HaMike Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Check the WNED schedule. Tucker's show is broadcast a few times. I think the next one is May 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodRev Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Is this guy serious? Tucker Carlson is a Dead fan? That came out of left field.Good interview, though. Sounds like a good book, didn't realize Phil had been writing. Anybody get their hands on it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vermontdave Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Tucker Carlson is a sycophantic fool. PBS has sold out to the right-wing. And his bowtie just angers me.To paraphrase: How come you guys never made money? I saw you fifty times, but never bought your albums. Money's important. Also, you guys never endorsed politicians, which is cool because it lets the few right-wingers like me and Anne Coulter the opportunity to have some fun outside of our actual jobs of helping destroy the very principles upon which you and your following seem to strive. I'll just sum everything up by frequently using the term 'Libertarian'. On the lighter side, I'll give the bastard credit for conducting a decent interview. Maybe he should stick to entertainment instead of politics.p.s.Right-wing Deadheads freek me out.peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timouse Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 "...when he came to Washington to talk about his memoir, Searching for the Sound, I interviewed him, unapologetically, as a fan."what? this really makes me wonder about my whole take on the music of the dead and the people it inspires. carlson is the proto right wing pundit nitwit, maybe right wing nitwit deadheads are a more real phenomenon than i thought. anne coulter claims to be a deadhead, and ho check out rec.music.gdead sometime, there are a considerable population of right wingers there too...maybe these are the people who ate the brown acid?

MarcO Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 The whole ideology behind the Dead is not the sole possession of leftist "hippies". Scratch the surface and you'll find Hells Angels, high ranking politicians, good 'ole boy rednecks and religious zealots whom all found something to take from the whole experience. It's also the end result of playing for 30 years on the road.Tucker is still a dick though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 I was looking for MarcO's quote..how the Dead and veggie burritos met is a mystery to me, not that there's anythign wrong with a holistic lifestyle but why did people think a hard-drugging, ice-cream eating fat man was the saviour of the vegans that loved him so?

Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Thinking of right-wing deadheads, how about Tipper and Al Gore? I've never quite sorted that one out either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
