Joe Russo’s Almost Dead Kicks Off Tour With Bust-Outs In Albany [Full-Show Audio]

169

Joe Russo’s Almost Dead kicked off their seven-date March tour on Friday night with a performance at the Palace Theatre in Albany, New York.

The five-piece used their two-set show to deliver unique interpretations of fan-favorite Grateful Dead covers, including the tenth-ever version of “Box Of Rain” and “Dupree’s Diamond Blues”, which was only played once previously at NYC’s Brooklyn Bowl on 3/8/18. In typical JRAD fashion, the band wove in surprise teases of John Coltrane, Michael Jackson, Bob Dylan, Guns N’ Roses, Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and more throughout their performance. For the encore slot, Joe Russo’s Almost Dead offered up their fifth-ever version of Warren Zevon‘s “Werewolves of London”.
