RIP Neal Casal. Coming here today to remember you
RIP Neal! All Souls Day.. May your soul sing on!
RIP Neal. Miss your music talent!
RIP Neal. What an amazing take on a beloved song.
I was his guest to this event. He knew how much it meant to me to be there because I love the Dead so, and he knew how to love with the little things that Ripple into forever.
I cannot tell how you how much I cherish that memory. And I also cannot tell you how much this means to me to have this pop up in my feed today. Thank you so much for posting. 🌹NFA♾❤️♾NC.
Amazing and beautiful and haunting... I miss Neal and Jerry.
Me too 💔
My heart hurts watching this. We love you, Neal Casal.
Was just about to post the same
RIP Neal. You will be missed by many.
One hell of a musician...All the good ones are leaving us way to early..Rip man..
Was just reminiscing over some CRB and came across this. What a gentle beautiful soul. We miss you Neal
What a goddamn tragedy. Rest in peace Neal, you left a huge void.
Agree. Heartbreaking 💔
Neil... You nailed it.
He had such a gorgeous voice. Smart selfless player.
"Smart selfless player...." Great description. Always about the song and the band. He was just so easy to listen to.
I first saw Neal with Chris Robinson's Brotherhood. What a powerful, skilled, talented, incredible performer. And he showed no outward signs of depression. But then again, I suffer from clinical depression, and I'll tell ya, it’s hard. Sometimes you just want to crawl in a hole and pull the opening in behind you, and the worst part is, you don't know why, you’re just suddenly overcome with massive sadness. I manage mine well, but I am concerned with all the many super stars in the last few years that are gone. And it isn’t just band members; it’s all types of artist. I think maybe we see more band members because we listen to music so much. At any rate if you have issues with depression, any depression, see a Dr. There are a lot of things that can help. But talking to someone is the first, and that always helps.
That smile on Bobby's face at the end of the song is just prickles.
Neal was such a talent. He was part of "the family" but he was a treasure that most of the world never knew.
Oh Neal. 😢
We are broken-hearted. RIP beautiful man.
I saw him a year ago in Stockholm with CRB. When he played his solos, the men in the audience just smiled from ear to ear, spellbound.
Hard to understand He's Gone, it hurts and I miss him... RIP Neal, my guitar hero.
Beautiful song, beautiful Neal
We are here for only a finite amount of time. You, Neal, gave it a great run.
Neal’s passing is a reminder to us all that no matter what things appear to be seldom are they what they seem! Case in point: not only was Neal a tremendously gifted player singer songwriter but so believed by his contemporaries family and friends yet on that fateful day took his own life in a very dark place void of the beauty and gifts of his wonderful life and gifts! I’m so heartbroken for Neal and all of humanity because it’s far too common! I can only hope he’s found peace and live along the great divide! A kind gentle soul yet in spite of his gifts a wide net of friends and admirers chose to leave it all behind ! God bless us all that we may know the gift of life live and the heartache of loss! As the Buddha said “there’s no pain like hunger but NO SORROW LIKE SEParation”! So true as we are left to understand what can’t be explained to heal the deepest of sorrow.... we love you NEAL....
Beautifully stated, Joseph. Thank you for the words.
You definitely brought something to this.👍🏻
Gorgeous version w amazing accompaniment to complement Casal’s soulful singing. 🙏
One of Robert Hunter's greatest lyrics. He sadly passed a few weeks later on 24th September. The world will miss them both.
Never ever underestimate the power of a kind word or a hurtful gesture! We never know what someone is going through.... ship of fools on a cool sea... AMEN....
Such an incredibly gorgeous job with the vocals by Mr. Casal. I could listen to this forever. Thank you, Neal. NFA
Making a big man cry again. Love you Neal
Mike Gordon on bass!
Also: Roseanne lookin' pretty trim! ;-D
I knew it was coming but Neal's death really hit me today. What a man!

Persona fantastica...R.i.p..
One of a kind.

if i could feel or be of give or play or imagine a mere second of Neal's life, being here'd be worth it. oh, so much more you had to feel give play imagine
RIP from your friends back home
R.I.P Neal!
❤
Respect Neal Sleep well...
💙
rest easy my friend!
Choice Tuneage.....indeed!
I see bobby Ace and Jon Graboff from the Adams band- does anyone know who the woman is ? ship of fools- with pedal steel- the song now truly weeps !!!
The woman is Donna Jean Godchaux
Just like Cobain. I will not accept this. Music was the outlet for healing and also produces positivity. Time will tell the truth.
That’s straight up cruel for there to be ad in the middle of the song
Who is playing steel guitar?
Also, is that Marco on piano?
Adam McDougal is on one of them keyboard gadgets
The other guy on keys is Jeff. Chimenti
Jon Graboff, also played with Ryan Adams and the Cardinals with Neil.
And we bid you.goodnight Neal. Tell B for the beast and the endin of the wood goodnight goodnight you know it ate all the children that would not be good goodnight
I prefer Neal Casal's art photos to Mike Gordon's.
Dead Phish Cardinals?
Unbearably sad.
I can only conclude that Neal Casal was stupidly talented...
I don't get it honestly. His voice is mundane. His guitar playing is sub par. I saw this guy with CRB and it was like a 2nd rate Dead cover band. Why the hell is this guy so revered?
Because he was an angel. Jesus man, what's wrong with you? He gave people joy while he was here.
Have you listened to his own records? Give it a go, you may not like it in the end who knows but at least you'll have a formed opinion. Towards the end of his stint with CRB he was by no stretch of the imagination a sub par guitar player. The color and feel he added to the Cardinals goes way way above any technical ability. His voice may not be powerful but it's very distinct and immediately recognizable. Please share your albums, I'd be happy to learn how good you are as a songwriter and musician. Peace dude.
Seems like you dont listen to much music lol
