What? You didn't hear? It's time to bust out the tie-dyes, tune in, turn on, and yeah. . . Dark Star Orchestra, whose Grateful Dead covers are played in the same style, as the original. Some swear that they close their eyes and are transported back to 1980, or 1969 or 1992 or whatever show or song they happen to be performing that night. Dark Star Orchestra is coming WEDNESDAY NIGHT to Detroit’s Majestic Theater. As any Deadhead who’s seen them will attest, these guys are phenomenal! Dark Star Orchestra built their reputation by reproducing entire shows, song-for-song, from the Grateful Dead’s history.
Dark Star Orchestra Majestic Theater –8pm Wed. 1/26/2011 – All Ages Welcome! $20 in advance/ $25 day of show
MCB’s Andrew Bender will be at the Majestic shooting the show and possibly spinning in circles by the back stairs. If you buy him a drink, the ghost of Jerry Garcia may appear.
Check out DSO playing the classic Dead tune ‘China Cat Sunflower.’
