This latest, and celebrated, Grateful Dead spinoff band has been attracting fans — new and old, near and far — to Folsom Field on the University of Colorado Boulder campus, where they’ve played every year (barring the dark ages of COVID-19) since 2016

When it’s 90 degrees in Boulder, tie-dyed shirts crop up way more than fashionably tolerated and a heavy smell of the devil’s lettuce makes you wonder if you have a contact high from second-hand clouds of smoke, you can assume one thing: Dead & Company are in town.

“You can just tell they love it in Boulder,” O’Brien said, of Dead and Company’s tour schedule. “Why else would they put three stops on the tour?”Bob Weir sings as Mickey Hart plays the drums during the Dead & Company concert in 2018 at Folsom Field. O’Brien is traveling from Kansas City to see his hero take one final bow with Dead & Company. O’Brien said that this will be own his final bow with the Dead, too.

“We go to small Dead cover bands, we go to Grateful Dead festivals,” Palmer said. “We call ourselves millennial Deadheads now since we are way too young to have ever seen the original Grateful Dead.” Now the Palmers make enough money to travel the country full time, following all of their favorite musicians and seeing shows wherever they decide to park their van. In the three years since quitting their jobs, the Palmers have upwards of 100 shows under their belts — 13 of those seeing Dead and Company, 30 of those in Colorado and five of those in Boulder.

“I had this idea that the Dead was somehow creepy because, honestly, the skull logo scared me,” Lambert said.“A bunch of us ended up going to the concert,” Lambert said. “I remember seeing the Stealie up on the TV screen, and it was three-dimensional, and along with the music, I remember being swept up in the energy from the inside. I was very moved, and it was very fun. It was like this pagan adventure.

Now, Lambert tries to get as up close and personal with the band as she possibly can, soaking in all of the years she missed while her inner Deadhead slumbered.
