Saratoga

Dead & Company is an American jam band consisting of former Grateful Dead members Bob Weir (guitar), Mickey Hart (drums), and Bill Kreutzmann (drums), along with John Mayer (guitar), Oteil Burbridge (bass/drums), and Jeff Chimenti (keyboards). The band continues the strong live tradition of the Grateful Dead, creating unforgettable experiences at their shows, no two performances being alike.

Saratoga Springs, NY has long been notable for a number of things, among them: the natural mineral spas that gave the town its name and made it a highly desirable resort location; its horseracing track, which dates back to the Civil War and is, some say, the oldest continuously operated sporting venue in the country; and the Saratoga Performing Arts Center (or as it’s almost invariably referred to, SPAC), originally opened in the 1960s as a home to classical music and ballet, but which soon expanded its offerings to include just about every musical genre imaginable.
