I like the idea of the GD, but was never a huge fan of the actual band. A good friend in college (I went to EMU) loved those guys and would sometimes travel around with them, and I respected that. On the night Jerry Garcia died, all the deadheads, my friend Art included, held a candlelight vigil at Frog Island. My buddy Rob and I were into far more aggressive music than that, but we went just for the hippy chicks lol.

I echo that sentiment. Jam bands in general never really appealed to me. I can tolerate Phish because I saw them come in and rule on a episode of SNL.

I'm a punker at heart, but I can do mellow music, just not the jammer type. I will say, the fanbase of The Dead speak about the shows like a religious experience. I don't even talk about the 1st Lollapalooza like that. Heart-on-the-sleeve me bought the Butthole Surfers shirt as a memento instead of the general Lala shirt which is Gen X platinum by now.

I recently read a quote from Paul McCartney (my favorite Beatle): He was asked what it was like to be in the greatest band ever & he replied, "I don't remember being the in Grateful Dead." :laugh:

Epic, hilarious & humble, gotta love Macca.

when 'Up In Here' came out in the late 90's I had no idea what he was saying (after numerous attempts, had to consult a friend who listened to rap/hip-hop/r&b). It was indecipherable, but it's actually listenable now & has made my 10k+ library of songs, an extreme rarity for it's genre.

The "Act a fool" line just sells it.

Salt in my eyes, stinging my brain
It's been forty odd days since we've been clean
Crawl in the cave looking for light
but the ceiling descends and still it's dark
Hey there, don't declare optimist it's clear you resist
I try all the time to get it right and still it persists
Touched that you think I'm a heartless old crank
and there's things that I've done to convict me of that
Try to look out eyes straight and fast
but I've struggled of late, my head in the past
Hey there, don't despair get in the cave
We live day and night to find the right sort of light
Bored of the truth I return to my youth
drinking Breaker at night in the cold Duchess light
Out by the fence there's a shout that I'm dead
Get me out of this place, I'll take casuals another day
All gates are locked, there's no way I can walk
and the paths that I took led me into the swamp
Even this trusty accomplice gets rusty
I'm not being cruel but your brain never ruled
I've seen the trauma of lives that were squandered
but I'm not to blame for showing restraint
Hey there, don't declare optimist
I try every night to get it right
And still
[Something just f***ing ran out behind me I swear to God
Probably a f***ing moth knowing you
Why don't you go back and see then?
Well naw]
No path of truth led me where I could walk
but the lies that I made led me out of the swamp

Woke from dreaming
But it took convincing
I was shaking screaming
I was still alive
And you were picking strangers by the side of roadways
Little little let the danger unfold
You can do what you do
If you think you'll take it
You can do what you do
If you are that way inclined
Suffer with silk
As the pressure's tighter
You have skin pale as milk
With the pressure on
My heart is getting heavy and my hands are weak now
Hatred lifting and I'll start to weep now
You can do what you do
If you think you'll take it
You can do what you do
If you are that way inclined
Just for a moment
Can we take a little time
Just stop for a moment
Can we make this moment mine
I've tried to let go but I've never had much to say
Take a day take them all now
Just for a moment
Can we take a little time
Just stop for a moment
Can we look inside this mind
We try to control but we never quite know what's there
We will kill if we need to...
Just for a moment
Can we take a little time
Just stop for a moment
Can we make this moment mine
I've tried to let go but I've never had much to say...

Tell me your confessions
Let me be the ears for all your sins
Let me take advantage of your whims
My life is no haven, have a feel
But it's just worth saving, craving
And you will feel appalled as you bare it all,
And I don't even know if I'll be listening
If I could stand it I'd let you believe what you choose
But how can I let you proceed when there's only one view?
Simple to state but don't dare implicate that I'm wrong
I'll dish the dirt and I'll show you the door
And if you keep coming I'll tell you to try a little, harder
Make a little sadder, all your tales
Just enough to feel good without scales
Fill my head with things I haven't done
The more the black the better, shelter
And you're my saving grace with your tragic case
Live a life, just make sure it's your own one
I left behind with no doubt in my mind I was gone
But ten years reflection and sudden affection comes on
Taken aback by the fact that I picked up the phone
Tried to convince you I'll be round one day
You're probably thinking just stay away
I've just been freewheeling
Been accused of stealing all your lines
But they're not there for speaking of foreign times
Just to keep the demons in their place
The innocence is needed
Plead my case

This was how I broke the best
Indifference, overblown with confidence and ignorance
It all made sense
And then I watched them take the test
I believe it's better to inflict than to attempt relief
You ask me what you need
Hate is all you need
Hate is all around find it in your heart in every waking sound
On your way to school, work or church you'll find that it's the only rule
Build a different world, hate will help you find what you've been looking for
Hate is everywhere, inside your mother's heart and you will find it there
You ask me what you need hate is all you need
This was how I won the west
Charity, a joke that friendly cities think that we believe
Or so it seems
We kicked and punched and stabbed to death
And everyone applauded my fine actions I was overcome
You ask me what I've seen
Hate is all I've seen
Hate is in the air
Come on people feel it like you just don't care
Everlasting hate feel it in the people where it's warm and great
Come on hate yourself everyone here does so just enjoy yourself
Hate is everywhere, look inside your heart and you will find it there
You ask me what I mean
Hate is all I mean

One last one.
bleak and beautiful

Lately days all seem the same since I lost my brain
Golden nights will see you through
Darker days need glue
How can I find what's right
In truth our love was the night
What's the point to you?

Goodbye wonder, Goodbye brain
This life is insane
No one here gets out alive
Not for life you'd like

How can I find what's right
The truth is our lives were shite
What's the point to you?
Come down, down, down
We have the only gack in town

Understand that it's here that I'm coming from
If I'm wrong or I'm right
Maybe soon we'll find peace in another one
Say goodnight

Eyes of black and lips of grey
When do I get my say?
Hard to come and easy go
Is the life I know

How can I find what's right
The truth is our lives were shite
What's the point to you?
Come down, down, down
We have the only gack in town

Understand that its here that I'm coming from
If I'm wrong or I'm right
Maybe soon we'll find peace in another one
Say Goodnight

Understand that its here that I'm coming from
I don't mind if you're right
Maybe now I'll find peace in another world
Andy goodnight

Well that's a blast from the past. Totally forgot about these guys. I liked this tune from them:

John with the scowl & the subtle bird.

Paul, mimicking/mocking John with the same sunglasses.

George, bored & unimpressed with fame/media, awaiting his next transcendental meditation session.

Ringo, cheers mate!
