Well, I don't have any inside info regarding this rumor, but based on available evidence, I'd have to say it's a bunch of unkosher bologna. I called the hotline today and there was a brand new message announcing a bunch of new shows, including - no - it can't be - 3 more Oakland shows! Also, some Jerry Band shows in the Bay Area and also another acoustic Jerry show! It's not likely they wouuld make these announcements if, in fact, Jerry was visiting Pigpen and Keith in Rock and Roll Heaven. It's also quite obvious that I'm living on the wrong coast! -- "Just cause they say it, don't mean that it's so" Seth Jackson
