This song is about 2 things. The underlying theme is a salute or homage to Jerry Garcia (Greatful Dead frontman). He uses dead head lingo talking of "tie-dyed skies" and "dark star" to paint a beautiful dream sequence. The other part is related to how although he didn't know Jer-Bear, he and many of his friends were heavily influenced by the Dead. He talks about Jones Beach which, as the story goes, is where he first learned of Gerry's death. This is a sad topic that has been made into a truly moving song. |
