Bob Weir and Jeff Chimenti join Warren Haynes, and played some bonus songs after the orchestra left the stage!
The whole evening was beautiful, magical music. The arrangements of Conductor Sarah Hicks and the San Francisco Orchestra complimented what Warren and his band played, and took the music to a new place. A few amazing highlights musically were the Russian Lullaby And Uncle John’s Band, so beautifully rendered!
Of course when Bob Weir and Jeff Chimenti joined in we all went wild. Chimenti soared several beautiful solo’s, and Warren and Weir shared vocals back and forth on most of the songs. After the 1st encore, Conductor Sarah Hicks and the San Francisco Orchestra took a bow, and left the stage… Warren said since it was Jerry’s birthday they got permission to play a little later! We got some special bonus songs, musical love! Setlist below…
