This Billy and the Kids show was a fun mix of Grateful Dead classics, and some fun covers, including some surprises, like The Cars Let The Good Times Roll and Harry Styles Sunflower, Vol.6. Guest Molly Tuttle got to sing several songs, such a treat, and she joined the band for much of the first set on acoustic guitar, and all of the second set on electric.
A big highlight was James Casey’s vocals on the Bob Dylan song Forever Young.
This is the 1st performance from Billy and The Kids in 2023. With the sudden announcement that Bill K is not part of Dead & Company’s “Final Tour” there is lots of rumor about more shows from this line-up, and Billy hinted as such in the interview footage (above).
