There were many times during our career when he could've quit and done something else. But he knew that his power was with the Grateful Dead. He didn't want to go solo. Jerry was a groupist. He loved to group.

When I heard Grateful Dead music, I knew that it was the most powerful force on the planet.

When the Grateful Dead needed a quality sound system to deliver our sonic payload, I learned electronics and speaker design.

Yeah, I miss the Grateful Dead. I miss that groove. I miss the brotherhood. Absolutely. There's no doubt about it.

The Grateful Dead were very kind. It was Santa Claus. It did good things. It allowed other people to benefit. The benefits that we played were enormous, and we played free. So you've got a band that loves to play free, and that was a wonderful thing.

We weren't by any means like the Grateful Dead or something, who could just roll on and on and on.
