The Rhythm Devils w/Keller Williams have been killing in the last week with their new tour and lineup.  Doing a great mix of Dead classics, thier own songs, and songs from bandmates Keller Williams and Davey Knowles.  I have not heard a single bad comment, and everyone who has seen them has said that EVERYONE should see them!  The Rhythm Devils are playing at Gathering of the Vibes Saturday July 31 at 9-11pm on the Main Stage.

The Devils will be followed by Primus, with  Ratdog and Scaring the Children’s Jay Lane on drum.

In the course of  11 months, since Furthur debuted they have toured their asses off (and we have danced ours!) – reinventing the whole Dead experience for us, and each step going Furthur – from the expanded Furthur and Friends sets at Phil’s 70th, to the amazing album sets at Furthur Festival… and a stellar Summer Tour that included several festival stops.   After a short break, the band warms up for two nights at the Nokia in Times Square  – then the train goes to Bridgeport for Friday night at Gathering of the Vibes – playing two full sets from 9pm to 1 am!

So many others to see at Gathering of the Vibes!

Donna Jean Godcheaux!  Max Creek!  Dark Star Orchestra!
