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 […]

In continuing with our chill themed weekend I figured you can’t have a chill weekend without the Dead. I was actually thinking Ripple but most live versions have too much background noise. I also didn’t want something 12 minutes long which eliminated some other live faves. So, Brokedown it is.
