The Jug Band Jubilee is in Louisville, KY every year. It’s free, it’s down on the waterfront & it’s a whole lot of fun. If you get a chance go!

Tonight

[@MrYatesj1]

Love you Bobby!

[@ziggylayneable]

That recording is so good. I have heard it

[@laurettabratti6638]

The sheepish look on Captain Trips face. 😁

[@junipersnow1]

Holy sh*t, thats a cool story...Jerry the Music teacher.... sign me up!!!

[@benhailey3611]

Then they met Ken Kesey and Owsley and LSD-25 and became the house band for the Electric Koolaid Acid Tests and the rest is history!

[@ewinghouse2175]

No, Jerry McGuire. Of course he meant Jerry Garcia!

[@JerryGarciaPOBox]

Lmao!

[@jamesbarnhouse5216]

Right! 😂

[@smittyinwootown5640]

Really !! You Dummy.

[@MattKirk007]

Imagine Jerry Garcia being you guitar teacher then finding out he became famous

[@jimmyb4728]

I miss seeing them all so much.
PROUD JERRY'S KID HERE.
😎✌️🌅🌈🍄🤪💃🕺🐢🐻

[@user-nv6ir3mq2n]

Mother McRays! Jugband. Yaaaaa. Then came the Warlocks prior to the Grrrrreatful Dead. Gotta luv it🎉

[@davidmotlagh9779]

I always enjoyed their shows. Not too sure about nowadays. ICP took the best live show for me back in 93'😅 and the dead became#2 around the same time...

[@ErikShen2907]

WEIR....NOT WIER!!!!

[@DSWL_]

i can tell by the mark he left, you were in his dream

[@themerryprankster44]

I like hood the interviewer has to confirm it was Jerry Garcia after Bob just says "Jerry." What a square.

[@MarshOn4emmanuel]

He did that for the viewers. Not for himself. Good God

[@markdinkel-uh2je]

Bob weir

[@juniorthe3rdjuniorthe3rd]

You misspelled Bob’s last name. It’s Weir. You may wanna edit that one. 😂. Great interview & story though

[@jambandnews]

It’s entirely the cannabis’s fault and not mine.
Also, totally unrelated, I’m an idiot 🤦‍♂️

[@kelleymcbride4633]

Wait, are they talking about Jerry Garcia of the Greatful Dead?

[@johnw8984]

When you get old and you want to listen to some really good rock and roll but not too overpoweringly loud The Grateful Dead is the best. l think I saw them the last time in 1983 at Madison Square Garden with a couple of thousand friends😂😂 there is no way in hell I would pay $300+ bucks to go see any rock band sorry I remember paying $50 to $100 bucks to get good seats at Madison Square Garden in the 1970s and 1980s.

[@headstonesandhistory]

Bob wier. Who is he

[@darwinxke2827]

Jerry Garcia? No Jerry Lewis you dolt! 😂

[@jambandnews]

I got a chuckle out of that as well :D

[@pearlybakerbest]

Is there a reason you spelled weir incorrectly? Just curious...

[@sebastianmelmoth9100]

JEESUS spell Weir's name right ...

[@jambandnews]

I have. Thousands of times. This is the one the time my dyslexia won and you folks won’t let me live it down 🤣

[@Ceridwen65]

You spelled Weir wrong.

[@pokemontradingcardgamecoll5934]

*Weir

[@maureenobrien7895]

Bobb

[@Witchking68]

Can we at least spell Bob's last name correctly!!

[@Thresholdmoment]

Mandatory vaccine proof requirement at dead & Company shows, yeah, okay bobby. Hey bobby, are you fully vaccinated and boosted? It's okay bro, I already know that you aren't.

[@YragFlow1966]

Can you at least spell the man’s name right

[@paulferranti8536]

Fix the spelling please…..

[@opiebluwsit9751]

Bob Wier? At least have the respect to spell his name correctly.

[@jambandnews]

Holy shit I’m an asshole 🤣

[@smartalek180]

Even non-dyslexic ppl often type transpositional errors. Maybe be happy the clip is here for our delight, & don't worry so much abt harmless typos?

[@pokemontradingcardgamecoll5934]

The problem is that almost 100 percent of people younger than 30 have become too ignorant and stupid.

[@jambandnews]

@@pokemontradingcardgamecoll5934 well the guy who edited the video is in his 40s, so I don't think your theory applies to this situation. Knowing the guy myself, I think it's far more likely he was just high AF and made a typo.

[@LB-sk3vl]

I'm completely offended 😂

[@cyclesmoking]

Bob “Wier” 🙄
