"Trixie Garcia had her first psychedelic experience when she was one and a half. A bag of mushrooms had been left sitting out. Trixie's parents -- the late Grateful Dead singer Jerry Garcia and the prototypical hippie chick Mountain Girl -- were not particularly alarmed. "My mom was like, 'Oh, it made you more communicative!' " says Trixie, now thirty and a painter living in the Bay Area. 'Most of the kids in the scene had some early dosing incident. My sister got into some acid-spiked orange juice.'"

She also talks about her high school buddy Tupac Shakur. Once, she threw a party where things got stolen along with a keyboard being thrown out of a window, etc.. She went through a rebellious rap phase, which Jerry and Mountain Girl hated. Interesting article. She's the only one I read about.

At any rate, the house ended up trashed - things stolen, keyboards thrown out of the windows. "My poor dad," Trixie says, laughing. "He was so nonconfrontational. Such a pushover. All the did, he left a note the next time he went on tour: 'Dear Trixie, Please don't have a party with more than a thousand people."

I don't know how many kids he has. Ken Kesey also has a kid with Moutain Girl, though.

Phumfeinz: It's from the "Sgt. Pepper" sessions. It's George's.

Trixie is the girl in the middle in the picture below.
