Fact: I’m a Deadhead.

Fact: I’m very interested in politics.

Fact: I’m a big supporter of Barack Obama (you should be too!)

So when the surviving members of the Grateful Dead get together to play a benefit for Barack Obama, I pay attention. Attending wasn’t in the cards but, thanks to their generous taping policy, we can listen right now, from home.

Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzmann, Mickey Hart
