close to being my favorite dead tune. I guess you have to be there. This song deserved more. Playing is awesome
Not only are your videos really good, you have a great last name :). Thanks for all the amazing content. I’m watching the 6/18 Eyes video (went to that show, great moment). You must have been 3 rows right behind me… Small world.
Just saw them last week at Sphere. My immediate response. Did tour in 80’s, seen hundreds of shows. I was just thinking that this new tempo would really have squelched my dancing fun! Miss Jerry so much.
Thx a lot for this. Most be an amazing experience experiencing the music and visuals live. As always it seems though as a large part of the audience is just as occupied with their conversations.......
LOTS OF MAYER HATERS HERE---THE MAN HAS IMPOSSIBLE SHOES TO FILL---GOTTA GIVE HIM THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT---WEIR WOULDN'T GIVE HIM THE TIME OF DAY IF HE WASN'T UBER TALENTED AND AN ACCEPTABLE FIT......MY 2 CENTS.....
Inside the Sphere Bobby's vocals sounded good, prob because the total sound was perfect. You could hear each string, etc. In other words, what was behind the voice balanced the overall sound. Most every song sounded A+ in the hall.
OMG, i suggest cleaning the wax out your ears....this literally sounds like a bad practice session and Weir can't even maintain a melody with his voice !
I love Dead n Co. and I really try not to complain about the tempo cause I truly do love them. But do you think Bobby could slow down Eyes anymore? This version was so incredibly slow.
Just commented about this above. Even added measures between lyrics. It’s beautiful, but slow. A lot of songs were (should I say Weir). Saw them twice last week.
30 years ago Jerry nearly died every time he was forced to take the stage to keep the machine rolling... but before that when Grateful Dead songs were actually performed very well you wouldn't need a mile long screen to distract you from the music. You closed your eyes and felt the spirit and soul of it.
Went to the Friday and Saturday show at the Vegas Sphere The band was excellent oh, teal on base was incredible. If you look at the video of Casey Jones from Saturday night, watch and listen to his playing
this is such an awesome tune to improvise to, I'm not a good guitar player...at all, but if you get in there you can make this sound good. Thanks for the video, couldn't be there, but this is Nice!
Deus .. como queria poder ir nesse show maravilhoso. É uma pena que nossa moeda está tão desvalorizada. Pagamos 5x mais caro que nossos irmãos do norte. Parabéns aos que foram e tiveram essa experiencia incrível.
Caught a almost full show on here I think the biggest difference between shows when I was a kid and now is all the talking going on now use to could here a pin drop especially when jdrry stepped to the mike china doll comes to mind
MIXED EMOTIONS ABOUT THIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE---MUSIC IS EXCELLENT--HAPPY WEIR IS KEEPING IT ALIVE--DISTANCE FROM THE STAGE SUCKS --CAN'T EVEN TELL YOU'rE WATCHING DEAD AND CO FROM THAT DISTANCE---KINDA LIKE ZOO TV THAT U2 INTRODUCED 30 yrs AGO OR SO---NOT SURE THIS WHOLE SPHERE THING IS GONNA ENDURE--ONLY SO MANY BANDS CAN GET AWAY WITH STREAMING CARTOONS WHILE THEY PLAY.....AM I OFF BASE???????????
Point Taken CASH to be there will not be popular for the the masses NOTHING like outdoors / fresh air / being in the natural environment - for me anyway
Did you record this all on a cell phone? It's amazing, very fluid, LOVE IT!. I live far away but now I'm right there at the Sphere. I had FOMO till now, thx to you. Will someone end up taking down all these videos? I hope not.
These visuals are incredible for this, just wish they'd get weirder with them. Feels strangely sterile for the offshoot of the hoary and wild grateful dead. Like chamber music or lounge GD. Round edges, no tooth or fang, but nice and pleasant regardless!
Totally agree about the visuals. I've seen WAY trippier stuff at shoreline in the 90's and at DSO concerts. Too much typical Dead iconography not twisted, divided and stretched into something truly wild and weird. Also, the typical space images and Google earth type stuff. Also, a lot of retro imagery of days gone by. Just make it seems like a Disney Dead...or Vegas Dead, which it is. The 50 ft images of the band aren't helping.
@francofrogg 🤢 man that really encapsulates it, Disney Dead. All nice, safe, and neatly packaged so you can come have a pleasant time without it getting too scary. No scraggly fat man smoking and wailing on an overdriven 15lb guitar to be found! But you will find comfortable volume levels and easy listening 😂
Mayer is killing it imo, even though he has impossible shoes to fill. We all know no one can replace Jerry but Mayer got his stuff DOWN 🤝 I think Jerry would be proud of this continuation of their music. They’re keeping the spirit alive.
Couldn’t agree more !!!
very true
Couldn’t disagree more. Sorry man. He’s a pop/blues guy. Doesn’t have a psychedelic lick in his tool box.
