This sucks man. RIP Bob. NFA Bobby wrote some absolutely timeless songs, Cassidy, Feel like a stranger, hell in a bucket and estimated were my favorite Bobby songshttps://youtu.be/G80uZoREKos?si=ftp5HMY6iPslsWGW
He's no Ace Frehley
>>129086000God damn. F
Oldfag here. Got on the bus in Brendan Byrne 83. Caught most east coast shows until 90 after my kid. I really wish everyone could experience something like a perfect dead show. It sounds trite when you try to explain so I'll just say I wish you all something like it. It was the best thing.
Fucking hippies
https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=bRONDQSSadI&si=BZnj57rx86A_SROUshit... RIP
Uhh is he going to get a sticky?
rip bob>>129086174rip the meadowlands

Did you ever waken to the sound of street cats making love?
I knew the grateful dead from 19 sixty-six. Who the FUCK are you?
I have to confess, I've never listened to the Grateful Dead before. (you can crucify me later)What's the best place to start with their discography? Most of their 'best' stuff seems to be from live performances.
RIP to a real one.
>>129086504I recommend Dicks Picks for live shows. I enjoy the '69 shows with Pigpen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxunaTzVOAc&list=PLLDkE2zxlBAeP6UKX861l9ehDc4mWv2-5
Bob Dylan is going to bury us all.
no sticky?
>>129086541Jannies have shit taste, this is not new.
>>129086504Cornell '77 is essential. Scarlet>Fire is a highlight.
>>129086504Look up live versions of:He's GoneTerrapin Station DealRamble on RoseSome of my favorite dead songs
>>129086174Why do we let 60 year old redditors on this board
>>129086548They're sleeping, go bug them on IRC if you want a sticky that bad.
>>129086504I would say skull and roses as a first starting place. if you like that check out europe 72. Cornell 77 is also essential but you do have to deal with Donna's wailings I put off their studio albums for a long time assuming their live stuff is better (which is mostly true) but Blues for Allah is incredible imo personally I like Brent's time in the band so I try to check out 80s live albums
Hes not going to get a sticky is he...

RIP Bob..time to drop some acid as a tribute
>>129086000RIP Bobby Ace Sticky. Now.
RIP Bobby you were great https://youtu.be/1xb6UBL386k is my pick for Bobby songs but they're all pretty great
>>129086646I like listening to the meltdown show. Grateful Dead Live at Berkeley Community Theater on 1986-04-21 : Free Borrow & Streaming : Internet Archive https://share.google/JuGGm8MxC6gI7fOBm

>>129086000Deserved trips ..... in memory of a man who enjoyed a long strange trip.
>>129086000Reminder Eddie Van Halen didn't a get sticky.
>>129086504Start here with their old stuff, tons of banter, this was before they were The Dead or The Warlocks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaqa9dNMLUAYears,65-73 are pretty good for Pigpen but he took a year or so off for health in 72 before coming back and dying but you really can't go wrong with anything in these yearsYears 77-79 are pretty good because they're getting into the groove of electrical and hitting their strideYears 87-89 are essential Midland years, he was an exception keyboardist with a lot of soul, when he died Jerry kind of gave up it feels likeYears 81-84 and 90-92 kind of suffer depending on the show
>>129086000>grateful deadNever cared for them.Jam bands are so fucking cringe. Just write an actual song lmao
>>129086110you wanted him to be a drunk and wear wigs?
>>129086000No fucking way. RIP Bobby.
>>129086000You were my perfect friend, right there until the end, I'm forever missing you until we meet again.
if you cant stickie this what can you stickie
that just leaves the rhythm devils fuckin hell of a run this band
May the 4 windz blo u safely hom :(
This really sucksI thought we'd have him for at least 5 to 10 more years
>>129086504Skull & Roses is the best entry point imo. Some of the shows the other anons have recommended are great but they're 2+ hours long which is a tall order for someone just dipping their toe in.
>>129086504I'd actually recommend listening to their studio/semi studio albums first
damn bros.... this actually hurts. I mean I know old people die and it's not like I'm LITERALLY CAN'T EVENING now, but I'm sad. Know what I'm listening to for the next week.
>>129087514He was old but not like 100. I expected him to continue being the statesman of the Dead for 5 to 10 more years.

