Saw a lot of shows in the 70's and 80's. Jerry was the soul of the band but Bob brought the energy every night. We are blessed that he is still bringing it. Peace.
That was nuts!! We were down front standing against rails as my wife of 20 years whose very first ever show. Haha She's dealt with me and my obsession the whole time we've been together. She loved the music and the everything. Thank you Grateful Dead at my official final show at DeerCreek!!! Off to a crap ton of Widespread Panic shows. Life is good if you love music.
I miss Jerry but I will admit that ever since the dead continued without him, and especially now, I love the little Change-Ups and little ways they make the music interesting as the years go along...
That finale- gives me something no other dead song has given me.. I just keep playing the last 3 min on repeat.. it was the best moment of the whole tour. Words can’t describe the soul
It's just prue improv man. Yk Dark Star wasn't on the set & they sure as hell never played it like this. It's always so beautiful when the boys do some crazy improv, but this was really something completely different. I had a friend who was there & he lost his shit 😂😂 what a jam!
Can we take one moment to appreciate Mickey Hart STILL using all four limbs to drum? This man is the unstoppable force that the immovable object is gonna have to reckon with
this show was by far the best of the twelve Dead Co shows we saw on Summer '23 tour. and wow this was something I've never heard in 30 years of following the Dead it was an amazing, mind bending show. in the spinner pit where we were dancing sh** was bananas. & can I just mention once again how amazing Jeff Chimenti can be when he goes off?
Amazing how bob communicates with the rest of the band to lead into this improvisation, it looks like him and micky are giving the rest of the band the show of their lifetime right here. Legendary
I was there! It's literally the highlight of my summer, hearing this unlikely and totally awesome mash up! I clearly remember looking at my friend with an amazed yet questioning look, silently asking, "do you hear what I hear? But that's the lyrics to ... Dark Star?! Whaaat?!" Blew my mind! 😂🤯 What a fun night. The Deer Creek fans go HARD! ❤
@@nelsonw2096 100% I found that out pretty quickly with those live streams last year. I found there is a giant section of that between Jerry and Kieth on Truckin from Europe 72 as well. A beautiful musical arrangement/conversation
I was there at the very front of the lawn by column F - they stole every face in the venue when Bobby started in on Dark Star v2! Still looking for mine a week later
Brother..I was by column F one step on the lawn and for a little height had the cement curb to stand on when Id take a few seconds to watch and not dance. faces stolen for sure. Bob for sure locked in our location for that as he did for the JStraw>TLEO in '91. He's done that a bit for me. He's looking right there with soulful and prankster vigor
This was 100% improvised, the set list did not have dark star on it, Bobby led the band and they all watched him and followed. Oteil looks dosed and froze in amazement
@@skidood7244 instrumentally only and only once, in Boston. This was the only time they sang the lyrics and Jeff said it was not planned according to Dave Gans.
8:21 is my favorite part of this whole thing. John hits that Jerry Dark Star lick into the chorus so perfectly and looks over at Jeff right after knowing he just did something sick in a clearly unplanned moment. Bob and the boys refuse to stick to the norm no matter how many go arounds they've given this thing.
John is having the time of his life “playing on that playground” as he once said… and it’s written all over his face all the time while on stage with them.
I’ve been playing both of these songs for ages… but that version of dark star, that was unexpected! No one can replace Jerry, but mad respect for John…
man this brought me to tears......... "night fallllll". "night falllll" Absolutely screaming natural iomprov on this one. Bobby pushing the band to expand on it. just lovely
So grateful I got to share Wrigley field show's and this amazing Deer Creek with my Mom this summer. This tour was fantastic. Out of all the shows I attended this summer this was the best one by far!!!! That Sugaree Solo blew my whistle hard!
I just love this! I am so grateful that Bobby gave our beloved GD a new breath with Dead and Co.🎉 This little jamb sums it all up! Till we meet again my friends! ❤
One of the things I loved about this show was that the security was loose and we danced freely in the aisles like in the Jerry Days. It felt so good and so right!
