Come celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Grateful Dead’s iconic June 17, 1991 concert from Giants Stadium, considered one of the greatest shows of the band’s final decade of performing. Presented here in its entirety, the performance finds the band in peak form, blending beloved classics like “Truckin’,” “Uncle John’s Band,” and “Dark Star” (teased throughout the evening before finally exploding into the full song) with various rarities, and culminating with The Band’s “The Weight,” a perfect song to send the crowd on its way. As a bonus, this extraordinary screening will also feature an exclusive sneak preview of the legendary “Shakedown Street” from the upcoming Merriweather 6/30/85 release, and a special introduction by Grateful Dead Legacy Manager and Audio archivist, David Lemieux.
