The Deadhead Ranch at Hummingbird Hollow

10/27/2024

Good Sunday morning Grateful Dead Forever fans and greetings from The Deadhead Ranch at Hummingbird Hollow. After grieving about the passing of Phil Lesh, we've decided to celebrate Phil's musical genius, passion, lunacy and leadership. One of our favorite memories of Phil was him doing something that rarely happens... Singing. No, it wasn't Box of Rain or Unbroken Chain. It was in Chicago at the 50th Anniversary shows at Soldier Field. The Fare Thee Well version of the band played Terrapin Station. Phil was the singer and it was a moving tribute to Jerry. His heartfelt performance touched everyone. That was Phil's gift and our blessing.

Like all Deadheads, The Deadhead Ranch at Hummingbird Hollow is in mourning today. The passing of Phil Lesh is so sad. Losing a member of the Grateful Dead Forever Family is never easy. His beaming smile and playful energy always warmed our hearts. Phil was a genius and added so much to the Dead's freedom of the jam. His thunderous base riff 'at the beginning of the "Other One " was a rocketship rush. A "Box of Rain' is one of our favorite songs and Robert Hunter's powerful lyrics encouraged us to live our lives with passion and purpose. His words said it all. " Such a long long time to be gone and a short time to be there." RIP Phil We know there's a Second Set waiting for you and Jerry Standing on the Moon,

Drums and Space has always been one of our favorite parts of Being a DeadHead and going to shows. The free form jam is always a highlight of the second set. It’s one of the many reasons we're big fans of Mickey Hart at The Deadhead Ranch at Hummingbird Hollow and his many artistic talents. Aside from his passion for percussion, he is a man of many talents and global vision. Have you seen his artwork? His paintings are available for purchase on Ebay and online.

Did you watch the documentary, Rhythm Masters: A Mickey Hart Experience, last night on ESPN? You have check it out. It was an awe-inspiring look into the power and possibilities of Drums and Space. We hosted an intimate Watch Party at The Deadhead Ranch at Hummingbird Hollow in Visit Palestine, Texas featuring some tasty Texas Foodie Adventures. This fantastic film looked into the close relationship between rhythm and sports. "The space of Now" is the pathway to great athletic achievement. This groundbreaking movie was dedicated to Mickey's best friend, the late, great and tallest Deadhead ever, Bill Walton.

In "Rhythm Masters," the legendary drummer creates an original score inspired by sports icons.

While we're only 10 percent of the population, we love our left-handed legacy at The Deadhead Ranch at Hummingbird Hollow. According to multiple sources, left-handed people are more creative and intuitive. Our lefty legions include Michelangelo, Raphael, Leonardo Da Vinci, Renoir, Benjamin Franklin and countless Deadheads. Four of the five original developers of the Macintosh computer were lefties. When it comes to their careers, lefthanders with a college degree earn up to 26 percent more than their right-handed peers.
