Christmas came early to the Deadheads in Southern California when Melvin Seals (JGB), Oteil Burbridge (Dead & Company) and John Kadlacik (Further) performed at the Fox Theater in Pomona, CA on Sunday, December 16th. Billed as Merry Jerry Christmas, the three were joined by Ed Fletcher and Brad Rhodus (drummers from Cubensis) as well as Helena Janusz and Lisa Malsberger (Jerry’s Middle Finger).
