Hippie love - The Dead with “They Love Each Other”

I thought I’d share that love, ergo I give you The Dead.

Dark Star Orchestra :: Jerry? Is that you?

I love the Dead as much as the next hippie chick and wasn’t looking for a replacement for our boy, Jerry.  However, Dark Star Orchestra just lit up (no jokes please) my iPod with some awesome covers.  A tribute band that can give the old days a run for their money?  Pshaww…but when you need […]

You know, often when the Dead […]
