Deadheahds made their way to San Francisco over the weekend for Dead & Company’s three sold-out shows. The group celebrated the 60th anniversary of the Grateful Dead with the Golden Gate Park performances, and fans who didn’t get tickets for the concerts or missed the livestreams are in luck: The band’s concert audio is now streaming on Nugs.

Stream: Nugs
Concert Dates: Aug. 1 to 3, 2025
Billy Strings helped open the Friday evening show, with Sturgill “Johnny Blue Skies” Simpson joining for Saturday’s set, and Trey Anastasio Band opening the Aug. 3 concert on Sunday. The band also brought out the late Phil Lesh’s son Grahame to play “Box of Rain,” which you can watch in a clip, below.
“No matter how many shows we play as a band, I will always be a guest in this musical world, and I’ll never lose sight of what is the great honor of my life,” John Mayer wrote on Instagram following the San Francisco shows. “Happy 60th, Grateful Dead, and long may you run, @bobweir, @mickeyhart, and @billkreutzmann.”
Mayer continued: “It must be said… I’ll never come close to playing like @jerrygarcia. But if I can somehow get you closer to him — and to the spirit he created 60 years ago — then I suppose I’ve done my job. Thank you for accepting me.”
