I always wondered what the hell Pigpen said following the "Turn On Your Lovelight" track on the Live Dead album. It sounded like "...and leave it on." and I was right as confirmed by this autographed photo above. Long Live The Pig!!!

Photo date may be wrong

Was this photo actually taken on March 8, 1973 as it says. I think the date is wrong.
