Dead & Company are the latest band to scrap their summer tour plans due to COVID-19.
“The well-being and safety of the Deadhead community, venue workers and our touring family is of the utmost importance to us,” the band wrote in an official statement. “We also want to provide you, the fans who’ve been hit hard financially during this difficult time with your money back. All tickets will be fully refunded at point of purchase.”
Rumors of the cancellation started to swirl last week, when an official from the University of Colorado Boulder noted that Dead & Co.’s tour opener at Folsom Field was not happening as scheduled.
For a full list of tours and festival impacted by COVID-19 visit Relix.com/Coronavirus.
Read the band’s full statement and see their fomerly-planned tour dates below:
Due to the global coronavirus outbreak, and in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19, we sadly have no choice but to cancel the upcoming Dead & Company Summer 2020 Tour.
The well-being and safety of the Deadhead community, venue workers and our touring family is of the utmost importance to us. We also want to provide you, the fans who’ve been hit hard financially during this difficult time with your money back. All tickets will be fully refunded at point of purchase.
We are thankful for your love, your understanding and we look forward to the day when we can all be reunited. In the meantime, keep the faith and believe in the power of music.
We will return. We will get by. We will survive.

April 23, 2020 at 1:08 pmWhy do you give a shit about this band ? What bothers you about grown men doing what they enjoy ? They have an audience that loves them. Who loves you ? No one is ripped off that is willing to pay for a night that gives them pleasure. You can “ Just say no “ like Nancy told you.

April 23, 2020 at 11:52 amHOO–FUCKING–RAY!
Now we don’t have to trudge through newbies telling us how great Dead and Slo are….
Time to listen to the real deal, newbies……get out your old tapes….
Realize the best versions are right there in your home.
Die Dead and Slo, Die! You are a Creeping Death!

April 23, 2020 at 10:27 amJM is a douche for mocking Howard’s grammar in a thank you note to him. How dare you upset Howard in these trying times. Hopefully Dead & Slow will not reform after this nonsense. Bobby & Phil should play together with Furthur. Go back and listen to them, just blows away the nostalgia act of D&S.

April 22, 2020 at 3:41 pmGeorgia is open for business. Why can’t Dead & co park there for the summer ? They will be welcomed in with open arms and won’t have to move around. Carbon footprint would be small. Tickets would be less expensive. We can set it up in a huge field like a revival meeting. Call me 🤙

April 22, 2020 at 2:50 pmWell said Loose Lucy, but reading the (mostly) stupid comments written here day after day, I often wonder; would it really be a loss if the planet no longer supported human life?

April 22, 2020 at 3:39 pmThat’s the spirit attack someone who disagrees with you. Typical liberal move. Maybe try watching something other than cnn. Cal and NY mayor have praised Trump and his response! I can’t wait till next summer tour when I am traveling with dead and co and Trumps for 4 more years!
Jimmy Vincent
April 22, 2020 at 2:21 pmHopefully dead and co is done for good…

Hi Jams
April 22, 2020 at 2:19 pmOh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin’
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin’
I saw a white ladder all covered with water
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
And it’s a hard, and it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard
And it’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall.
– Bob Dylan (1962)

April 22, 2020 at 11:04 amThis has everything to do with politics, air, water and money. Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world. 🌎 👀

April 22, 2020 at 10:52 amWe will leave this place an empty stone. 🌎 Pull for the stable genius just on more time. Gonna make him shine. If the horse don’t pull you got to carry the load. One way or another. Futures here, this is it, we are on our own. The grass ain’t greener, the wine ain’t sweeter either side of the hill. Settle down easy. Nothing left to see. All this life was just a dream.

April 22, 2020 at 10:21 amYou really do need to just go fuck off now

April 25, 2020 at 9:50 amDonald Trump did not cause this virus brought to us by our “friends” in China. Donald is trying to protect the American public & has even closed his prise the economy which has gotten better under his term. Donald has done his best to protect the band as well as the Dead Heads.

April 21, 2020 at 11:44 pmBuddy, are you aware that no one in the US died last year. Your theatan merely departs the body to return to Venus in anticipation of is reprogramming and re-implantation into Zenu’s Great Deception. Rest easy Budd, you have nothing to fear!
AstralTraveler
April 22, 2020 at 2:30 pmWhew! I feel much better. I think I’ve chilled with Zenu in Deemster hyperspace before and been reprogrammed a few times. Keep up the good work Zenu!

April 25, 2020 at 9:43 amI have two tickets from ticket master for the Noblesville, Indiana show at the Rouff Homem Mortgage Music Theatre. Unfortunaty this Corona Virus brought to the word by China who is still trying to control it’s population has canceled the show I’ve been looking forward to see again. How do I get a refund for my tickets or will they be useful in 2021 at the same venue?
