i can't speak for deadheads because i never was one, but from what i know they were pretty serious about the music...afterall, they were a BAND (forget the modern day definition).  i don't think the it was a culture 1, music 2 type thing at all.  perhaps the culture is all some people got into, but there is some brilliant music and i think you ought to give them a little more credit, even if its not your cup of tea :smile:

I don't really understand either.
I listen to underground black metal, death metal, etc. 90% of what I listen to comes from Europe.
Is G.D. even considered mainstream?? I seriously know nothing about them at all.


sweden is where the best metal is bred.

yeah, i don't really get the dead either.  though, i've never really
liked the "happy," upbeat music.  the angry but strangely depressing
stuff is what i like the most.

good or bad, i don't know.

It's really more about the culture than the music.

Even some die-hard Dead heads will agree that the music is mediocre at best. There are plenty of much better bands.
However, there's no better culture than Greatful Dead culture. If you don't like the music when you first hear it, especially
the studio stuff, you probably never will. So be it. But go to a Dead show and drop acid and then say you didn't have one of the
best times of your life.

I'm no dead head, far from it, and I've never had the experience I just mentioned either, but I know what it's all about. LOVE.:heart:


umm no..

maybe some college kids went for the party and not the music. But no hardcore deadhead would say the music is mediocre :crazy: There are plenty of bands with a following similar to the dead right now yet they are not even fucking close to selling out huge stadiums like the dead could do.

You said a following like the Dead! These bands are so obscure it's rediculous.
How can you compare the Dead community and culture to these relatively teeny tiny groups?

And..


If you want to compare...

The Rolling Stones

AC/DC

Jimmy Buffet

THESE have a folowing slightly similar to the Dead. Much moreso than the bands you mentioned.

you can compare the bands, maybe not the scene, but there are bands out there right now making just as much history as the dead made...just fewer folks readily able to admit it.

I didn't really get it either, until I listened to Live Dead on 5 sugarcubes of LSD.

Clich?? Maybe, but all clich?s are based on truth...
