Original Grateful Dead bandmembers perform Imagine and Blackbird


[Posted by Katie Hickox on Monday, 06/22/09 8:58 pm] [Comments] [Full Blog] [Tweet This]

Who would have thought that the Grateful Dead could play Beatles and John Lennon songs?

Mickey Hart and Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead opened their set playing a jam version of 'Blackbird' and ended their set with 'Imagine' for a small group in Marin Saturday afternoon at a fundraiser to help California Senator Barbara Boxer.� Bob sang the lead vocals with Mickey playing drums. Boxer spoke briefly before introducing them to the audience.

The lunchtime event�was held outside at a lovely venue near San Anselmo�that was high on a hill and had beautiful terraced gardens. Bob Weir had written out the set list which included just a few Grateful Dead songs such as FOD which stands for 'Friend of the Devil'.� When asked what inspired him to�perform 'Imagine', he said 'a request was made from one of the hosts' and was the first time they had performed 'Imagine' in concert.

Bob remembered all the words to 'Imagine' and the band all did a great job on the song.� The author was pleased to be in such highly esteemed company and was at the right place at the right time to get a photo taken with Bob and Mickey.

hippy father's day!

Are you like me in that your walls are filled up with posters?
Honestly, we have about 60 posters (yes, framed) on our walls and plenty more waiting to be placed- I'm thinking it's time to spread the love to the living room- where the walls are completely bare at the moment....
Oh about poster art- you must go and check this site out!

Lazy Daze

I'm enjoying a slight break from blogging - not really gone just getting stuff done.
Hope to catch up on some of my incomplete tour reports before it's time to go to shows!
Maybe Greek & Pozo's or maybe Seattle?
Or maybe just stashing the cash to extend my Jamaican dog daze? Whichever- I'll still be weir freaking along!
