I've seen some news reports about the Tea Party rally in Nevada, where
they want to get rid of Harry Reid.
The news people say hardly any there were locals, and they're following
Sarah Palin around.
You always see a lot of RV's and motor homes in the background.
Is Sarah Palin the new Jerry Garcia?
I don't know much about the deadhead crowd. Seemed they were druggies.
Never cared for that kind of music, being a country fan.
The Tea Party folks look pretty clean cut, but out of shape.
Most are overweight or obese. Look like typical retired folks, or desk
jockeys.
I'm guessing they use a lot of prescription drugs, mostly paid for by
Medicare. Stuff for high blood pressure, diabetes, penis stiffening,
etc.
But they sure don't seem like deadheads. I don't count when they're
talking. Just appearances.
Anybody here a Tea Party member?
Anybody a former deadhead?
I'd like to hear some comparisons.
I'm interested in cultural phenomena, is why I ask.

It's all bs. The only one that want to kee[ Reid are a hand full of
Developers and Lawyers.
The busing in thing seems to be so organized by both sides there must be
an instant rally, for rent outfit.

You might have benefited from the experience, regardless of whether
you liked the music.

I liked the Dead twice as much as Looking Glass. The Dead had 2 songs
I liked. *;-)- Hide quoted text -

- Show quoted text -

Well, Looking Glass was a far bit better than "Double" with their one
hit loser "The Captain of her heart"

The only song I actually liked by the greatful dead was "Friend of the
devil"

Not even. Looking Glass was a 1970's one-hit-wonder ("Brandy") band out of
New Jersey. Double was a 1980's one-hit-wonder ("The Captain of Her Heart")
band from Switzerland.

I liked the Dead. Not all songs were great, but they put on a good show. I
remember them playing for free out in the Panhandle of Golden Gate Park,
years before they were real famous. I worked not that far from the
Haight-Ashbury area and went to school out near GG park.

The only difference being the acid that Garcia's fans ingested being
manufactured naturally in the brains of Palin's followers.

Out of minds, too.

Barcoloungers, TV trays and Fox News.

Don't you strip funding from medicare to pay for that damned
socialized medicine!!!

Anybody here a Tea Party member?

Scotty, BAR, Canuck, (the real) Jim, Dan (Larry, Rob, Margaret)
Krueger, Herring when he's ambulatory, Jack Mehoff, and a host of
others. Actually a combination of birthers, deathers and teabaggers.

Anybody a former deadhead?

Deadheads could dance like hippies. Teabaggers look like they have a
horrific case of hemorrhoids.
