The Grateful Dead, will reunite on Monday for the first time in four years to rally support for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.
Band leader Jerry Garcia died in 1995 and since then surviving members have played together occasionally, most recently in 2004. On Monday, original members Mickey Hart, Phil Lesh and Bob Weir will play at a San Francisco theater a day before California's primary.
"They have agreed to reunite for this one-time-only event in order to lend support to Senator Obama leading into the crucial 'Super-Tuesday' series of primaries held on Tuesday, February 5th," the band said in a statement.
Obama is on his way to secure the dirty hippie jam band crowd.
Is that OneF?
