It's the end of an era as Phil Lesh has passed away. The Grateful Dead are no truly no more. Rest in peace dude you were great and I will listen to your music everyday until I join you

The photo below was in a NY Times pictures of Phil Lesh article.

 

I went to a 1967 Grateful Dead show at the CafeAuGoGo. I was a kid from NJ pre-driver's license. I took the train and the PATH tube into NYC to the show.

 

The layout of the club was long and narrow with the stage in the middle. In the middle of a set, my timing was I had to leave to catch the last train home. I had to walk within a meter of Jerry Garcia on the way out and he gave me a look like my walking out was as editorial opinion on his show.

 

But it was otherwise fun mostly playing stuff off their first album.
