Hung out all night and all the next day on the sidewalk outside Winterland to see this show. Perhaps the most ethereal of any Grateful Dead show I've been to. My first show was 5-6-78 (easy date to remember) in Vermont and they played Terrapin there, too.

Yea, most generations don't get a shaman of the scale we did. His music lives on but we stillfknmisshim! When Terrapin Station, the album, came out, it was so amazing I used it to do tests on a new type of active phonograph cartridge that contained its own preamp. I listened to it a hundred times on different cartridge/needle combinations.

Jerry & the Dead had the same effect on my life too...after my father suddenly died of a heart attack at home one night. A few years later when I heard "Live Dead" with "Death Don't Have No Mercy", I knew these guys weren't just some pop or rock band...that they were really talking about life, death and how we perceive and approach our existence. I was just a kid at the time, and they definitely gave me something to ponder along with music I found interesting. My dad was into jazz & I got it

There are bands and there are bands. This one is on a shelf of its own. Our backyard boys gone astral. I was very surprised a few summers ago when, standing 20' in front of Robert Plant at the Greek Theatre in Hollywood he said, "I haven't been here in years, since the days of the superbands, you know, like THE GRATEFUL DEAD." At which point I involuntarliy screamed JEEEEEERY! with my hands and forefingers shooting to the sky And Plant smiled as he continued on in his comments.

Jerry Garcia will be a source of inspiration long after we are dead. I was hooked at my 1st show, actually hooked when I received Workingman's Dead from my Grandfather known as "Pa"as a freshman in high school, 1985.As soon as "high" school was over I went straight to the boys. Sure hope they have a version of the Dead with those that have passed. It would be Jerry, John Kahn on Bass, Pig and Brent sharing some keyboards and Pig playin harp. Drummers? maybe Keith Moon? Bonzo? Wow, I wanna see!

Jerry turned himself onto heroine unless someone snuk it into his cigarette or iv, which I don't think is the case. We all make life decisions and Jerry liked to experiment with everything regardless of the lows it brings as well as the highs. It's all part of life, learning, and experience, and the ultimate lesson that nothing is inherently fullfilling here in this world except music.. which is beyond the body and beyond what you can put into the body. Love to Jerry!
