“Such a long, long time to be gone and a short time to be there.”

Goodbye, Phil. You gave us all so much 💚

Sad to hear of the passing of Sam Cutler, one of the finest managers the Grateful Dead ever worked with. Rest easy Sam, flying on the eternal Festival Express

Yeah, that is “Animal” playing over the Oscars red carpet @goosetheband

The actors they work their abdominals

We don’t need a Jerry Garcia movie. At all. His legacy has been the same since he died and nothing good can come of shifting it.

BOBBY: I gotta question, I gotta ask... Hey. Do you think I have a... deep voice? Kinda... husky? Well, anyway.

STAGE INTRO GUY: “Monday night, I didn’t know how to introduce the, uh, people up here ‘cause I never heard ‘em live. And last night I did, and tonight I know even better - this is the best fucking rock & roll band in the whole WORLD.”

BOBBY: “At your service.”

Hard to imagine Miles Davis’ “Agharta”/“Pangaea” were both played in the same day (afternoon/evening shows). Incredible energy throughout

@Mets @CitiField The only dogs I’ve seen this weekend are wearing pinstripes

11/7/71 JER: If you’re sitting at home next to your radio, you’re hearing the music faster than you are if you’re in the hall; that’s interesting, but true.

BOB: We won’t bore you with lengthy explanations of this phenomenon (FEEDBACK)

PHIL: I’d say that was about 432 cycles.

[Dead in Your Life @deadinyourlife]

Happy 50th birthday to Marvin Gaye’s legendary album “What’s Going On?”.

Still asking the question aren’t we

40 years. The gallant Bobby Sands. 💚

Happy 88th trip around the sun to the legendary Willie Nelson

[Dead in Your Life @deadinyourlife]

Lindor’s still showing up defensively. Like early ‘78 when Jerry had laryngitis and couldn’t sing, but he more than made up for it with his guitar.

‘78 Dead was like the ‘89 Mets. Definitely transitioning into a new era but plenty of spice left over from the glory days #LGM

4/2/73

BOBBY: You folks that are crushed into the front will be alarmed and dismayed to know that we just let loose a bushel of spiders - big fat tarantulas - up front here.

PHIL: And hot ssssssnakes!

[Dead in Your Life @deadinyourlife]

10/27/73 preshow

PHIL: “In the spirit of friendly cooperation, we’d like to request that you... refrain from throwing the Frisbees toward the stage because we’ve already lost, uh, 200 speakers this year, to Frisbees.”

JERRY: Well, it looks like the 70s are gonna be weird.

PHIL: All other forms of communication are permitted.
