Re: Satan,Black Magic And The Grateful Dead |
It was somewhere there in the post bottle period, that it seems his personality, changed ( from what little evidence I know) . Age takes the piss out of some of us( some the opposite !), but he does seemed to "mellowed", at least in his public persona , over the years . Remember the Anthem memo , and listen to his stage comments ( say, up to mid 70's) sometimes you get the feel of a pretty arrogant guy . .Yep, the "higher power" thing , is the common way in AA, So maybe quitting the sauce, add wife & kid , brought him to "God", however Phil means it . He certainly seems like a nice guy these day, anyway .
Screw that loony tune, with his child cooking stories .

Oh yeah, I didn't even look at it...
And couldn't agree more on Phil--great guy.
It's pretty common, in my experience, for folks to be relatively "areligious" in youth (at least during the 60s thru to today), then move into a "what does it all mean?" phase with family/death/etc, and find a new answer for them, in whatever form it takes...
Now that you two have mentioned it, I can recall hearing him say it in the past ten yrs in one context or another.
