Was it ever here at all? Was it a dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago?
Well, as Bob Weir once sang “Dreams are lies…. it’s the dreaming that’s real”. Or in this case, the streaming is real, proof that it happened.
I had March 8th marked on my 2012 calendar, as “Casual Opening” – somewhere I had gotten word that that is when Phil was going to open the restaurant we new he purchased, the former Seafood Peddler, and the adjacent Palm Ballroom (soon to be the Grate Room.) And yet I never saw an announcement, and I clearly didn’t know that sometimes at Terrapin things would happen without much notice… from day 1!
I was invited to the Ashkenaz Berkeley that night to see Deadicated Maniacs (a David Nelson Band tribute band) – and then I noticed Jay Blakesberg tweeting pictures and setlist… from Terrapin Crossroads! Instantly TxR FOMO became a reality – something that would affect myself and many others over the next few years. In 1999 when I missed Phil at the Warfield with Trey, Paige and Kimock, I made myself a promise to make as many Phil Lesh & Friends shows as possible from that point on, I never wanted to miss this magic again! When the TxR FOMO hit that night in 2012, I realized I messed up, and recommitted myself to see Phil as much as a I could, and that very clearly meant I needed to be at Terrapin Crossroads ALL THE TIME!

The next day I was in line early to get a spot up front… and spent a fair portion of the next 9 years in line, on the rail, and listening to Phil Lesh and all of his wonderful friends, and when i could, making videos or streaming it out to all of you on Deadheadland. I moved to Marin a month later, and as they say, the rest is history… my history and Terrapin’s were very intertwined. Until the very end of that final Ripple played by Stu Allen and Mars Hotel…
I haven’t seen Phil in 6 months (when he sat in with Midnight North in September, the last time he himself was publicly at TxR) – though so looking forward to feeling his bass bomb my nervous system at Skull and Roses in April!
Anyway, the streaming is real…. While I missed the 1st night, my good friend Photographer Stuart Levine was there, and shot these videos, the 1st official unofficial videos from Terrapin Crossroads “Casual Opening” on March 8, 2012. Phil is joined by Grahame Lesh, Jeff Chimenti, Tim Bluhm, Jackie Greene, Nicki Bluhm, Jordan Levine, and the one and only, Ross MF James!
Billy Strings & Les Claypool join Bob Weir and Wolf Bros. at Sweetwater for Rob Lawson memorial benefit concert. Billy played on China/Rider, and also came out for the encore, “Tomorrow Never Knows“, along with Primus lead singer and bass player Les Claypool.
Rob Lawson was Bobby Weir’s longtime personal driver. Lost his brave battle with cancer last year, and this show was a tribute to his memory, and a benefit for his wife Maris and their son Little Robbie. Rob Lawson was a sweet kind man, and he was loved by many, and greatly missed. His family is part of our local community, (Maris is a close personal friend of Deadheadland), and it is wonderful to know they are being helped and taken care of by Bobby and the band. Love is real.
Bobby and the Wolf Brothers also played the previous night, as a benefit for longtime RatDog bass guitar player, Robin Sylvester, who is been in and out of hospital over the last couple years, and is in need of a kidney transplant. Robin is also a very sweet and kind gentleman, we’ve had the pleasure of his performances many times on Deadheadland. He is much beloved, and also happy to see the community turn out to offer support for him.
We shows being benefits were rather expensive, nearly double the price of the Wolf Bros last Sweetwater shows. Well the price was prohibitive for many, the shows were still sold out, primarily local heads, although many that traveled from across the country for the opportunity to see these performers in a small intimate venue. Bob Weir and Wolf brothers will be on tour in the weeks to come, beginning with the Ryman Theatre in Nashville on March 9th, 2022. More information on https://bobweir.net/
