Music programs are only online for two weeks after they are broadcast.

This week the Golden Road takes us to Oakland, California and the Oakland Auditorium for a mix of Grateful Dead music recorded live December 28th and 30th, 1979. When Brent Mydland joined the band in April 1979, he immediately injected new energy into the music and after six months of touring, the band was firing on all cylinders at these New Years shows!

About Wayne Hagen

Wayne is a founding member of the California Jug Band Association (CJBA) and a member of its Board of Directors. In 2002 Wayne and his banjo-playing buddy Andy began the International Jug Band Festival in Sutter Creek, California. The festival has given birth to new jug band festivals as far away as Louisville, Kentucky, as well as the CJBA.

Wayne has been playing jug since 1979 and he'll pull out his jug and play with anyone. He also tries to play the mandolin and is a big fan of Vol Stevens and Yank Rachell. His passion for jug band music has turned him into a walking encyclopedia of the genre. Go ahead, ask him a question -- we dare ya. He says that getting a chance to share his love for jug band music on KDRT is a great joy.
