Dead and Company, Fire on the Mountain 6/21/24 The Sphere Las Vegas

[@scupking]

The Sphere has changed concerts forever! It's such an amazing experience!!

[@capt.haddock5750]

I fully agree. Sadly enough, I live in The Netherlands. But these videos are fantastic.

[@drinkingpoolwater]

understatement of the century. the sphere is a real life acid trip.

[@SkiAlaska907]

We were there, from Alaska. The snowy mountain visuals looked like home... more fun than a frog in a glass of milk ;O) My first Dead shows were Solstice weekend, West High School Auditorium, Anchorage Alaska 1980.

[@billoleary55]

I played hockey there 1981 for Bloomfield. Chilkoot Charlie's! And the White Spot!

[@drinkingpoolwater]

Years from now we’ll realize how amazing this show was. Past present future

[@guilhermegarcia7490]

Man, I'm from Brazil. Love the Dead and I agree with you.. and it's sad they never came to my country.. but this shows at sphere are the most amazing thing I've ever seen

[@barrysmith3408]

Loved that they shared the verses! Go Mickey!

[@BillHiggins-m4d]

I was at that show. Went to all 3 that weekend. 133 34 and 35th time. Saw Jerry 73 times, definitely not ot the same vibe w out Jerry or Brent there.

[@dereksmith5540]

Omg taking some mushrooms. My brain would melt.

[@Nobluffbuff]

I was going to, and that was the plan, take a couple grams before the show... soooo glad that I didn't! On what would have been the best experience of my life, could have been the worst experience of my life, when security would have found my friend's concealed gun, which he thought would be no big issue. Fortunately, I was in a clear state and was able to deal with that fiasco. You will have the best time ever. It was so beautiful. Nobody's video of this on the inside can do it any justice to seeing it in person!

[@BillHiggins-m4d]

Mine did, all 3 shows that weekend

[@GlennJewett]

I was there, physically at least. Thanks for the work to get us such a good clip of a truly great night.

[@Bunbeck-pf9iw]

I haven’t been to any concerts just before Jerry left us because big Steve kicked me out because I made Jerry late to get back on stage but he didn’t want to go or leave me that’s y he locked the door ! This was at the end of the 80 s which they played better then they ever did ! We took care of them in whatever was needed ! Bobby loved my niece plus Jerry loved me ! He died of a broken heart ! That Debra coons was a bad girl but he did have a daughter with her + put her to art school in London ! Yet she got what was left 5 million dollars + mountain girl got 1*5000 million or one + half million !

[@guilhermegarcia7490]

I wish I was there. HUGS FROM BRAZIL!

[@MikeD-f3o]

I was at this show this night. It was incredible. Thanks for posting a vid!

[@SkiAlaska907]

hi Mike! we too!! fantastic shows! my first Dead shows were Solstice weekend, West High School Auditorium, Anchorage Alaska 1980. Our Solstice Sphere shows - with my 22 yo Jerry guitar channeling deadhead son were just brilliant ;O) I saw Jerry and my kid wasn't alive to see and hear him - so the heck with the haters. Oh man that was so great

[@MikeD-f3o]

[@markledbetter5799]

I was there with my GF and you actually catch the two of us for just a brief second. So happy to find this video. What a show!

Micky just does great with this song ! I’ve never heard him sing before , I love it ! ❤️🐰🐇🌹☠️💀⚡️🎸🕊️🪽☝🏼🌎🙏🏻💙💜🩵

[@robotpizza]

Wish they would put out official videos that show the what the show is like. They could stream it as it's going live or sell it later on. Would love to see this entire show, but can't make it out there. Would loved to have seen other bands that have played there too.

[@djbobstar]

Nice, Thanks for Posting! Bringing me right back to last week being there....

Thank you so much for posting this! Just fyi it’s from the night of the 21st (I was there my birthday and found this that night) such an amazing night

[@Brian-Midwest]

From those of us who couldn't be there especially... Thank You!!! Great post! ❤

[@Tio-Benny]

Happy birthday! And you know what I did!! I accidentally put all the dates a day up!! 🤦thanks for pointing that out!! 😂😂😂

[@ScottSigman_Londonship]

​@Tio-Benny I had done that, too, here and there, due to advance work curating the content and the ol copy paste to be expedient. It's always easy to correct.

We're going this Friday July 6th. Never been to the Sphere, so this will be awesome!

