The off-shoot of the Grateful Dead kicked of their 17th an apparent final residency performances of 2025 on May 16 with a cover of Bob Dylan’s “When I Paint My Masterpiece,” a nod to the veteran 83-year-old singer-songwriter who is still on the road and was once touring partners with the Dead, who also served as his backing band in 1987.
Along with their own classics such as “Dark Star,” “Sugaree,” “Drums” and “Space,” the band also included in their set a cover of The Crickets’ “I Fought the Law,” a song famously covered by the Bobby Fuller Four and the Clash, in their set on May 16.

“The way that we thought of our music was kind of our communion ritual. So that we commune with each other for what we thought of as a group mind, and that brings the music about, and when we can transmit that to the audience, they send us energy back,” Lesh said on the recording. “That was the main reason we played music to get that commune going and a sense of community. What we were doing was just in the original sense of the word, which means to bind together. We’re trying to create a community of spirit with the music.”
