I have just finished watching 'Festival Express' and it was great
It's the true story of a group of concerts that took place in Canada in 1970. A group of promoters got a group of bands together for a group of concerts and then they travelled from show to show via train.
There is footage from the concerts and the train as well as interviews from band members, promoters, press and fans.
The bands and artists include:
The Band
Delaney & Bonnie & Friends
The Flying Burrito Brothers
Grateful Dead
Buddy Guys Blues Band
Ian and Sylvia
Janis Joplin
and a few others...
There are interesting stories including a group of fans who are outraged at the $14 ticket price for the show and what happens when musicians run out of alcohol on the train
I managed to find it at my local library but it's worth renting just to see Jerry Garcia and Richard Manuel one more time
