Description
From an insider who has been there from the beginning - the untold true story of life on the road with the Grateful Dead. Home Before Daylight is a powerfully-written story of friendship, music and redemption that is filled with all the tales that fans could wish for - anecdotes of memorable shows, encounters with famous (and infamous) people, and the sometimes insane life on the road with a band that toured and partied, and lived and loved like no other band in history. It is a rare slice of music history and a revealing look at America's most legendary rock 'n' roll band. Seen through the eyes of a man who lived the dream, from roadie to manager; the Dead's wild ride has never been so compelling.
