I saw phil and friends at the last mt jam where warren and scofield played in the band. Four of us went to the show, one we picked up in Binghamton, a friend of a friend. He drank all day and didn't eat a thing. The three of us who had a clue paced ourselves. Half way thru the Phil set the little guy we picked up in Binghamton keels over. One minute hes standing there, the next he flat on his back. I know him as a Al from Binghamton. I'm thinking the guy drops dead next to me and I don't even know his name. A kind hearted freak nearby came to the rescue. He got some food and a sugary drink and he was revived. Turns out he had early onset diabetes.
The show was great and I would think I might go see this if Phil is playing, prolly the same cast of characters except Al from Binghamton who passed away this past year.
Moral of the story is if you are at an all day fest make sure you eat something and get all the names of your traveling companions.
New York’s Mountain Jam Music Festival has added Phil Lesh & Friends to its 2019 lineup, alongside previously announced headliners like Willie Nelson & Family, Gov’t Mule and The Avett Brothers. (Other new additions include Particle Kid, Little Days, Los Coast. Laura Stevenson, The Rock Academy & Ratboy Jr.)
Aligning with the festival’s renewed “Back to the Jam” ethos, the 2019 lineup showcases jam scene regulars like Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, Dispatch, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Twiddle, Amy Helm, The Allman Betts Band and Brandon “Taz” Niederauer.
Warren Haynes, who helped found the festival hasn’t played it since 2016, and returns this year as a presenter alongside Radio Woodstock.
Another Mountain Jam co-founder, Gary Chetkof, told the Poughkeepsie Journal that he thinks the festival’s new location at Bethel Woods “is like the Taj Mahal of sites. What could be more amazing than Bethel Woods and the home of the Woodstock festival? It was really just a matter of going to the promised land.”
Chetkof notes that moving away from the festival’s original home at Hunter Mountain was “very emotional” and also speaks on the new “Back to the Jam” booking approach, saying that the festival “just didn’t have the right balance” in the past couple of years. “We went a little too younger and a little too hipper than we should have. We learned a lot.”

If I were running a fest I wouldn't book Phil for 2 sets. Nothing worse than a Mtns of the Moon, Rosemary or some other bullshit when everyone is in full on party mode.
^^^ yup, 6 dates on the 8-10 date run of "blackbirds Outlaw Music Fest"...artists vary on shows, but, phil hitting maine, warrens mt jam at bethel, hartford, and 3 others (chicago, st. Louis and one other i think)....basic lineup for those shows w phil and friends is willie, allison krausse, phil, lukas nelson and promise of the real, danial radcliffe or is it nathanial? I always mix that up...and particle kid...
They announced the whole Outlaws run this morning. Starts in my backyard on Friday 6/14 so thats always nice. I'll check out the pre-sale tomorrow. No word on the costs or seating configuration so far.
Outllaw set wasn't pretty bad it was a very bad Set. Most disappointed I've ever been with a Lesh band With your family band I can have zero expectations But JFC opportunity lost. Crappy drummer Grade b lead guitarist picked up three days before the show and MF Jackie Greene really contributed to the shit fest. Crosby held his own. But that wasn't enough for Sure
^^^^^ It's very easy. Ross James, Grahame Lesh, and Alex Koford = TERRIBLE. Add the fact that Phil doesn't rehearse anymore and just wings it. And the lemmings just lap it up.
A friend tried telling me the exact same thing about deadco yesterday. “When John doesn’t sing and Bobby remembers all the words, they actually sound pretty good.”

Koford doesn't add much on drums, but he can keep time. GL has improved a lot and doesn't usually drag things down.
RMFJ, however, should go back to working at the restaurant. No voice to speak of, and no chops or good tone on the six-string.
Switch in Ezra Lipp for Koford and Stu for Ross and you got a band.
