Surviving Grateful Dead members Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann, and friends (including Phish's Trey Anastasio) celebrated their 50th anniversary with five 'Fare Thee Well' shows. The first two were in California, and this past weekend they came to Chicago for three Soldier Field shows (July 3-5). We've got more pictures, audio, and more details over at BrooklynVegan. A couple pics from night 1 are above, and you can check out the setlists from all three nights below...
