Grateful Dead In Telluride Summer 1987 Shirt: A Tribute to a Historic Concert

The Grateful Dead In Telluride Summer 1987 shirt is a tribute to an unforgettable event in both the history of the Grateful Dead and the town of Telluride. This unique piece of apparel commemorates the band’s iconic performance during the summer of 1987, a time when the Deadheads gathered in the scenic mountain town of Telluride, creating a memorable experience for everyone involved.

The design is a creative mock-up of the well-known photograph of Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch, reimagined with skeletons replacing the outlaws. This choice is deeply symbolic, as Butch Cassidy’s journey into infamy began in Telluride, where he robbed his first bank in 1889. The skeletal depiction resonates with the Grateful Dead’s themes of mortality and the transient nature of life, making it a fitting homage to both the band’s ethos and the historical context of Telluride.

Steve Johannsen, the artist behind this piece, is known for his powerful and evocative Rock Art. Growing up influenced by the vibrant art scene of the late 1960s, Johannsen has dedicated his life to creating images that capture the spirit of the era. His work often bridges the gap between personal expression and cultural homage, as seen in this design that combines elements of Western outlaw mythology with the psychedelic undertones of the Grateful Dead’s legacy.

For those who cherish the rich history of the Grateful Dead and the magical setting of Telluride, the Grateful Dead In Telluride Summer 1987 shirt serves as a tangible reminder of that special summer. Whether you’re a seasoned Deadhead or new to the scene, this shirt offers a piece of that experience.
