Bob Weir & Phil Lesh - Weir Here, TRI Studios, San Rafael, CA, 3-13-2013 Last month, January 2026, Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead died. He was 78 years old. I've already posted a couple of things to celebrate his musical legacy, but I want to post another one. In 2012, Weir opened up his own music studio, called Tamalpais Research Institute Studios, or TRI Studios for short. In 2012 and 2013, he hosted about a dozen concerts in this studio, which were broadcast on the Internet. Generally speaking, he performed acoustic in front of a very small audience, with different guests each episode. I found this episode the most interesting, because his main guest this time was Phil Lesh, the long-time bassist for the Grateful Dead. After Jerry Garcia died in 1995 and the Dead broke up, Weir and Lesh did perform sometimes, for instance in the band the Other Ones. But they almost never performed together in acoustic mode, especially in a studio setting like this. All the songs performed were originally done by the Grateful Dead. Some other people took part in this concert as well. For the first four songs, it was just Weir and Lesh as a duo, with Lesh coming in halfway through the first song. Then, for tracks 5, 6, and 7, they were joined by Jason Crosby and Joe Russo. For the last song, "Friend of the Devil," Lesh left and was replaced by Cass McCombs. I'm not sure who sings lead vocals on a couple of songs, such as "Operator," but it wasn't Weir. If you can tell, please let us know. Twice, between songs, the band members stopped playing and had an extension discussion amongst themselves. All that talking has less relistening value for me. So I took those two discussions and put them at the end as optional bonus tracks. When I found this on YouTube, I did my usual thing of converting the video to audio format, and chopping it into mp3s. I was surprised that I haven't seen it shared as audio files, even though it seems everything Dead-related gets shared that way. So hopefully it can spread around now. This album is an hour and three minutes long. 01 Sugar Magnolia (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 02 Cosmic Charlie (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 03 Loose Lucy (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 04 Jack Straw (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 05 Operator (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 06 Lazy River Road (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 07 Playing in the Band (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 08 talk (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 09 Friend of the Devil (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) 10 talk (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) Discussion 1 (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) Discussion 2 (Bob Weir & Phil Lesh) https://pixeldrain.com/u/pbTUdbF6 alternate: https://bestfile.io/en/c9mqDtoSUMBgZ42/file The cover photo is from this exact concert.

There's a strong message of divine righteousness in dictatorships. Every megalomaniac has to believe his actions are sanctioned by God.”
― Eric Gamalinda, The Descartes Highlands

“If a nation is leaving democracy and choosing fascism, it means that it is taking itself from a peaceful garden to a bloody slaughter house!”
― Mehmet Murat ildan

In dictatorships the media is controlled by the State. In democracies the media is controlled by wealthy individuals with political affiliations. Objective media and journalists simply do not exist in the mainstream.”
― Robert Black

Laws become fragile under the influence of dictators.”
― Wayne Gerard Trotman

Dictators are not in the business of allowing elections that could remove them from their thrones.”
― Gene Sharp, From Dictatorship to Democracy

"From weakness that people reach for dictators and concentrated government power. Only the strong can be free." – Wendell Willkie

The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish." – Charlie Chaplin

“Liberty cannot be preserved without a general knowledge among the people, who have a right … and a desire to know.”
—John Adams, 1765

A government of laws, and not of men." – John Adams.

“Nowadays, a network of tweets can unleash a global awareness campaign. A Facebook page can become the hub of a massive mobilization...And this raises a question: As digital technology makes things easier for movements, why haven't successful outcomes become more likely as well?” —Zeynep Tufekci

“When citizens of nominally democratic governments protest in the streets they are performing the foundational myth of democracy: the faith that the people possess ultimate sovereignty over their governments.

"Power always depends for its strength and existence upon a replenishment of its sources by the cooperation of numerous institutions and people – cooperation that does not have to continue." —Gene Sharp, theorist of non-violent resistance & founder of the Albert Einstein Institute

The people have the power. All we have to do is awaken the power in the people.”

— John Lennon
