Need a smile on your face?

[pabster]

So I've been listening to the Grateful Dead a lot lately. Yeah, yeah, I know- I'm sure there's plenty of people on here who can't stand their music. But for those of you who are fans, or those who just need a smile, listen to this. At about 2:20 Jerry Garcia launches into a solo that give me chills. Great stuff.

Judging by the responses so far, it doesn't look like to many deadheads here.

I'm a fan....just not a fanatic.

I love the Dead and have been to many shows. Never made it to a NYE show but Chinese New Year shows at the Coliseum were fantastic. For those who can't appreciate the dead never saw them live. The sound system was the best in the biz. You had to be there!

Forget the studio versions of their songs. The live stuff! That's where it's at!

I only went to one show, in '91. It was amazing. Wish I'd gone to more, but hey, I got to see them on a good night. This night:
