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

This week the Golden Road returns to Harpur College in Binghamton, New York for a selection of Grateful Dead music from their May 2nd, 1970 concert. The Harpur College show is considered by many as the best Dead concert of all time. You can be the judge! Rounding out this week’s broadcast is the second half of the Dead’s May 1st, 1970 Alfred College acoustic set and a couple-three Kentucky Derby Day inspired songs to start the show.

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.
