A slice of the Dead's long-ago abandoned repertoire emerged to much delight on Saturday as the band ripped through a near-studio quality "Born Cross-eyed," a jumble of vocal hairpin turns the Dead almost never played.
And while the music has all the Dead's bombast and psychedelic power, The Other Ones still have only the Dead's songs, which means for now they're a Grateful Dead cover band of the highest possible order - and not much more.
However, their apparent new appreciation for rehearsing - a practice the Dead despised - might just hatch a batch of new songs to freshen up their sets and keep them on the road for many years to come.

 St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture: The Grateful Dead
The Grateful Dead, with its notorious founding member Jerry Garcia, was a band that epitomized the psychedelic era of American rock 'n' roll music from the 1960s to the 1990s.
The grounding of the Grateful Dead in the American folk tradition contradicts its image as a corrupt purveyor of hallucinatory drugs, but their roots can also be traced to free-spirited Ken Kesey's Merry Pranksters and Beat figures like Neal Cassady.
Some of the Grateful Dead's first concerts were known as the Acid Tests of the San Francisco Bay area where psychedelic music, visuals, and hippies all came together as harbingers of the raves of the 1990s and the Dead's concerts between the 1970s and the 1990s.

On one hand, there's some agreement that the film -- full title "George A. Romero's Land of the Dead" -- is pretty basic: Zombies have taken over most of the world and they'll capture the rest unless a group of survivors can fight back.
Since "Land" comes from a director who critiqued conformity with 1968's "Night of the Living Dead," commercialism with 1978's "Dawn of the Dead" and the entire military-industrial complex with 1985's "Day of the Dead," part of the fun is figuring out what the movie's really about.
While "Dawn of the Dead" found satire in an economy fueled by superfluous consumer goods, "Land" comes down hard on the people with the power in that kind of economy.
