The Grateful Dead are among the most unlikely stars in the history of rock and roll. They created a culture and became one of the most famous bands in the world on their own terms. They toured relentlessly, made things up as they went and didn’t care about making mistakes. They never cared about being famous, and would probably hate me even calling them stars in this monologue.
In this trippy episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we’re taking a look at Grateful Dead – the music, the drugs, the bootlegs, the Deadheads, their impact on music, their legacy, and what it’s like seeming in them in concert. Turn on, tune in, and drop out.
Our show is sponsored by our home base of McCusker's Tavern at 17th and Shunk Streets in Philadelphia. We are proud supporters of our friends at Boldfoot Socks. We are just one of the dozens of awesome shows on the Pantheon Podcast Network.
