A Thread for Premium Dead (whatcha Grateful for?)

[chazmo]

Just generally...

My latest wall-hanging. Not something I normally go for, but I won it at a banquet I attended recently and I like the sentiment.



For the record, I do like the Dead.

Shakedown Street
Bearly Dead
Stella Blue
Dead Meat
Ace & Friends
Grateful Dead Allstars
The Spadtastics
Gratefully Yours

A couple of my friends have a local, Orlando area Dead tribute band called The Grateful Spread. They're very talented musicians and really do a fantastic job, mainly just focusing on the overall energy and feel, rather than nailing the band's appearance or exact instrument tones. Super fun to see live. The bassist (one of my buddies) plays a Fender Precision bass... sometimes I just want to force him to use one of my Starfire basses or my Alembic
