Last night marked the finale of Phil Lesh’s three-night stand at the Capitol Theatre. What started as a 76th birthday celebration quickly steamrolled into a monumental run, as Lesh welcomed “The Q” for the second and third nights of the stand. Comprised of Warren Haynes, Jimmy Herring, John Molo, and Rob Barraco, this is one of the longest standing lineups of Friends, and the group did not disappoint.

The band opened up the show with a tight jam that wound its way into “Dark Star.” Enjoy video of that below:

The set saw the group nice and loose, and they jammed out on a Grateful Dead classic, “New Speedway Boogie.”

Afterwards, the band broke out into a cover of Cream’s “Sunshine of Your Love,” which magically segued into “Broken Arrow.” What a combination!

“End of the Line” came up next, listen in below.

Finally they closed out the set by finishing “Dark Star,” and jamming into “I Know You Rider.” Set two was more of the same magic, opening with a soulful version of “Unbroken Chain.”

With jams on songs like “The Wheel,” “Cumberland Blues,” “Uncle John’s Band” and even a cover of Traffic’s “Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys,” this was one for the ages! The show ended with an encore of “Patchwork Quilt.” Check out the full setlist below:
