2:34 Jerry whispers "chicken" underneath his breath when the reporter said that she reported outside the venue instead of the inside. Hahah. I love it.
It always makes me feel such a sense of wonder to hear these old interviews with Jerry and Bobby. You can feel their friendship come through and it just makes one smile and know that there are some truly special things that the world has to offer.
I find it so fascinating when jerry was talking about looking back and listening to older music like the 20s and now we are here in 2015 looking back to the 70s.
Haha, Bob's reaction at the beginning when they introduce Jerry as the lead guitarist and just say "and Bob Weir" and then at the end his reaction when she cuts him off. Classic stuff, love ya Bobby.
Dude imagine these 2 on something like Joe Rogan where they could really talk. Edit: for the people who keep commenting they are really talking, what i mean is having 2 hrs to talk.
Back in the old days there was kinda of an unspoken rule that grown adults were expected to be genuine and have some degree of integrity. That's coming from someone who was a young teen at this time so that was my perspective at that time. It makes me sick when a younger adult acts like a complete ass and finishes their bullshit with "I'm oldschool" lol. Because adults from the past only acted like adults do now when they were drunk.
2:18 “Do you look forward to going to the great beyond or do you plan on staying together another 15 years.” 15 years later was 1995, the year we lost Jerry and the Grateful Dead to the great beyond❤️
Thank you so much for being a true fan of my music ... Those lovely comments of yours really went straight to my heart .. well I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music.. have you been to my concert before ??
Saw them about a month before this. Lewiston Maine, they must of been rehearsing for their NY run , they played EVERYTHING , … four and a half hours!!! A mind blowing day ;)
That was sweet......Joan London is so naive and beautiful.....she tried to make them fit into her neat box but her world and their world......heaven's be......like a flower in a pot of gold with these two.....
we're all human. to think that joan london somehow bypasses what it is to be human is fallacy. Imagine going through life without any drug use. Having to face problems head on. That's what it is to be human. A constant party with drugs and booze is NOT reality. Not even close.
Greg Lanciotti Ha! Dude yer lost! E V E R Y O N E does something to cope with "reality" be it take NyQuil for a cold, or molest little boys like Catholic priest's, or snort cocaine like workaholics, or eat and eat and eat like the morbidly obese, or play music like a musician, or draw pictures like an artist, do math like an engineer or physicist, "reality" in it's most basic form is at the least incomprehensible to everyone so we do things that make it make sense so our brains don't short out and explode. For some people reality is terrifying so they force everything into a tiny box thinking they have a grasp of it, but in "reality" they don't, no one does. So save yer biased derogatory nonsense. Some people accept that they can't put reality into a little box and crave something more for their experience so they take their consciousness on an adventure through the use of perception altering substances. You should try it sometime it might help you calm the fuck down.....jus sayin.
Joan Lunden is a sweetheart. She's doing her job but she's not a phony. And she's not stuck up. She manages to connect with these guys who are ostensibly so different from her; and they, to their credit, were cool with her ... not arrogant or insular.
The more I see Bob on these interviews the more weird and creepy his seems. Jerry is nice but Bob would be hard to carry a conversation with especially if I was stoned.
Cool video! I went to the 10/23 show at RCity. Last minute decision as a ticket was offered to me at about 4:00 that afternoon in Hamden,CT. So glad I did it. Never pass up an opportunity, you may see something you'll remember 4ever!
I went to 30+, I knew a couple who went to over 120. The point is that the Dead played a ton of shows! When they came to town, they would play 3 nights in stead of one..
Too bad John Lennon didn't make guest appearances with them when the Dead did their shows at the Radio City Music Hall in the fall that year since he only lived about 10 minutes away from there... 😔
2:17 Stay together another 15 years and then straight to the Great Beyond. Of all dimwitted morning show hosts, this one turned out to be the most prescient.
I remember Bobby’s intro to the short lived “Weir Here” stories. “I figure I’ve seen some things that no one else has seen and maybe I can share some of my knowledge”. Perfect.
It's eerie that she asks " Do you look forward to the great beyond? Or do you want to stay together for another 15 years?" Almost exactly 15 years later Jerry passed away.
Everyone's commenting on the interview...as someone from during these years, I can't believe it actually happened...the Joan Lunden set were the pre-oprahs. Amazing they got the time they were given in my humble opinion...
