Wow. Why? I mean I didn't think his music was that great or anything but it wasn't that bad. Britney Spears, now that's bad and it might call for extreme measures.

The freak shows the concerts always turned out to be were a scream.

I live across the street from Seattle Center. Every year the Dead would come and give three days worth of concerts and all the parking lots in the area would become campgrounds for hoards of the most useless and stupid losers the United States has to offer.

I'd sit in my window, looking at the hundreds of rejects in the parking lot across the street, smoking dope, dumping patchouli on themselves, and half-assed playing various instruments - and think to myself, "You know, you could drop a bomb over there without risking any loss at all to the human race. Sure, you'd kill a bunch of people, but nothing of value would be gone".

Of all the crowds that congregate at Seattle Center, including such gems at Metallica fans, the most pathetic and irritating of them all were the Deadheads.  Not only that but they - the ultra liberal, peacenik, environmentalist freaks - left the biggest messes in the neighborhood of any group.  No other group littered and trashed their surroundings like them.  THEY were the biggest litterbugs.  They were also the most obnoxious crowd.  And you can take my judgment of crowds as gospel:  I've lived in that same spot for 11 years.

So when Garcia died the first thing that popped into my mind was "YES! YES! YES!  I NEVER HAVE TO DEAL WITH THOSE SMELLY ****ERS AGAIN!!!!!!!"
