Grateful Dead To Release Live Albums From Final 2015 Concert

David Gilmour's legendary Black Strat has reclaimed the title of the most expensive guitar ever sold, fetching an extraordinary $14.55 million at a Christie's auction in New York from the late Jim Irsay collection.

Bob Weir, guitarist, vocalist and founding member of The Grateful Dead, has died aged 78. His family confirmed that Weir passed peacefully on January 10, 2026, following complications from underlying lung issues. He had been diagnosed with cancer in mid-2025 and had successfully completed treatment.

September 8 has been a day of major turning points in music history, marking milestones for artists who changed the sound of popular culture. On this day, Elvis Presley made chart history in the UK, Pink Floyd released one of their most influential albums, and Metallica cemented their dominance of modern rock. It is also the birthday of Patsy Cline, Peter Sellers, and Aimee Mann, each leaving a unique legacy in their respective fields. While the world celebrates the births of legends, this date also marks the tragic loss of Avicii, one of electronic music’s brightest stars. September 8 is a reminder of both the highs and lows of the music world, etched across generations.

Since 2015, Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann, John Mayer and Bobby Weir, have been Dead and Company.

Bonnie Raitt and Francis Ford Coppola are among the recipients of this year's Kennedy Center Honors.

Bob Dylan and Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter has died at the age of 78 in California.

This Thursday August 1, Grateful Dead fans worldwide, including Australia, will be able to set the DeLorean for that date and go back and experience the concert.
