Find me (1) a Grateful Dead lyric (2) that could be a band name (3) but is not already taken by a jam band or dead tribute. Half credit if it's taken, but by a band that has nothing to do with the De

lol overlong title -- was supposed to say "Half credit if it's taken, but by a band that has nothing to do with the Dead or jam bands. Also, post links to the ones that turn out to be bands.

Bloom and Decay -- not sure if this is actually the band's name or not though, and it's "progressive metal"

there's a band called 'garcia peoples' that claim it's not a reference to jerry but then sing about journeying into a dark star and shit, i just needed to share that with someone because it's been weighing on me and my twitter followers are probably sick of hearing about them

Some Rise Some Fall would be a good name for a metalcore band.

According to Jerry, it's Nut-thatch, maybe that one is taken?

May I introduce you to my humorous country-rock combo, Come Quick with the Iodine

Garcia Peoples are really great though, I like their new album a lot. But yeah, there's no way that's not a Jerry reference.

total aside, but I have this idea for an illustration of that lyric showing a guy with a thought bubble and in the thought bubble is a nuthatch wearing shades and resting in a beach chair on a beach with a sign that says "Welcome to Boca Raton, Fla" behind him

I think there might already be a band called "Utter Shit"

"Roll Away the Dew"

Probably could cause problems.
