A little "this-n-that" on a vintage Martin
Yea, I've seen this guy. In fact, he could have been one of my roomates in college when I lived in Santa Barbara. Probably dealt a little weed and listened to a lot of Grateful Dead and Poco.
The Grateful Dead
FYI, the song is "New Speedway Boogie", and it was written by the Dead about the Altamont Free Concert and intended as an indictment of both the concert itself (the Grateful Dead were supposed to play the show, but cancelled and left after the violence at the concert increased, specifically after Marty Balin of Jefferson Airplane was knocked unconscious by a Hells Angels "security guard"; Jerry Garcia reportedly spent part of the show hiding under a trailer) and a subsequent article about the concert by rock critic Ralph J. Gleason. The lyrics take on a lot more meaning when you have that in mind: "Please don't dominate the rap Jack (Ralph) / if you got nothing new to say", "Now I don't know but I been told / in the heat of the sun a man died of cold", and "One way or another / this darkness got to give".
Can anyone tell I'm a (formerly even "grater") Grateful Dead fan?
