Grateful Dead

dead.net the official site

you might want to seek out a Hunter song called "When a Man Loves a Woman." Not the same as the Percy Sledge song, which is also awesome of course. It is sweet and heartfelt. I think it's on "Liberty."

Thanks for the responses. I love "They Love Each Other" and it'll find a spot somewhere in the wedding/reception. cosmicbadger: lol @ inlaws! I'm embarrassed to admit, I haven't listen to any Hunter songs that were not performed by the dead... :( But! I will remedy that w/in the day! I'm actually looking for Wedding Vows... Words to be spoken by me, to her, during the ceremony. I can find pages upon pages upon pages of wedding vows on the net or via a book store. I was really hoping that somewhere in some time past Hunter had written vows.. Something a bit more special that held true to his style.... If anyone runs across something fitting please shot me a line. Mean while I'm going to browse the forum and see who is who and which witch is which.

Hello Everyone !I hope to meet up with some other fans & get to know you all. I work at a casino where Phil & Bobby have both blessed us with their music. Peace & Love , daisy

Hi Paul The one that gets me is Robert Hunter's 'Maybe she's a Bluebird' from Tales of the Great Rum Runners. Never recorded by the Dead (happy to be be corrected on that), but the sweetest words, if perhaps a little wistful for a wedding. All of my fancy All of my dreams come true Just to be here with you For the last dream All of my life Starts to make sense now I think I see what it means When I was a beggar When I was a thief When I was caught up Was you that brought relief Sometimes you amaze me Sometimes make me crazy Maybe you're a bluebird That will never fly away Not fly away, no Not fly away Maybe you're a bluebird Who will never fly away Of course the new in-laws may not be too impressed with the confession that you were a beggar and a thief! best wishes to you both

I wanted that to be our wedding song, I was shot down though, Although when the wedding party was introduced, she had the dj play truckin. That was really cool.

I'd start there.

Hi all, I'm a newbie here but a long time Head. My Lady and I will be tying the knot in November and I am on the wedding vow hunt. I've been hoping to run across some lyrical lines from Robert Hunter that express my love in a Grateful Way. If anyone has ran across something that may fit the bill, please guide me. Many thanks in advance, Paul

I found San Jose on the map of the united states. Which is right next to Palo Alto and Stanford California. Jerry Garcia's father name is Jose. I so happened to pick this name because a while back in the third grade - during recess - coming down the stairs I said,"I am one of the strong ones" to one of three girls. Also my teacher has the same last of one of the drummers.

Deadhead from Melbourne, Australia. I live, breathe and eat the Grateful Dead - but my favorite era would have to be '68-'69. Bobby is probably my fave, too... I'd love to catch him in concert someday. Always up for a chat, recommendations, or trading. Mark
