Hang on to your tie-dye!  Dead & Company is coming to town, and the Fox Theatre is throwing one hell of a party.  Grateful Web is thrilled to present, a three-day “Phantasmagorical Celebration” filled with Dead pre and after parties, July 12th—14th.  So, let’s paint our faces, don our fuzzy top hats and bizarre attire, and grab our luminescent rings and lighted balloons, because things are going to be hallucinated on the hill with visual delights as Bould
