The Garcia Project!
The Garcia Project is the only nationally touring tribute that performs full, classic Jerry Garcia Band set lists from 1976-1995!
Not a Grateful Dead tribute, but a tribute to Jerry Garcia’s beloved other band, The Jerry Garcia Band, which toured in between Grateful Dead tours, and played original songs as well as great covers from many genres, including rock, Motown, gospel, bluegrass and more.
“The Garcia Project is a must-see for anyone who had the good fortune of seeing Jerry’s band live. I was lucky enough to share the JGB experience with Jerry, John Kahn, Maria Muldaur, Keith and Donna. Being on stage with Mik, Kat, Dan and the crew is the closest thing to the original. They are Jerry’s kindred spirits when it comes to making music. Even if you never saw JGB live, you can see and hear their spirit at a Garcia Project performance.”
– Buzz Buchanan, Drummer for The Jerry Garcia Band 1977-1978
Often called the “DSO of JGB” by fans, The Garcia Project’s performances are based on actual set lists performed by The Jerry Garcia Band. All of their performances are recreations of full classic Jerry Garcia Band shows from 1976 to 1995. For anyone that never had a chance to experience the Jerry Garcia Band or for fans that want to relive a classic show, The Garcia Project delivers.
The founding members of The Garcia Project got to see the Jerry Garcia Band live on tour for many years, and the sound and feelings are deeply embedded in them. With precise arrangements and the proper instrumentation and feel for the various eras, The Garcia Project faithfully channels and projects the feelings, emotions and music that propelled the Jerry Garcia Band and the fans through many years of musical bliss. It’s about family, soul searching, rejoicing, contemplating, celebrating, seeking truth and loving one another.
Praised by Dennis McNally, the press, and fans, The Garcia Project has been recreating classic Jerry Garcia Band set lists with stunning accuracy and detail across the country for the past 13 years.

Tin Foil Hat Comedy & Swarm Tank
Tin Foil Hat Comedy A Stand up comedy show including your favorite conspiracy theorists Sam Tripoli, Eddie Bravo, XG and more!
Sam Tripoli, the host of one of America’s most popular conspiracy themed podcasts “Tin Foil Hat”, is bringing his provocative world view to the stage in a special night of stand up comedy and far out theories.
Joined for this limited engagement by fellow status quo provocateur & Joe Rogan podcast regular Eddie Bravo, the dissenting duo will turn conventional thinking & historically accepted accounts on its’ collective ear.
You’re under the impression that man really walked on the moon? You’ve assumed all these years that the world was round? Sam and Eddie have a collection of entertaining observations on those widely held positions (and many others like them) that will start you laughing but leave you thinking.
Boasting a stand up career that spans three decades, including appearances on Comedy Central, Showtime, and Netflix, Sam Tripoli enjoys ongoing success as a comedian, actor, and podcaster. In addition to hosting weekly episodes of the wildly popular Tin Foil Hat and Punch Drunk Sports podcasts, Tripoli recently starred alongside the biggest names in comedy in the feature film “Dying Laughing.”
Perhaps best known for founding the 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu martial arts system, as well as his many appearances on the “Joe Rogan Experience”, Eddie Bravo is the definition of a Renaissance man. Known as an accomplished martial artist, musician, commentator, and viral philosopher, Bravo is a counter cultural dynamo who wows any crowd that gathers within the sound of his voice. His disciples and devotees travel long distances to listen to Bravo hold court on all things unbelievably yet undeniably curious.
Hear your favorite conspiracy theorists Sam Tripoli and Eddie Bravo (and friends) tackle your favorite conspiracy theories at “Tin Foil Hat Comedy Night”.
