Bob Weir for me was an excellent writer and guitarist, and I always liked his contributions on Dead albums. What helped me get into Dead music was my mom introducing me to Texas Outlaw Country when I was about to graduate high school and I found that there was a kind of country that I could get into that had a richer sense of storytelling in its lyrics and more of a rock vibe to it than the Nashburg Muck coming out in the 80s. (Even country fans agree that the 80s were pretty awful for country.) When I got to college, I decided to try out a few Grateful Dead albums and was locked in on American Beauty and Workingman's Dead, both of which dropped the psychedelic stuff for more straight-ahead country and folk-flavored rock, very much like that Texas Outlaw stuff I liked. They lost me again in the Godcheaux era, but I was glad to get my copy of Touch of Grey when it came out at a rock bottom time of my life in mid-1987.



Give "Hell in a Bucket" a try, it's by Bob Weir and one of my favorite Dead tunes.

Holy shit!

Motörhead guitarist PHIL CAMPBELL has passed away at the age of only 64!

It seems that some sort of an operation had gone terribly wrong...no details of that though...

Well you can rock with Lemmy again sir!

Chuck Norris was a class act, no question about it. Loved his style.

RIP Chuck.

A lot of his films I saw were low budget, but he raised them above b-movie status.

I loved a good Chuck Norris joke back in the day, and so did Chuck:

"They tried to put Chuck Norris's face on Mount Rushmore, but the granite wasn't tough enough for his beard." – Stated by Norris to be his personal favorite "fact".

And then this one...
