0:00 Shakedown Street
10:43 Franklin's Tower

Grateful Shred opens their second set with an epic 21-minute combination of "Shakedown Street & Franklin's Tower," two Grateful Dead classics that create a perfect journey from funky groove to uplifting anthem. This powerful pairing showcases the band's ability to navigate the Dead's late-70s disco-influenced sound before seamlessly transitioning into one of their most beloved sing-along moments. The extended jamming between and within both songs demonstrates Grateful Shred's improvisational mastery.

"Shakedown Street," from the Dead's 1978 album, brings funk and R&B flavors with its syncopated rhythm and urban storytelling, while "Franklin's Tower" offers transcendent melodies and philosophical lyrics that have resonated with Deadheads since 1975. The transition at 10:43 showcases the band's skill in creating musical bridges that honor the Dead's tradition of flowing from one song to another. This performance captures everything that makes Grateful Shred essential—tight musicianship, adventurous improvisation, and deep respect for the source material.