Holy fucking smokes. Seen various acts weir has played in over the past 15 years and this is some of the best singing I've heard him do. Hats off Mr. Weir, hats off!
Nope - it means your heart is open. Keep it that way at all costs !! Lotsa great stuff out there - I misted up at the Fleet Foxes show I just saw - just beautiful
❤Love you so fuckin much Bobby❤ Fucking CRUSHED IT!!! I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOU BOB WEIR. IM GLAD YOU DIDNT GIVE UP A LITTLE WHILE BACK AND AFTER WATCHING THIS, DUDE FUCK YEAHHHHHH ❤ I LOVE YOU BOBBY ❤ LOVE TO THE WHOLE WORLD
drove out to Indiana from Pittsburgh for this show. didn't buy my ticket til I was in my hotel room. Pittsburgh was the best show overall of my tour, but Deer Creek and Cincinnati first sets were the best 4 set ever and I want the PRESSING
man, drove from MN > IN at around 5:30 AM when my flight got cancelled. I arrived to IN around 4:30 and headed directly to shakedown and my friends. best show of my life.
Was at this show with my wife and a couple friends. I told them before the show that the fun of it was having no idea what would happen. It was really a special moment when Dark Star wove in the way it does. Was beautiful weather, the house was packed, and the sound was great. An all-around good time!
Really wish I coulda caught them this last tour :( 5 shows are my total since 2015 my first show with these guys in D.C. what a treat it’s been learning and loving this music and community, man are they killing it this tour too ❤ love you all great times 🎉 more to come !
I haven't seen any D+C live in person, but have been very impressed their playing. Especially, later in 2022, when I thought they were playing at their best. What I've seen and heard from this "Last" tour lately, is beyond anything before 2023..?! It's like the bands been "unchained", and allowed to really put their all into it, after mastering when "not to play" (Originally, Bob told John he'd need to "Know not to overplay, but to overplay"..?! It could have been an old Jerry saying, but I'll never forget John speaking on this). Jay has really been "Driving that Train", and they've been sounding phenomenal! I hope these weren't the "Musical Differences" behind Billy leaving the band before the tour (he's healthy! 👍). Some really great, special music being created this Tour! Last time I saw the Grateful Dead, in Vermont, 95, it was quite the opposite. Jerry was barely playing, and struggling with the teleprompter lyrics..?! We knew he was doing Dope again, but this wasn't from a lack of, or too much of it..?! Jerry had anything he needed..?! Word on the lot was "DC was the best show", so others were noticing Jerry wasn't well. I wasn't surprised when he passed away, soon after the tour. Shocked to the core, though! No one ever imagined there would suddenly be a time with "No Grateful Dead". Done and over..?! That was reality though. I never imagined in my wildest dreams, that'd I'd hear new Dead, that ever even came close to the original..?! They had it all mastered, finally, it seemed in much of 2022. Now, the gates have been opened and they're pushing each other to some heights I never would have imagined! I've never seen the band members smiling this much, ever! They're realing having a blast! "Last Tour"..?! When just starting to peak..?! Hopefully plenty of "random" shows..?! They sure don't look, and definitely don't sound, ready to slow down, let alone stop having the blast we're all having..?! I'm quite positive they're going to keep playing together. Maybe a different name..?! There's definitely some Strangeness going on..?!🤔👍💯🔥🔥🔥💪⚡🎶⚡🫠
@@timturk1899Bobby is touring with Wolf Bros now (yawn)... And Bill Kreutzmann had to step down for health reasons. His cardiologist said he could only do one show every 2 weeks. He still plays with Billy & The Kids, and their tempo is on point.
That’s a 75 year old man who’s given his life to this thing. Thank you Bobby. That was beautiful
Right??!! ❤ OH BOBBY ❤ WE LOVE YOU SO FKN MUUUUUUUCH!!!
Your Bobby is a wonderland
Bobby is healthier then people a quarter his age it’s oretty wild. All that LSD did it’s thing
Bobby is a national treasure
So is Phil, Mickey, and Billy
Just heard this for the first time. Wild, brilliant and fun. ❤️
I WAS THERE! I cried when they went into dark star lol
Best dark river I ever heard!
it gives only this one...
Saw a lot of shows in the 70's and 80's. Jerry was the soul of the band but Bob brought the energy every night. We are blessed that he is still bringing it. Peace.

