50 Days of the Grateful Dead: Dire Wolf

Day 23 – Dire Wolf

Grateful Dead play a sweet version of Dire Wolf on April 16, 1978 in West Virginia.

To commemorate and celebrate the 50 year musical legacy of the Grateful Dead, an iconic American band and California favorite, we bring you “50 Days of The Dead”.

We are curating a list of fan favorites around the country from among the thousands of shows featuring the Grateful Dead, The Jerry Garcia Band along with a few surprises from artists who faithfully continue to carry on the spirit of the Dead.

Every Deadhead has their own favorite list of performances from thousands of shows. We’ll be touching upon just 50 picks culled over 50 years from fans who enjoy sharing the music.

We hope you enjoy this trip celebrating “50 Days of the Dead” with us.
