Marjorie

 Norfolk, VA 
I saw this concert live stream at a theater. I have never seen the Grateful Dead in concert live so I am coming at this fresh however, I have seen many, many concerts in my life. I grew up with musicians, family and friends my Dad still plays the guitar. My son works for the local Opera and Symphony. This show was born when people wanted to see it. It came together from love of music which has no boundaries of age, perfection, or expectations. Music comes from the soul and reaches out to the souls of others and is accepted, multiplied, and expressed thru movement. When your soul is touched your body cannot help but to be moved and move. I was moved. I also thought the stage and effects were grovey! The music is timeless and has been popular since it's conception, as witnessed by Phish's popularity in continuing with the similar style of music, for the sake of making music. Groovy, Cool, Psychedelic, Grateful Dead, Joy, Fun and just Good Music.
