Dead & Company is the latest rendition of the Grateful Dead put together by surviving member, Bob Weir. In years past accomplished musicians such as Jimmy Herring, Warren Haynes and Trey Anastasio sat in place of the late lead guitarist for the band Jerry Garcia. But following what were supposed to be the final 50th Anniversary Grateful Dead shows in 2015 with the surviving members, Weir, Mickey Hart, Billy Kreutzmann and Phil Lesch, Weir put together Dead & Co.

It's the first full August weekend and Saratoga Race Course season is in full stride. The 94th running of the Grade 1 Whitney Stakes on Saturday afternoon highlights a terrific weekend in the SPA City. Few families have done more for the horse racing community, especially in Saratoga, than the Whitney family. Their named stakes race has featured some of the greatest horses in racing history and this weekend may feature others. The Whitney is just one of a full weekend card of awesome Saratoga Race Course action.

This is one sure way to be arrested at a New York concert this Summer.

Concerts are returning to New York but at what cost to you and me? Would you pay $13,000 for a pair of tickets?

The Zac Brown Band is heading out on "The Comeback Tour" with Special Guests Adam Doleac and Ashland Craft. This live performance is happening on October 3rd at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center.

A few weeks ago I wrote how to survive a Phish concert. After the shows were over I did not see any figures on how many arrests, drug OD ect. Well in todays Times Union they gave the breakdown…. "Phish's early July concert stand at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center ended with one woman dead and 26 arrests, mostly for drug charges, Saratoga police said...

Phish is in town tonight for the first of three shows at SPAC. Let's hope no one ODs and let's keep the arrests to under 20 people. Here are some tips for surviving a Phish show: 1-Don't share a joint from some dude who passes it unless you don't care that horse tranqs may be part of the deal...

Here we go. Another great summer of shows at SPAC. Ah, the drunken memories, lame attempts to sneak in, or just listening outside because we couldn't afford tickets.
