If you're referencing the show a few months back at the Black Cat, then you're right. For what little it's worth, Liz Powell was suffering from a really bad cold and tried to power through it. I saw LoT/BL a few days later in Philly and she had to cut her set short because her throat was shot.

I've seen LoT several times and while I admit they're not visually engaging, I think Powell is a talented guitarist, singer, and writer. Of course, next to the Besnard Lakes, pretty much everyone pales in comparison. :)

Not as cool as TNV but exponentially cooler than Blitzen Trapper.

I saw them on NYE last year, just after John left.  I thought the new guy was really good.  Is the same guy still with them?  If so, I'd definitely recommend checking them out.

Jeff Matson  (aka the new guy)  from the Donna Jean band is officially the new fake Jerry guy.  I saw him  step in for a couple songs @ Penn's Peak shortly before John departed.  He's a monster guitar player. Seems like his forte is the bluesy, grittier style of the Dead repetoire.  As a matter of fact DSO just recently played a 1969 Dead for the first time.  The vocals do not sound as close to Jerry as John's did, but that's ok with me.  Personally can't wait to see them……Anyone seen John in Furthur?

Apparently TicketFly is doing 6th & I events now.  I assume you can still get tickets cheaper through their box office.  Saw this:

Sixth & I Presents

Helmet @ Sonar 10/22

Is John Stanier with them again?


Edit: just answered my own question.
No.

john in furthur was mouth dropping inspiring.  the three shows i saw, you could tell by the smiles on bobby's and phil's faces that they had struck gold.  plus the fact that the crowd was like all "yeah" when it was a bobby/phil/keyboardest song . . . and "FUCK YEAH" with overwhelming hoots and clapping howls when john's voice came through the mike.

Not sure if this was mentioned or not
