Waynard has been touring up and down the East Coast for years, delighting Dead Heads and other listeners. He founded Dead-Zep with a rotating cast in 2018, and then ran into the pandemic. Now that things are a little healthier…it’s time for Dead-Zep to step out onstage. They not only flow from Zep to Dead and back again, they play Zep songs like the GD and Dead songs the way Zep would…which makes for a fascinating, sometimes shocking evening. Hearing “Ramble On” suddenly dissolve into “St. Stephen” can be amazing to the point of a slight and interesting sense of disorientation. It’s a wide, wide world.
