In this edition of The Golden Road, your hosts Rod and Lee wave the flag wide & high in tribute to a loose handful of past New Year's Eve performances by the good ol' Grateful Dead. Also featured are some tunes we heard in 2016 music that stoked our respective musical fires!

And here's a visual about just how much splendor and pagentry (hah!)...well, really how much FUN a NYE with the band was:

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.

About Rodriguez

On the air at KDRT since February of 2007, Rod has hosted a true variety of music broadcasts. Beginning with the Grateful Dead based program, THE GOLDEN ROAD, then starting up a cool look at the sounds of Classic R & B, Soul, Funk and the Blues on THE GRAPEVINE, and now spinning a weekly 2 hour musical compass on SILVER NINE VOLT HEART, "Rodriguez" thoroughly enjoys the pure therapeutic effect that music has on his soul and right on down to his bones!

As the late, great Levon Helm once said: "If you pour some music on whatever's wrong, it'll sure help out!". Click on SILVER NINE VOLT HEART...live each Thursday on The Dirt from 4 to 6 pm for a good dose of musical healing.