>>129086504There's gonna be a lot of (friendly) different opinions but most people seem to agree that studio is where you should start before dipping into any live stuff which is really where they shined.Damn man I can't get Jack Straw out of my head>>129087514Jerry could never play Maze lol
>>129087666their first 5 studio albums were great, and some of their live albums were live/studio hybrids
>still no sticky
>>129086000See you on the bus bobbo
RIPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L59Ky3LZZmc
I have never understood the appeal of the Grateful Dead. It just sounds like really bad soft rock Willy Nelson covers done by a bunch of hippies that don’t understand rhythm or melodies.
>>129087730IMO their early stuff is better, before they went on to be CSNY-esque. Though, a lot of those songs are also great.Later on, their new material tended to be too soft/mellow.
>>129087686I always think of Jack Straw from Europe 72 as a sort of hybrid song even thought it's live.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NqggeXq6ms
>>129087761Europe 72 is a hybrid album.On the flip side, Anthem of the Sun is a partially live album even though it's also a studio album.
>>129086539I refuse to die before I piss on his grave

Thank you for the sticky mods. YER GETTIN PINNNED AND FREE DOSES
>>129087730The Dead ain't for everyone and that's ok
>>129087874It would be interesting to know how the Dead turned out if they didn't become a folk/country band

>>129086018RIP the first transwoman of color
>>129086954Jam bands is jazz for whites.Jazz 'musicians' shoot up heroin and spam a bunch of disconnected notes and fart sniffers think its smart.Jam bands take a load of acid, play the same song for three hours because they forgot where they're at while people who smell like ass think its smart.
I knew one guy who followed the grateful dead in the 80s and he was a fucking pedophile. I will never enjoy their music again. I assume most hardcore deadheads are also pedos (kys).
>>129088356nobody thinks it's "smart". You've just never listened to them and been told this is a target you can aim your bitching at with minimal pushback. Grateful Dead, Umphrey's McGee, moe. and Phish are great bands
>>129088487>t. 16 year old pissed off brownoid subhuman
>>129088547Don't listen to this retard. What you said here is a 100% fact-checked True fact about jam bands:>people who smell like ass think it's smart
Grateful Dead is gay and retarded but the gay retard was okay.

>>129088756Cool story. I really don't give a shit anymore even if it's true, desu. Neither do most people, they just talk a lot of shit.
>>129086504Not a huge fan myself, but they have some genuine moments of greatness. A lot of their songs feel like they were group efforts where three different guys had songs they were working on and they mashed them together and then got a good lyricist to tie it together. Some songs I watch out for are:Scarlet BegoniaUncle John's BandBrown Eyed WomenPeggy OAltheaFriend of the Devil

>>129088055Any more details on this? I'm just through the first few chapters of Long Strange Trip and doubt it's going to give any coverage to that theory.
>>129086000I walked him up on stage once, checked
>>129086000This one hurts, a lot. The Dead changed my life forever back in 2003 when I was 16. A friend of mine burned me a copy of 5/8/77 and the rest was history. My first show was The Dead at Bonnaroo 2004 and saw Ratdog, Phil & Friends, The Q, Furthur, Wolf Bros countless times throughout the years. I saw Bob play with Phish in Nashville in 2016 I believe and that was super special. Bob means a lot to me, as he does to countless others. His music changed my life forever and has left a serious impression upon my musical journey. Thank you, Bobby. I am eternally grateful for your talents and your spirit. You know our love will not fade away…
1978-01-08 is a great listen right now. All Bobby songs since Jerry's voice was shot
Going home, going homeBy the waterside, I will rest my bonesListen to the river sing sweet songsTo rock my soul>>129086174I was in awe of my dad for the shows he went to and finally felt the magic at a tribute band. I've been to a lot of concerts and there's nothing like it. Met a dude that saw them in 67 (and Led Zeppelin and Zappa in 69) and we talked about Cajun music lol.83 has some killer shows especially the fall tour, maybe the best imo

