The Fabric Holds: Standing Amid 60 Years of Deadheads

From London to San Francisco to Vegas, the threads of the Grateful Dead keep pulling me into unexpected connections. In this episode of So Many Roads, I follow those threads through a Dead & Company 60th anniversary show — from running into friends I first met in London, to a surprise backstage moment with Les Claypool, to standing among both brand-new Deadheads and veterans who’ve been there since the beginning.Along the way, I talk with the Do Dad, who shares how he once found himself in the studio with Hot Tuna and the Grateful Dead, and with my longtime friend Rose, who recalls meeting Wavy Gravy during the anniversary week and what it means to live where this music first took root.It’s a story about generations colliding, connections spiraling back, and how — after sixty years — the fabric of the Deadhead community still holds.Thanks for riding along on So Many Roads. If you’re enjoying the journey, follow, rate, and share the show — it really helps the music reach more people. Find all episodes, videos, and extras here: https://linktr.ee/somanyroadspodcast
