Phil Lesh and Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead sit in together with Midnight North in NYC!
Midnight North, fronted by Phil Lesh’s son Grahame Lesh, had a gig Wednesday night November 4th at SOBs (Sound of Brazil) in NYC, as part of a New York area run of shows for them. It was a good possibility that Phil Lesh would want to sit in with them this week – Phil is in town for 6 shows at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, 3 last weekend, a few days off, and then three more (11/5-11/7). Yesterday it was announced Phil would officially sit in with the band
Bob Weir is in town having just played two Madison Square Garden shows with Dead And Co. Weir had just played with Midnight North a few weeks back in San Francisco, and he had said to the band he had a lot of fun playing with them. DHL sources says he told them he’d try and catch them in NY!
Well surprise – Bob came with guitar in hand… a few songs into Midnight North’s set Bob Weir joined the band!
