" with a " Touch Of Grey !!! ".
Dead-Fans !!!!! ... and especially all of you fellow " In The Darkers " out there - hey, don't worry ... I'm one too ! This Shirt here, is not only one of the most Coolest ! & Funniest !! Official GDM T-Shirts out there ... but it is also one of the most Important & Quintessential ! Especially ... when you are talking " 80's Dead " - and for me, that's a topic that I have cherished life-long ! The Grateful Dead established themselves as ' the ' premiere Live Improvisational Psychedelic Rock Band in the Late-'60's, and also into the '70's ... but in the '80's - they became Both ! the greatest Live ' Psychedelic ' Rock Band -- and also the premiere Live ' Rock 'n Roll ' Band too !!! As I buddy of mine once said ... " Man, I really prefer my '80's Dead - as they are just more ... Rockin' ! ". Classic-comment, and depending on your ' own ' ears & taste - it's kinda true ! So, " Whistle through you teeth & spit ... because, It's Alright " .... right ? Because then, came " In the Dark " ... and especially " Touch of Grey " ! As I always like to say ... only the Grateful Dead could write a song and perform it live for the " 1st " time ( in 1982 ) -- and then ' casually ' have it become a Major Hit !! with the Masses ... just a cool 5-Years later !!!!! Truly one of their Greatest ! ' backwards ' accomplishments. Just awesome. Well, this here ... it's the Vintage-Original 1987 Grateful Dead Merchandising, Inc. T-Shirt -- that obviously has the ' tongue-in-cheek ' image of the Touch of Grey MTV Video !!! in mind. We've all seen that right ? - and have seen the Pooch on stage, running across the stage with Mickey's leg-bone, right ? Prime-time T.V. type stuff. In '93 at Cal Expo Bobby said " It's Even Better Than T.V. " during Gloria ! ( pretty hot version too, may I add. ) - but, that was '93 -- but in '87 ... maybe T.V. was better, because the Grateful Dead had a Prime-Time MTV Video !!! Does anyone out there still remember " Day of the Dead " - or, maybe it was " Dawn of the Dead " ? Well, one way or another - it was like a hours ! long series of Grateful Dead Live ! footage, etc.. on MTV that just kept going, and going, and going ! So awesome ... I loved it ! Well, here's " The " Shirt ! ... a couple stray Roses on the ground, everyone's wearing Sneakers ! Puma's on Jerry ? That would be accurate ... Jerry's wearin' a Blazer ! - '87 Style !! Bob's got that mean 'ol triple-wood grain Modulus ! ... and B.K.'s got a Leather Jacket ! - Phil with a Tie-Dye ! - And Mick ... Drum Stick in the Teeth ! (and the Vaurnet Cats ! - or so it appears. ). And Brent ! ... it's too bad they didn't paint that " Live Free or Die " Harley Shirt on him, because for me ? I think that was my favorite ... just a few keyboard-keys instead, which is also cool. What a Legendary Shirt -- and I am sad ( yet, still glad ! ) to say that this one is now close to like 30-Years old !!?!! Fall Tour '87 ! - Back East !! - Providence - Maryland - New York & Philly !!!! Where ! ... did !? all of that Time-Go ?!! Enjoy !!!!!!!
