Bob Weir was a busy man at the 2017 edition of LOCKN’ Festival. In addition to his special Terrapin Station 40th anniversary set with Phil Lesh & The Terrapin Family Band and various special guest spots, Weir joined The Avett Brothers for the second half of their Sunday evening headlining performance. The Avett Brothers and the founding Grateful Dead guitarist were already not strangers to playing together, having collaborated on several occasions over the years.

Weir first appeared during their set for Jerry Garcia/Robert Hunter original “Mission In The Rain” followed by an Avett Brothers’ original, “Go To Sleep”. From there, the crew completed their set with a string of covers that the Dead were known to play, including George Jones’ “The Race Is On” and Merle Haggard’s “Mama Tried” ahead of their set-closing rendition of Bob Dylan’s “When I Paint My Masterpiece.” For their encore, the group first offered blues classic “I Know You Rider”, which is perhaps best known for the Grateful Dead’s version but can be traced back as far as the 1920’s in various early forms. Finally, Bob Weir and The Avett Brothers closed out their performance with an emphatic rendition of Bob Dylan/The Band classic, “I Shall Be Released.

Today, LOCKN’ has shared pro-shot footage of The Avett Brothers and Bob Weir’s show-closing “I Shall Be Released” from 2017. Check it out below:
