One of my favorite Dead songs. Every so often when, when the world seems like its just spins faster and faster, I slow it down with some tunes from the dead. This is for you reading this comment right now. Sit back and enjoy. Cheers!
My boyfriend took me to see Dead and Co this past weekend in Vegas at The Sphere, and it was truly a remarkable experience I'll treasure the rest of my life. We saw them two nights in a row, and I hope I see them again in the future! (I'm a new fan. My partner is a decades long dead head).. this is also one of my favorites, if not my absolute favorite, as well.
John Mayer does not get the recognition he deserves.... Bob weir is fantastic but John is amazing here. I love jerry but John is a sublime alternative. Who thought we would be enjoying GD music in 2019!!! Just be "grateful"
Maybe its the band and stage that tied the rug together... No, really. Mayer is one hell of a weaver. You should see the doily that he knitted my grandmother...
I love John Mayer's voice. He brings some of the same plaintiveness that Jerry brought to the table. And, btw, Bob Weir is highly underrated IMHO. His carefully placed rhythm guitar licks have always provided the foundation on which Jerry & John Mayer have soared. And yes, it's NOT the Grateful Dead, but it's pretty damn close and beautiful nevertheless.
I love bobby ive seen him over 150 times after.jery passed but the one guy that competez with weir especially when you throw in the voice is dave mathews
I grew up with a novice knowledge of the Dead, based on my Skeletons in the Closet Greatest Hits CD. It wasn’t until JM joined and started playing the tunes that true Dead fans love and revere, and I never even heard before, that I fell in live with those deeper cuts. Turns out that my three favorite songs have sprung from this newfound devotion brought on my John, Jeff and Otiel: Terrapin, Eyes of the World and this beauty. Thank you, John Mayer!
I must admit , after Jerry passed .. it was a Spot that could Never be filled.. but John Mayer has the most Amazing Perfect fit in the Band .. Really Cool , and has the Touch .. I think Jerry would Highly approve ..
Sometimes u couldn’t hear Jerry as well as John but Jerry was full of emotion & he really was a hurting man all his life but music made it better but thank god John took his place & does his own thing by not trying to b Jerry ! Much respect to John Mayer ! ❤❤❤❤
Mayer is doing some cool stuff here...i like that hes approaching the solos like Jerry but still making it his (Mayer's). Thanks for sharing...i like that Jerry will approach the first solo one way and then use other techniques for the second and other rounds...Mayer is showing his stuff like that too
JM has received criticism from some Deadheads in comparison to Garcia. Jerry will always be the man and foundation of the band. His style and contribution will never be able to be replicated evidently, yet I believe Dead and Co should be embraced, especially for today’s audience. I’m from Australia and the Dead craze never really caught on here. It wasn’t until I studied in the States that someone introduced me, but I never took to the Dead until I got back home. Now I’d love to see Dead & Co in concert as a nod to the culture that the band has produced and for a live appreciation for the genius of Jerry Garcia. This said, I believe Mayer is a masterclass guitarist and should be appreciated for his influence to modern guitarists. I’ve met a few American Cali immigrants here in Australia and the first thing I ask is a Grateful Dead story. One spoke about that the band had a thing where a giant inflatable house would land in the middle of the car park before a show to trip everyone out? Can anyone confirm that? I hope to make it over for the summer shows 🌹💀🧸
The band,with John Mayer HAS gotten tighter over the years 😊❤🎉and I will see them as long as they play together.....Why don't DEAD & CO. release VIDEO/ DVD 'S of the year's they have toured ?? I would love to own the shows I took in over the years, anyone have any answers ?
Gone are the days when the ox fall down, Take up the yoke and plow the fields around. Gone are the days when the ladies said' "Please, Gentle Jack Jones won't you come to me." Brown-eyed women and red grenadine, The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean. Sound of the thunder with the rain pouring down, And it looks like the old man's getting on. 1929 when he stepped to the bar, drank to the dregs of the whiskey jar. 1930 when the wall caved in, he made his way selling red-eyed gin. Brown-eyed women and red grenadine, The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean. Sound of the thunder with the rain pouring down, And it looks like the old man's getting on. Delilah Jones was the mother of twins, Two times over and the rest were sins. Raised eight boys, only I turned bad, Didn't get the lickin's that the other ones had. Brown-eyed women and red grenadine, The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean. Sound of the thunder with the rain pouring down, And it looks like the old man's getting on. Tumble down shack in Big Foot county. Snowed so hard that the roof caved in. Delilah Jones went to meet her God, And the old man never was the same again. Daddy made whiskey and he made it well. Cost two dollars and it burned like hell. I cut hickory just to fire the still, Drink down a bottle and be ready to kill. Brown-eyed women and red grenadine, The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean. Sound of the thunder with the rain pouring down, And it looks like the old man's getting on. Gone are the days when the ox fall down, Take up the yoke and plow the fields around. Gone are the days when the ladies said' "Please, Gentle Jack Jones won't you come to me." Brown-eyed women and red grenadine, The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean. Sound of the thunder with the rain pourin' down
No doubt John Mayer is seriously talented. I think he has stepped in and showed courage. Please please dont ever suggest that he has taken a Jerry song and made it better? That is actually quite absurd
@@JackHawk78 It's not a suggestion, it's an opinion. If something sounds better to your ears then that's simply how it is. Nothing absurd about it and nothing to argue about.
I love John’s pants ! They r so together now ! I just love it long live the Dead ! ❤️🐰🌹🐇☮️❤️❤️🔥💥😱😵💫🥰👿👹🧛♂️happy Halloween everybody when it gets here !
One in-ear in one out is the way to go. Sometimes if I'm comfortable I take em both out cuz you dont get the same feel with in-ears as just open. There's a certain raw connection that only comes when your ear has direct contact with the space around you.
