'I am gay'

freestylesupreme: i'm trying to be a gangster

freestylesupreme: is it working?

 
Also what are your favorite songs by bands that are similar to the Grateful Dead (ie. Phish, String Cheese Incident, OAR...etc...)? This thread can basically relate to anything related the Dead.

almost all of their songs

homophobia is gay

otto: there called fingers, but have u ever seen them fing. o wait, here they go

last time it was so cool, i was walking outside and the grass kept saying ouch as i walked on it, and then i looked up and pulled a star out of the sky with my hand and took it apart

-ski2824 on shrooms

 
dude the hell touch of gray is the worst song ever

1. help on the way/slipknot/franklins- off 1 from the vault...taped in 1977

2. Scarlet bagonias/fire on the mountain- 1983

3. ripple- reckoning

4. been all around this world-reckoning

5. crazy fingers- 6-14-77

touch of gray is awesome, I dunno what you mean, although now that I think about it I would say that it is not in my top 5. Highway 61 with Bob Dylan is amazing though.

5/2/70 Harpur College, Binghamton, NY. such a sick show. so good acoustic friend of the Devil and Dire Wolf

Winterland in San Francisco, California on 12/29/77 a good favorite

 
The acoustic set is cool and all, but the electric set is sick! The Dancin' is great, but the highlight is the Viola Lee...no doubt the best version they ever played

 
This is a mad hard list to make, but:

1. St. Stephen

2. Golden Road

3. Fire On The Mountain

4. Scarlet Begonias

5. Till the Morning comes

the list goes on and on.

Did anyone see The Dead in concert last summer for their Wave That Flag tour?
