Never met Wavy Gravy. But we did pass one around with Freddie King outside a bar in Baton Rouge.

i caught phil lesh and friends a few summers ago in boston. after a vast quantity of $10 harpoon drafts, i ended up at murphys law (the bar at the end of gone baby, gone), where a sam adams rocketed from my hand and shattered all over my flip flops. i have fuzzy recollections of decisions being made to stop drinking. luckily, i was in the stubborn/alcoholic irish capital of america, and a southie local advised me that that was quitting. i remember getting another beer and then...fade to black

current bands you prob dont know but are worth a look:
assembly of dust (folk)
in like lions (rock/local)
zutons

Kitty -- was it Serious or Delerious or Doris , The Clitoris-- I can't remember. Dave.

What about the Diggers? Other than forming cool bands hippies have no follow through. Smoke dope for the great world changing idea then.......nothing but a wandering away. Hippies need moderation, need to lay off the dirt root and hit the speed for the long run to fruition, then and only then back to the dirty weed to admire the accomplishment.

I'll take Burroughs and a few select Beats.

Try out one of the MOST under rated bands - quicksand. Check out the album- Slip.

Soundgarden - Screw Pearl Jam
Tricky - Everything
Mercury Rev - the early stuff

Brother Mike is a Dead Head. Had Backstage tickets many years ago. Garcia was so junked -out , all he could do was drool. Dave.

sorry I missed them -- many times felt tied to the whippin post. once Duane went tits up in a cylce crash the sound changed .Dave.
