"We just cleared the stench of patchouli out of San Francisco for the Dead & Company concerts and Jerry Day celebration that marked the 60th anniversary of the Grateful Dead. Yet the wharf rats down at Fisherman's Wharf's Pier 39 think that Bay Area Deadheads might still have some boogie left in their new speedway. As such, the Chronicle reports that there will be yet another Grateful Dead 60th anniversary celebration at Pier 39 on Saturday, September 6 from 12 - 7 pm,"
"First up they'll have the Minglewood Boys (1 pm), an SF-based Dead cover band. That's followed by the Sunshine Garcia Band (5 pm), who are not blood-related to Jerry Garcia, but are fronted by Sunshine Garcia Becker, who's played with Bobby and Phil in Furthur, and also with Melvin Seals and the Jerry Garcia Band. The official web page for this Grateful Dead party notes that there are a handful of Fisherman's Wharf bars and restaurants having drink specials throughout the day for the event."
Pier 39 in Fisherman's Wharf will host a Grateful Dead 60th anniversary celebration on Saturday, September 6 from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. The event will feature live jam and Dead cover bands, including the Minglewood Boys at 1 p.m. and the Sunshine Garcia Band at 5 p.m. Bars and restaurants along the Wharf will offer drink specials, with a portion of proceeds benefiting the Rex Foundation. The Wharf's Hard Rock Cafe will display Grateful Dead memorabilia such as Bill Kreutzmann's drum kit, a portrait of Jerry Garcia by Grace Slick, rare photographs, a handwritten set list, and ticket stubs. A free tie-dye station will allow attendees to make bandanas.
