Magic Is What We Do, Music Is

There Is No Dogma, There Isn't Anything About How The Universe Works.

Music Goes Way Back Before Language Does. And Music Is Like The Key To A Whole Spiritual Existence Which This Society Doesn't Even Talk About. We Know It's There. The Grateful Dead Plays At Religious Services Essentially. We Play At The Religious Services Of The New Age. Everybody Gets High, And That's What It's All About Really. Getting High Is A Lot More Real Than Listening To A Politician. You Can Think That Getting High Actually Did Happen - That You Danced, And Got Sweaty, And Carried On. It Really Did Happen. I Know When It Happens. I Know It When It Happens Every Time.

I Think That America Is In Danger Of Losing Its Adventurous Spirit In The Cause Of Some Kind Of Illusion Of Safety, Or Substitute Of Law And Order There.

We Would All Like To Be Able To Live An Uncluttered Life, A Simple Life, A Good Life.

If You Can Create A Reality That Is Entirely Fictitious, It Doesn't Owe Anything To This Stuff Out Here, But You Interact With It On Your Own Terms. I Mean, If You Took It To The Point Where Finally You Get, Say, Tactile Feedback, So You Were Wired In In Terms Of The Whole Nervous System. The Sensorium. You Would Have The Ultimate Art Form. I Mean, Any Painter Would Want It, Any Filmmaker Would Want Access To It You Know, Any Musician Would Want Access To It. It Would Eliminate The Need For The Divisions Between What We Describe As The Arts, Converting The Whole Thing To Experience.
