OUR MASTER OF CEREMONIES, Mr. SAM CUTLER!
Our very special guest emcee, Sam Cutler, has worked with two of the largest grossing live artists in the world, The Rolling Stones & The Grateful Dead, and therefore been at the centre of some of the most exciting developments in the music industry.
He is best known as former tour manager for the Rolling Stones during the time when the band performed at the 1969 Altamont Free Concert. Throughout his rock and roll career, Cutler was responsible for organizing some of the largest rock and roll shows in history outside of Woodstock including the Rolling Stones in Hyde Park, the Dead’s participation in the 1970 Festival Express Tour of Canada, The Summer Jam at Watkins Glen (at 700,000+ paid admission the largest single paid admission event in rock and roll history), and the 1972 European Tour of the Grateful Dead, the musical results of which can be heard on the Dead’s triple live album “Europe ’72”.
Sam will be signing copies his new book: “You Can’t Always Get What You Want: My Life with the Rolling Stones, The Grateful Dead & Other Wonderful Reprobates”. An exhilarating, all-access rock memoir from someone who has seen and done it all, this telling recounts of his many experiences.
