Man how I miss the parking lot party. I was high as a fooking kite on acid one night at the "Fabulous Forum" in LA and I heard someone call my name... two, then three times...
turns out that long haired hippy was an old Army buddy of mine, Mars.
It's sad this whole generation coming up has nothing like this... it was America's roving Woodstock for 20 years.
@LeeRyder Furthur still tours and I'm young and don't know what the scene was like back then and I do know since I've been hitting up every show I can, the crowd has degraded in personality, but there is certainly still a huge Dead following. They may be getting old, but they can play a killer show in heat that restricted me to my campsite until their set started.
I expected these guys to be punkier, cuz I've never heard them before, and my friend that likes thrash metal and punk music loves these guys...whatever, still good :)
I saw the Dead once in '92 and some hippie fiend sparayed me with a water bottle on the back my neck. I was a little annoyed but kind of forgot about it, until about 20 minutes later when I was out of my friggin gourd, on the ground seeing the craziest shit you could imagine with my mouth hanging to the ground and my eyes buggin out of my skull as big as watermellons. "Trippin Balls" was the expression we used to use.
@TheRailroadRadio - Yep, and when you listen to it, its really easy to imagine Motorhead doing it too. Maybe the song just happens to fit the same typical structure that Lemmy prefers, But I can definitely picture Lemmy singing these lyrics.
@drakepoo1 LOL thanks drakepool :). There's no doubt that there are other blacks who like it I just don't personally know any. Every now and then I am able to get my friends to try new types of music and they end up liking it.
@sturmraist50 What in the world are you talking about?? I never said that Caucasians were the problem of anything. If you would bother to read I said that I was the only black person "that I knew" who liked GD. Start some crap with someone else because I never said anything putting down other ethnicities, you did.
@TheKomikz I know a few, but I'm the only black chick I know who adores the band, and followed them around for a minute back in a former life. Who cares, though--we'll be a small group of mega-geniuses!
@TheKomikz In 1996, me and some friends went to a P-Funk concert in Cleveland (it was the 20th Anniversary of the Mothership tour) and we were the only white people there. Good music is good music. Who cares what anybody thinks.
I love this song! I sang it 12 times today already! I wish I could've lived through the dead though. Whenever I draw a Steal-Your-Face or a dancing bear all my friends are like "What??" ... I hate my generation with all it's crappy music forced down our throats and idiots who don't know what a Steal-Your-Face is... I wanna be with idiots who do know what it is!
You know the first time I heard this song I hated it because of it's pop feel. I felt that it didn't work because of all the country, blues, and psychedelic rock that GD had done before. But now I love it out of nowhere suddenly!!!!!
@1FirstRecon It was a joke you douchebag. 69 other people seemed to get it. If heaven is only filled with good things then I guess I won't be seeing you there.
@ThatKrookedVulture hell you mean kanye west hes a good artist and hes going to go down in history. if its just cause hes hip hop then you have to open up more
@rj689 I like hip hop and rap. I think Kanye West's music sucks. And as a person, Kanye West is a stupid (in the literal sense that he's an idiot), dispicable, egotistical douchebag. Every time he says something or tweets something the people that hear it or read it actually get dumber.
my brother took me to dead on the mountain in like 98 i think (i was 13) in wrightwood Ca and ohh lord didnt get to enjoy sid or shrooms but did huff enough nitrous to make me black out and fall down a hill.. anyways smoked strains from so cal to the netherlands and seen hippie chicks wit dreads in they arm pits ( btw sexy as fuk wanted to bone 'em ) ramblin my point is i was pissed just got into greatful dead and didnt see Jerry but i did see everyone else from greatful dead
Thanks for posting love this song makes me smile for some reason. Must point out though that even though "grey" can be spelled ether "grey" or "gray" the Grateful Dead used "grey" and i bet you'd get more views if you changed it. gotta love our mixed up crazy language.
