Ray Robertson and Nick Paumgarten in conversation
Featuring The Harpur College Drifters

Writers Ray Robertson, author of "All the Years Combine: The Grateful Dead in Fifty Shows," and Nick Paumgarten, a staff writer for The New Yorker, will discuss the bands most notable concerts including Harpur College, 5/2/1970. The Harpur College concert is where the Dead performed a legendary acoustic set featuring brand new music from WORKINGMANS DEAD and AMERICAN BEAUTY along with down home traditional tunes, straight from that “old, weird America”.
The second act will feature THE HARPUR COLLEGE DRIFTERS, a one time only gathering of stellar musicians including Dan Horne, Austin McCutchen, John Lee Shannon and Alex Koford of Grateful Shred along with Gabe Witcher, Leeann Skoda, Rob Stone and more to reimagine this famous show.
