"Please to silence the appearance of elitist Dead. Equally reprehensible to the stain on our house from the entrance of Metallica/mall world, Deader than thou as it were. That there is interest in one of the most interesting of vehicles is a good thing, as opposed to the peripheral (see tie-dyes, oxygen to brain depriving balloon and their attendant hissy tanks, my particular rallying point for the decline of dead world, and bongs until stupid, amen.)"

Yes, that entry struck me when I read the thread - though surely the Dead's own problem was that they weren't elitist enough.
