Grateful Dead to reunite for Obama concert
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters Life!) - The Grateful Dead, the San Francisco cult rock band that has played at political events since the 1960s, will reunite on Monday for the first time in four years to rally support for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, a spokesman said on Friday.
Band leader Jerry Garcia died in 1995. Surviving members have played together occasionally since then, most recently in 2004. On Monday, original members Mickey Hart, Phil Lesh and Bob Weir will play at a San Francisco theater a day before California's primary.
"They have agreed to reunite for this one-time-only event in order to lend support to Senator Obama leading into the crucial 'Super-Tuesday' series of primaries held on Tuesday, February 5th," the band said in a statement.............

I really think Obama is appealing to everyone who has hope, and a positive outlook. We're ready to put all this shit behind us and move on and try to fix the problems and reach for our own betterment.
Those who are supporting Clinton, I believe, are the ones who just want to get back at the Republicans, or those who are still afraid of all our "enemies."
i was going to go hear him (he's on in 4 minutes), but i just got back from the dentist and i'm traumitized. i shall be first in line tomorrow though to cast my vote.