Glad your loving it so much
@@novakaya WOW! You are so totally wrong about Mayer!
@@dpayne7571 okay. Wouldn’t be the first time. I’m open. Send me a link to something that proves me wrong
Blessed to have this music in the world.
Agree!!

I was down on the floor for this set. It was so fucking cool. This has been my favorite way to see the Dead so far
Y FAVORITE SONG FROM THE DEAD.....LISTEN TO SEVERAL DIFFERENT VERSIONS DAILY.......
You know it's one of my favorites from the dead too
Which version is this , I like the guitar solo
They ALL are KILLING IT❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️Let the GOOD TIIMES ROLL FOREVER 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for posting , this great for the ones that won’t make the shows !
Scott, thank you so much. You have such wonderful video from Sphere, you capture the event so well with minimal intrusive camera fiddling. You got the best seating to experience the full event. What a great job !!! Thank you for your filming and your sharing.😊
Thank you Scott for posting all of these. This one made me shed a tear. So beautiful 😊❤
so amazingly perfect brings tears to my eyes 🙏
I been having a blast watching this just from my family room these past few weeks. Thanks for posting!
Wow, just wow. Thanks for sharing. Great AV ☮️💜🎵
Thanks so much for sharing, and caring for the quality!
thanks for the upload, sadly this wont last long glad to see it while i can.
hope you had fun man! wish i coulda been there to spin with ya!
Great lighting! It's keeping Billy from getting bored. Thanks 🙏
Let's just enjoy the music at whatever pace.
Some songs I up the replay speed.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this tempo.
How can you not help but SMILE! SMILE!! SMILE!!! ?
Eye of the world was some of the craziest visuals of the show so far
Sounds amazing... love, love, love it !
Great! Thanks for getting me as close to the show as I'm going to get.
Sounds good in the headphones right now... Wish I had the time to go see it for myself.
I’m sorry I complained before… thank you so much for posting!!!I’ll be there Memorial Day weekend
This is a nice version. Nice amazing performance
Really something! Thanks for sharing! ™️😎🌺
SORRY BUT NO ONE SINGS IT LIKE JERRY......DAMN IT I MISS HIM
It's OK.
Looks like the audience is savoring the experience!
Really, you can see the crowd ?!
Beautiful, I'll never make it to Vegas but it's amazing to see Bobby and the band carry the torch.
It took 9 minutes to go somewhere visual. This comes close to being my favorite dead tune. I guess you have to be there. This song deserved more. Playing is awesome
Could he sound quality, came across a post on instagram from the bottom with better sound and the boys sounded amazing

Small world.
Bob Weir keeps slowing everything down slower and slower and slower. It's like he is sitting in his rocking chair.
Just saw them last week at Sphere. My immediate response. Did tour in 80’s, seen hundreds of shows. I was just thinking that this new tempo would really have squelched my dancing fun! Miss Jerry so much.
Chills.....memories that never fade
Won’t be able to attend this events thank you so much for sharing ❤❤
Wonderful...simply wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
Thx a lot for this. Most be an amazing experience experiencing the music and visuals live. As always it seems though as a large part of the audience is just as occupied with their conversations.......
Scott, you operated that camera like a pro! Such a smooth audience video, and the sound is grate too!
Beautiful and can't wait for our shows in June
LOTS OF MAYER HATERS HERE---THE MAN HAS IMPOSSIBLE SHOES TO FILL---GOTTA GIVE HIM THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT---WEIR WOULDN'T GIVE HIM THE TIME OF DAY IF HE WASN'T UBER TALENTED AND AN ACCEPTABLE FIT......MY 2 CENTS.....
Holy crap they sound great. :) :) :)
What an incredible phenomenon
Nothing lije a phenomenom !! LOL
Tempo's not that many BPM below normal....but Bob's vocals, man, ugh! Sounds like he's doing a parody of himself. Oteil's solo was trippy/awesome!
Inside the Sphere Bobby's vocals sounded good, prob because the total sound was perfect. You could hear each string, etc.
In other words, what was behind the voice balanced the overall sound.
Most every song sounded A+ in the hall.
Wow 😃 This is beautiful ❤️
Awesome video. Thank you!
Excellent thanks so much
thank you sounds just lovely 💙
Blessed Be & Merry Meet & Merry Meet Again My Family So Mote It Be🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️ I feel a SPHERE-A-CAL OF THE MIRACULOUS KIND COMING DFFD
I love the way they arranged eyes for this show- no sure if they've done it this way before but I was blown away
Time to transcribe!
OMG, i suggest cleaning the wax out your ears....this literally sounds like a bad practice session and Weir can't even maintain a melody with his voice !
This is amazing
Is it?
@earthsucks9555 your jealousy is delicious. Keep that shit up!
Love it!!
