The Poojer Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Nothing left to do, but smile, smile, smile! I'm so happy the music is carrying on. It's so nice to see yet another generation get the opportunity to enjoy the music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gomper Posted August 3, 2017 Author Share Posted August 3, 2017 awesome stuff!!! Glad you liked it! I'm sure it's out of production now but that whole JGB show came out on DVD long ago. August 1, 1990 was supposed to be the Dead at Shoreline but when Brent died, Jerry stepped in I still miss them both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Poojer Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) Brent was amazing. That probably signaled the end for Jerry. Vince was a great keyboard player but Brent brought soul. Have you had the pleasure of seeing dead and company? So much fun, so nice to see yet another chapter being written Glad you liked it!

gomper Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 Brent was amazing. That probably signaled the end for Jerry. Vince was a great keyboard player but Brent brought soul. It was pretty much over after Brent kicked. Some nice Hornsby show moments but it never seemed like the band recovered. Certainly not Jerry.

Eric Moulds on my A** Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Watched Long Strange Trip on Amazon the other day. Highly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoTom Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 (edited) Watched Long Strange Trip on Amazon the other day. Highly recommend it. Agreed. The last part, however, was heartbreaking. Obviously we know how it ends, but I wasn't aware of just how trapped Jerry felt by the enterprise that he built. All he wanted to do was play music, but he ended up leading a movement that he never intended to start, but which he felt obligated to continue. At the end, I reflected on this line from Ripple: "You who choose to lead must follow, but if you fall, you fall alone." Who knew how prophetic that would turn out to be. If you get a chance to see Grateful Dawg, a documentary about Jerry's friendship with David Grisman, check it out.
