As I knew people would throw anti-dead remarks on my thread, I started this one for those people to vent their angst.
I wasn't aware folks wouldn't make that connection. All apologises!

What did one Deadhead say to the other when they ran out of weed?
"Hey man, this music SUCKS!!!" |

whatever fruitcake....very few bands survived 30 years together and left their mark like the Dead did. Besides, needless to say you are the one with the issue. Dead retired 13 years and you bring this up....here? Needless to say some hippy didn't give you any free love. Enjoy your American Idol fruitcake. More your cup of tea I would say. |

'I hate everything' by The Queers kind of sums it up well enough for me.
'I hate the Grateful Dead
Their hippy fans are such a waste
Everything about them
Even Jerrys ugly face' |

I just added this thread for:
1. a place for people to diss the Dead so they don't ruin my other one
2. a bit of humor
I didn't get people to learn 35 Dead tunes because I hate the band.
two shows, both unique, both 2 sets plus...hope to see you there! |

Q: How many deadheads does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: Zero. They just wait for it to burn out, then they follow it around the country.  |

Europe 72 is one of the greatest live albums ever recorded, along with Live at Leeds. |

the queers = on of the most insignificant bands of all time
the grateful dead - defined a generation
even if you don't like their music how could you not respect them? |

Why start a thread that attacks the Dead?
Perhaps because there is 2 kinds of ignorance in this world:
1. Passive ignorance � I simply don�t know
2. Aggressive ignorance � because I don�t know I need to stop you
Sorry for ya'll that missed out on the MAGIC
Me?
"Never had such a good time
in my life before
I'd like to have it one time more
One good ride from start to end
I'd like to take that ride again!!" |

He's not attacking them, he's promoting a show for two Dead cover shows. |

Just read the post - thank you!
I'm coming out to Korea in a month or so, I'm completely PSYCHED he is doing this!! Grateful Dead therapy in the heartland of South Korea...perhaps I can make it out there after all...
Is there an e-mailing list to keep in touch or stay informed of future gigs?

(Ok, I'm only posting these in the spirit of humor, and of course because I can't PM anybody unless I have 25 posts....so gotta get my numbers up)
Deadhead Zeke was seeing a show out of town, and was going to crash at his pal Cosmo's place. However, Zeke missed Cosmo after the show, and was feeling pretty lost and disoriented. So he called Cosmo asking how to get to his pad. Cosmo told him to look at a street sign to find out where he was, and he would go pick him up. Zeke looks at the street and says, "I'm at the intersection of Walk, Don't Walk". Cosmo replies "Dude! that's right outside my building!"
Jerry Garcia and Eric Clapton are captured by cannibals one day. Before they are about to be cooked for dinner they are granted one final wish. Jerry says "hand me my old guitar and let me play Dark Star one last time...". Eric says "please kill me before he starts".
Cosmo the deadhead is at the end of his rope. He's broke, half a continent away from his folks and he needs to get home. All he has left is his dog, Astro. He spies a likely yuppie couple on the way to their Porsche. He says, "Excuse me, I'm broke and I want to sell my dog for bus money. He's special dog, he even talks! Ask him something." The man seems appalled, but the woman is intrigued. "Oh Dale, that would be so kewl! OK, doggie, what's your favorite dead song?" Astro barks "Wharf, wharf, wharf". The couple laugh at this and leave, without buying Astro, of course. Astro looks at Cosmo and says, "maybe I should have said Playin'?" |
