New Riders of the Purple Sage October 18, 2006

In the summer of 1969, John Dawson was looking to showcase his songs while Jerry Garcia was looking to practice his brand new pedal steel guitar. The two played in coffeehouses and small clubs initially, and the music they made became the nucleus for a band—the New Riders of the Purple Sage.

And then...37 years later, after many a twist and turn, they booked a gig at The Flying Anvil and all was good in the world. Come out and be a part of psychedelic cowboy history. Gigs like this don't grow on trees.

Admission: $18