Garcia and Weir maintain their workmanlike perspective despite the effective opposition with so many traps that i really liked the line where jerry said, "yeah, we like the understanding with our fans that we're there for the music, and there will be 'good' and 'bad' nights...but we do our best, Bob Weir said. Thanks, my brother William was a Grateful Dead Fan, and great singer songwriter scholar.
There’s still time. It’s been classically stated that you don’t just get into the Dead, you GROW into the Dead. Just start with some of their live stuff and eventually they’ll grow on you and then you’ll realize they’re one of your all time favorite bands. I’m telling you!
@@thatssoironic Since high school I listened to the Dead from friends and acquaintances. Same in college. I liked some songs but didn’t get the hype and couldn’t get past certain things. Mind you, I was doing mind altering concoctions since I was 15. It was not until I was around 27 or 28 that I truly heard them. I needed to just get into other genres first to acclimate my palate. One day I just locked in to a live CD of the Dead my friend was playing in his car. I broke through. Started absorbing as much as I could from then on and really getting sucked down the rabbit hole. A bit over a year later I met this girl. Her favorite band, Grateful Dead. 15 years later we have a daughter who went to school picture day just last week wearing a dancing bears Dead tye dye t shirt.
@@thatssoironic I was so late to the bus it's ridiculous (2001) , but I fell on hard, that's for sure. Sorry I missed what I missed, but I had a real good time anyway.
Biggest take away. The deadhead interviews. These people are just simply different. Look at their eyes & their smiles. I aspire to be more like that. & please spare me the ‘that’s cuz they’re all high...’ That may be part of it but these are largely enlightened souls.
That was a hoot, seeing a young Joan Lunden who was sweet but clueless, and of course they were being nice, but probably thinking help! I hope she finally went to a concert....I wonder if she ever actually listened to an album?

Sultan Mulberry went to a dead & co. Concert this summer. It’s like a time portal back to the sixties or seventies, it’s beautiful. Amazing environment everyone is so friendly. Not to mention, Bobby has still got it! And John Mayer is a great addition

Me too. Thanks for the timestamp lol
She laughed at herself, too! Haha
Typical MSM reporter
"It's hard not to like people who like you"
Simple but brilliant, Jerry
God I love him
@@DanaJohnMc
Was a glorious blessing he was
“We play better for warm human bodies. We don’t play well for machines.” Jerry always had a great sense of humor
Listen to that play to warm bodies - not machines - wow
Yes he did & still does in heaven
Hey people I am changing my name back to my maiden name so u all can keep up with me - Linda Carter, winder woman who loves Garcia
Do u all like that?
You think that's funny?
he said he spends all his money going to your concerts. " So do we". haha Jerry always puts a smile on my face.
Their payroll was OOC. They took care of everyone!
Jerry calling her a chicken is just too damn funny. I like how no one even acknowledges it too.
Christ if he did that today he would be labeled a sexist and would have to do a nationwide apology tour.
OMg so funny!
I laughed.
I think she snickered.
LOL! I don't think she caught that.
Your fans are unbelievable... "...well, don't believe 'em then..."- Bobby. Love it.
When I think of the Grateful Dead, obviously I think of Good Morning America. Right up their alley.
Ha!! I know, eh?
😂😂😂
The idea of these two going on good morning America is beautifully ironic. Rest in eternity to both of them
Hey one is still with us!
@@TehNixonExe I just saw Bobby a few nights ago 😁
It always makes me feel such a sense of wonder to hear these old interviews with Jerry and Bobby. You can feel their friendship come through and it just makes one smile and know that there are some truly special things that the world has to offer.
I find it so fascinating when jerry was talking about looking back and listening to older music like the 20s and now we are here in 2015 looking back to the 70s.
Hotchoclateymilk No, that would be like us looking back to music in the 50's.
That seems pretty accurate jesus
I'm in 2020 here watching ya'll.
My father has seen over 300, toured from 80' to 95', lots of great stories he has told me!
your dad sounds like a bum
George Martin go back to your pre programmed matrix of traffic jams and corrupt politicians
@@InfamousMedia what are you talking about? If you’re going to espouse crap at least give it some context
My goodness. Make him write a memoir!!!!
1980... another 15 years....RIP Jerry
It technically died in 1990 after Brent passing, JG was never the same
Haha, Bob's reaction at the beginning when they introduce Jerry as the lead guitarist and just say "and Bob Weir" and then at the end his reaction when she cuts him off.
