On Friday night, after Phish, head straight back to city and over to the Great American for the 7 Walkers Masquerade Party. Come as your favorite Grateful Dead lyric! If you haven't seen 7 Walkers yet, you MUST see them this time around. 7 Walkers features Bill Kreutzmann, Papa Mali, Matt Hubbard, & very special guest George Porter Jr. (*WIN Tickets*)
