There sure are a lot of people out there who MUST get in the last word
on EVERYTHING.  Re: Deadheads vs. Solidarity, to Rich Rosen:  Yeah,
you're right, there's no way that one can submit a valid comparison,
there just isn't the commitment borne of pure persecution in our
suburban lounge culture to compare with the absolute scrapping that such
groups as Solidarity must accomplish to even survive as an entity.

The Greatful Dead make good music, they've been doing so for many, many
years, they offer substance with the rhythms, which have earned them
many fans.  Putting deep political meaning into the Deadhead org. much
beyond the rock n' roll, entertainment side of things seems to me to
become the opinion of the individuals, moreso than a true reflection of
ALL the members of this admittably varied group of people.  Watching the
Dead personnel go through life, and seeing how they handle situations,
provides inspiration to many, but it still boils down that the MUSIC
brings us together,  no matter how old we are or wish we were.

See you all at Irvine Meadows Saturday night!
