The Grateful Dead: The Long Strange Trip
Watch the exclusive video interview with Rock Hall curatorial director Howard Kramer here.
How can a band that never had a hit single, didn’t have a flamboyant lead singer, and flouted every convention in rock and roll still manage to last 30 years and develop a fanatical following?
The exhibition The Grateful Dead: The Long Strange Trip examines this seminal American band from a number of interesting angles: the biography of the group, their songs & records, the fellow travelers who collaborated with the band, the Dead’s infamous touring legend, their fanatical fans & tapers who recorded the band and bootlegged their concerts, the art of their posters & album covers, and their totally tricked-out hi-tech gear and instruments.
The Grateful Dead: The Long Strange Trip opens Thu 4/12/12 and runs through December 2012.
