Need your help

Please fellow travelers who are following the path towards enlightenment, share with me your stories about encounters with Jerry Garcia. Brief explanation is that I am a lookalike for Jerry and I have people share with me their stories of encounters with Jerry Garcia. Last weekend, I went to Oregon vs. Cal football game, and the my Oregon friends wanted to share with this Jerry lookalke some of their favorite memories of Jerry encounters, lots of being a fellow Deadhead, but also some very fun moments. Thanks from a fellow Deadhead, Merry Prankster, Happy Hippie, etc.

Howdy....i know it has been quite some time since i paid you a visit...life is keeping me busy these days. I have never had a personal Jerry experience, except loving his music in the crowd of a show, but i know a site where you may find some kindred spirits who have, and i shared this site there. It is a site called reddit, under Grateful Dead. I have posted Dead related stuff there in the past with pretty good results...so all the best and stay kind :)

I attended the Dead concert at the Greek Theater in Berkeley. My ex-wife was dating Phil and got backstage passes for her and our two sons (and me). I was in the audience digging the show - there was a big Hells Angels motorcycle on the stage, and they revved the engine with some songs. At break I went backstage. It was crowded, beautiful and hip people. My pass gave me access to the inner room where the band hung out, so I found my older son playing Jerry's famous guitar, and my younger son messing with the huge bike. I told them to leave that stuff alone - just then Jerry walked up, said hello to me, and spontaneously started teaching my older son some guitar licks, and a Hells Angel came along and kicked over the bike and let my younger son rev the engine. I was blown away, so I went back to the audience. Just before I found my seat I was given a hit of acid. I have no idea how I got home from that show.
