THE DEAD DO DISCO! Or do they? Molly Rainard (guitarist, Vampire Squids From Hell) joins the gang to navigate the Grateful Dead’s unsuccessful 1978 attempt to sell-out. Do real Deadheads even know that the band recorded studio albums? How many 60s bands tried to jump on the disco bandwagon? Does the general public know anything about the Dead’s music, or is the reputation solely predicated on the reputation of their fanbase?
