NYC Will Become Deadhead Mecca In March For Grateful Dead Exhibit
Deadheads, book your New York City vacation now, as the New York Historical Society has announced that in March 2010, they will mount an exhibition of the Grateful Dead Archive. It will be the largest exhibition of its kind ever, and is sure to have fans breaking out their Jerry Garcia-brand ties for the occasion.
According to the official description, "Grateful Dead: Now Playing at The New York Historical Society", as the exhibitions is called, "will chronicle the history of the Grateful Dead, its music, and phenomenal longevity through an array of original art and documents related to the band, its members, performances, and productions." If you've been a hardcore fan for years, be sure to look closely at the piles of fan mail that will be exhibited, just in case you ever wondered why Phil Lesh never responded to your sincere letter asking him to play at your prom.
In honor of the announcement, the Empire State Building will sport psychedelic colors tonight. Specifically, it will be tie-dye, though we have no idea how they're accomplishing that. Still, we'll watch for it. And remember deadheads; book your trip now before all the good hotel rooms are trashed before you get to them.
