And then there’s the music!!! Luckily it’s summer and you can dance barefoot. Because your dancing shoes would not survive this onslaught!

THE VERY JERRY BAND
Featuring Spiro Nicolopoulis, the Paper Crowns Band, and lots of special guests. Two Full sets of all of our very favorite Jerry candy to cap off a full day of dancing and celebration, with a lot of guest spots. This amazing band only plays together TWICE this year, so you really don’t want to miss this very special show!

PHUNCLE SAM
The Pioneers of the Asheville Dead scene who have been bringing us all together to share the love and the music for soooo long! You know they’re gonna bring a very special show for Jerry’s special day! Love you guys soooo much!!

DIRTY DEAD
Asheville’s own Garage Band Dead experience will rock our socks off with some early 70s Pigpen era Dead to shred our heads. These guys bring such a relentless jam and energy!

THE BALD MOUNTAIN BOYS
Our favorite hippie bluegrass jam band gets the festivities going at 4 sharp with some crisp renditions of all our favorite Old and In the Way tunes. Can’t think of anything I’d rather do on a beautiful Saturday afternoon down by the river!!

ALL THIS AND A FULL SHAKEDOWN VENDING SCENE!
Bring your hippie wares or come shopping for a new wardrobe! We’re taking over the entire field for our own Very Jerry Shakedown, complete with the Shakedown Acoustic Stage featuring some of our favorite neighbors playing some acoustic Dead during the set breaks. I bet Arjay will play a set…..

Contact Ter Spinner or Amanda Pendland for vending info.

TOTALLY KID FRIENDLY
Watch this space for confirmation, but we’re planning on building a super fun kid space complete with nappy time and late night snooze space for the little ones. And this show will be All Ages all day and all night! Kids under 12 years old are free!
