is Owsley really dead?
    #14114225 - 03/13/11 01:23 PM (12 years, 10 months ago)

according to this article he died in a car crash yesterday, but i cant find any more info. hopefully this isn't true but if it it RIP.

http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/wxel/news.newsmain/article/0/0/1774857/National/Psychedelic.icon.Owsley.Stanley.dies.in.Australia

and apparently phil lesh posted this on further.net but i cant get to the website right now to confirm.

Fare thee well, Bear

I received a text in the middle of last night that Bear Stanley has died in a car accident in Australia. Bear, for me, was a true kindred spirit; when we first met, it was as if I had met a long-lost brother from another lifetime. I am heartbroken and devastated at his passing.

He was a friend, a brother, an inspiration, and our patron at the very beginning of our creative lives. We owe him more than what can be counted or added up- his was a mind that refused to accept limits, and he reinforced in us that striving for the infinite, the refusal to accept the status quo, that has informed so much of our work.

He never gave up his quest for pushing the limits of whatever he was working on. We had just been discussing his concept of point-source sound reinforcement in relation to a new project of mine, and his vision incorporated the latest developments in technology and perceptual research.

My heart goes out to his family, for whom he had such love and pride- his wife Sheilah, his children, grand-children, and great-grandchildren- who have lost their patriarch.

A mind like Bear’s appears very rarely, and it’s been my privilege and honor to have known and loved two such minds- Jerry and Bear. I always laugh when I think about what Jerry once said about Bear: There’s nothing wrong with Bear that several billion fewer brain cells wouldn't fix.

I am eternally grateful for all of the gifts that Bear brought to the scene and to the music.
Fare you well; I love you more than words can tell.

- Phil

This is sad.

Oh Owsley can you hear me now?



What a kick ass dude.

Credit this guy for the acid wave at Monterey, and the Wall of Sound that the Grateful Dead employed.

Not sure if Bear is dead or not... But here is the best song ever written about him!



EDIT: Damn, he is dead. Here's a song from Bear's Choice too:
(It's "Wake Up Little Susie".)

Please please please..I want this to be true so badly. You know, I never heard exactly what the deal was with this car crash. I never heard if he crashed into another car, ran off the road or what. It is a little bit fishy.

Yeah bullshit it's a little fishy :lol:

The man had a family that misses him very much.

He's dead folks. At 72. Good run.
