A Grateful Dead “Meet-up at the Movies” event will take place Aug. 8 and 10.
The Aug. 8 and 10 “Grateful Dead Meet-up at the Movies” will feature the band’s June 17, 1991 concert at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford. To see a list of participating theaters, visit meetupatthemovies.com.
The screenings will also include a preview of “Shakedown Street” from the upcoming Merriweather Post Pavilion (June 30, 1985) release, and an introduction by archivist David Lemieux.
The “Meet-up at the Movies” screenings began in 2011 and have taken place annually (with a few exceptions) since then.
Among Grateful Dead fans, the period of Aug. 1-9 is known as “The Days Between,” honoring the period between the day Jerry Garcia was born in 1942 (Aug. 1) and the day he died in 1995 (Aug. 9).
