[@nicolasaguilar1258]

He's fucking back baby

[@princebowie9950]

Sturgill on my 1st favorite GD song

[@llama40204]

Sturgill, Bob Weir, and Derek Trucks. This is everything!

[@TimCarrigan-hc4vq]

so much talent on that stage!!! thanks for sharing

[@MrAllegiant1]

That is no joke

[@forgiven21801]

Man that looks like a GOOD TIME!!!! I absolutely love everyone on that stage!!

[@slave2thetrafficlitefornow76]

[@chadb2448]

[@karynr77]

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍I'm having a moment right now, this is making my soul warm hearing STURGILL sing and play this.....ooooooh weeeeee, I love him....wouldn't it be something if he joins the Dead for awhile 😮❤❤❤❤

[@nicolasaguilar1258]

What an idea! I hope you were born on Cornell '77

[@TheMcFeelyRainbowExperiment]

Thank you so much for this!!!

[@XzXPatrickXzX]

Love to see Sturgill back, and DEAD! Huge fan of both. Would love to see Sturgill and Bobby do something together.

[@robertmyrick4233]

What an incredible jam!

[@krewjones]

Thank you sooo much for this

[@markalbrecht4361]

Great version! Love the transition.

[@johngrywalski1128]

This song isnt really supposed to sound like actual cats

[@jaredcoffindrums]

…or is it? 😂

[@laredosteve]

thanks for sharing...much appreciated!!!

[@ryanparmater4899]

good vox by Sturgill but goddamn without Trucks' rhythm playing this would have ground to a halt in about 2 minutes flat

[@doctorsteve9476]

I clicked away right after the 2 minute mark, even before reading your comment. wha happened @ 1:50 >>>

[@bigkw1568]

Dayum alot good sounds of that stage

[@lawyerboysk8er]

2 of my favorites; from a long time fan of each. Probably the best China Cat I ever heard!

[@kiddkidd2897]

😂

[@politiciansthrowstones]

Just like when i first started seeing music every show was the best. Lol eventually you get to best show off weekend then best set then best song. Main part is as long as you were there.

[@karynr77]

Definitely making thing happen un my soul, that's for sure❤

[@Er-q4x]

This is easily the worst China cat I’ve ever heard!

[@jaygoldsmith7454]

Wow!! Thanks again!!

[@wallysmith4518]

Ragged yes, but I was very happy to be dancing in that sand. Try it sometime 👍⚡️🍄🎉🔥

[@Drew-yk6eq]

He teased this for what felt like an hour in Chicago tonight and never ripped it. So sad

[@AndrewKemna]

Man soo sad i missed this. This once in a lifetime

[@joshuadaniel6747]

I hope they keep grooming Sturgill for this role in the band.

[@GrantRallis]

Why?

[@ScottC.-up1hj]

I don't think there's any grooming being done here @ all, justa buncha friend's jamming together... I certainly don't think this gentleman is gonna be playing in any upcoming incarnation of Grateful Dead... Still very cool to get to see the guy's up there playing & enjoying themselves w/ friend's & family...

[@andyclark7231]

My wife showed me this and I almost crapped my pants.

[@billtcheapbuiltcheap9568]

*Everyone likes the experiment until it doesn't produce their favorite outcome. *The electric kool-aid needs more sugar, or I cant enjoy the trip. Jokes. Thanks for sharing this unique video, I enjoyed it.

[@samscribner8633]

Bobby and Derek crushed that transition!

[@forrestmark805]

Derek and sturg killing it with Bob this was fuckin rad

[@edkaminski7969]

I’ve seen some negative comments from JM fans. My opinion after seeing hundreds of shows since 77 is that Dead and Co were hit or miss often in their first 2 years before getting really good. I bet Derek and Susan would be great with some more time as well. They are already good !

[@keitthane6246]

This is a dream wow!

[@mikeatl4953]

That was great!

[@armanddelduca1509]

wish I could have been there!

[@johnschmidt2799]

Would crush this tour so hard

[@danevett7389]

Love every musician on the stage, but have to admit that it was a terrible mess.

[@wwaldo2525]

Is this actually good?

[@Besokool]

I really don't think so. No offense to anyone here.

[@davidmartindell]

Yeah, it does very little for me

[@Grevart]

People talking shit about this need to get a life. I dig

[@GRUNZY]

Really...no one forcing any one to listen. Lol.

[@patrickluce7924]

Where is Otiel?

[@travissmith9451]

Otiel is out with Otiel and Friends featuring Steve Kimock.

[@jaydeboer7628]

Otiel was there - he played the previous and the next night, swapping out with Don Was, while he and Lamar Williams Jr sneaked off and went swimming! They had a camera with them, and you can see it on his podcast “Comes a Time.” He said he had always wanted to do that.

[@michaelgibbons1982]

Came out limping then picked it up a bit --- still a little uninspiring overall to these ears

[@timothyvickery4017]

Bob weir is 76 years old still giving everything he has to the fans and it’s still not enough for some people smh

[@michaelgibbons1982]

My comment wasn't a personal attack on Bob@@timothyvickery4017

[@KevinDWeaver]

That's no Johnny. Dang. He was so fun. Miss him already.

[@shanelevesque999]

wheres oteil?

[@GRUNZY]

Oteillnand don wass took turns.

[@elb2698]

So glad I saw JRAD instead. Tho vocals are nice

[@Bepollard1]

He must have a teleprompter.

[@redbanismydaddy]

Imagine buying a vacation package to watch a studded crew completely implode on a Rider :( actually makes me appreciate ole Johnny cracking the whip and keeping the pace up to something danceable

[@bodhiheeren]

Well to me it looks like the crowd is happily bumping around. Strange if you can't dance to that Rider seems very danceable to me.

[@timothyvickery4017]

Mayer had years of practice and experience playing with Dead and Co., this is awesome for the limited amount of time they had to practice and learn how to mesh

[@andyinwards2119]

Missing that John boy energy

[@Besokool]

Oh man. You got that right. This just plunders without JM.

[@Besokool]

I told folks how much they would miss JM. Now they understand.

[@shanelevesque999]

no shit no one can replace him

[@GRUNZY]

Same with Jerry...but the wheel keeps turning and you cant stand still

This dood is way too country! He's ruining the music.

[@DudeAbides1969]

I see what you did there.​@@DougNelson-z1w

[@DD-bu1kg]

The worst China Cat ever. Even Stu can't save that crap.

[@kiddkidd2897]

Unfortunately all that talent in this really isn't that good. I know they have the ability to blow the doors off

[@joshuadaniel6747]

Yeah shit got wonky. I love Sturgill on vocals but something was mixed up in there.

[@rickcomm5857]

We should start referring to Bob as the Vet. Neutering Cats seem to be his thing.

[@bodhiheeren]

@@rickcomm5857 You just listening to stuff like this to make a negative comment about a legendary musician? Or perhaps you did not even bother to listen just felt the need to release some negativity?
