NEMD The Grateful Thread

Last summer, I was able to obtain a large amount of psilocyben cubensis, and I spent many days in a very trippy state. I have always loved the Grateful Dead, and as we all know, the music typically goes pretty well with psychedelics. Anyways, there I was, jamming to Althea. It is my favorite - but as I sat there listening, drifting into a trippy state of colors, heightened senses and the lot- I noticed that Jerry was not singing the lyrics to Althea. Instead, he was speaking to me- but I couldn't hold on to what he was saying. It was insane how the drug had actually made my reality shift- thus leading the the song sounding completely different. I looked up at my husband, stunned and said "This is the song Althea, but I am not hearing Jerry sing the lyrics. It is like I can hear him talking directly to me and it's freaking me out." My husband looked at me, shaking his head and suggested going outside.

They are aweful, maybe I need to start using illegal drugs then find out how great they are.

Old joke but who cares: What does a Dead head say when they are listening to the Grateful dead and they sober up?

answer): This band sucks!!
 
Grateful Dead - Wharf Rat [1971]



Old man down, way down down, down by the docks of the city
Blind and dirty, asked me for a dime, a dime for a cup of coffee
I got no dime but I got some time to hear his story
My name is August West, and I love my Pearly Baker best, more than my wine
More than my wine, more than my maker, though he's no friend of mine
Everyone said, I'd come to no good, I knew I would pearly, believe them
Half of my life, I spent doing time for some other fucker's crime
The other half found me stumbling 'round drunk on burgundy wine
But I'll get back on my feet again someday
The good lord willing, if he says I may
I know that the life I'm living's no good
I'll get a new start, live the life I should
I'll get up and fly away, I'll get up and fly away, fly away
"Pearly's been true, true to me, true to my dying day," he said
I said to him, I said to him, "I'm sure she's been..."
I said to him, "I'm sure she's been true to you."
Got up and wandered, wandered downtown, nowhere to go but just hang around
I've got a girl, named Bonnie Lee, I know that girl's been true to me.
I know she's been, I'm sure she's been true to me.

maybe he shaked his head because u must be looking too hot to handle!
 


I drove down from Los Angeles alone to see this show, said hi to some friends in the parking lot, and spent most of the concert dancing with a girl I hooked up with. Good clean fun. I remember Satisfaction's groove was so heavy people were going nuts!
 
I had a horrifying incident when I was an adolescent, there was a store that was like the only head shop my mom would take me to. God knows why, she wouldn't let me smoke weed. I thought i had to wear shitty band tees like phish and shit lol I was not serious I got rid of that.
