Pretty sure that on this date in 1970, the Grateful Dead showed up for a show at M.I.T. & met Ned Lagen

B-52 & Spring '78 for this rainy afternoon

This is the best version of Lonesome & a Long Way From Home I've ever heard This Bay Area '78 compilation might be the best JGB official release Check out Lonesome and a Long Way From Home (Live) by Jerry Garcia Band feat. Jerry Garcia on Amazon Music music.amazon.com/albums/B0722...

Bong Hits & JGB. Time for church Check out Pure Jerry: Bay Area, 1978 by Jerry Garcia Band on Amazon Music music.amazon.com/albums/B0722...

Whoever programed the highway signs was getting ready for tomorrow One said "Han says Solo Down," & the other said "Sith happens. Slow down"

Tom Waits in The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

The Dead played a decent show on this date in 1970

I've reached the "stocking up on toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, and cleaning products" part of FuckTrump's term. There's a good chance non perishable foods are next I hope I'm wrong, but I fear the shelves in supermarkets looking a lot different in 4-6 wks

It's wild how life in my 40's consists of never sleeping enough & waking up knowing how every part of my day will be spent from 7 am-midnight

I just want to wake up to the news that he's dead. I want to never have to look at his stupid face or hear his stupid voice ever again. Can't he just die already?

Not now India & Pakistan. Please. No one has the mental energy to deal w/ this shit

Is this Catfish John from the JGB: Bay Area '78 the best one ever played or just the best one ever released? Check out Catfish John (Live) by Jerry Garcia Band feat. Jerry Garcia on Amazon Music music.amazon.com/albums/B0722...

A movie you've watched more than six times using GIFs:

Happy Anniversary to the Grateful Dead and The Velvet Underground sharing a bill at the Electric Theatre in Chicago, though I don't think they liked each other all too much. I've read that the VU went long on the 25th cutting into the Dead's set, eliciting this response from Pigpen on the 26th:

I just got back from chaperoning my 1st grader's field trip to a zoo, & after 4 hrs w/ the class I need a few hrs in a sensory depravation chamber to unwind. Elementary school teachers do not get paid enough. Neither do high school or pre-K teachers, for that matter

Trump Opens Up Nation’s Aquariums To Commercial Fishing

Looks like someone chose to root for the Mets

Life is better when Phish is playing shows, even if they're 3,000 miles away from me

We’ll know a deal with China is actually close if JD meets with the Dalai Lama

Whenever I watch an NBA game, I realize why I didn't watch that many NBA games, b/c the Knicks & Pistons just went back & forth 3 times each both hoisting & missing 3's instead of even trying to get any type of play set up in a playoff game

The wrong old man died last night. How much longer do we have to wait for FuckTrump's time to come?

Time for church Check out GarciaLive Volume Four: March 22nd, 1978 Veteran's Hall by Jerry Garcia Band on Amazon Music music.amazon.com/albums/B071V...

First Bong Hits of the high holiday

I'd like to thank the new Live Bait for reminding me that I've never seen a Magilla. I don't chase songs anymore, but that's on the short list of tunes I'd like to see live

What's this? (Makes biting motion at the wrists) It's Jesus biting his nails!

Looks like the evidence for this weird chemical abundance in an exoplanet atmosphere has gotten stronger with new JWST data: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/s... Is it really a sign of life? That’s still not clear; lots of analysis left to do. But it’ll be interesting to see how it all pans out! 🧪 🔭

Who could've guessed that they'd be coming after trans people? Oh that's right, anyone who was paying attention

If anyone shops at Trader Joe's, the Maple Pancake Snaps are another win, & the Brookie's just might have crack in them

I loved the Phish article in The New Yorker, but if I could ask its author one question, it would be: "You really saw Phish in Hampton in '97 & then just never saw them again until Mondegreen?"

"you might hear a song in which the phrase 'Gotta Jiboo!' is repeated far more than you'd like" That's a perfect sentence

Time for church. I loved my 1st listen through of this last Sunday so much, in doing it again before moving back to the live releases next week "It looks like Palm Sunday again" Check out Cats Under the Stars (Expanded) by Jerry Garcia Band on Amazon Music music.amazon.com/albums/B0713...

If you're still in love w/ Amazon Prime b/c of fast shipping times, know I ordered pants & shirts direct from Lee on Wednesday & they arrived today, so what good would ordering then through Amazon have done for me?

What Simpsons vibe are you bringing this summer?
