Lamorinda Weekly re TIAADWD

Very nice preview article by Lou Fancher. Blair and I will be at the Lafayette (CA) Library next Thursday, January 7. Here is info about the event.

An excerpt: “Capturing the band’s essential aura through the words of band members and their collaborators is riveting, even for readers who don’t claim to be Deadheads. The myths and magnetism that drew a dedicated fan base is illustrated through interviews with over 100 people, including unofficial leader Jerry Garcia, drummer Mickey Hart, concert promoter Bill Graham, Carolyn ‘Mountain Girl’ Garcia, band member Bob Weir and others. Braided into the disparate, personal accounts with clarity and an admirable lack of hyperbole, given their backgrounds as Dead aficionados, Jackson and Gans insert fact-laden bridges to bolster an engrossing narrative.”
