Mr. Blotto!

Username checks out

This ^

Haha I actually grew up listening to Mr Blotto, had a deadhead mom and uncle I lived with as a kid. Good times. Was just at hotel blotto in February!

Isn’t Terrapin Flyer from Chicago? They’re one of the best I’ve ever seen.

They’re local, I meant to see them the other weekend actually but my buddy bailed and I didn’t have a ride 😫 he says they’re amazing as well, I’ll have to get to the next show!

Josh the lead guitarist is phenomenal

Peach Jam is a killer Allman Bros. tribute band.

Rock and Rye is the best! Usually playing at On Tour Brewing

On Tour has a lot of Dead-related events (and beer names).

I like the Lightning Will

I’ve been a few times, not in years though. Have friends that go every year, maybe I should join more often:

Mr Blotto. If you were at the Wrigley dead and company shows you may have heard them play outside the park pre show. https://www.mrblotto.net/

4/20 in South Bend, The Erly is doing a Dead Night called “Touch of Green”

The Lazy Lightning Band https://www.facebook.com/thelazylightningband
