I traveled from NY to see Dark a Star Orchestra play here. A thunderstorm passed by earlier in the afternoon and during the concert we were able to watch as it made its way east over the prairie. During Terrapin Station the sky lite up with lightening. This was a very surreal moment because the inception of the song came from when Jerry Garcia was crossing the Golden Gate Bridge during a lightening storm and his buddy and song writer Robert Hunter was looking out his window at the Golden Gate Bridge. Jerry came up with the songs Rhythm during that car ride and Robert Hunter came up with the lyrics. When Jerry got home, the song was created. Magical.
