There are no Jerry Garcias coming down the pike, anymore than there is a Jimi Hendrix or Bob Marley. They are all at the same level - the highest level that you strive to get to as a musician. Me and my friends - we'll all be long dead, people will still be trying to dig into what Jerry Garcia did.

My life was a complete catatrophe. I was very, very sick from drugs and alcohol.

Ideally the point of music is community, not the player. Musicians are simply channels to link the audience to the music and to each other.

There's so much excitement around the Phish tours, and if it stopped feeling that way, it would ruin everything we've done for seventeen years.

Set the gearshift for the high gear of your soul. You've got to run like an antelope, out of control.

Music has always been my protection against the world, from a very young age. I feel safe inside of a jam.
