    Rock the Nation on a plesant valley sunday
    Ronnie Montrose joined the Heart of Gold band after a long battle with prostrate cancer, and what an addition he is, I remember in 72 when Montrose hit the airwaves with this unknown singer and those awesome guitar riffs, he will be missed.Davy Jones singer for the Monkees, amerika's answer to the beatles, the "cute" monkey. I remember back in 67, I was just a wee lad and was a big monkey fan, my older brother and I went to see the Monkees, I had no idea who Jimi Hendrix was, being but 13 I was one of those "Davy, Mickey screamers", but my brother had heard him and he was there to see Jimi, I wanted Davy. Then, I heard Hendrix and it was a life changing moment. I would never listen to surf music again. Rest in Peace Both gone before their time.

    true companion of my much loved Uncle, Anne Morgan passed away today from terminal cancer.forever thoughtful and in tune with nature, it happened all too soon. thank God he was there in the hospital to guide her to the next realm. all of us should be so lucky that we have a loved one at our side. and that was a wonderful post, piper at the gates of dawn. the trip is certainly long and strange. thanks for sharing your thoughts. they don't go unnoticed.

    what a long strange trip its been
    as i sit back sometimes. and i remember things. one of my memories is always with my great grandfather at his house as a kid. i remember loving to go to his house. grandma got sick with alzheimers and was in a home, and my grate grandfather was in poor health. i remember my mother let me take a week off school so i could go with him cuz he was a truck driver. unfortunately a few days later he passed away. but that was such a great week. i remember we left pa and went all around to the southern states. he had a cassette deck and shortly after the truck left the driveway, cigarette in his mouth, and my first cigarette lit, he told me to grab his tapecase marked gd. all we did is listen to his collection of grateful dead tapes. full shows and everything. i didnt take in alot of it at the time, but i do remember as we got back home, the last sentance from the stereo was what a long strange trip its been. i gave him a hug and told him i had so much fun. when he died in the hospital he was listening to that tape. and it was at the same spot it stopped in his truck as when his heart stopped. i didnt listen to the dead until i turned 19. now i understand it all. i miss him lots and hes always in my heart. when i get the money i wanna get the space your face locket necklace and put a picture of him in it as a way to me to keep him close to my heart physically.

You know in his autobiography "A Reporters Life" Cronkite mentions "it was louder than the drums at a Grateful Dead concert" I always wondered how he would know that. My kids and I met him once at Epcot it was very early in the morning on a very cold December day in 1985 and we were practically the only people in the exhibit about oil.He was being escorted by a guide and was kind enough to shake hands with my two boys and pose for a picture. And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

I wonder if you ever imagined your creation would spawn such masterpieces as the ABB at Fillmore East, Blow By Blow, all Led Zeppelin, not to mention a tune or two by Jerry and Bobby and many, many more ... thank you, thank you, thank you. RIP " Where does the time go? "

...RIP Les, it wouldn't have been the same without you... Les invented the electric guitar, and the process of multi-track recording. Leo Fender invented the solid-body guitar, think Fender Stratocaster here... Leo was a genius too, think of all the Fender Amps he invented... RIP Leo as well...

thought the Soupbone was really named Milton, his brother Lenny (Leonard) Supman; Hines was one Soupy's original stage names, though not his birth name. *** no matter, that which we call a Soupbone by any other name would still throw a pie in your face. ( -: peace.

Detroit / Michigan heads - and many heads everywhere - might know John Cox, owner of longtime Head shop Three Doors Down in Pontiac. He was stabbed to death on Thursday by some crackhead who couldn't have pulled more than $100 bucks out of the register there. I've been going to Three Doors Down since I was 13 and had to have my mom drive me there, and John himself is responsible for about 95% of my early Dead tape collection. He was surely instrumental in getting me on the Bus, but the main thing is that a kinder and gentler soul couldn't have existed. He probably would have given that crackhead the money if he had asked. Instead we've lost one of the real good ones, in one of the most ridiculous and senseless acts I've ever heard of. Rest in Peace, John, and have a real good time with Jerry.
