Not sure if I missed a discussion about this movie, but absolutely worth the time. It was produced by Martin Scorcese and just released on Amazon Prime. It is a 4 hour documentary about the Dead with some fantastic footage that has never been seen. The itvhas ups and downs, happy moments and sadness, and impressive cinematography. A must see for Deadheads and casual fans alike.

Yeah i saw it. I believe it was closer to six hours. Six episodes around 50 minutes each. Definately some impressive old footage. The Al Franken part was pretty funny. The ending was pretty depressing as I expected. The weight Jerry carried was immense. If only he had agreed to something like WSP decided on with the decreased shows. He just couldnt bear to let people down.

For sure worth watching. Four hours is correct. If you're seeing any of the shows, there could hardly be a better primer. I'll be viewing it again before the ones I hit.

I finished it this week. Really good. Not a ton of new information, but nice to have it all in one place and well made. Definitely check it out if you haven't seen it.

Nick started watching it last night and really enjoyed it (even though he is not a GD fan- he has respect for them as artists).

Watched the first 3 episodes so far, definitely is well done. Got a little more male frontal nudity in that 3rd one that I was bargaining for, but enjoyed it nonetheless.

Veneta, if I'm not mistaken. Everyone was naked.

Pretty infamous pole on a pole and sun burnt hooter action at Veneta.
This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.
What happens if I take both?

Episode 4 was my favorite so far by a lot, love all the stuff about Owlsley and the Wall of Sound.
Also a little surprised how much they directly talk about drugs.

Hoping the sound comes through okay. I watched the first few minutes just to make sure I can get the digital sound working from the Amazon stick to the surround sound receiver. It works! But, I have to use the optical connection, which means I have to physically switch the cable.
No big deal this once, but I would hate to have to do that on a regular basis.

Same here Donna. We're on vacation and we don't want to subject our non-deadheads to 4 hrs of an unappreciated viewing, sooo, I 'm totally looking forward to binge watching when we get home.

thelizard and I took our son to his first festival to see the Grateful Dead at Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh, PA on June 30, 1995. He was only 5 years old. Don't worry - we stayed mostly sober. We could never have imagined then that we be dragging him to a local memorial for Jerry in South Richmond, VA within a few months to memorialize Jerry and celebrate his life. We took him along with us to a few Ratdog shows and some festivals during his teen years - mostly to Algood. He's attended every LOCKN' festival - the first with his dad only, thelizard, and the last 3 years we've all gone together. I couldn't go the first year due to illness, ,though I bought the tickets. but we'll all be there again this year.
