The Washington Post has an article about an oval office meeting between the Dead and Obama. Apparently, teabagging was not discussed but scarlet begonias appeared in the hallway.
David Axelrod is mentioned as a deadhead and he will be joining a few other Administration Deadheads at the show at Verizon Center.
My good buddy, who I saw the majority of my 40-50 Dead shows with, was in Greensboro for opening night and sent me a couple of mid-show updates that sounded very promising.
Don't forget to check out the Scarlet video linked in the article. Anything from 1977 is great and Jerry is happy and dancing in this one.
I'll be cathcing both nights in Chicago. Looking forward to a mini tour. I've heard the boys rehearsed hard and sound good.
