They got Jerry too.

I visited Jim Morrison’s grave, just a couple of years ago. He’s buried near to Oscar Wilde, Edith Piaf and Molière…

Well, they have two of the Grateful DEAD so….

If you believe in forever

Then life is just a one-night stand

If there’s a rock n’ roll heaven

Well you know they’ve got a hell of a band, band, band

- Righteous Brothers

Stephen King short story in Nightmares and Dreamscapes “You Know They Have a Hell of a Band!” deals with this subject.

Gershwin, Joplin, Mozart dueling pianos.

Cobain had no interest in Heaven, as he had already been in Nirvana.

I wonder if I’ll be able to buy a VW bus for $500 in the afterlife.

Live-Dead – one of the best live albums put out in the 60’s

Stevie Ray Vaughn, Gary Morris…

They have three out of five Wilburys. When Dylan arrives they’ll probably do a reunion album, if they can talk George Martin into filling Jeff Lynne’s spot as producer.

Live Dead! Yes, I’m in.

If the performances are “live” in the sense of “happening right here, right now; not recordings,” how can they be analog? A sincere question — I won’t be surprised if “analog” has meanings I’m unaware of.

“Live-on-cloud”

Early on in that period, and before, concerts were held in small clubs and auditoriums where you could see the performers up close, not on TV.

If he’s dead, a ghost, how does he know about digital and analog? Must not have taken the brown acid. :)

When Jerry Garcia died, the headline was ‘Head Dead Head Dead’

The two Beatles unfortunately never got along in life. John was apparently jealous of George’s writing talent so rarely let any of his songs be featured. Wonder how they get along now..´

And all 4 original Ramones… It’s not bad if you think this way.

Live After Death.

Charlie Watts too, but they’ll never get Keith Richards.
