Description: For 30 years, Jerry Garcia played guitar and sang for the Grateful Dead, and by doing so, inspired a modern cultural phenomenon the legions of nomadic fans that made a communal way of life out of following Jerry and the Dead the Deadheads. The End of the Road began shooting just 3 months before Garcias Death in 1995 documenting life on the road with this family of bohemian wanderers on what would be the final tour with Jerry and the Dead. That summer the road came to an end back where it all began in San Francisco where thousands gathered one last time for eulogies from bandmates, friends and family at the memorial for Jerry Garcia.
