About The Grateful Dead
Grateful Dead fans, known as Deadheads, followed the band from city to city for decades. The Grateful Dead formed in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1965 and became famous for long, improvised live shows. Concert posters are often the only surviving record of a particular line-up on a particular night. It was designed to promote a 1971 concert. In the 1970s, rock moved into arenas and its posters became bigger, bolder and more graphic. By the 1970s, concert promotion moved to arenas and stadiums, and posters advertised ever larger shows.
