Legendary Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzmann have announced that his band Billy & The Kids will perform at Washington, DC’s 9:30 Club as a pre-party to celebrate the next night’s sold out Dear Jerry: Celebrating The Music Of Jerry Garcia at Merriweather Post Pavilion. The once-in-a-lifetime concert event honoring one of the most influential musicians and cultural icons of our time. The show will feature performances by: Mickey Hart, Kreutzmann’s Billy & the Kids, Bob Weir, Bruce Hornsby, Buddy Miller, David Grisman, Eric Church, Greensky Bluegrass, Jimmy Cliff, Jorma Kaukonen, Los Lobos, Moe., O.A.R., Railroad Earth, The Disco Biscuits, Trampled By Turtles, Widespread Panic, Yonder Mountain String Band and Communion featuring Phil Lesh, Stu Allen, Grahame Lesh, Ross James, Alex Koford, and Jason Crosby.
