Welcome one and all to Shakedown Street!

We are a new Daily Kos group for all things related to the Grateful Dead and their progeny. In the short term, we hope to become a gathering place for like minded Kossaks to talk tour. A more ambitious goal for the long term would be to become Daily Kos' one stop shop for news, tour info, story swapping, meet-ups, and other Dead-themed miscellanea, but that depends on YOU!

Maybe you have hot info, or good stories. Maybe you'll be attending one or more of the upcoming Furthur shows and are inclined to blog your experience. Maybe you have room in your ride to the next show, or a miracle to bestow upon a lucky kossack! If you want to write diaries or contribute to the group in any other way, let us know in the comments, or PM myself or dKos user Direwolf, and you're in! Simple as that.

Below the fold we have some preliminary info on the current state of affairs in the Dead world, links to off-site resources, and of course our theme song! While you're here, feel free to discuss anything and everything even tangentially related to the Grateful Dead or the Jam scene in general.

Not that that affects me or anything...

Anyway, all you foil-hat wearers might want to trade your helmet in for a body suit.

From The Guardian

It is the ultimate in unmanned drones: the Pentagon has revealed plans for a surveillance aircraft that will fly more than 12 miles above the ground for 10 years without landing.

More survei-liciousness below!