Not a single iris was visible that night

One of the best bands ever.

THE best band ever

Great cinematography for us armchair space cadets! 💀🌹⚡️✌️

[@Tio-Benny]

Thank you!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@williamswanson6424]

I saw them at the Sphere June 6-8 and it was incredible. The music, the sound and the video was like nothing I have ever experienced.

[@erik3911]

I hope i can stay young long enough to experience night clubs that are as advanced as this

[@drinkingpoolwater]

they have sports bars like this in texas where it feels like youre at the game.

[@Bunbeck-pf9iw]

This is all very new to me at this new place in Vegas ! I love it because I was worried that they weren’t getting back together so I’m very happy about it ! ❤️🐰🐇🌹😂🤣💀☠️🌟🪽🕊️⚡️😘😍🥰☮️👻Jerry’s ghost ! ❤

[@akline99]

This was an epic show!!!!!

[@luckyluque7]

I was on other side, the part when the bears walked across the mountains was super trippy

[@firstnamelastname5369]

Cant believe i never knew about the rapping before today. Still unsure about it. But 7 consecutive replays later and im still watching 😂

[@robertwegh877]

Great camerawork. Felt like I was there

[@BrianKing-o3d]

Wish I was there with a sheet of scrubby bubbles 🎉

[@BrianKing-o3d]

Or at least some dancing bears

[@BrianKing-o3d]

Perhaps some Cali sunshine or liquid 25 or purple pyramids

I caught Mickey rapping this in May and loved it. Oomph vegas but I want more sphere!!

[@hippydippy]

My god I can't even start to imagine what that must have been like, especially already tripping. WOW!

[@cajunfid]

I wonder how many people in the audience were on acid lol

[@fernandoescobedo9201]

At least most 😮

Literally tripping, sober. I mean that's if you go sober

[@jackdepalma]

Campbell and Sharp's version collected only a single verse: Lord, I married me a wife, She gave me trouble all my life, Made me work in the cold rain and snow. Rain and snow, rain and snow, Made me work in the cold rain and snow.

Get up on dance floor what you waiting for 🎉

[@schmactor]

Seriously, how did anyone in the audience keep it together while this was happening?

[@capt.haddock5750]

Bill Kreuzmann seems missing.

[@Tio-Benny]

I have heard it is issues between him and Mayer. Mayer wanted him to turn his drums down and Billy wasn’t having that from what I understand…

[@mattdalton5694]

the game done changed 🔥

Indeed it has!! The Evolution of the concert experience has definitely been redefined by the folks who put this digital bubble in the desert..

[@broderickwilliams3635]

Wassup with the rapping?

[@charliechan578]

Good Lord listen carefully to the guy just running his mouth the whole fucking time. I have no idea why these people think someone wants to listen to them instead of the band they paid $300 and lodging and travel for. I wish they had a section for people who just wanted to listen to the music and enjoy it and people who wanna run their mouth the whole time.

[@petera9374]

Mickey rap? Are you kidding me???

[@CowboyNeil]

The original fire on the mountain on rolling thunder in 71 was Mickey rapping….

[@Damien-l4w]

This is the first version of Fire ever recorded. Do your research

the rhythm just isn't "right"

There’s a good little jam during Fire, but I agree, something was up this weekend with the rhythm section.

with out the visuals this would of been fkd --- music wise Jerry's rolling in his grave , terrible version..

[@Damien-l4w]

That’s just totally your opinion man

[@robertlawrence5038]

the Sphere is amazing and Mayer is amazing on guitar. But the song is not that great. Its repetitive lyrics and weak vocals. Legendary as the Dead are they likely would not make it in today’s world of music. Maybe not a popular opinion with their life long fans but it’s reality.

[@goingvisually]

Please stop listening to music in general

[@emakelley6807]

This is my favorite song ever

[@Damien-l4w]

Ain’t no time to hate. Mosey on back to where you came from!

[@goingvisually]

You genuinely do not understand what makes music good or not if you think the Dead "would not make it today" in this world of dime a dozen cookie cutter crap. Robert Hunter would be revered as the greatest songwriter of them all were he being weighed against the morons writing songs today. Unfortunately for him he had to compete against the likes of Lennon, Taupin, and Carole King - and still holds his own

[@ddlyon100]

A lot of new alt-country/outlaw singers and bands remind me of the Dead, so I think they would have done just fine.
