The Mickey Hart Band To Unveil New Line Up at the Fillmore in San Francisco, CA on June 30th

SAN FRANCISCO, CA– The Mickey Hart Band will be unveiling their new line up at the legendary Fillmore in San Francisco, CA on this Saturday June 30th.    The band is excited to welcome new singer and multi instrumentalist, Joe Bagale, who will share vocal duties with female powerhouse Crystal Monee Hall.  Bagale joins the current line up of Mickey Hart, Hall, Widespread Panic bassist Dave Schools, Grammy winning percussionist and Hart’s longtime band mate Sikiru Adepoju, drummer Ian “Inx” Herman, guitarist Gawain Matthews, and keyboardist/producer Ben Yonas.   Originally from Rochester, NY, Bagale has been performing with the San Francisco’s Jazz Mafia collective for the past five years.

The band congratulates past band member Tim Hockenberry on his recent success on the television show “America’s Got Talent” and wishes him the best of luck as he goes on to compete for the prize. 

Opening for the Mickey Hart Band at the Fillmore will be a brand new group coming out of the San Francisco’s Jazz Mafia collective, Adam Theis and SUBHARMONIC, who will be making their debut performance.  To catch the show, purchase tickets here.

Here is an amazing rare clip…. though it’s existence suggest that the whole show is available on video somewhere…

There were only two shows by The Valentines, this clip is from Japan, 8.27.1994

Greatest Story Ever Told
Queen Jane Approximately

THE VALENTINES (Japan):
Bob Weir (guitar, vocals)
Henry Kaiser (guitar)
Vince Welnick (keyboards, vocals)
Bobby Vega (bass)
Prairie Prince (drums)
Ray Woodbury (background vocals “One More Saturday Night”)
Bill Murray (background vocals “One More Saturday Night”)
Here is another song from that show:


2-02 Queen Jane Approximately by HKaiser2-02 Queen Jane Approximately by HKaiser (thanks Henry, for making this available!)

I would love to see/hear the rest of this show.  Bill Murray singing background on OMSN in Japan?!?  That needs to be seen, or it might be lost in translation!

UPDATE: One More Saturday Night w Bill Murray has been found!

Then, they played another show, appropriately on Valentines Day 1995.   This was a heart-breakingly sweet double set, and one I especially appreciated hearing… I was beginning the process of divorce, and the show came at a perfect time for me.  I had this one on cassette and listened religiously for years!   It included the (at that time) rare “Cream Puff War”, as well as “It’s a Man’s World” and “Ain’t That Peculiar” in the first set… The kicker for me was the 2nd set closer,  “It’s All Too Much” – Vince always did a great  job on The Beatles, and this one found it’s way into the Grateful Dead’s Spring 1995 songbook, as did the Al Greene hit “Take To The River”.  Well both songs meant a lot to me, especially with my marriage dissolving – and the personal profundity of IATM gave me chills.  A year earlier, during a molecularly enhanced Valentine outing with my not yet-ex, she sang that song on the beach to me, and we made a “psychic” request that the Dead, or Jerry band, put it into their repertoire… and then they did.  Ain’t THAT peculiar? Thank you Vince! And Bobby, Bobby, Prairie, Henry, and all the other, Valentines!

Bill Graham

I have lots of personal memories of Bill.  The first was in 1980, Prince was opening for the Stones at the Anaheim Stadium (or was it the L.A. Colesium?) and no one liked Prince then, in fact he irritated people with his fishnets and raunchy lyrics, and the unrully crowd started throwing bottles at Prince.  Once they left the stage, Bill Graham came out, chided the audience for being rude to a performer, and then when some kid in the front row gave him the finger, Bill had him pulled up on stage, and then said “hey. you thing you are a big shot?, you are out of here asshole!” and then had the kid thrown out in front of the whole crowd!

Later, when I became a deadhead, i remember seeing Bill on his cart or bike, checking out the scene, asking people to put there beer away, and getting lots of hugs and free stickers from people.

Another time, at a Dead show in Arizona, Bill came to the aid of some vendors who were being abused by security (not his, the venues).  First he yelled at us for vending, when we “know the band has asked us not to!” and then he proceeded to get a kids shirts returned, and get the local goons to back off.  The next day was the best lot scene ever!

Of course there are the New Years entrances, and the other tales of generosity and of him being an asshole too.  Would our scene even exist if it were not for this combination of chutzpah and joy that was the man Bobby Weir nicknamed, Uncle Bobo.

What are your Bill Graham memories?
