What started as a conversation about Bob Weir and RatDog turned into one of the most personal stories we've ever captured.In this episode of Only in the Green Room, drummer Jay Lane shares what it was like joining Bob Weir and Rob Wasserman despite knowing very little about the Grateful Dead, learning songs from Heaven Help the Fool, navigating unpredictable RatDog setlists, and witnessing Bob's determination to keep creating after Jerry Garcia's passing.Then the conversation takes an unexpected turn.Jay opens up about his own adoption story, his remarkable adoptive mother, Mary D. Lane, and discovering his biological mother, prior to his birth, had a daughter with acclaimed jazz bassist Donald Rafael Garrett. As the story unfolds Jay pieces together a long-hidden mosaic of family, music, and coincidence, sharing how deeply his life had been intertwined with San Francisco's legendary music scene long before he ever knew it.This is a story about music, identity, family, mentorship, and the incredible coincidences that can shape a life.If you enjoy authentic conversations with the artists behind the music, please Like, Subscribe, and share this episode.#OnlyInTheGreenRoom #JayLane #BobWeir #RatDog #GratefulDead #AdoptionStory #MusicPodcast #BehindTheMusic#SweetwaterMusicHall #David Nelson, #Ramblin' Jack Elliott, #Lorin Rowan, #Matt Jaffe, #Matty Michna, #Jay Lane# Barry Sless, #Jason Crosby, #Samson Grisman#Bobby & The Midnites - I Want To Live In America 1984 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWscxdleZzIYouTube: @inmotion68"Not Fade Away" - Bob Weir and Wolf Bros | 8/25/2019 | LOCKN' 2019 | Relix YouTube: @RelixMaghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfnfGM77Ob8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wdteIsK1qUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6a-A7gP9Mc

Bob Weir passed away just over a month ago. He was a giant in the world of American roots music. A founding member of the Grateful Dead, after Jerry Garcia's death he went on the play with RatDog, Dead & Company, and of course Bob Weird and Wolf Bros. His musical legacy is unparalleled and his tunes will live on! In this episode we take a look at three songs he wrote; Truckin', Sugar Magnolia, and Touch of Grey. RIP Bob Weir! 

 Honoring Bob Weir 1947-2026    This week on the Deadpod I want to conclude my presentation of the Ratdog performance that took place back on November 2, 2000 in Columbia Missouri.  I'll let the music speak for itself, and hope that you enjoy this recording. I was lucky enough to meet Bob and the band this evening and the show has always had a place in my heart.  Fare thee well, Ace.     Bob Weir & Ratdog  The Blue Note, Columbia Missouri 11/2/2000 - Thursday set 2: West L.A.

     RIP Bob Weir 1947-2026 The passing of Bob Weir this last week brought us all shock and sadness. Speaking for myself I wasn't ready for Ace to be gone, and I know it will hurt for a long time. Since there there have appeared countless tributes and appreciations for his talent, character and life. I won't try to add another one here. What I've decided on is to present to you this week a show that meant alot to me, that took place back when I was doing a Grateful Dead show on KOPN radio in Columbia Missouri. This show took place in an intimate venue called the Blue Note in Columbia Missouri back on November 2nd, 2000. We were thrilled to have Ratdog come to our town, and to be playing across the street from our station. I think they put on a great show and I decided to play that here on the Deadpod in its entirety this week and next as my remembrance of Bob. I hope you enjoy it.  Bob Weir and Ratdog The Blue Note, Columbia Missouri 11/2/2000 - Thursday Set 1:   Blackbird The Winners When I Paint My Masterpiece Playin' In the Band I Need A Miracle * Little Red Rooster * All Over Now * Odessa *w/Johnnie Johnson-without Jeff Chimenti   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod011626.mp3   Here's a picture of  Bob and myself after that show:
