Thanks for your thoughts you guys, nothing like free psychiatric help. You helped me to remember how in my younger days I used to like that song a lot and didn't think twice about the lyrics. I still think it's a catchy tune and will play it on guitar, I just have to change the lyrics in the chorus from Devil to Jesus or Jerry or something so I don't feel, from my point of view, that I'm praising something I shouldn't be. God bless you all for putting up with me.

I came across kind of harsh, sorry about that. What you said just hit a nerve in me. I work with emotionally disturbed children, a good portion who have been abused so I have some pretty deep feelings about this whole topic. I see this pain every day. And though I do recognize and study the dark side in the world, I look for light and joy too. Peace.

Do not want to downplay the kidnapping and murder of a little girl, I have a 5 year old daughter myself so that kind of news hits me hard. But i don't think its fair to accuse Bob Weir of supporting child murderers because he played FOTD.

sorry you feel that way

It was not my intention to make people think I was accusing Bobby of anything and if I had even the slightest belief that might be true I would not be here. I wish I had phrased things differently. I was more pissed that they played it while the Persuasions were there but who knows, maybe one of them requested it. My little hissy fit got the best of me but I've learned to loosen up, hell, I'd bet Bobby would play that song if the Pope was at the show.

Its all good. I probably totally mis-understood your post but the only reason I mentioned anything at all is because it sounded like an accusation -
"Do you guys approve of that sort of thing? Are child murderers your friend? That's what that song says. Maybe they're just fine musicians but not very bright. When you sing "without love in the dream it'll never come true" do you mean it?"
I apologize for taking your comment the wrong way. Peace be with you...

I'm sorry I got angry and lost my cool over a song, stuff happens. Ratdog has inspired and impressed me a lot the last two years. I'm so glad I saw the Eugene and Jacksonville shows and was up front the whole time. Those shows will long stay in my memory. Kenny, I love what you've added to the music. I saw John Klemmer twice! Once as a teenager at the bandshell in Central Park and in L.A. at some big high-rise hotel in my early twenties. Mark, I've been impressed with your guitar work and style. Robyn, Jay, Jeff, you guys rock! And thank you, Bob.

Went to the 10/24 Dog show at the beacon, great energy, I looked on archive.org and see all the shows except for that one. Are they planning a special release for this specific show? Or does anyone know where I can listen to it? Thanks
