Musings on the Most Ridiculous Band I Can't Stop Listening To

Popper? Hardly Even Know ‘Er!

Is there any way Dead & Company can sound like this, and not, you know, bad?

Also–and this is a left-field kinda thing–what if Beyoncé was in the band?

There would be many benefits to Beyoncé joining Dead & Company: the publicity alone would make it worth it. Beyoncé also insists that the musicians she hires (Beyoncé would begin treating the Dead as her back-up band from the first phone call) rehearse, so that would be good for everyone.  Jay-Z would also do a guest verse, and that would go entertainingly.

    Thanks for this ToTD. This is the most fun I’ve had at a football game in my life!

    OK, “Foolish Heart” may be the first miss for me.

      Have to agree… the drugs that give have become the drugs that taketh away.

        I love it too, the one from the Alpine Valley movie stuck with me for days. That’s what makes this one a little rough for me.

        Speaking as one who was there: “Foolish” was better as concept; it lacked . . . juice. Especially given what it followed.

    That percussion guy is tastefully subservient to the Billy..

    How it should be, Billy drives, you can sing along, but Billy Drives.

      Don’t know what the feed was like, but, speaking as someone who was there: you couldn’t hear one hit of his bongos, not a single hit of his cymbals. He was aurally non-existent.
