The venue is huge and mesmerizing. Color! Lights! Sound!
Founding Grateful Dead member Bob Weir, age 77. He was with GD from 1965 until they disbanded in 1995 when Jerry Garcia died. Dead & Company came together in 2015 with former GD members and world-class guitarist John Mayer, now 47. I wasn't a fan of GD and I'm still not a fan. All their music sounds alike to me. I did like "Death Don't Have No Mercy," an old gospel blues song recorded by Blind Gary Davis in 1960, featuring Mayer's smoking solo. We were immersed in graphic images on three sides plus the ceiling. 4D effects? Kind of like 3D too, where images appear to leave the screen. Our seats shook when the motorcycle rumbled. Compare the image size to the band on the stage.
Dead & Company music lends itself to psychedelic graphics. The Eagles will play the Sphere in September. I wonder what their graphics will be like?