Classic stuff, love ya Bobby.
more fun than a frog in a glass of milk
@@RickBaconsAdventures If the head fits, wear it.
It's sad that they actually did go for exactly 15 years to 95 when jerry past away
I noticed that, they were talking about the great beyond...
I got chills when I heard her say that.
I too noticed the ominous 15 years reference, chilling indeed.
Cosmic how it was 15 more and Uncle Jerry went to jam with Pig in the great beyond
Crazy stuff
it's crazy she said do you guys wanna stick together for another 15 years and they were together with Jerry another 15
uh yeah its this ladys fault
@@ysethinhfsgvhtcvb Joan Lunden is a saint
Insane
And, I'm eternally 'grateful' for those additional 15 yrs. 😎👍
Finally an interviewer not asking dumb questions. Joan was bright and prepared which made them pretty comfortable.
I'm 20 years of age and jerry's laugh just gets to me, man. Wish i could have seem him singing and playing lead with dead and CO. Jam on, friends!
Grateful Dead not dead and co
Dude imagine these 2 on something like Joe Rogan where they could really talk.
Edit: for the people who keep commenting they are really talking, what i mean is having 2 hrs to talk.
I'd give my right middle finger to see that lol
Bobby would be a good fit for it
That would be fantastic... some interviewers back then really did their job well, but not many.
“Jerry, ever tried DMT?”
If only
Souls like bob weir are undervalued
I can't believe Jerry is gone. Imagine what he'd be doing today
Don't believe it then.
I like to think Jerry and Bob Ross are out there "in the great beyond" making amazing art.
Heroin and coke?
@@steveanderson7864 you know jerry would be hitting the dab pen
Uh, smoking pot and playing guitar?
I just love that little “Hi” from Jerry
@ 4:30 "It's hard not to like people who like you" Brilliant!
"Keeps us out of trouble....out of crime..." Awesome line
Bobs face at 3:12 when the reporter says some even quit their jobs :D that face made my day!
That studio set has such a warm feel to it. Bob and Jerry help. The host seems very genuine as well.
Joan Lunden
Back in the old days there was kinda of an unspoken rule that grown adults were expected to be genuine and have some degree of integrity. That's coming from someone who was a young teen at this time so that was my perspective at that time. It makes me sick when a younger adult acts like a complete ass and finishes their bullshit with "I'm oldschool" lol. Because adults from the past only acted like adults do now when they were drunk.
Jerry garcia has to be the coolest guy ever. I mean they guy gave his life to the music scene.
It’s crazy she asked if they imagined another 15 years and if they thought they would go to the great beyond. 15 years after this we lost Jerry😢
2:18 “Do you look forward to going to the great beyond or do you plan on staying together another 15 years.”
15 years later was 1995, the year we lost Jerry and the Grateful Dead to the great beyond❤️
I feel i know them. Jerry is still singing in heaven & love his voice, calls a person that has a voice like his - just to listen his voice
Thank you so much for being a true fan of my music ... Those lovely comments of yours really went straight to my heart .. well I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music.. have you been to my concert before ??
"Chicken" Jerry's the best!!!
Crazy love for jerry.
jerry wanted to talk more. would have loved to hear it. that being said.. bob and jerry are once in a life time artists...
Saw them about a month before this. Lewiston Maine, they must of been rehearsing for their NY run , they played EVERYTHING , … four and a half hours!!! A mind blowing day ;)

Had never seen that before, and really enjoyed it. "Sheer intense burning hatred and revenge" indeed!
Jerry at the end "We gotta get out of here"
I can’t believe they got up this early!
We need a million more jerry garcias and bob weirs!!!
I really wanted to hear what Bob had to say about animal sounds.
The more I see Bob on these interviews the more weird and creepy his seems. Jerry is nice but Bob would be hard to carry a conversation with especially if I was stoned.
Me too
@Frank Serpico yeah, he's funny in his own kind of way. Like, only people who do what he does would appreciate what he did.
I saw the show on 10-27-1980. It was a good show; it was tight.
2:32 jerry calls her a chicken lol
Cool video!
I went to the 10/23 show at RCity. Last minute decision as a ticket was offered to me at about 4:00 that afternoon in Hamden,CT.
