Tune in, turn on, and keep the spirit of the Grateful Dead alive with "Tales from the Lot: A Grateful Dead Experiences" podcast.
Tales from the Lot - Grateful Dead Show Experiences is a podcast with a very simple goal. It allows Grateful Dead fans to share personal stories of their favorite shows that they attended. Few bands have ever had such passionate fans as the Grateful Dead. The band's fans, known as Deadheads, have kept the legacy of the band alive and well. The Dead performed from 1965 to 1995, breaking up after bandleader Jerry Garcia's death.
The podcast host is Will, who chooses not to use only his last name for this podcast. He has been a longtime fan of the Grateful Dead. He is also a fan of the band's most current iteration, Dead & Company. One of the things that made the Grateful Dead so memorable, as Will explains in his podcast, was their live shows. While successful as a recording act, their live shows propelled them into legends. In addition, the band allowed fans to record their shows. Because of that, fans can still hear recordings of most of the 2,300+ shows the band did. This has helped keep their music alive.
The Grateful Dead, likely the first ever "jam band," made extensive use of improvisation in their performances. As such, each version became a unique experience to behold. They also played different songs at each show, and didn't have a setlist planned beforehand. Fans would see the band two nights in a row and feel like they had been to two different concerts. These things helped establish the band's legacy. Tales from the Lot - Grateful Dead Show Experiences talks about what these shows were like.
New guests feature on each episode, recounting their personal Grateful Dead stories. For some of these fans, they had front-row seats to the show in question. For others, they were sitting in the parking lot. The one constant across these stories is that everyone had a great time. Tales from the Lot - Grateful Dead Show Experiences celebrates both the band and their fans. New episodes of the podcast premiere every other Wednesday.
