Hi,
So, I rented and watched Festival Express this weekend. It was great. Amazing to see Jerry and the guys young and vital again. I couldn't get over how young Bob Weir was in this film. Janis Joplin and The Band's performances were spellbinding as well. In one scene Pigpen is playing the harmonica and singing. It started us talking, I read in one GD tome that Pigpen was "clean" that he didn't do drugs, I assume he was a drinker because of his cause of death. Does anyone know if this it true?
