Fri, 12/22/2017 - 9:05pm | Lee Maddex

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 Coliseum Arena for a Grateful Dead New Year’s Eve with music recorded live December 31st, 1990 (well actually January 1st, 1991). Up this week is the second set from this very fine show. The set starting and ending Not Fade Away is a NFA sandwich filled with musical treats with a side of Branford Marsalis, who sits in on saxophone. There is some mighty fine music in the offing this week and is the last live broadcast of 2017.

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.
