With all the amazing Grateful Dead related musical activity happening in the Bay Area,
it's very easy to feel buried by the big boys plying their skills to attract fans and dollars round here.
I remain undaunted by this reality because I am having too much fun jamming with my kid, who has turned into
a pretty strong lead guitarist by his own obsessive-compulsive tendencies. It's also a blast to jam with his pals who have mad skills and big ears!
That said - Pleased to inform VLZ that "Ted & Company." will be playing a couple of sets of GD / Jerry stuff on Saturday afternoon, August 18
at a fun little festival - at Camp Loma - high up in the Santa Cruz Mountains (near Loma Prieta - ground zero of the '89 quake.)
> The Hot Pants Hoe Down!
August 17-19, 2018 in the Santa Cruz Mountains
Included with your ticket:
CAMPING - Comfortable tent sites under the tall, shady redwoods and full bathrooms with hot water showers.

This sounds like a fun event, Ted. You'll be playing in 2 bands, right? Have a great time.
Interesting and weird poster. Good work on that, too.
