Copperheads, Jerry Garcia.

We are in the middle of 9 days of Jerry. He was born August 1st and died August 9th. I pay extra respect during this time and remember many good times. I know there are plenty of Heads on here, so post up.

Also, this week there are probably big wall guys and gals dealing with small pieces of mashed up metal in granite. Discuss...

"Deal"
Words by Robert Hunter; music by Jerry Garcia
Copyright Ice Nine Publishing;

Since it cost a lot to win
and even more to lose
You and me bound to spend some time
wondring what to choose

Goes to show you don't ever know
Watch each card you play
and play it slow
Wait until your deal come round
Don't you let that deal go down

I been gambling here abouts
for ten good solid years
If I told you all that went down
it would burn off both your ears

It goes to show you don't ever know
Watch each card you play
and play it slow
Wait until your deal come round
Don't you let that deal go down

Since you poured the wine for me
and tightend up my shoes
I hate to leave you sittin there
composin lonesome blues

It goes to show you don't ever know
Watch each card you play
and play it slow
Wait until your deal come round
Don't you let that deal go down
Don't you let that deal go down, no
Don't you let your deal go down

Does the term "deadhead" have anything to do with the lack of brain function?

In fact it is just the opposite.

Deadhead = extraordinary brain function

I thought that "good head" referred to something else.

SEE That!

Peter's post proves that as far as the Atomic Broom goes, "DR did not act alone."

Like I keep tellin' ya, Jerry is behind me all the way. Anyone eavesdropping on my boom box below Temple Crag would have little doubt.

Like, HELLO... Dark Star. Get it?

The headline in the SF Chronicle announcing Jerry Garcia's death was a classic:

The Bus came by and I got on ,
that's when it all began,
There was Dr Ed,
as the Head,
of the Bus to never never land, (Vedauwoo)


any word on those Shirts, Dr El jef?

Got the Deacal, the other day Btw, Muchos Garcias!

I sported a '94 Chinese New year shirt (year of the Dawg) to the last wide Wednesday. My family took mom (then 70) to that concert. She loved it, bought a shirt, framed it and had Chasbro get her a concert tape...
