Joe Russo's Almost Dead Started the Party a Night early. Full Audio, Setlist and 411

 

    J-RAD is the first band in my opinion that do not deserve the burden of Greatful Dead tribute band anywhere near their description. In Port Chester, New York at The Capital Theatre last night they added some more tunes that fall under the term"almost". Besides playing a Beatle and Ween song for the first time they had guests join them none more stunning that vocalist Alecia Chakour rendition of "Two Souls in a Communion".  Thanks to Jambase we have full audio and videos from nugs.net
