    Grateful Dead (not to be confused with Dead and Co)

    Would do anything to take that ride again.

    Nothing even comes close to what that was like.

    No two shows the same. Not even the songs played exactly the same with a different setlist everytime.

    Not a whole lot of bands come along that you are willing to travel and see every show of the tour. It used to be really fun to travel the country without maps and cell phones.

        Often wish death on people that have nothing to do with you? Particularly people who really did absolutely nothing negative to you?

        What kind of shit life do you have that you are glad a person who wanted nothing more than to play music is dead?

                  you really think he toured the world for decades, leaving a cloud of drugs in his wake at every stop, and no one got hurt?

                  nobody?

                  oh sure you probably only see the ‘upside’, the great music…ugh… one or two decent songs does not justify all that cult shit. and yeah, people who flock to and follow a psychedelic fueled jam band for decades are sad and probably became trumpers.

        Yeeees. Lennon on guitar and Waters on keys this last run. Took my 11 year old to that charlotte show, she rode the rail all night like a trooper (in dragon wings)
