when I was younger I spent two summers during college break following the grateful dead for about 20 shows. It was a crazy and super exciting time in my life.

Was this in 1965 when the band was formed?

 No when the band was formed in 65 they were known as the warlocks. They basically played shows in San Francisco for the Ken Kesey acid parties in the early years. No this was the late 80s.

I see. Were you a hippie?

I guess I was. I had a lot of friends that went with us. It was a carnival like atmosphere. And a lot of fun.
