Grateful Monday with Mike.  6:30 PM.  Every third Monday of the month, we will be playing a recording of an entire Grateful Dead concert and groovin’ on some of the best live music ever performed.  This month’s installment will be a show performed at Harpur College in Binghamton, NY back on 5/2/70. This is the soundboard recording that was used for Dick’s Picks Volume 8 with the Dead doing an acoustic first set and two electric sets. The performance exemplifies the breadth and depth of this extraordinary band; another Monday night to state the obvious: “There’s nothing like a Grateful Dead concert”!  Ironbark Brewing Company, 2610 Kibby Road, Jackson.
