1990 documentary by the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, featuring sociologist Rebecca Adams, PhD, who examines Deadhead subculture through a theoretical framework based on the ideas of social theorist Georg Simmel. Aired on PBS in the early 90s.
This documentary explores the Deadhead phenomenon. For thirty years, Jerry Garcia played guitar and sang for the Grateful Dead, and by doing so, inspired a modern cultural phenomenon: the legions of nomadic fans that made a communal way of life out of following Jerry and the Dead, the Deadheads.
