RIP Bob Weir

Bob was a year ahead of me at boarding school in Colorado. We played guitar together a few times, trying to work out "Green, Green" by The New Christy Minstrels (as I remember). He dropped out the next year and moved to San Francisco and...well, the rest is history.

Fair winds and a following sea Bobby.

Bob Weir, Grateful Dead founding member and jam band icon, dies at 78

Weir had been diagnosed with cancer in July and beat it, but "succumbed to underlying lung issues," a statement said.

Bob Weir, a founding member of the Grateful Dead whose rhythm guitar work, songwriting and tireless touring helped push traditional American blues and folk music into the modern era, has died, according to a statement posted Saturday to his official website.

Across more than six decades, Weir was one of music’s true road warriors, performing thousands of shows with almost a dozen bands. And though he often stood figuratively (and sometimes literally) in Jerry Garcia’s shadow, Weir eventually assumed the status of elder statesman of the “jam band” music genre that spun off from the Dead.
