Today we tip our stash jar to Bob Weir—celebrated in his hometown of San Francisco and across the world. And it feels like the perfect moment to honor the deep, hazy overlap between Weir’s iconic band, the Grateful Dead and the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers.
Back in 1978, the Dead tapped Freak Brothers creator Gilbert Shelton to illustrate the cover art for their 10th studio album, Shakedown Street—a perfect collision of psychedelia, satire, and street-level wisdom.
He may not have been named Phineas, Freddy, or Franklin… but make no mistake—Bob was absolutely a Freak Brother.
Light one up for Bobby today. ✌️
