No more time
to tell how
Now is the time past believing
Eight-sided whispering hallelujah hat rack Coming Soon
THE PURPLE SAGE STORY by Uncle John Bob Weir turns to me, looks me in the eyes, and elucidates "My band is red, Garcia´s band is blue, and The Grateful Dead are purple."

"Fill a need and find it.” "Total invention: something which fills a need which does not yet exist. After Leonardo DaVinci´s invention of the parachute, the first airplane was as good as on the wing." --Robert Hunter "A good way to invent the future is to predict it." --John Perry Barlow

The first time I am backstage with the Jerry Garcia Band, I’m sitting at the main round table listening to Jerry Garcia carry on a half dozen lively conversations at the same time. He is astutely following each one and contributes brilliant observations, upbeat, with a good deal of laughter. I finally capture his attention with my eyes and interject a question, "Have you seen the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind?" I ask him, not realizing he had a cameo in the film. He immediately replies, "Im not answering anymore questions until we find out who you are." There is suddenly silence in the room. And I introduce myself as "Uncle John" "That improves things considerably," Jerry Garcia responds, lifting his eyebrows with a twinkle, and smiles, and the banter in the room resumes.

How sweet the sound with delicious food & festive smiles in friendship gatherings
Terrapin Crossroads b y Uncle John23 Chapters
-1- May 2012
The
darkness of the hour brings us to the moment of the dawn of Terrapin. On Sunday
there is a “ring of fire”, a solar eclipse of a new moon blocking the sun. Phil
Lesh & friends gather together at Terrapin Crossroads for a night of free music.
On Tuesday, there is a rare blackout in northern San Rafael, that is a Godsend
to me and others to attend this night of free music. Patrons listen, artists
draw, and workers are in sync, while the musicians, Phil Lesh, John Kadlecik and
Jon Graboff are lifting the spirit of everyone in this great atmosphere. The
night begins with a wine tasting. Around 9pm Phil & Company are playing in the
bar and singing together on tunes we all find familiar. How sweet it is!
“Inspiration move me brightly

Snapshot of our solar system captured by Voyager 1, 1st man-made machine to fly into interstellar space
Have You Seen The Stars Tonight? I'm sitting at a table directly across from Paul Kantner of the Jefferson Starship & Jefferson Airplane. He's reading the Chronicle and I'm playing one of the puzzle mazes. Paul's profile is facing me and he looks just like an alien with pins sticking out of his ears. I probably look the same to him because we are at an acupuncture clinic and I engage his attention and bring up my musical science fiction play, "RAINDANCE". In the play, extraterrestrial time travelers, seven sirens, intercept the Voyager 1 and capture the Golden Record and listen to it, including Chuck Berry's song "Johnny B. Goode", and when they arrive on Earth they become seven gypsy women who say in unison, "Take us to your leader, Johnny B. Goode". Paul and I talk about Jerry Garcia's love for science fiction, Blows Against The Empire, and Sirens Of Titan.
