Can I still call myself a Deadhead even though I never saw Jerry live? I'll be graduating from college at the end of April and plan to start my thru hike @ Harpers Ferry in the beginning of May. I'd love to link up with some like minded individuals while I'm on the AT and could possibly even re-supply some of you boys who will have been hiking for a couple of months by the time I get out there. You guys should PM me so we can exchange contact info before you take off for sure. I plan to cut off my eight-year-old red dreadlocks before I start my hike so I'll be a little more difficult to recognize by then...
... As far as the best dead song for hiking goes: gonna have to go with The Golden Road
nothin left to do but smile smile smile......best song depends on the weather
1990, ...DeadAhead thru hiked NOBO...don't remember if he made it the whole way but he went far.
He had an external frame pack with WOODEN framed speakers approximately 10" x 7" mounted to the upper corners of the frame and carried 30-40 GD cassette tapes to play in his walkman. He used alot of batteries but listened EVERYDAY while hiking.
Nice guy and always happy.

I for one get a much needed shot of adrenaline from JGB's After Midnight>Eleanor Rigby>After Midnight.
I've got that 2.28.80 version on my MP3 player. Classic!

One of my fonder memories is when I was hiking on the PCT and stopped at a surprise spring and there were these other hikers there and one of them had a ukulele and he starts playing Friend of The Devil and since I'd been out on the trail so long without any music or anything it just sounded so wonderful. The most amazing music I ever heard. I'm not a "deadhead" but I was one at that moment.
Some knew me as Piper, others as just Diane.
I hiked the PCT: Mexico to Mt. Shasta, 2008. Santa Barbara to Canada, 2009.
what could be better than walking thru america, listening to europe'72?China Cat>I know you rider
I saw them their 25th Aniversary tour in Buffalo....CSN opened..Good times!
