On Thursday, Feb. 9th, the premier Grateful Dead tribute band returns to the Majestic Theatre. Dark Star Orchestra, long known for their song-for-song recreations of Grateful Dead shows has been around and touring for so long they recently celebrated their 2000th show - yes, the band that pays tribute to the spirit of Jerry Garcia and Co. is approaching the 2,300+ shows that the Dead actually performed in their own day. While former Dead musicians still play with their own projects, the truth is that none can match that of Dark Star Orchestra as a means of teleportation through space and time to take you back to experience as close as you'll get to the real thing.
A lucky few MCB readers will also have a chance to win tickets to see Dark Star Orchestra - send your name and phone number to motorcityblog@earthlink.net with 'I NEED A MIRACLE' in the subject line.
