I have never been to a Dead show or on tour. I have never even smoked a bowl with 'family' before. And I have heard the Dead in interviews that they thought their studio work sucked. Its all about the live show and the gathering of people. ....I use to have a few taped live concerts when I was in high school... I have seen their live on Youtube of course and I love the Dead.

However, I love their studio work! I don't get too much alone time, but I was driving around paying bills tonight. Stoned off some awesome GSC and I put on my favorite Dead. All I have ever known was their studio work and I love it! I have been a fan of the dead based off of their studio work alone... I think it is amazing. Uncle Johns band has such amazing guitar work. The instrumentals and production is incredible. They sell themselves short saying their studio work was no good. Personally, I love it... not all of us can get on tour, ya dig? ....After a long day and you smoke a nice bowl ...there is nothing like "Touch of Grey", I don't care if that is the most mainstream song...it is awesome.

dig the dead in your own way man...I have met way to many "heads" that put you down or try and build up there ego about being at some show in 87 or how they no all these obscure recordings...

its the same as in babylon with those folks driving audi's...just building there ego

at the same time there are true heads you'll know em

while you may not have smoked a bowl with "family" at least you get to chat with fams

The deads alright.... I don't see what all the fuss is about honestly bongsmilie. I'd probably like them a lot more if I went to the shows back in the day. But the music is mediocre imo.

as far as pure connection to a song or music, no one comes quite as close as Syd Barret. I have become intertwined with Astronomy Domine on LSD... no other music has wrapped me into like Syds on LSD. Grateful Dead comes very close, but Syd Barret gets inside you and takes control.....

Too me that is why the Grateful Dead is so great... have you hear the Dead on LSD skuxx? otherwise your taking the music out of context.... you sure as fuck cant listen to pink floyds "See Emily Play" and have it make sense not on acid... or "The Gnome" ... the songs sound off if you have not heard them through LSD..... Once you hear the dead when you trip it is so amazing.... Wen I trip there is some radio music that makes me sick.. so overproduced and fake... i am anti pop.....

I was at that Superjam, they covered the Rolling Stones "Satisfaction" and it was fucking awesome, whole crowd was jumping. Wu Tang and Lettuce did a hip hop Superjam that was even better though the night before.

If you make it down to the Roo ever again I'll be there in the woods
