He was there at every show I was at. For years, it was Harry and Healey mixing the sounds that blew our minds.
I've always had a fond spot for the soundboard from Riverbend Amphitheater in Cincinnati from the 1985 Summer Tour where during the Drums>Prankster Space you can hear someone (Mickey? Billy? Jerry?) yelling "Harry! Harry!"
Hope he gets the help he needs. Nancy is right, the surviving Core 4 and the Garcia, Godchaux, and Mydland estates need to step up to the plate and help take care of their less fortunate brothers and sisters from the Grateful Dead extended family.
Dead & Co. making one of the Sphere shows a benefit for Harry would be a class act, and Bobby deserving of the sobriquet "Ace".
Yeah, judit, if Weir publicly announced he's been helping Popick out the hangers-on would come out of the woodwork to hit him up for money. I've known a few people who band members did help out in the past but it was all very hush hush for that reason.

Seriously? Just crazy that these folks that were an integral part of GDP have to resort to begging for money to deal with a health crisis.

Yeah, I'm looking at you, Bobby. Cut the guy a check.

Bobby did a fundraising show at Sweetwater for Robin Sylvester a couple of years ago, so he does have that in him. Not sure when Phil has done any.

And who's to say anyone hasn't quietly helped Harry out, as well as other old band-affiliated folks in need. It's been ongoing, it'll continue to be.
Love and healing.
