How long will it be before Phil pulls out the Jerry hologram to make a buck off that to.

Mickey is probably already working on that one.

Phil and Mickey both continue to tour and play music they love, and millions of fans love. Good shows …bad shows that comes with playing that much. Neither need to make a buck off of the legend of Jerry Garcia, he was one of a kind and no one in the Dead Family has ever tried to replace him only find people who can expand on his legacy with musical respect. Respect you obviously do not have for the other members of Jerry’s band. Telluride is an amazing place and will once again be filled with beautiful inspiring music that weekend.

furthur already has fake jerry playin for em,
all they need now is a jerry hologram
and then they do brent, pigpen, keith, vince, holograms too, and remake every show they ever played, for twice the money, and no lot scene of course.

Phil is over 70- I doubt he’s touring for the money. Some people can put a negative spin on anything. I’m sure it’ll be a great show.

Hey PM, Richard, and Joe, go fuck yourselves. Thanks…

Hey PM, Richard and Joe…Your bitter hatred is exactly what is wrong with this country. Go back to the bisco tour and GFY...

Amen to Dave’s comments! Love of music is what keeps the wheel turning. We are so lucky to still have these musicians bringing us joy.

PM, Richard, Joe – As the song says – “If you get confused listen to the music play.”
Good advice people, take it.