Awesome ! So happy for you!
See ya there bud! Gonna miss D&C but at least we still got Panic
So you in Huntsville 7/30? Never miss a Sunday show!
I was right there with you in the pit! ✌️🙏💙👍⚡☠️
Married 40 years this passed Sunday and my wife has never seen a single show. As much as I love this it’s not her thing.
I miss Jerry but I will admit that ever since the dead continued without him, and especially now, I love the little Change-Ups and little ways they make the music interesting as the years go along...
Thanks Bob Jerry would be proud of all u have done you have given your life to carry this touch thankyou
clear on-the-spot innovation by Bobby and the band. Fantastic.
Loving it
Probably my favorite concert I have ever been to. Grateful. Thank you uploading this.
We don’t believe you

SPECTACULAR! Love Bobby’s reaction at end of DS jam. Thank you Bobby, and all, for everything you have given for music & us👏👏❤️✨🙌🌎✌️
Bobby stole not just the audiences face but his own too. Blew his own mind😂😂😂💀⚡️⚘️
Amazing how bob communicates with the rest of the band to lead into this improvisation, it looks like him and micky are giving the rest of the band the show of their lifetime right here. Legendary
mickey hit that beam right when he knew where it was going.
Gosh damn that was awesome. Im glad i was there to see it live
Yeah man !! Me too
Word!!
Happened 2 weeks ago today and I'm still thinking about it :)
Same

My god that’s good
@@greenrockyroad3845 Hello there
This really is so good. The audio is amazing. Bob's vocals are great. John and the key player are really unbelievable.
Jeff Chimenti ⚡️
Agreed, great audio, Bobby is energized, John is ripping, what a great tune.
One of the great joys of D&C is listening to John and Jeff’s “conversations.”
@@nelsonw2096 100% I found that out pretty quickly with those live streams last year. I found there is a giant section of that between Jerry and Kieth on Truckin from Europe 72 as well. A beautiful musical arrangement/conversation
Thank you Bobby changed my life forever. Such good memories since 1976 when the bus came by and I got on. 😊
Good for you.... I got on in April 1975.....
Bobby is the greatest.
My head just exploded
I was there at the very front of the lawn by column F - they stole every face in the venue when Bobby started in on Dark Star v2! Still looking for mine a week later
I was right by you then!!!!
I’m still looking for my truck in the parking lot.
I was by column G and I agree!!!
Brother..I was by column F one step on the lawn and for a little height had the cement curb to stand on when Id take a few seconds to watch and not dance. faces stolen for sure. Bob for sure locked in our location for that as he did for the JStraw>TLEO in '91. He's done that a bit for me. He's looking right there with soulful and prankster vigor
No they didn’t quit lying the only thing stolen was your money congrats you gave John Mayer a few coins for his next fancy watch hahahaha
This was 100% improvised, the set list did not have dark star on it, Bobby led the band and they all watched him and followed. Oteil looks dosed and froze in amazement
They've actually done this mashup before
Yah right. John meeger ruins this music
@@biffjohnson7891your opinion is baffling. JM plays guitar well. The problem people have with JM is everything but his guitar play.
@@biffjohnson7891 WHAT??? NO!!
@@skidood7244 instrumentally only and only once, in Boston. This was the only time they sang the lyrics and Jeff said it was not planned according to Dave Gans.
I come back to this gem at least once a week, seen Dead and Co more times than i can count, but this one here is Brilliant!!!! ❤ it
THIS IS INCREDIBLE. Played at least 30X over. I was lucky enough to be the show at Wrigley with a great friend earlier same month!
the musics playing the band!

This was my first ever Dead show, I'll never forget it
sweet every cool
I’ve been playing both of these songs for ages… but that version of dark star, that was unexpected! No one can replace Jerry, but mad respect for John…
Sadly I didn't get to see the grateful dead with Jerry, but I was present for this craziness and for that I'm grateful
DARK RIVER!
man this brought me to tears......... "night fallllll". "night falllll"
Absolutely screaming natural iomprov on this one. Bobby pushing the band to expand on it. just lovely
This is righteous.
So grateful I got to share Wrigley field show's and this amazing Deer Creek with my Mom this summer. This tour was fantastic. Out of all the shows I attended this summer this was the best one by far!!!! That Sugaree Solo blew my whistle hard!