Crazy how Billy and Mickey outlived everyone. That’s fucking mind blowing. RIP to one of the GOATs. Mods won’t sticky this because 4Chan hates The Dead. One of the best bands to filter noobs.
Rest in peace. Lived life to the fullest and CHECKED
>>129089343This thread has been stickied for three hours retard
>>129086092Throwing Stones and my brother esau always suck me in when I see them on a playlisthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=aICQdwvlwXUI think about this probably every week, the smile on Bobby's face as he was jumping around anticipating the verse waiting for Jerry to finish melting faces
>>129089374My bad. I expected this shithole to not sticky since everyone automatically dismissesThe Dead just by who they are.
>>129086504Dick's Picks 15 & 20 are what got me hooked. Can't go wrong with Shakedown Street or Cats Under the Stars either. The Lyceum 72 shows are a great sampler for the early years. And the Hunter's Trix matrixes are almost all great.
>>129086769good idea, i'll drop first thing in the morning in solidarity. stay weir'd
Well fellas I just cried for a short 30 seconds. Bobby and Norm McDonald are the only two celebrity deaths that have ever gotten me watching them after they just passed
Thank you so much Bobby. Some music just carries you and you've carried me a lot.
RIP Bob, youre finally where youve been visiting. Gonna spin Anthem of the Sun in your memory my man.
>>129086000Love his syncopation and chording..Was an underrated rhythm guitar player. Textbook really.
Overrated CIA hack
Pigpen finally getting his band back together. RIP
Love you, Bobby. Your music changed me forever. NFA.
>>129086000brain wilson doesn't get a sticky but a literally who does
RIP Bob. You were the man.
>>129089648Brian Wilson knew who Bob Weir was so you're just an idiot.
>>129087730>no rhythmDo people really think this? The Dead's Americana rhythm is what sets them a league above
>>129089724that guy doesn't know what he's talking about
What a long, great trip it’s been
>>129087730It's the DUDE WEED LMAO culture and roadtrip essense that surrounds them, I think.
>>129087730Music is not for you then, my fren. The Grateful Dead filter so many people and you are clearly one of them.
>>129088756Don't believe Mike Gordon when he tells you that the photos are freeeeeeeeeeeeeee
we can share the women we can share the wine...
>>129086846Bob Weir was a Niners fanThe stinky ass bears with dried shit plastered to their hairy cheeks have no relationA bunch of bloated racist white drunks heckling the Indian guy at their local 7/11 cause he asked if they needed ketchup on their hot dogsGo pound sand somewhere else
>>129086000Dang it Bobby!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klreG3tjD1A
Bobby was the fucking man. Thank you for everything. Love ya, Ace.
Dead forever! RIP Bobby.
Huge loss. A serious bummer. He will be gratefully missed.
>>129086000finally they're all dead
>>129090461they'll find a way to milk this and their "fans"
>>129090461>>1290904983 are yet to go.
>>129089724ive listened to them for 5 minutes and it makes me pretty certain that hes baiting
>>129090675he means melody, either way theyre known for being shit and untalented for a reason
Maybe this is a sign that I should finally start listening to the dead
>>129087431this, he didnt seem to be in bad health at all.the rhythm devils are the only ones remaining now.RIP Bobby
He's finally Grateful...

