The Dead West Coast Tour Concert Poster (2003) – Signed by Bill Kreutzmann, Mickey Hart, Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Rob Barraco, and Jimmy Herring
This original 2003 West Coast tour poster celebrates a historic run of shows by The Dead, the post-Grateful Dead supergroup led by original members Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Mickey Hart, and Bill Kreutzmann, alongside Rob Barraco and guitarist Jimmy Herring. Commemorating concerts held between September 18–21, 2003, in Irvine, CA, Mountain View, CA, and George, WA, this striking piece was created by renowned rock poster artist Gary Houston and measures 16.25 x 25.25 inches.
The poster is part of a numbered, limited-edition series, hand-signed by Gary Houston himself and autographed by the full 2003 lineup of The Dead. Houston, celebrated for his screen-printed works blending folk-art traditions with psychedelic influence, delivers a rich, detailed design that reflects both the improvisational spirit of the band and the natural beauty of the West Coast venues they played. His use of vibrant colors and textured linework makes this piece as visually powerful as the music it represents.
These shows marked a new chapter for The Dead, as the surviving core members reignited their legendary onstage chemistry and brought their iconic sound to a new generation of fans. With Herring’s virtuosic guitar playing and Barraco’s keyboard textures, the 2003 lineup was a fan favorite, blending the classic with the contemporary.
Only a limited number of these posters were produced, making signed editions by both the band and artist exceedingly rare. Whether you’re a Deadhead, a collector of tour posters, or an admirer of Gary Houston’s art, this poster is a museum-worthy piece of rock history, preserving the legacy of the Grateful Dead and the creative resurgence of its members in the 21st century.
