Grateful Dead on QVC
Forums:
A little backstory:
About 20 years ago, in a different profession and life, I had a gig bringing products from concept to on-air sale on QVC. I was down at their offices in West Chester meeting with buyers from different departments. One buyer commented on my Jerry tie, and we started talking about PL&F. She said her husband was on some innerwebz community, which turned out to be the Zone. Small world.
A little while later an got a CD in the mail. The Zoner sent me a tape of when Big Steve and Dick Latvala we're on QVC. I had t thought about that in years, but just Googled it. The first 10 minutes is kind of hilarious. Check it out: https://youtu.be/V_9ZNsbJedk

I guess if the best you can be is a glorified roadie for life, you take what you can get.
What a legacy.

I remember seeing that when it was originally aired.
A little different than selling the music out of ice cream trucks ala Ron Rakow.

I guess he was Garcia's road manager, as much as that road could be managed.

The first time I saw Parrish
The first time I saw Parrish was in 1969 (my first GD show) when he was throwing a random stage-crasher out the back door onto the railroad tracks.
I'm pretty sure he's still that guy.

I scrolled through about a minute of it. That was more than enough for me.
