Almost 30 years since the death of Jerry Garcia and disbandment of the Grateful Dead, the culture they created is bigger than ever. This documentary film explores why the Grateful Dead music, spirit, and legacy will "not fade away" anytime soon.

Bassist Phil Lesh and his band of "friends" -- Joan Osborne, John Scofield, Larry Campbell, Rob Barraco, John Molo and Greg Osby -- settle in for a two-day musical event at San Francisco's Warfield Theater. The selection of tunes includes "All Along the Watchtower," "Uncle John's Band," "Eyes of the World," "The Eleven" and "Slipknot," along with a candid discussion among Lesh, Scofield and Osby about the art of improvisation.
