Dead & Company performed at the Sphere Saturday featuring a mix of Grateful Dead classics and unique setlist choices.
The band surprised fans by including “Terrapin Station” in the first set, a departure from its usual placement in the second set, and paid tribute to Phil Lesh with a tease of “My Favorite Things” during “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall.”
The setlist included a mix of familiar tunes like “Eyes of the World” and “Deal” along with unexpected covers like The Band’s “The Weight.”
The second set kicked off with “Hell in a Bucket” and featured pairings like “China Cat Sunflower,” “I Know You Rider,” “Help on the Way,” and “Slipknot!” before transitioning into slower tunes like “Row Jimmy” and “Brokedown Palace.”
The concert concluded with a nod to the Grateful Dead’s legacy with a broadcast reel before ending on a high note with “One More Saturday Night,” marking the end of this week’s concert series before the band’s return in April.
