One night, Garcia played the Close Encounters theme, and fuck me if aliens didn’t show up.
(Sincerely, though: I love everything about this picture.)
Musings on the Most Ridiculous Band I Can't Stop Listening To
Sometimes, Mrs. Donna Jean liked to put on a kimono and easy skank.
Sometimes, Bobby and Garcia would join her. Not the kimono thing, though not from lack of trying on Bobby’s part. Garcia had to tackle him right before he got on the stage one night: Bobby was in the full M. Butterfly costume, with the little lips and the giant hair and the wooden shoes; he could only take four or five steps at a time without toppling over, anyway.
“No, Bobby! This band won’t be a party to your cultural appropriation!” Garcia said. “Check your privilege!”
“I won’t! I won’t check my privilege,” Bobby spat.
“You check that privilege, Mister. And give me the slide.”
Mrs. Donna Jean didn’t twerk, nor did she back that thang up. Didn’t have much of a thang, to be honest about it.
No belly shirts, certainly not thongs. Although: maybe thongs; Mrs. Donna Jean wore her underwear under her clothes. She was not ratchet.
But yet she was no basic bitch: Mrs. Donna Jean left a scorched Earth of crashed luxury cars, empty pill bottles of horse tranquilizer, and flowy patterned skirts.
And she did it backwards, in heels.
Mrs. Donna Jean was a rock star in the 70’s, which is the most rock star that rock stars ever got. She didn’t sleep with Bobby: Bobby slept with her.
