Certainly they are the weirdest, black satanic weird and white archangel weird. As weird as anything you can imagine, like some horror comic monster who, besides being green and slimy, happens also to have seven different heads, a 190 IQ, countless decibels of liquid fire noise communications, and is coming right down to where you are to gobble you up. But if you can dig the monster, bammo, he's [a] giant puppy to play with. Grateful Dead weird, ultimately, and what an image that name is." <br /><br />(A.B. Skhy, Country Weather, Commander Cody, and Wildflower are also announced on the bill. The description is a direct quote from the August '69 Rolling Stone article on the Dead, but it's certainly a colorful way to introduce them.)
