I am a Grateful Dead fan so it is a sad day.

He left his mark.

Always loved his voice. He was a great rhythm guitar player. Bob and Jerry were magic.

I was never a fan of theirs to say but I certainly hate to hear of his passing. I feel badly for all of his fans, friends and family.


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

It would take my lifetime to thank him and the rest of the GD for all they gave me.
RIP Bobby.
Fare the well.

Glad you showed up to provide a tribute.

For all those that loved the music not much more can be said.

He left a mark on many. Play a song and feel good that you around to hear it.

They certainly had a rabid fan base. I once met a guy who told me he spent a few years in the 70s following them around, making money to support himself by selling small stone carvings outside their shows. He grew up a rock hound.

I sold grilled cheese, beer and soda, and various ‘other’ things to stay on tour. It often required leaving before the encore so I could get set up for the waves of folks leaving the show. I missed a few songs over the years but doing so made it so I could make it to the next show… and the next show… and the next show.
I was at my poorest, but I was never without a smile.
