Grateful Dead to bid faithful goodbye

TICKETS for a series of July farewell gigs in North America by US rockers Grateful Dead are already fetching around $US700 each.

THE four surviving members of the Grateful Dead are launching their farewell mini-tour in Northern California, where the legendary jam band got its start 50 years ago.

THE first of the Dead's five Fare Thee Well shows is scheduled to take place at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, not far from the pizzeria where a five-man blues-rock band called The Warlocks played its first gig in May 1965.
