The epitome of handling insane fame with style and class, and an underrated guitar player(Garcia always sad the Weir was more accomplished than he). A man of great humor and kindness.

Thank you, sir, for a lifetime of inspiration and profound entertainment. Long may you live!
a group of us, on peyote, had little to share with a group on marijuana

the marijuana smokers were discussing questions of the utmost profundity and we were sticking our fingers in our navels & giggling

Happy b-day. Bobby.

Hope you get well soon.

So you got any info on whats happening with him? I've thought he hasn't looked well at all for the last 10 years or so, aged fast even by rock star standards.

Just rumors.  Some say its a back problem, others that it's a substance abuse problem maybe caused by pain meds.

I'm guessing you have seen the vid of Bobby taking a tumble while performing awhile back?

I did see that, a slow motion fall. Back problems are really tough for a musician. A guy like my who moves his own gear is really vulnerable.

The press release when he canceled the tour sounded a lot like a politician caught with a crack pipe.

wait...which other politician's been caught with his crack pipe?

One rumor has it that Bobby got a bit fresh with a waitress in Nevada before a show and ended up canceling the gig and leaving the state post haste.

Robin Ford might qualify as a politician caught with his crack pipe out.....
