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/

The Chambers Brothers released “Funky” in 1971 and the song broke the Billboard Top 100 despite being deemed too risqué of a song for the time,” explains Moonalice vocalist Lester Chambers and legendary co-founder of the pioneering ‘60s psychedelic soul group The Chambers Brothers. “Now it is a new time and a new day, and we all need to get funky every now and then, especially in these crazy times. Moonalice delivers the song in a new, fun, and psychedelic soul jam kinda way. Everyone is lending something special to the song to make it unique and we are so excited for you to hear our latest song. We hope you get funky with us.”
And adds guitarist Barry Sless, “This is our arrangement of the Chambers Brothers classic. It features some funky grooving from Pete Sears and John Molo on bass and drums, a great synth solo from Jason Crosby, soulful harmonica playing by Lester Chambers, and lively backing vocals from the T-Sisters and Dylan Chambers. At 80 years old Lester is still showing us how to get funky!”