The previous artist to get a sticky was the bassist from Limp Bizkit lmao
>15 hours>only 178 postsdon't need any better proof that /mu/ is dead than this
RIP Bobby. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with us. Eternally grateful.
FBob was way better than Jerry. Had the pleasure of seeing him on multiple occasions, first time was when Phish brought him out at shoreline at the “passing of the torch” show. Fucking epic.
>>129092533Yesterday half of the catalog was threads with zero replies lol
The Grateful Dead fucking suck so bad. Growing up, I always heard how psychedelic and transcendental their music was…turns out it’s just shitty wanking country. I thought they would sound like Pink Floyd or something but no, it’s like 30 minutes of “whoooooaaaooo I’m a ramblin’ man” jukebox ass honky tonk ass noodling bullshit
>>129092826this is a slow board outside of kpop and /pol/nigger bait threads
>>129087433Skull & Roses is exceptional but my favourite Dead release bar none is American Beauty. Gonna give those a listen later once I'm done my current queue. LOVE YOU BOBBY LONG LIVE THE DEAD!
Anyone ever checked out his solo material? Shit's pretty great, too.
>>129086174How bad did losing jerry hurt?
>>129093061It was earth shattering for countless people. It wasn’t big as Elvis or John Lennon passing away, but was in the same universe. Many people’s lives were drastically changed overnight.
>>129093032Yes. That’s a great album with a ridiculous lineup of players. Bob knew who to jam with, that’s for goddamn sure.
>>129086174I only saw Furthur once in 2011 but it was great, the viola lee and diamond dupree's blues were amazing. I have no interest in Dead n Co but Joe Russo's Almost Dead is really good.
>>129093135Furthur and “The Q” were the two best “Post Grateful Dead” spin off bands ever, without question. One of my really good buddies saw 3/4ths of Furthur’s shows throughout its entire inception. Kinda wish I did those tours with him. Furthur was absolutely fucking amazing.
>>129092831This dude got filtered so hard lol
>>129092831This lol. Fuck that gay CIA hippie band
>>129086504Start with American Beauty
>>129088356>t. has never played music with another human
>>129086954>Just write an actual songWhy not just say you're a fucking ignorant retard and leave it at that?
>>129094076He's the type of autist who needs a 2:00 minute song or he has a temper tantrum. Can't bring him to a show unless he has his headphones on.
listened to ace last night. rip bobby
all the legs are on their way out. who's gonna fill their shoes?
>>129093061Incomparable. I'm a Jerry is the thing guy. I'm of course sad about Bob, but at this age it didn't hit the same.
How do you think he's holding up?
wtf is wrong with /mu/?FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
>>129094244Likely died years ago.
>>129094160Well there's obviously Phish. Joe Russo's Almost Dead is better than Dead and Company honestly. After Phish umphrey's is still going but unfortunately the third generation of jam bands never really took. Twiddle had a big push but they broke up. My money is on if Trey Anastasio died tomorrow it would probably be Eggy to take up the mantle. They're pushing Billy Strings hard but the problem is almost all of his songs suck ass.
>>129092831I really appreciate these kinds of opinions, because I know you actually mean what you’re saying. feeling very Grateful I took the bus.
>>129094402
>>129087951>>129088055>>129089286the wild part isn’t whether the CIA “invented” counterculture, it’s how easy counterculture got absorbed. like either the state helped seed it or they just sat back and watched kids self-sedate instead of organizing. both lead to the same outcome. tons of people tuning out of politics, economics, labor, etc and vibing on personal transcendence. psychedelics didn’t spark revolt, they sparked retreat. you don’t need to rig a conspiracy if the culture naturally drifts toward escapism.imo the bigger question is why every attempt at escape ends up getting turned into a brand. woodstock, coachella, ketamine wellness clinics. the machine doesn’t care if you’re dropping acid or dropping out as long as you’re not building alternative power structures. real threat isn’t tripping, it’s organizing.

I like the dead but I think given more time Allman brothers would've been the cooler group, shame about duane. Midnight rider is like the equivalent to the deads best studio material and mountain jam is easily as good as they get live
>>129094686for deadheads, it signifies a profound embrace of the band's music, lifestyle, and community, a continuous journey.
>>129094712The Allman Brothers were still together up until Gregg died in 2017. >well actually in my alternate reality.....well it didn't happen. The dead mogged the allman brothers and there's nothing you can do about it in Bob Weir's sticky you little faggot
