The Dead spent their day off yesterday at the Ed Sullivan Studio with an appearance on the Late Show With David Letterman. They performed a short, but very sweet, version of Sugar Magnolia.

We all know the Dead were ahead of their time but to have seen the current Wall Street crisis coming from miles away is a whole ‘nother thing. From the soon-to-be-released “Rocking the Cradle” DVD.
