You're only 18 and don't know any better. Stick to American Idol, keep listening to all that overproduced junk and people who only sound good in a studio. I guess to you it only matters if the voice and the artist is pretty and not the meaning of the song.

Wish they'd play this again. Best damned band out there today.

Love the breakdown at the end. Traditionally not my fave Dead tune, but I feel the energy in it and it's so nice to hear somebody wringing some cool stuff out of it. Oh, wait, the ending kind of stinks. :) Oh, well, Jerry used to forget the words and we're all still here, except for him, which also stinks. God bless the Grateful Dead, and Railroad Earth, and us every one.

Love it! The legacy lives on.

These guys are great but I must lend my personal thanks to atom dragon the self proclaimed sage of all musical wisdom. the person who tells all who and what to watch as well as how to think. must have gotten his/her fine art degree either at Berkley School of music or Juliard. Most of us really appreciate your wisdom spilling all over everyone's nice comments. Peace. by the way "judge not lest ye be judged." (metallica and some other book you've probably never heard of) :-)

@darthsader1 If you really love the grateful dead you would know the meanings behind Robert Hunter's (or Barlow) lyrics are just as deep as the emotion Jerry puts into playing.

I hear where you're comming from but the meaning behind a dead song is what makes it timeless for all ages to come

WE LOVE YOU ALL AGES AND ALL PEACE AND LOVE WE LOVE YOU ALWAYS!

Sorry AtomicDragon71....

Get over your judgements. You watch IDOL or you wouldn't know so much about it. Me, maybe saw 1/2 episode once. Love music. Love people. Love all ages. Get over it. You can't say who can and will listen to what. Maybe you like tv commercials. I dont. I like music and people and harmony and love and unity and multi generations loving and dancing and living together. There is no generation gap, never was, all a lie, propaganda...Just play the music and LOVE!
