On New Year’s Eve, 1963, 16-year-old Weir and another underage friend were wandering the back alleys of Palo Alto, looking for a club that would admit them, when they heard banjo music. They followed the music to its source, Dana Morgan’s Music Store. Here, a young Jerry Garcia, oblivious to the date, was waiting for his students to arrive.
Weir and Garcia spent the night playing music together and then decided to form a band. The Beatles significantly influenced their musical direction. “The Beatles were why we turned from a jug band into a rock ‘n’ roll band,” said Bob Weir. “What we saw them doing was impossibly attractive. I couldn’t think of anything else more worth doing.” Originally called Mother McCree’s Uptown Jug Champions, the band was later renamed The Warlocks and eventually the Grateful Dead.
