    Grateful Dead

    in Someone Else's Song

    Posted

    I think Workingmans Dead and American Beauty for an easy start then maybe One from the Vault or a Dick's Picks. There are also some good shows streaming on archives.org. I really have been missing Jerry this summer...so many years later and that sound from his guitar still gives me goose bumps. It's fun to listen to the early stuff then check out the later years with the crazy MIDI stuff...have fun.

    There were days

    and there were days

    and there were days between

    Summer flies and August dies

    the world grows dark and mean

    Comes the shimmer of the moon

    on black infested trees

    the singing man is at his song

    the holy on their knees

    the reckless are out wrecking

    the timid plead their pleas

    No one knows much more of this

    than anyone can see anyone can see

     

    There were days

    and there were days

    and there were days besides

    when phantom ships with phantom sails

    set to sea on phantom tides

    Comes the lightning of the sun

    on bright unfocused eyes

    the blue of yet another day

    a springtime wet with sighs

    a hopeful candle lingers

    in the land of lullabies

    where headless horsemen vanish

    with wild and lonely cries lonely cries

     

     

    There were days

    and there were days

    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

    stood upon a mountain top

    walked barefoot in the snow

    gave the best we had to give

    how much we'll never know we'll never know

     

     

    There were days

    and there were days

    and there were days between

    polished like a golden bowl

    the finest ever seen

    Hearts of Summer held in trust

    still tender, young and green

    left on shelves collecting dust

    not knowing what they mean

    valentines of flesh and blood

    as soft as velveteen

    hoping love would not forsake

    the days that lie between lie between

     

     

    Garcia and Hunter true mystics...Goddess bless you both.

    Only the memories remain:

    I just finished phil's book which really speaks to the big machine the dead was at the end. I did read somewhere that Billy said that they could maybe play together now that they didn't have to be business men, which Phil points out time and again they were really bad at. I hope for some fun releases and I dread the day I return to Vegas to see The Grateful Dead Musical but you guys know I'll be there :P

    JT's newfound health

    Lucinda Williams, Emmylou Harris, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Richard Thompson, David Hidalgo, Louie Perez, Cesar Rosas, Elvis Costello all doing brillant work later in their lives...I think it gets better and better for many artists. And being clean adds a pretty intense punch to some peoples work.

    Going to shows alone

    Pretty much you're guaranteed your first Wilco show will make you very very happy!

    "Do not postpone happiness."

    Jeff Tweedy, or some Buddhist lady, or both.

     

     

    I went to see Wilco based on advice from Wendy...traveling alone has never been anything but an adventure for me and I always meet interesting people. So, I say go for it and if you can throw in an art museum or a beautiful park more power to you!
