kanda, would the mispelling have remained if the writer did not decide to ensconce himself in an inpenetrable cocoon of cereal and hair mousse? Could the "Marshmellows" really be a new life form sprung from industrial waste in the swamps of Jersey? Perhaps banjo-playing muskrats? A form of bird that rather than fly, just sits back and listens to bootleg Dead tapes all day? And not a bootleg of a single show, but a compilation tape of "Uncle John's Band" played on 17 different nights? What if the Marshmellow is sitting there listening to the "Los Angeles, August 1983, night 5" version of "Uncle John's Band" and is too wrapped up in the general mellowness of the whole situation to realize that the tide is coming in and ends up drowning? I just don't know. Tom
