The Grateful Dead being the best at who they were. Humble. Giving. Giving musical space. Etta's voice, the horns, the harmonica(Matthew Kelley?), and the band. It's not the best bit of Dead ever but imagine being there on New Years Eve and THIS happens. It's literally mind blowing. Love to my Sisters and Brothers.
