The Dead To Play The BJC

The Dead To Play The BJC

One of the greatest bands in music history will play the Bryce Jordan Center on October 13, 2008.

 

The Grateful Dead will reunite to play the State College venue in order to drum up support and raise funds for Democratic presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama.

 

Original Dead members Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Bill Kreutzmann and Micky Hart along with guitarist Warren Hayes and keyboard player Jeff Chimenti will play along with The Allman Brothers Band.

 

The Grateful Dead, whose career spans several decades, have contributed such hits as "Casy Jones", "Truckin" and "A Touch of Grey", which was their only top ten single.

 

The show of course will be missing Dead ring leader Jerry Garcia, who passed away in 1995.

 

This show is a continuation of their last show the band played for Obama in San Francisco last year.

 

It is assumed the venue is sold out for the concert.
