I heard my first Grateful Dead song three days ago. It blew my mind.

    that's a fair enough personal opinion, but too suggest that the only reason why the Grateful Dead had far greater success than Quicksilver did is because they played the acid tests is a pretty assinine statement.

    I plan on it soon. Once I get my program. But I think that request would have been better said in a PM then thrown into a discussion which has nothing to do with the mentioned.

    LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL, fucking funny man. Your really, really funny bro. You just considered Jerry fucking Garcia to be a beginner guitarist. Your incredible ignorant.

    I'd say it's got plenty to do with it. You're criticizing a musician, so why don't you show us what YOU can do?

    ??? Yes, he's criticizing a [overrated] musician, but not everyone goes around in his shirts, talking about how cool they are, and the like [scene]. Sorry, that was just a bad comeback. :]

    If I had the the right softwere to record I would have no problem doing it. But I don't see how my musical level would effect how good someone else is. Considering a lot of people who listen to music have opinons about music and don't play anything. And I'm only criticizing their hype. I already stated that I enjoy their music from time to time and think garcia is a good player just not a god type player.

    Yeah, I understand what you're getting at completely. I wasn't trying to make it into a big challenge sort of thing. Sorry if it was taken that way.

    It wasn't even supposed to be taken as a comeback. I don't understand why you're bringing up t-shirts and people talking about being cool either.

    Mabey because of his personality. He was a very cool person and I enjoy that about him.

    You either like Jerry Garcia's playing or you don't. I think his style just catches some people's ear and other people not so much.

    To me, its more than just his personality. Its the fact that on Jerry's worst night ever he still better then any other player. Its the fact that he sings every song with more emotion than any other singer. Its the fact that he was simply the greatest, and nobody will ever compare to him. Its the fact that Jerry & The Grateful Dead had something that nobody else had.
