Happy Warlocks Days to all who celebrate! For those of you wondering, yes, the experience was as amazing as you might think. I saw 116 Dead shows over the course of 13 years, and these are hands down the best of the lot. And they still hold up, too. Have a listen today. You won't regret it.

Lotus by Santana. There's more than 10-facets to it, and you can barely get them all into a photo. The music is insane to boot.

A photo you took that brings you inner peace
Tiergarten, Berlin, Germany. A lush green forest with a path flowing through it. Just off the path sits an old wooden school chair with a log that could be used as a footrest. I half-expect to see an elf or woodland creature sitting on it, reading a book.

RFK '89 anniversary show is on tap for today. Very solid run. 1989 is often overlooked by the majesty that was 1990, but I would say it was right up there with it.
Album cover for Grateful Dead RFK 1989 live album, July 12 & 13, 1989. Shows a long shot of the outside of the stadium in a bed of roses, with a rainbow soaring overhead. A skeleton arm rises up to the sky from within, a single red rose in its hand
