Good answer. Posted this before, but a girl I know/knew claims to have seen Jerry passed out under the boardwalk at Atlantic City... with a bottle of Anisette in his hand... and a bodyguard-type dude just hanging out next to him, looking nonchalant. And gotta say that Sara-to-go show is pretty great;

jerry-me,
you probably just don't comprehend noise well.
maybe silence such as discord between two rocks sounds to you like the sun turning on itself, or
maybe darkness lights your path, or extinguishes your vital flame.
probably, i'll just piss my pants and keep on trucking.. right home to my sweeeet girls.
do ya get it now?
see,
it is not clear,
tho opacity is enlightening.

That Was, a good answer Pate.
Jeremy you don't have to be so defensive, nobody is trying to make you be on the bus. Many otherwise reasonable people arent.If the music doesn't work for you, that's that. i'm sure there is some music in your own life that you'get' better than most of your friends, same deal.
You question is like asking what does a banana taste like.
Let it go.
Watching for that PM, Pate

It's not that we don't want to explain, it's just I don't think it can be done. If it works for you you don't have to task.
The rhythms, the songs, the guitar solos, the Lyrics, the drums, the second set experimentations, the jazz-like improvesational nature?
-does that help ? it's like trying to write a musical score in words...
"Sometimes we live no particular way but our own" says it as well as anything...

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds do a great version of Stagger Lee especially on video!
There is nothing to suddenly "get" about the Dead any more than there is about a Motherwell painting...You like...you don't like...do what you like, that's what you're like!?! Capice?
Variety is good, even if you only end up with one Smurfette!

Phil sez:
A funny thing happened to me on the way to the show...
I got picked up.
Tha-dump.
PS. Jeremy, what kinda of music do you like?
With the Dead, there's a certain attention that you have to give to appreciate it...At least that's what I've found.
My brother used to play them incessantly. I couldn't stand it, but I went to a show with him anyway (turned out to be Pig's last show...). I couldn't think straight for a week--and no, I was like 13 and totally straight for the show.
I have an idea. Check out this web page, and listed to the Hard to Handle...

So glad to see a Dead thread! When I hung out with my Bro and the some of the stonemaster's they ribbed me for liking the dead. As I recall, someone threw an 8 track of Dead out my car window as we sped down HWY 10 towards josh. Richard??? LOL!

One time in Camp 4 I was trying to interest Yabo in a spare pair of EB's I had, ( I needed gas money)
We sat down in my car to check 'em out, I had some live tape going.
"Here let me turn it down..."
"No, just turn it off..."
he didn't buy the shoes, either.

Thanks Peggy O!
Just one of many classic moments from "The Grateful Dead Movie.
Funny, when I was a grommet I dosed on the way to the video store to rent The Movie for the first time.
It took everything My friend and I took to get out of that store WITH the video. Funky night.
The Dead Movie set the standard for documenting a rock show, much less, the culture of heads. The way the sound is synched with the different cameras is still cool today.
And the animation! EVERYBODY remembers the animation!
Just a little reply to Jeremy who posted upthread about "not getting it".
Jeremy- you climb MUD, right?
THAT I just don't get. That's what makes climbing, music, art...the WORLD go 'round.
Same with OWs- which makes jaybro espescially demented...a widefetish deadhead. DUDE, issues!!!

Peggy, if I played that for my special ed kids over the years, I'd get the whole spectrum. Bunches of them would bob in their chairs, psyched for the input. Others would question my contemporaenity. Most of them would get a charge out of the fact that whatever it was, it moved me. it's rewarding to interact with others at this level.
Har! Deljefe!
and Joyeux (sp) Noel, all!

Show of hanz those that strolled past the Hotel Mars, BITD! I never went inside, ( Was Terry Gilliam involved in that animation?)
Youal realize we are alienating ourselves Further from Jeremy and others? Hopefully they can catch the next bus.....