So glad I did it. Never pass up an opportunity, you may see something you'll remember 4ever!
Holy shit that guy went to over 75 shows! Talk about dedication, deadheads were something very special. Would've loved to lived like they did
yeah there's lots people who went to 100's of shows and can even prove it.
In his head maybe
I went to 30+, I knew a couple who went to over 120. The point is that the Dead played a ton of shows! When they came to town, they would play 3 nights in stead of one..
She's hot
47 here plus 14 JGB shows. smile smile smile
john lennon was still alive damn
He’d be dead two months later
Too bad John Lennon didn't make guest appearances with them when the Dead did their shows at the Radio City Music Hall in the fall that year since he only lived about 10 minutes away from there... 😔
John was scheduled to sit in with JGB I’m nyc when he was shot. Really really very sad
Did Lennon ever play with the Dead or any of the Beatles?
@@janeseamore1370 Oh man, that would've been awesome. And, it should've happened, dammit!
Gotta love that "We play for warm bodies,not machines"!We are everywhere!
The crowd scenes take me back to when I was 18.
at 5:33 ... I thought Jerry was going to say, I like listening to Animal Collective..
My birthday I was 5years old then. I missed ever seeing Jerry live. Had the honor of seeing them on tour since.
Remember when 15 years seems like a long time? Now we have bands still active that have been together for 40 years plus.
Love his voice & .....
2:17 Stay together another 15 years and then straight to the Great Beyond. Of all dimwitted morning show hosts, this one turned out to be the most prescient.
+ronson232 I was about to say something like: "M'am, the 'great beyond' means he's dead, okay?" But yeah seriously right on the money
Also, this was in October. Jerry died in August. So she didn't fall short at all with her estimation.
That was great!
Ha! just saw my dad in the background of one of the shots from the street interviews
Yeah, they say he passed in 1995 but he is still singing in heaven u people need to be calm, listen deal with things & will be happy happy soon
3:30 that guy said he waited online for 3 days for the tickets. Did they really have a grateful dead website in 1980??
Weir & Garcia on their Fans “They’re game” I love that line!!
Rest in Peace Pigpen, Jerry and all the other dead we've lost.
I remember Bobby’s intro to the short lived “Weir Here” stories. “I figure I’ve seen some things that no one else has seen and maybe I can share some of my knowledge”. Perfect.
It's eerie that she asks
" Do you look forward to the great beyond? Or do you want to stay together for another 15 years?"
Almost exactly 15 years later Jerry passed away.
Jerry is a legend :)
This was fun!
Everyone's commenting on the interview...as someone from during these years, I can't believe it actually happened...the Joan Lunden set were the pre-oprahs. Amazing they got the time they were given in my humble opinion...
I think Bob liked her. She was a cutie, even in 1980 The Dead weren't exactly cutting edge.
best band ever
Ha. Jerry called her a chicken.
But, damn she was cute! Pray for her, she is battling cancer.
Where? I missed that.
2:35
she says she covered the concert OUTSIDE, and Jerry mutters Chicken! LMAO!
That's what I thought I heard lol
Jerry did stick around for another 15 years from the time of this interview to be exact 2:18
Joan is absolutely stunning.
Beautiful
The craziest part of this video is she says they'll stay together for 15 more years, it was almost 15 years later that Jerry died
I caught that too and scrolled all the way down to see if someone else referenced it. LOL.
D - Rock Did the same thing, lol.
At 2:29. They did stay together another 15. Until 1995 when Jerry passed.
Great Record! One of their best. BUY BOOKS!!
Did Jerry just call her 'chicken'? Too funny! The guy has incredible whit on top of his incredibly glorious sorrow and happiness guitar playing.
3:37 that dude to the left is in another plane of existence holy shit
What a wonderful interviewer. Sharp and good questions.
She was prophetic, they were together for another 15 years.
Garcia and Weir maintain their workmanlike perspective despite the effective opposition with so many traps that i really liked the line where jerry said, "yeah, we like the understanding with our fans that we're there for the music, and there will be 'good' and 'bad' nights...but we do our best, Bob Weir said.

He was probably still used to the West Coast time frame.
He hadn't been to bed yet :-)

Michael Thompson yup
"Your fans are unbelievable."

We all miss you Jerry
Those fans are all in their late 50’s to early 70’s now. Man, it goes quick.
