Didn't know the name, but first thought upon seeing that photo was "is that the Clown from House of 1000 Corpses?"  He certainly had a distinctive way of staring into the camera.  RIP.

So how many are still Grateful (and not Dead)?

[cwmbrancity]

Lesh, Bob Weird, Hart & Kreutzmann. How they ever let John Mayer nr Garcia’s guitars is a travesty.

Robert Hunter rarely gets mentioned in the pantheon of musical lyricists, seems the focus is overshadowed by all the side trips re-Deadheads/counter-culture/lsd & it’s very easy to sneer at w/hindsight. My favourite band by some margin for musicality & Robert Hunter’s use of language is the cherry on top.

I have a friend that house sits for rich people up in Marin county. He was house sitting for some multi million dollar house which he invited me to. I was told that I need to park my car somewhat in their flower bed or Bob Weir gets pissed off. Apparently he was like two houses down.

[marf]

Thats cool. I watched a doc on him, He does have a nice house

It's quite acceptable for Peter Sissons to receive oral sex during disaster reports on the Nine O'Clock News.

Is that what you call a blow by blow analysis of the events?
