I'm assuming this is directed at me right? haha\n\nYes I'm a Buddhist and yes I smoke pot. I dont really see a problem with it but I see where youre coming from and other people have asked me that. I smoke pot to help with my meditation most of the time. It helps me make me thinking much clearer. So, based on that I dont think theres a problem with it. But, as you implied, some people do think its against what the Buddha taught. However, the way I interpret it, when the Buddha said to "avoid mind altering substances that cloud the mind", I believe he just meant alcohol since that was the only mind-altering substance he knew of. The Buddha had never heard of marijuana, so how could he have forbidden its use? Ive stopped drinking alcohol since my conversion, because it really does cloud the mind, but pot, if used right doesnt cloud the mind, it clears it in a way. Hope that clears it up for you. Anything else feel free to ask.\n\n\nPeace

The Grateful Dead started playing it years ago, its true it was written by Petty/Hardin, not Tom, sorry. What was really cool at a show was listening to them do it similar to Buddy Holly as far as the chorus, but also adding the Grateful Dead flavorful groove to it. Slowing it down just enough, so with audience participation voices and clapping, it proved to be very monumental. Then in later years transitioning from Throwing stones into NFA, keeping that groove from throwing towards the end, leaving enough anticipation and listening for the opening chords of NFA. It was sweeter than the scent of patchouli. Look up some versions of the song live, my favorite year is 78' for many songs. 10/17/78 at winterland is a great show if you can get a hold of it, first "world to to give" I dont think Ive ever heard it on the radio except the dead hour. Good stuff!!\nPeace

-In addition to the Grateful Dead (who frequently toured for long periods), Garcia had numerous side projects, the most notable being the Jerry Garcia Band. He was also involved with various acoustic projects such as Old and in the Way and other bluegrass bands, including collaborations with noted bluegrass mandolinist David Grisman (the documentary film "Grateful Dawg" chronicles the deep, long-term friendship between Garcia and Grisman). Other groups of which Garcia was a member at one time or another include the Black Mountain Boys [1], Legion of Mary [2], Reconstruction, and the Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band. Jerry Garcia was also an appreciative fan of jazz artists and improvisation: he played with jazz keyboardists Merl Saunders and Howard Wales for many years in various groups and jam sessions, and he appeared on saxophonist Ornette Coleman's 1988 album, Virgin Beauty.\n\nHaving studied art at the San Francisco Art Institute, Garcia made a second career out of painting. A series of neckties based on those paintings has been quite lucrative. The popularity of the ties might be attributed to their wild patterns and bright colors. Even in 2005, ten years after Garcia's death, new styles and designs continue to be sold at high-end men's stores and department stores.

There are several contenders - \nJimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Keith Moon..... and those are just the DEAD ones!\n\nI think Keith Richards (and probably Ozzie Osbourn) would be pretty much up there with these guys - and should get extra points for actually having survived so far!

Motorhead is great drinking music.  Judas Priest tends to fit the mood for me as well.

I absolutely love most of the bands that played Woodstock. Janis Joplin and Jefferson Airplane being among my favorites. Soundgarden, STP, RHCP, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, are all good. There were others too that were good. I have to agree with you about Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, Click Five, etc. I don't know where rock is going but it needs to come back. They lack substance and they whine a lot. I don't like that at all. I'm hoping that once again something new will come out that will put those bands to shame much like "grunge" did to hair metal
