After selling out on alumni presale alone, Dead & Company have officially expanded their Playing in the Sand event in Mexico to two weekends in 2022.
“We are so excited to announce that Playing In The Sand will expand to two separate event weekends next year!” reads an official announcement. “As always, each weekend consists of three Dead & Company shows over four nights. The new weekend of shows is Friday-Monday, January 7 – 10, 2022, added to the originally scheduled dates of Thursday-Sunday, January 13 – 16, 2022.”
Looking at the band’s schedule, these 2022 Mexico outings will act as their first shows post-pandemic.
In fact, the last time John Mayer, Bob Weir, Oteil Burbridge, Jeff Chimenti, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart took the stage together was the last Playing in the Sand in January 2020.

Objectively speaking
April 15, 2021 at 2:21 pmWhat this illustrates for me is how much the next musical generation (Post Dead) did not pick up the torch and carry it further and evolve into music that people want. For this level of interest in an embarrassing rendition of the “Dead” really proves it. Or, these people are just idiots with disposable cash. I guess it’s really a coin flip…

April 18, 2021 at 7:24 pmThey had it, then blew it. Furthur was exactly that musically but did not sell out to the Stadium masses. Phil & $happy dismantled the great band and more importantly, music experience for the FTW greed and wet Bobby’s appetite for more. And very few of us realize it except for me. Wake up white people…

April 15, 2021 at 12:26 amGood on them !
As every day we get closer to a Deadhead values future of mandatory vaccine passports , social credit scores and other totalitarian measures I will be reminiscing a few short years ago when Deadheads were fighting the man ! Oh those were the days when “my body my choice” was a Deadhead saying . Now it’s listen to the government and bow down to your master .
Most of the Boomer generation have been subverted into mandatory compliance I understand . Deadheads are not about individuals anymore , Deadheads are about big pharma , big government and endless wars !
It was a great ride but individuals are not allowed in Live Nation Global Government , I understand submission is easier than RESISTANCE ! Lol remember the RESISTANCE ? That’s another story
