    There will never be another band quite like the Grateful Dead. To Deadheads, they were less of a rock group and more like bonafide religious figures.
    It's been 27 years since the Grateful Death played their last show at Soldier Field in Chicago on July 9, 1995. One month later on August 9th, the band's leader, legendary guitarist Jerry Garcia died of a heart attack.
    Dead & Company, a Grateful Dead tribute band of sorts, fronted by John Meyer on guitar and featuring former Grateful Dead members, Mickey Hart, Bob Weir, and Bill Kreutzman have been playing sold-out shows since their formation in 2015.
    While Dead & Co. are a solid act, Old-school Deadheads will tell you that there will never be anything like an authentic Grateful Dead show from back in the day.
    In this video, we'll be taking a look at the Grateful Dead members who have died. We'll cover all of the major names while also taking the time to honor a couple of the lesser-known ones.

    Well jerry and bob are obvious choices but Bret made the band so much stronger in my opinion. I was a late starting dead head and didn’t go to my first show till 1984. FYI I was at a show in I think 1990 in a town called alsip Illinois. It was the same night Pink Floyd was playing at the Berlin Wall. I thought he actually was taken off stage that show and passed. I’m sure they are partying in heaven

    I was lucky enough to have dinner with Mr. Barlow in Pinedale. He was a very intelligent and courteous man. We had a great steak and sipped a scotch as we talked about his lyrics. Later he sent me a copy of Weather Report Suite on his ranch stationary. Looking back, I can't see why he took the time to do that for someone he just met. He was a class act. Every time I hear thunder, it shouts, "I am!"
