Bobby "speaks up" for at least 20 seconds
Forums:
... on Throwing Stones @ 3:30
Have never seen him so animated, full on ferocious facial expression - complete with spit.

The "angry political ranting
The "angry political ranting"is precisely what has always turned me off about this song. Pretty much the last thing I ever wanted to hear at a Dead, or any other, show.
Does Bob include himself when he whines about "rich men in their summer homes", or is he talking about Bernie Sanders?

thom, i might not agree with
thom, i might not agree with every sentiment in the song, but i think its pretty sad that you cant see past your partisan ideology long enough to appreciate a passionate piece of art that speaks to issues humans have been dealing with for millenia and how they fit into our modern culture in relatively apolitical, vague terms.

Just listened to it again and
Just listened to it again and another thought struck me: while he's certainly notorious for botching lyrics, when he's "on" he's very fluent and even forceful at times in his delivery; however, if you listen to him telling a story off stage, it's often very subdued and follows a quirky (in a good way) disjointed manner of speaking. I find it interesting how there's a distinct dichotomy in his delivery.
