Every time the Nipper Brothers take the stage, it's easy to see why they are one of the region's most highly regarded Grateful Dead tribute bands. All the praise about their luscious vocal harmonies is well deserved. They are able to take songs like 'Uncle John's Band' and 'High Time' to places that hardly anyone can achieve. They bring the fire with majorly cooking jams on classics like 'Althea,' 'Cumberland Blues' and 'Cassidy.' They even might drop a real 'Drumz>Space,' segued into a glorious reading of 'Terrapin Station.

BANGKOK — Thailand's caretaker government was set to host the foreign minister of Myanmar's ruling junta at informal regional peace talks on Sunday, but key Southeast Asian counterparts were staying away from the meeting that has drawn sharp criticism. Only Cambodia has so far officially confirmed it intended to attend the planned talks. Myanmar's generals have been barred for nearly two years from senior-level meetings of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) for failing to honor an agreement to start talks with opponents linked to the ousted civilian government that had been led by now-jailed Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi.
