I’d love to get a breakdown of Dead & Company’s "Morning Dew" from 7/2/23. This was, absolutely mind blowing and there is so much to unpack in this performance! How the band slowly, carefully builds the tension to a peak, then frees it was pure magic from the delicate opening to powerful climax. (9:08)

If it gets chosen, I’d be stoked to see how some of the techniques and nuances in this particular version could be used when applied to our own playing. Thanks for considering it.

Rock on,

My latest favourite band, goes well while driving. They don't have a lot of video content to choose from. Try this one or any other you can find. Highway 9 or The Gears is pretty good.

This is a live performance of the song "I Lied To You" written by Raphael Saadiq and Lundwig Göransson and performed by Miles Caton, Göransson, and Jayme Lawson. It's so hard to believe that Miles Caton is only 20 years old and learned to play the guitar for this role with the way he performs. I love that you can feel the unabashed joy Caton and Göransson feel performing and Lawson and the audience feels listening and singing along.

My personal opinion is that while this live performance is amazing, this song must be experienced by watching the movie, preferably while it's still in theaters. The movie's visuals and context add so much to the performance and is truly the best way to experience the intended message. The scene in the movie where this song is perfomed legitimately brought me to tears, it was that moving.
