Also includes keyboardist Bruce Hornsby who toured with the original Dead for a while, and Jeff Cheminti who I saw play with Les Claypool (from Primus) in a band called Oysterhead. Claypool is one of the best musicians I have ever seen and Cheminti is brilliant. That was a great show.
Trey has handled the job with style, grace and total respect. He has definitely recruited some more old timer heads that aren't easily swayed. Bruce is always a consummate professional and has honestly been the bands unsung hero these last 2 shows in Santa Clara. I hope for the pay-per-viewers sakes that the stream feed does a better job at picking up Bruce and Jeff's keys as they seemed kind of tuned down on the sound board. Cheminti deserves more solo time and I think he will get it in Chicago.
