bouche Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 the branding of this as JGB will forever drive me nutz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 I'm quite a big JGB fan, but who is this "Jerry" person you speak of? There's no one in the band by that name, is there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 I just went to that link of yours, Brad.Now, that's just silly. (I'm sure glad I saw the real JGB, back when "JG" was still around.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chameleon Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Why the JGB s=thing still? I mean I love Melvin Seals. Great player. But put the JGB to bed already it's like 10yrs+ since Garcia died. I'd much rather go see a Melvin Seals band show. Fo' real! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 I wonder Who is going to the Private Party in Whistler.I've been working on that conundrum for more than a month.

p.p. Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Why the JGB s=thing still? I mean I love Melvin Seals. Great player. But put the JGB to bed already it's like 10yrs+ since Garcia died.I'd much rather go see a Melvin Seals band show.Not me. I'm so not bored of Jerry Garcia Band, nor do I mind that Melvin uses JGB as the name, although he should call it "Melvin Seals and the music of JGB". Whatever! Considering all the time Melvin spent with the band and that now he probably gets no royalties from it, for him to cash in a bit and provide me with some of my favourite tunes??? Again... whatever!So PLEASE Stone Mtn. PLEASE let me know if you find anything out 'cause I'd love to go. I sent Deke a message to see if he knows anything and I'm waiting to hear back.Peace!

I plan to be one of those people; if I can figure out where the event will be.Found it. I can't spill the beans right now, but I know where this is happening tonight. It is well-known that I would like an invitation, but I'm not holding my breath. (I may not even go anyway, for entirely unrelated family reasons, but If I'm invited, well, probably...)I'll post the details tomorrow. I'd be breaking my confidence from someone else if I told about this now. (Sorry p.p.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Sooooo....As expected the invitation never came, and I spent last night at home. I suppose there's now no harm in spreading this.Apparently, there is this group of American billionaires who fly to various ski resorts around the world, and party together. They spend hundreds of thousands on parties while they're at each of these places, and last night it was Whisler. JGB played their private party at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler in the Ballroom. (A friend of mine did the photos, and he had planned to case out the scene, and see if it would be possible to get me in at the last minute. Apparently, it wasn't possible.)So, too little; too late ... there ya go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 There is actually more to this story, now. Apparently JGB had nowhere to be for five days after the show I mentioned above. They told a friend of mine that if someone could set up a gig for them to cover their expenses, they’d love to stay in Whistler for a few days.I arranged for another friend to call the owner of a local bar/musical venue. She knew him quite well, which is why I had her call, instead of me. Perhaps she didn’t explain very well, but the reply was, “No thanks. I already have a Grateful Dead cover band scheduled for next week.â€Some people just don’t get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boogieknight Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 how is JGB any different then say, DSO or any other dead cover band for that matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 They probably don't have a guitarist that sounds remotely like Jerry, if the Dead themselves are any indication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
