RIP Bob Weir, one of the founders and original architects of The Grateful Dead. When the Dead would trip off into one of their dazzling live cosmic jams, lead singer Bobby was the ringmaster who knew when to grab everyone and guide them back down to earth. On his own solo music he upheld the Dead’s communal spirit and was always willing to share the spotlight with talented musicians. In recent years Weir fronted the post-Jerry Garcia/Phil Lesh version of the Dead and introduced the group’s music and vibe to new generations of Dead Heads. We’ll never forget when he performed on ACL TV in Season 28 with RatDog. Watch the full performance on our Youtube: youtube.com/watch?v=yNVmiK…

We’re deeply saddened to learn of the passing of music legend Joe Ely. To us here at Austin City Limits as well as far beyond our stage, Ely was recognized as an icon – a maverick, genre-agnostic songwriter who gave performances that alternated between touching our hearts and melting down our cameras. Ely first appeared on the show in Season 5 and went on to appear many more times through the years. “Joe Ely came out of West Texas like a rocket and shook the ACL stage like nobody before or since,” notes ACL executive producer Terry Lickona. “As far as we’re concerned, Joe was and will always be a superstar.” bit.ly/48RnlMJ
