What a long strange trip it’s been...
Come join us on beautiful and funky Vashon Island, at the one and only Open Space, on July 3, 4 and 5 to celebrate, to dance, and to party one last time to the Grateful Dead. We’ve got a 20 foot projection screen, world class sound system, a huge open space to dance, food trucks, a beer garden -- everything but fireworks, calliopes and clowns. (Although on Ju
ly 4th there is a great firework show over Vashon’s Quartermaster Harbor). What's best for a Dead show? Lots of room to dance... lots of room for you and your friends to hang out... space outside to listen... space inside to watch... a friendly, easy family space. In addition to the live broadcasts we have a few other things planned as well:
Friday night, after the Dead concert, stay and enjoy the musical stylings of Rumor Has It – a fun local jam band. Saturday night after the show we figure head out on your own to Quartermaster Harbor to see the fireworks. Sunday afternoon, before the Dead, we will be serenaded by Vashon’s one and only Rock Island String Kollective – a group of musicians ranging from 8-80 jamming out to all the Mother McRee’s Uptown Jug Champions classics. More updates unveiled as we set plans and build dreams. Keep your eyes out for news about camping off-site, who our food vendors will be, and more. Whether you’ve seen 100 shows or this is your first one – this is the last hurrah so join us to celebrate what has been such a huge part of so many people’s lives in a place and style fitting for the occasion. Early bird tickets are half price - just $25 for a 3 day pass – and will go on sale FRIDAY, MAY 29. A limited number are available, so don't delay! We'll post the ticket link here as soon as it's live. See you on the dance floor..
