Deadheads Report for Duty: Dark Star Orchestra Touring South


Dark Star Orchestra, the excellent Grateful Dead tribute band, is coming south this winter.

If you like the Dead and you've never been to a Dark Star show, festgrrl highly recommends it! Sometimes, Dark Star plays a whole Dead concert setlist from a day in Grateful Dead history. Sometimes they hand-pick Dead songs to make their own setlist. But they don't play the same setlist twice, so the show is always a nice surprise.

Here are the dates:

Feb 12 - Cannery, Nashville, TN
Feb. 14 - Fillmore, Charlotte, N.C.
Feb. 15- Orange Peel, Asheville, N.C.
Feb. 16 - Variety Playhouse, Atlanta
Feb. 18- Iron City, Birmingham. Ala.
Feb. 20- Music Farm, Charleston, S.C.
Feb. 21- Plaza Live, Orlando, Fl
Feb. 22 - Jannus Live, St. Petersburg, Fl
Feb. 23 - Ponte Vedra Concert Hall, Jacksonville, Fl
Feb. 25 - Revolution Live Outdoors, Fort Lauderdale, Fl.

Then the band heads to Jamaica for Jam in the Sand -- a luxurious set of shows in Caribbean paradise.
