My son knows who the Grateful Dead is....

Really. He does! I too was quite surprised. So, we're at Target today and we're checking out the dollar section (my favorite section, FYI) when I came across a couple of cute items w/the Grateful Dead's dancing bears on them...one a keyring. I was going to get two but put one back when all of a sudden my son, Ian yells, "I want one please mom!" I told him "you don't need it. You don't even know who they are." "Who, mom?" he asks. "These guys? The dancing bear guys." I said, "read the keyring." "The Grateful Dead?" he replies, looking at the keyring. I then notice from the corner of my eye a woman was circling around, checking out the merchandise as well and probably waiting for Ian to answer correctly. "But who are the Grateful Dead," I asked. He replied without a single pause, "they played music at Woodstock." This woman let out a snort and laughed out loud and said "I guess you have to let him have the keyring, he answered you correctly." I was floored! I too cracked up, my silly boo. But then again, w/my obsession of Woodstock probably led him to answer the question correctly.

Let's see what he answers when I ask him what songs did they sing at Woodstock......