Love that you called it Deer Creek. You're definitely over the age of 35
It will always be deer creek!💯
Bobby still driving without a net! Love seeing him be the one driving the band to take a risk off the standard jam
Jeff always has a smile. He really looks like he is enjoying himself up there.
Well Jerry would be proud of you he's up there saying nice
I was there in the pit! My first D&C show and I got to witness this incredible moment!
Me too buddy!
Holy fucking smokes. Seen various acts weir has played in over the past 15 years and this is some of the best singing I've heard him do. Hats off Mr. Weir, hats off!
epic,never forget this show
Amazing,it’s killing me how good they are sounding, and it’s coming to a end. Thank you Bobby and company
That made the show for me. Tears.
I’m a 52 year old man. I cry tears of joy when I see music performed like this. Is there something wrong with me? 😭😭😭
No. Not at all, my friend. Today`s music is a soulless vacuum. Grateful Dead music speaks to the Heart.
Nope - it means your heart is open. Keep it that way at all costs !!
Lotsa great stuff out there - I misted up at the Fleet Foxes show I just saw - just beautiful
Lovely to hear John Mayer channeling Jerry. And I just can't say enough about Bobby.
Love it all my life
thank you for sharing. Ive only seen clips.
2023 and still as awesome as since time began what a legend
Telling us all....emphasis on 'im gonna sit right here until i die'!!! 💯
Probably the best moment of the tour for me.
"The Dead" live on! Keep rocking
Well done guys! 👏🏽
Taste of the lil “new” Dark Star would of been a treat there is no doubt! ✨💨⚡️
Happy for all who attended.
❤Love you so fuckin much Bobby❤ Fucking CRUSHED IT!!! I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOU BOB WEIR. IM GLAD YOU DIDNT GIVE UP A LITTLE WHILE BACK AND AFTER WATCHING THIS, DUDE FUCK YEAHHHHHH ❤ I LOVE YOU BOBBY ❤ LOVE TO THE WHOLE WORLD
I've been following the 🎵🎶🎵.....Since Europe 72.....live since 1975....and it's So Good to Hear it Up And Running Again!!! Oh Yeah!!!!
The way Bobby sings “here” with that southern draw stirs my soul
Holy Smokes- so freaking amazing.
Thanks for posting! this was my first ‘dead’ show but was way back in the sea of the lawn so cool to see!
I was there, sixth row or so. Killer show that night and the I know you rider was so good
I was right by sound. Agreed… China/Rider never gets old
Wow, these guys are pretty good!
drove out to Indiana from Pittsburgh for this show. didn't buy my ticket til I was in my hotel room. Pittsburgh was the best show overall of my tour, but Deer Creek and Cincinnati first sets were the best 4 set ever and I want the PRESSING
I still want a vinyl pressing from this show!!!!
This is so incredibly cool I can’t even believe it. Go Bobby! This is the shit, folks.
That De'angelico looks sick
I've seen it around...Its one hell of a guitar!
Looks like John turns to Jeff right at the end and says “that was awesome”, and indeed it was
That was epic! Amazing band.
man, drove from MN > IN at around 5:30 AM when my flight got cancelled. I arrived to IN around 4:30 and headed directly to shakedown and my friends. best show of my life.
I was there. He could have phoned It in. Thanks, Bob...
Wow!! That was cool and awesome. 🎉
This must be a highlight of a great finale.❤🎉😊

Flawless tight groove
holly christ this is incredible
They were on fire!
I enjoy sharing this one with my burnout friends who like to spew the "Dead & Slow" narrative and watch them recant.
Thank you for all these years of carry on the music for 75 Bob you sound great I heard Robert plant the other day he 75 his voice is shot
Hell Yes. I needed this today. ❤❤❤

Very nice, thanks.
Wow! I wasn't expecting THAT!
Go bobby and the fellas.... omg. so awesome. THANKS BOBBBBY!
I can't lie that confused the hell out of me (not hard to do) when I heard it live, but it makes a little more sense now! Well done
Thanks! That was even better the second time around!
So glad I was there must have been the roses also blew me away it made me cry.
Great VIDEO Footage
You can tell just how much otiel is loving this
Sounding good fellas

KillAH Jammagges!! Good TimeZ must've been HAD by ALL 🌈🔥🎶💃🕺
Bobby still got the chops for this great tune….. GREAT TUNE AND GREAT RESPECT FOR JOHNNY CASH
That’s crazy awesome!!!
Jerry was smiling down at this one, Bobby. You're beautiful, man.
That gave me goosebumps.
This is the type of thing I've been waiting this band to do for 8 years now!!! I love this ❤
Absolutely incredible!! Thank you Bobby!! Also jays shirt!!!
