John Barlow once told the guitarist that he was considering going “out front” to frolic among the Deadheads in the parking lot.
.
“I would, man, if I could,” Garcia wistfully told Barlow.
.
“He wanted to be with the Deadheads,” John revealed to writer Robert Greenfield. “He said, ‘I would, man, if I could. It looks a lot safer out there. But how would I know ?’”

i dont think psychedelics ever went away, we took lots of psychedelics all through the 80s, and there was quite a large scene on the east coast of australia.............i prefer mushrooms personaly....psychedelics are very special.......allways remember set and setting
"...Blow up your kitchen in the Salinas Valley" Lmfao! What a nice surprise too from John Perry Barlow. Bear made the best LSD. I can vouch for that. Made me a better, kinder and more loving person.
Shared a cup of koolade with the bear behind stage at Aaron Russo Russo's kinetic playground in Chicago 1966 along with the mothers of Invention those were the days
Well...what I cannot understand is why some leaders in the acid world advocated surprise dosing of people. This is not only disrespectful to the magical compound, it is one of the most inhumane things you could do to someone!!!
Love it how he just dropped how Lennon wrote his Songs.. with Owsley's acid haha
Writing from Nanjing, China: Bought new from a Dead show mail order ticket brochure listing, I've always worn my treasured Bear 1983 Steal Your Face serial #2 signed/numbered belt buckle including when he died which was during my two years living in Lhasa, Tibet. My first Dead show was 12/16/78 Nashville, a couple weeks prior to their Closing of Winterland.... RIP Bear WALSTIB
cool that john perry barlow managed to be there. a perfect complement to reading the book. this youtube provides an immersive haight street literary experience. a total treat!...
I always wondered how many of the intelligence community were at these events......knowing ....I assume ....that they sampled the product and embraced it....yet enforced the twisted laws of the evil empire.....
Great talk but who the hell is the guy goin "hm" like every 20 seconds
Bear was very secretive.
Wonderful, I could listen to this for hours… Bear was a unique character and everything I’ve read and heard about him I wish he was alive today.... we need more people with big brains that figure shit out and are not afraid of pushing the boundaries....✌️👽🕉
I met the Bear in Copenhagen, Denmark.The Grateful Dead were doing the European Tour in the Fall of 1990.The train timetable (big Thomas Cook) showed a passenger car going out with
In 1984 a bunch of us went to see the Dead. We're chatting during the set break, and this guy comes up to my sister, who had a necklace with a small chunk of gold, which was her husbands grandmothers wedding ring melted down. The guy just reaches out and lifts it closer so he could inspect it. My brother in law was taken aback, but I immediately spotted the guy had a tour laminate on, with just Bear to identify who he was. I said to my brother in law he's cool, and it just turned out Bear was just interested in her necklace. In retrospect we should have asked him for some of his wares.
Cool talk, thanks for sharing! He was right about the cancer and glucose. Studies are now revealing its true
Entertaining.
“He(Owsley)came back in 1965 with 800,000 doses” well..from where!? from Sandoz? Bear knew many of the heavy hitters getting legal Sandoz LSD back then. Guys like Oscar Janiger, Charles Savage, Nicholas Bercel, Humphrey Osmond, Abram Hoffer, Duncan Blewett, & the one & only Al Hubbard. All these guys were well outfitted with LSD. Not to say Bear couldn’t make it as it sounds like he made plenty.
Owsley's all-meat diet = all the rage these days.
