An annual tradition, this year's Grateful Fest promises to be excellent weekend getaway anchored by the spirit of the Grateful Dead. This may not be the only Dead-related tribute event in Northeast Ohio this year (seriously, there are a whole bunch), but it's surely the most comprehensive. John Kadlecik, David Gans & Old Shoe, Terrapin Flyer, the Blurry Pickers, Dead Roses and Terrapin Moon will all perform, through Sunday. Wear flowers in your hair, and be sure to pack your sleeping bag. Tickets start at $20, and camping is included in the ticket price. (Eric Sandy)
