Bob Weir was on hand to accept the Jammys' Lifetime Achievement Award on behalf of the Grateful Dead. Weir and his band Ratdog also performed, closing the festivities with "Lovelight," featuring an unbilled appearance by Anastasio, along with Warren Haynes, John Popper and others. The Allman Brothers Band also made a surprise appearance, joining Haynes and Gov't Mule (who won Song of the Year for "Soulshine") for "Desdemona." The Tom Tom Club along with the Dirty Dozen Brass Band served as the evening's house band.
