The Warfield Theater was host to 21 Grateful Dead show, 88 Jerry Band shows and numerous nights of Dead side projects over the years. Come this May, Phil Lesh along with Friends will take up residency at the legendary venue for a five-night run – bringing their tally to 30 performances. The bass player seems to have something special up his sleeve as the message on his website reads “join us in celebrating 28 years of Grateful Dead history at the Warfield Theater”.
