Getting on the Bus with Dave: Jerry’s Gear, an Autograph Story, and a Deadhead Origin Tale
Manage episode 487027552 series 3669962
In this debut episode, I sit down with my longtime friend—and our show’s producer—Dave, to talk about how he got on the bus, why Jerry Garcia’s guitar tone still captivates him, and what makes the Grateful Dead more than just a band. We break down some of Jerry’s legendary gear, including his effects and tone from the later years, and we take a few side trips into our own concert-going history, including how he got Jerry Garcia's autograph.
This one sets the tone for what this podcast is all about: discovery, curiosity, and deep appreciation for the music, the moments, and the people we’ve met along the way.
