Re: Grateful Dead Appreciation Thread

This is the thread I have been looking for. The Grateful Dead are the GREATEST band and musical influence to walk the Earth. I never got to see them with Jerry but I am blessed enough to have seen Bobby and Phil and Mickey more than 150 times throughout their different tours and I got to see them all get back together for Mardi Gras earlier this year.

I would have to say that some songs that stick in my mind (not necessarily favorites as I would call all of their songs my favorites) would be:
St. Stephen, Franklin's Tower, China Cat Sunflower, Terrapin Station, NFA, Sugar Magnolia, Scarlet Begonias, Ripple... I'll end up listing their entire history if I keep going. I love finding new shows that I haven't heard yet and jamming along with the band on my harmonica.

What else can I say? I love The Grateful Dead.

Always Grateful.

Re: Grateful Dead Appreciation Thread

Love the Dead.

The closest I ever got to a show was the parking lot of a show they played in Boston, in '93 (i think.. maybe '94). I wasn't able to get a ticket, but I did trip out on acid for the very first time that night.

Sources confirm that the surviving members of the Grateful Dead — guitarist Bob Weir, bassist Phil Lesh, and drummers Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann — are planning to tour in April and May of 2009. There’s no word yet on the band’s configuration — previous configurations of “The Dead” and The Other Ones have included singer-guitar hero Warren Haynes, guitar ace Jimmy Herring, singer-guitarist Susan Tedeschi, singer Joan Osborne, keyboardists Jeff Chimenti and Rob Baracco, as well as guitarists Mark Karan and Steve Kimock.

Re: Grateful Dead Appreciation Thread

Man as a kid my dad used to play Workingman's Dead on cassette when we would travel to go racing. To this day I still fucking love every song on that album.

Re: Grateful Dead Appreciation Thread

well i dont really care for the grateful dead so much. they just never turned me on in a music sense. However, I appreciate everything they stand for and the culture they helped inspire. Although, if someone puts them on I am always down.It is just not stuff I listen to by myself.

Re: Grateful Dead Appreciation Thread

Best band ever. Now we've got Bobby and Phil doing their own stuff, which is still awesome to see. Mickey too i guess, although I haven't checked that out. However rumors of a reunion tour in the spring.. lets all hope it happens!
