Dark Star Orchestra

On November 29, 2006, Dark Star Orchestra brought their iconic sound to the Chameleon Club in Lancaster, a venue known for its vibrant live music scene. Around this time, they had just released their album 'Ready or Not' in 2005, which showcased their knack for reinterpreting Grateful Dead classics while infusing their own unique flavor. This recording captures them at a sweet spot in their career, where they were not only honoring the legacy of their influences but also solidifying their reputation as a formidable band in their own right. Interestingly, during this era, DSO frequently performed entire sets styled after specific Grateful Dead shows, blending nostalgia with innovative twists. The energy in the room must have been electric, as they tailored their performance to the audience's love for both the old and the new.
