  1. Have any Live GD from 1964 in San Fran?

    Posted

    I just came across this in my book about the naming of the band.. Just thought some of you might find it entertaining.. Sure made me smile!

    On November 12, a cold gray windy day, the four of them gathered at Lesh's house on High Street. Garcia had smoked DMT before coming over, but the others were sober. Garcia and Lesh sat on the couch as Weir and Kreutzmann hovered behind them. They paged through a Bartlett's, read out a thousand possibilities, rejected them all. Then Garcia opened Phil's girlfriend Ruth's Funk and Wagnall's New Practical Standard Dictionary (1956), shook it open, and stabbed it with his finger. "Everything else on the page went blank," he later said, "diffuse, just sorta oozed away, and there was GRATEFUL DEAD, big black letters edged all around in gold, man, blasting out at me, such a stunning combination." "Hey, man. How about the Grateful Dead?" Lesh began to jump up and down, shouting, "That's it! That's it!" Weir didn't like it, thinking it morbid. "It held us back for years and years," he would say much later. As soon as he thought about it, even Garcia found it "kinda creepy." Hanging out at Swain's Music Store, Jerry asked Evie, a clerk there, how to spell "grateful." "However you spell it," she sniffed, "you'll never make it with that name."

    I'm looking in my book right now, "A Long Strange Trip" and in 1964, Garcia, Weir, Tom Stone, and Dave Parker were in a band called Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions.

    Then Garcia, Weir, Pigpen, Lesh, and Kreutzmann as the Warlocks that same year.

    I don't think they were called the Grateful Dead until late 1965..

    I just got this from a Railroad Earth newsletter... Just thought I'd share!

    Though this has nothing to do with the band, we are all pet owners and animal lovers, so please read below if you use Iams or Eukanuba products!

    P&G Pet Care Announces Voluntary Participation in Menu Foods’ Nationwide U.S. and Canadian Recall of Specific Canned and Small Foil Pouch ‘Wet’ Cat and Dog Foods

    Dayton, OH (March 16, 2007) – In response to the recent Menu Foods, Inc. nationwide recall of wet pet foods, P&G Pet Care has announced a voluntary recall in the United States and Canada on specific 3 oz., 5.5 oz., 6 oz. and 13.2 oz. canned and 3 oz. and 5.3 oz. foil pouch “wet†cat and dog food products manufactured by Menu Foods Inc. Emporia, Kansas plant with the code dates of 6339 through 7073 followed by the plant code 4197. This voluntary recall is part of a larger product recall by Menu Foods Inc., a contract manufacturer that makes a small portion of canned and foil pouch ‘wet’ cat foods for Iams and Eukanuba as well as other non-P&G brands. There have been a small number of reported cases of cats from the US (none in Canada) becoming sick and developing signs of kidney failure. The signs of kidney failure include loss of appetite, vomiting, and lethargy. P&G Pet Care has received no case reports involving dogs.

    This voluntary product recall involves discontinuation of all retail sales and product retrieval from consumers. Consumers should stop using the affected products immediately, and consult with a veterinarian if any symptoms are present in their pet. All Iams and Eukanuba products carry a 100 percent guarantee, and consumers can receive a refund for recalled products. For more information, consumers can contact the company at 1-800-882-1591 or visit www.Iams.com and www.Eukanuba.com for details. Review the list of involved products here.

    To read can product codes, refer to the bottom of the can. The first four numbers of the second line of numbers are the date code, and the following four numbers indicate the plant code. For example, if the second line begins with four numbers from 6339 to 7073 followed by the plant code 4197, then the can should be recalled. For foil pouches, the code numbers are located at the lower left hand corner on the back of the pouch. The date and plant codes appear in the third group of numbers, beginning an 11-digit sequence. See www.Iams.com and www.Eukanuba.com for illustrated details. Review the list of involved products here.

    P&G Pet Care is taking this proactive step out of an abundance of caution, because the health and well-being of pets is paramount in the mission of Iams and Eukanuba. Tests of some affected product have not revealed the cause of sickness, and testing will continue until a better understanding of the facts has been achieved. All other canned and small foil wet pouch products produced at other plants are not affected by this issue. Iams and Eukanuba “dry†products are not manufactured at Menu Foods and not affected by this issue. Iams and Eukanuba biscuits, treats and sauces are not affected by this issue.

    P&G Pet Care has informed the Food and Drug Administration and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency on this issue. The company regrets any inconvenience to its consumers and retail customers.

    Whimsical, a pen in motion, thoughts roll in my mind,

    scamper by so quickly now an agile word would find,

    well I tried to grasp an angel, saw her wings, and watched her fly

    reality for mingling dreams to scurry back and get in line.

    We ordered out for mindless dribble,

    over used, half wit, ishkabibble,

    corner store junkies giving advice

    we ordered out for paradise.

    A gallery, a pen in motion, a delightful line instead,

    it's chivalry outranks commotion on the roads most common tread,

    and on those boots, the clicking heels, the dreams, the angel starts to fly,

    to masquerade the world's parade for only seconds at a time.

    We ordered out for mindless dribble,

    over used, half wit, ishkabibble,

    corner store junkies giving advice

    we ordered out for paradise.

    Apple butter toast is nice,

    envisioned on a third wind twice,

    my fine breaded friend was denied by the vice,

    And they missed the perfume.

    In a native centered world, one picks the fruit right off the trees,

    on a wild blue island in the deep blue seas,

    beyond a paleocentric world with all our people shaped in threes,

    the only way I get around is some mild insanity.

    We ordered out for mindless dribble,

    over used, half wit, ishkabibble,

    corner store junkies giving advice

    we ordered out for paradise.

    Apple butter toast is nice,

    envisioned on a third wind twice,

    my fine breaded friend was denied by the vice,

    and they missed the perfume
