Barack Obama Selects the Dead for Inaugural Ball

Posted 11 months ago



This story via Rolling Stone today, he has admitted to having some Dead on his iPod, when the Dead did their reunion concert in honor of Barack, ending up raising piles of cash and heaps of heady awareness. Barack Obama appeared on a screen via sattalite at the concert, but it appears he wants a more personal celebration with the multi colored all American Institution.

Another pitfall of political rocking: a background check. "It gave me pause when I had to get a security clearance to play a gig!" Hart says. So did they get past the security scan? "Oh, yeah, we don't look so bad on paper. It's not as bad as you might think."

    Un-@#$@#-ing believable!  The Dead at a Presidential Inaugural Ball?  Oh, man, if Garcia could see this!  

    OK folks, it's time to claim our trophy.  The "dead beat" boomer generation finally changed the world.
