#OldTime #Bluegrass #goodolegratefuldead

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
Auvers-sur-Oise in person.

Why is aWitkoff aligning with Putin?

It is because his crypto scheme is funded by Russia and North Korea.

Witkoff and trump are not patriots. They’re greedy fuckwads with no shame in selling out their country

Today I’m celebrating Jerry’s life at a bluegrass festival in France, and just came from a lecture on bluegrass that mentioned Jerry and the dead’s influence.

Because I had just moved I had no internet, no TV, and no community to mourn with. I had seen over 150 Deads shows + 25+ Jerry shows over the previous 16 years. And on that day 30 years ago I felt lost. /2

I had just moved to Ithaca, NY two days earlier (hhad been living in SF) to start graduate school. The morning of the 9th was spent meeting with faculty. When I got home early afternoon my ex told me that Jerry had passed. 1/

Jerry looked very worn out for that Highgate show.

I think ‘88 to ‘91 was the best run for me. That time between Jerry’s coma and Brent passing

Hard to say a favorite show.

I got to see them pull out Ripple in Landover MD…I guess it’s was ‘88.
