Zitat des Tages von Bob Weir:
Be as in touch with your dreams as you can be.
The same song on a different day was a different song.
I think if people value democracy, they had damn well better get out and exercise their right to vote while their vote still means something.
The premise that we're working with is that when most people go to a show, they're not really watching what's going on onstage. They may be watching what's on the screen. But when the songs are playing in their mind's eye, they're actually watching a movie.
Whatever I'm going to be doing, a lot of it will be furthering this heritage, this legacy.
We wanted to establish a new fan base over here. And second, we wanted to challenge ourselves. We wanted to bring what is ostensibly new music to fresh ears and see what lights them up.
The Grateful Dead played for three hours on a given night, plus sound check.
What I like best about music is when time goes away.
I don't believe in death.
When we started out, there was so much cash involved that it attracted an element you'd rather not do business with.
I'm looking forward to some more solo acoustic dates. That's a lot of fun for me, because I get to be alone with the song. And I get to hear every little nuance; if my instrument does something that I wasn't expecting, I get to chase that. Chase that down a little bit.
I have always had a certain aversion to heat. And for me, the name of the game on the stage is 'beat the heat.' It's always July under the lights.
Both my kids like Adele, and I gotta say, the girl can sing.
One of the things that the Grateful Dead did, way back when, was we spent a lot of time just turning each other on to music. If somebody was listening to something that really caught their ear, they'd make sure that everybody else in the band heard it, and that came home for us in innumerable ways.
