Tonight the Golden Road takes us back to July 6th, 1987 for a very hot Grateful Dead show at the Pittsburgh Civic Arena. On this night, the band, as Jerry Garcia quipped, “We ran into some of our friends, the Neville Brothers” and they shared the stage with the Neville’s for a jumping second set, as we will hear tonight. And by the way, the Dead released their chart topping album In the Dark on this date as well. Did they play any songs from In the Dark that night? Of course not.
