Yes we do JERRY....................... VERY MUCH..... Jerry Garcia was born in San Francisco on 8-1-42 and left us on 8-9-95. I don't know how Jerry did it, but he managed to pull off something that nobody else did in the history of rock and roll. He helped make a freaking miracle happen. Keeping a rock and roll band going for 30 years is no easy task. Just the physical hassle of being on the road has done in many musicians much younger than Jerry. Somehow Jerry was able to keep everyone in the band happy and when tensions flared, he was able to resolve disputes. Somehow he was able to keep things together in spite of acid freakouts, police harassment, drug addiction problems, rowdy fans and money rip-off hassles, just to name a few. That in itself was a miracle.......... :cheers2:
If I had some bud, I'd definitely smoke for him. I'll just listen to a ton of Grateful Dead tomorrow. Kind of ironic, today I just up and decided to download 3 Dead albums + a '66 show at the Fillmore.
There were days and there were days and there were days between Summer flies and August dies<<<<<<<< ? the world grows dark and mean Comes the shimmer of the moon on black infested trees the singing man is at his song the holy on their knees the reckless are out wrecking the timid plead their pleas No one knows much more of this than anyone can see anyone can see There were days and there were days and there were days besides when phantom ships with phantom sails set to sea on phantom tides Comes the lightning of the sun on bright unfocused eyes the blue of yet another day a springtime wet with sighs a hopeful candle lingers in the land of lullabies where headless horsemen vanish with wild and lonely cries lonely cries There were days and there were days and there were days I know when all we ever wanted was to learn and love and grow Once we grew into our shoes we told them where to go walked halfway around the world on promise of the glow stood upon a mountain top walked barefoot in the snow gave the best we had to give how much we'll never know we'll never know There were days and there were days and there were days between polished like a golden bowl the finest ever seen Hearts of Summer held in trust still tender, young and green left on shelves collecting dust not knowing what they mean valentines of flesh and blood as soft as velveteen hoping love would not forsake the days that lie between lie between
I got a feeling and it won't go away, oh no Just one thing then I'll be ok I need a miracle every day.
Your life is constantly being celebrated by someone, somewhere! You spread the music; you spread the love, and now we're keepin it in motion!
same here.. listened to the dead all morning at work.. then i poured one out to Jerry this afternoon..
