They are awful. They should have left it what it was and not ruin the good name of Grateful Dead. Maybe they aren't Grateful anymore, just Dead. I wouldn't use a free ticket to go see them.

And if any one is interested in hearing a version of Hard to Handle that will make you never want to hear the Crow's version (no disrespect), check out the version from 8/6/71. You will not be disappointed. http://stash.nugs.net/attics/frames.asp?page=/vault/show.asp&artist=1&show=268&cmd=shows @Ryan:

The show was a solid C-minus. Stay home, fire up, and throw on the Eugene, OR '78 show to clear your head.

Honestly, I think they would have fared better had they waited till summer to hit the road. That being said the recordings I've heard Charlottesville (4/15) and Wilkes-Barre (4/22) both sounded great. Szabe – I think some of the venue selections (Allstate included) are a little suspect.

By all accounts I've heard -- reading a few message boards and talking to a few friends -- they sound completely uninspired and unrehearsed; they look bored, and they've been spotted feuding on stage; most of the audience is sitting down, chatting, or texting for much of the show, because the music is so bad. I hope the AllState shows are great, but anyone who's thinking about going should be aware that, by many people's standards, they're risking shelling out $100 for a dud of a show. “By all accounts the band is hitting on all cylinders and getting along nicely with Warren Haynes on guitar/vocals.”
