Location: NJ | TwoManGroup only plays ONE Dead song.
(and usually ONLY if held at gunpoint . . or cleavage . .)
These guys appear to be from Albany, NY.
That's about 3 hours from me (and about 5 from Al). |

Grateful Dud Same here, Dave. I liked a couple songs on "Terrapin Station", but that was about it. |

Location: SE Michigan | I agree with Tommy M. I recently watched a PBS special titled "Grateful Dead - Closing of Winterland". Quite honestly I was underwhelmed. It was all I could stand to watch the entire concert.
I have noticed that when I go back and listen to a lot of the late-60s early-70s music that I thought was incredible at the time, I wonder what the heck I saw in it. I mean how long can you sit and listen to 10 minute guitar solos that run over and over and over the same weary scales.
But that being said, I am fond of a lot of the Grateful Dead's more folky stuff. |

That's about 3 hours from me (and about 5 from Al). Two things...
To play a Dead cover requires, as Cliff said, mass amounts of clevage.
For me to drive three hours to anything, it'd better have Golden Arches at the end of the trip. |