Dear Lord
Yes, dear lord make it stop !! LOL
Mayer should sing more of the Jerry tunes.
Looks and sounds good to me 😎
dead forever
Stage looks so stark without the carpets
thanks for posting!!
I love Dead n Co. and I really try not to complain about the tempo cause I truly do love them. But do you think Bobby could slow down Eyes anymore? This version was so incredibly slow.
Just commented about this above. Even added measures between lyrics. It’s beautiful, but slow. A lot of songs were (should I say Weir). Saw them twice last week.
That's a wild venue. Wow.
This song still makes me cry
Sweet thank u 😜🍄
if only we had this 30 years ago........
30 years ago Jerry nearly died every time he was forced to take the stage to keep the machine rolling... but before that when Grateful Dead songs were actually performed very well you wouldn't need a mile long screen to distract you from the music. You closed your eyes and felt the spirit and soul of it.
Just my opinion but I feel like mayer should be singing the Jerry stuff. Bobby just never had that kind of emotion in his voice.
Fckin A right bro the energy isn’t there let that young gun stir it up !!
And Mayer does??
Kid hasn’t lived hard enough to inhabit these songs with any meaning man
Bob Weir can't sing at all and Mayer is just too bubble gum pop sounding.
This band is a straight mess !
The song where all the Dogs, Bird's, Cat's and a few Fish I've lived with wait to pop out at Me and carress my soul.
Holy fuck, some out of this world shit this is awesome thanks for the vid
Love this band.
Insanely beautiful, Scott. Camerawork par excellence. Thank you.
Insane yes, beautiful no !
Holy Cow that place is gigantic 😳
Shout out to Johnny nailing it good. I think Jerry is smiling down, hope they’ll do Terrapin Station when I go in July!
Oh man thank you for this
Simply adore the dancin' bears
LOL some of the visuals would be best used in a kids nursery to lull them to sleep
What version of the song plays the guitar solo this long I can’t find it
imagine a pink floyd concert here 😮💨
Get me off this elevator!
Went to the Friday and Saturday show at the Vegas Sphere The band was excellent oh, teal on base was incredible. If you look at the video of Casey Jones from Saturday night, watch and listen to his playing
Thanks Scotty! Hope to see you soon! Come down to our June Mars Hotel show at TBE!
So this is what a Grateful Dead cover band featuring Bob Weir sounds like these days.
Damn, that's harsh!!!
So did this comment bring Jerry back?
You may want to experience the show live, if you want to actually know what the show sounds like.. , there, sparks
@@jntproductions1 He's gonnnnne, he's gonne on, and nothing's gonna bring him back...
@@esparka Yeah, no thanks.
You don't have time to call your Soul a critic, no ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks Scott. Very, very, very much NFA
Going next weekend but dang they played alot of songs I wanted to hear and dont see repeats this early in the tour
Isn’t this only the second show???? Repeats on this run??? 🤷♂️
If they didn't do a Wall of Sound backdrop, it was the missed opportunity of the century.
They did...
They did and it is amazing to watch it build!
This sounds pretty fucking good
Caught a almost full show on here I think the biggest difference between shows when I was a kid and now is all the talking going on now use to could here a pin drop especially when jdrry stepped to the mike china doll comes to mind
So much Dead&Co hate?
why so angry?
Namaste
I think it’s the cost & drastic difference in sound compared to the original.
Naww somethin else goin on here, cause nobody be yapping bout phish tix.
There was tons of hate with the screensavers used on night one of Phish.
More anger, hatred, negativity and criticizing in our world. Also attachment to “what was.”
Back in the 80's and 90's we didn't have social media for people to complain. The pace of this Eyes is very similar to Eyes of that time.
The shortest nineteen minutes of my life.
Hope to see some of you in Berkeley on July 13th 😎🤙

These shows will be shown for years to come at the sphere.
Oh look, they played cartoons in the background.
Imagine being there high
These visuals are incredible for this, just wish they'd get weirder with them. Feels strangely sterile for the offshoot of the hoary and wild grateful dead. Like chamber music or lounge GD. Round edges, no tooth or fang, but nice and pleasant regardless!
Totally agree about the visuals. I've seen WAY trippier stuff at shoreline in the 90's and at DSO concerts. Too much typical Dead iconography not twisted, divided and stretched into something truly wild and weird. Also, the typical space images and Google earth type stuff. Also, a lot of retro imagery of days gone by. Just make it seems like a Disney Dead...or Vegas Dead, which it is. The 50 ft images of the band aren't helping.
You haven’t seen ‘em all. There’s many different visuals throughout the shows. ✌🏼❤️🎶
@francofrogg 🤢 man that really encapsulates it, Disney Dead. All nice, safe, and neatly packaged so you can come have a pleasant time without it getting too scary. No scraggly fat man smoking and wailing on an overdriven 15lb guitar to be found! But you will find comfortable volume levels and easy listening 😂
