“I want to be a vampire for the Halloween

Let’s get straight to the point today. There are Halloween people and there are not Halloween people. You know the type, the ones that plan their costumes weeks in advance, some even starting the day after last Halloween. Some people just get really turned on by this holiday. I am not one of those people, although I do kind of like the idea that women can get away with wearing whatever they want on this day, no matter how short or low cut and nobody can say a damn thing ‘cause it’s Halloween. God bless ‘em. Sometimes, I still miss college. Just as an example, I went to ask my office buddy what his one year old son was dressing as and he replied with a smile…”Superman”. So to be nice, I asked what his 16 year old daughter was dressing as and he said, ”probably some damn pole dancer.” Sorry I digress. We just never really got into it in my family…maybe because we’re Jewish and our Halloween is Purim which usually falls out around march. Kind of the same. Not really. You get to dress up, play tricks, and get a bunch of candy. But it’s not scary.

Looks Like Rain -> Jam - Grateful Dead
3.28.85 - Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale, NY1985 is one of my favorite Dead years, and with good cause. It is one of the last years to find all members still reasonably on top of their skills, creating truly innovative and interesting improv, and the sets featured a wide variety of material. This 16 minute Looks Like Rain features a really great jam.
Enjoy this as well as some great picks from April and June of 1985. We’ll revisit this year later in the summer with some more choice picks.

What is The Butter Room?
The Butter Room was built to spread and discuss live music. The contributors of this site all volunteer their time to provide the content. We do this as a labor of love. Our name, The Butter Room, references an small, low-lit room in a Virginia Tech Fraternity with nothing but a few benches and tables. You go there to get away from all distractions and have a conversation, which is what we want to foster here: a place where you can get away from all the distractions of life to enjoy and discuss live music.
