I know the bassist/keyboard player for Phil's band. Personally. For like, 35 years. He is a professor teaching music at Chico State. And yes, even though he invites me to shows, I don't go because...well, I never got into that kind of music either, even when Jerry was alive.

But my friend is a really fun guy to hang out with, him and I can quote entire passages of Firesign Theatre. Passers by wonder what we're talking about.

And I own a few ties sold under the "Garcia" brand name. They're wicked cool.
