Just heard Phil Lesh passed away.
Yeah, I heard it earlier today.
I have an odd memory. The California company I worked for had a couple of gatherings at Terrapin Crossroads, a food-and-music venue in San Rafael. The restaurant was founded by Phil Lesh, and on occasion, patrons were treated to free performances of Phil Lesh & Friends. I was there one such night. It was very cool having (good) food only feet away from a Grateful Dead legend.
R. I. P.
He will be missed, one of the greatest musicians of my generation.
Sad news, RIP
thanks for all the bass bombs, Phil
RIP
26 years on a liver transplant is not too bad.
Wow! That is something !Quote:

When Charlie Watts passed, I was destroyed. Honestly, it was like losing an uncle to me.
Phil... I'm a late born Dead fan and I love Bob's new iterations of the band. Dead & Co. particularly. But I've always missed Phil in the mix, though their bassist, Mr. Burbridge, is perhaps even a more versatile performer (I love and admire him too!!!!).
I wish musicians didn't have to die. Period.
Unlike many of us, musicians leave behind a much larger legacy.Quote:
