The run marks the culmination of what has been, by far, the most successful of the Grateful Dead offshoots. The group got its start in 2015, rising from the ashes of the Fare Thee Well concerts at Soldier Field in Chicago and Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara that celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Grateful Dead, and then went on to become an arena, amphitheater and, eventually, stadium touring force in its own right.
The three-night Oracle stand — in the hometown area of the Palo Alto-born Grateful Dead — is completely sold out. The band sold a staggering 120,000 tickets for the run, which continues through Sunday. Granted, that probably breaks down to 120,000 tickets sold to some 45,000 fans, the vast majority of whom will likely be attending multiple shows.
