GDF

ever wonder who these people are? the so called "family." if you have been at a show you have. this explains it pretty well. Scroll down. The funny thing is that this was all started with the Dead and Owsley (bear) churning out batches back while the band was still practicing in their house on Haight-Ashbury. I have become friends with this artist and curator for 60's historic items. His name is Shady Backflash and he is always on tour, buy his art and ask to see the original Ergotamine that Albert Hoffman used. He got it as a present at Hoffmans 100th birthday.

GDF might have come out of something cool but now a lot of people claiming GDF are just greedy, shady tour rats.

got bored and googled my name and this thread came up... funny to post under "shady tour rats" and "shady, oxy bangin' kids."

i just sell art... the hofmann ergotamine is a relic, not a delivery system for LSD... it can be found on ebay, too...

anywayz, yeah, the term GDF has always made me cringe... i only did eight years of tour when jerry was alive. i'm close with many in the so-called "grateful dead family" (people who were behind the laminated curtain when jerry toured) but the gangsta posturing of the "lot kidz" strikes me as a bad parody of what a psychedelic subculture should call a "family"... the protection part (looking out for one another, etc) makes sense, but so much else leaves me wondering if they've ever heard "uncle john's band"... "whoa-oh, what i want to know... is are you kind?"
