David Gans - Feeling Grateful

We’re honored this week to have the one and only David Gans as our guest as part of our series heading up to Skull And Roses Festival! David s the co-author of the book Playing in the Band: An Oral and Visual Portrait of the Grateful Dead, and the host of the weekly syndicated radio show The Grateful Dead Hour, and he currently co-hosts a radio show with Gary Lambert on Sirius XM's The Grateful Dead Channel called Tales from the Golden Road. David talks with us about seizing the opportunities the scene placed before him, being a journalist turned musician, never meaning to end up where he is now, and being grateful for all of it, and a whole lot more. Listen to David on Sirius/XM’s Grateful Dead Channel and head over to www.dgans.com for tour news and more!
