What are your favorite weird/awkward moments of the band playing live?

Dead and Company, LA, maybe 2019 or so? The band was playing Dark Star and for some reason Jeff started jamming a keyboard part that sounded like the melody to Carol of the Bells. Think the “ding fries are done” part if you were on the internet that long ago. John lit up and started harmonizing with him, so both are just full on playing Christmas tunes in the middle of Dark Star. Bobby then realized what was happening, became visibly furious, and ran across the stage to shut down the jam in its tracks. I’ve had a lot of different emotions at Dead shows but this was the only time I ever laughed like that. I’ll see if I can pin down what show it was and find a video.

Any other fun stories like this?
