This past Sunday, Bob Weir brought his Campfire Tour to the famed Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY. For those who couldn't be there in person, Nugs.TV live-streamed the event for free via YouTube and have left the video up for on-demand viewing.
Bob performed new material from his recently released album, Blue Mountain, and select cuts from the vast Grateful Dead repertoire. The Dead originals included "One More Saturday Night," "West L.A. Fadeaway," "Eyes of the World," "Uncle John's Band," and "Brokedown Palace," and the familiar cover songs were "Dark Hollow," "Mama Tried," "Morning Dew," and "Not Fade Away."
For most of the show, Bob was joined by members of The National, Steve Kimock, and Jon Shaw. During the encore break, concert promoter Peter Shapiro presented Bob with a cowboy hat and a birthday cake. I was at the previous night's show, which took place at the beautiful Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, and it was a special night of music and friends that I'm sure many will remember for a long time.
Blue Mountain is currently available on Amazon. You can also stream the full album and read our review here on Zumic.
Weir will wrap up his current tour this Wednesday at the Ryman Auditorium. For more music, news, and tour information about Bob Weir, check out his Zumic artist page.
