Watkins in the Grove: A Celebration of the legendary 1973 Watkins Glen Concert
Garcia Birthday Band (Grateful Dead tribute)
One Way Out (Allman Brothers tribute)
Chest Fever (The Band tribute)
It ranks among the epic stories in rock festival history… In the summer of 1973, over 600,000 people descended on Watkins Glen Grand Prix Raceway for a record-decimating, once-in-a-lifetime performance featuring the Grateful Dead, the Allman Brothers and The Band. From the Dead’s two-hour long soundcheck-turned-jam-sesh to the miles of gridlock surrounding the venue to the epic group encore, it’s no wonder The Summer Jam at Watkins Glen is regarded as legend.
Join us as we celebrate this legendary concert from the golden age of jam bands with performances from Garcia Birthday Band (Grateful Dead tribute), One Way Out (Allman Brothers tribute) and Chest Fever (The Band tribute) featuring members of The Next Waltz.
